WRESTLEMANIA 35 POST SHOW DISCUSSION

[FluffSnackwell]

Triple H really skimped on the full-on Immortan Joe prosthetics. Aces N' Eights biker ski mask is a serious downgrade from past glorious Masters of The Universe cosplay headpieces.

7 pages and the show is only 6 hours old

Why do you all hate sleep?

Hey, I work nights, this is the time I'm always awake.

Not sure if you've noticed but I have weird hours in general. I usually go to sleep just around now or 20-30 minutes later.

I skimmed and didn’t see it so I apologize if it was already said

There are some folks claiming that they have WWE sources who claim that the finish was actually supposed to be Becky getting Ronda to tap.

Its no one I recognize or trust but I figured I would mention it

[Jamal]

My favorite moment of the night had to be the win for the IIconics. I’ve been a fan of Billie’s since her days in the Indies so it’s cool to see them finally get this moment to shine. Plus, it was probably one of the most unexpected outcomes of the night.

Wait until Dave Meltzer sees Hawkins holding his belt while watching this match.  He will probably call him a loser who takes it all to seriously and shit all over him.

Quick Bonus watch:

 

Spoiler

The young cool professor of abnormal psychology at an Italian university in a Lucio Fulci movie who is consulted to help Christopher George find a serial killer but turns out to be the one cutting up coeds because his mom's boyfriend mangled his groin area when he was 8 in a satanic ritual to re-animate Mussolini.

I'm big enough to eat my crow, I didn't think they'd do the face clean sweep, but they did.  Good show overall, but way to damn long.  

[Hagan]

So, does anyone think the finish was a botch? I don’t see it. This looks similar to a lot of Lesnar angles where they’re continuing weird worked/shoot stuff with finishes.

[J.T.]

Overall, I was fairly happy with the show.  Most of the people that should've gone over went over.

Avengers: Endgame will be a three hour movie that won't feel like a three hour movie.

WM was a PPV that was only a few hours in length and felt like it lasted for weeks.

MVP and Shad Gaspard with the feels.

You are all better than me!  I tapped out after the Kofi/Bryan match and from the looks of it, didn’t miss much.  The crowd was really into that, which was good to see

[steve]

A few random scattered thoughts:

- AJ/Orton was really good for me, especially loved the RKO counters.

- The SD tag was very solid as well, and Rusev and Nak's coordinated gear looked clean.

- Pleasently surprised IIconics go the win.

- Happy for Kofi.

- I laughed when this popped up in my timeline right as Cena was coming out --

- I felt really bad for Dave when he tripped getting in the ring. 

- The Demon finally felt different than Finn Balor. Stuff like the scissors kick and the powerbomb, just sprinkled in here and there, that was a cool little thing late in the show (and the night) to re-energize me for the main.

- That bump Ronda took to the floor looked nasty.

[COLETTI]

I watched from the beginning of the pre-show all the way until Becky was handed both belts. I feel like I've leveled up or should have unlocked some sort of PlayStation trophy. All my thanks go to the 11 Miller High Lifes.

This is when I went to bed too and honestly it made it a perfect PPV this way

Mostly enjoyable wrestling with a great Main Event

I'm just relieved because I thought this would take me to the youtube of a morbidly obese guy calling himself NJ Transit blading the shit out of himself in protest of Kurt Angle not winning.

Per Meltzer - they didn't change the match order (meaning Brock/Seth starting) until after the kickoff show started. 

Dave specifically said it happened at 5:30 PM

In fact - they forgot to tell Hogan and that is why he was baffled when Heyman came out

[ChesterCopperpot]

And also Ronda broke her hand during the ME (or went into the match with a broken hand)

Fuck Hogan.  lol.  I wonder when Brock/Seth was supposed to go on.  I liked the show, but it I was spent after Kofi-DBryan.  The HHH tribute hour was awful.  I'll rewatch after that because I didn't really enjoy it as I wanted to go to bed/was falling asleep.  Also....Elias was pretty awesome.

They want Ronda on Sports Center.

They want Ronda on GMA.

[tbarrie]

Maybe I missed something, but... seven pages and nobody wondering WTF was up with Cena showing up as the Doctor of Thuganomics? Did I imagine that? Because that would only raise further questions.
