Holy shit!!!

Raw last night was probably the best raw in like a decade or more!!

Rock is just on a different level

amazing!!

love reigns but it seems rock is the true end of the story now and reigns just a chapter.

the final boss character is truely something special

Yeah that was probably their best show in a long time/ I think I'm going to try and find a reasonable cheap ticket on stubhub or somewhere for both Wrestlemania nights.

So far Mercedes Moné's signing has not helped AEW's ratings

I was never really a fan of hers. She was my least favorite out of the four horsewomen.

AEW needs MJF back ASAP!

Anyone watch the Bray Wyatt documentary on Peacock? Pretty cool behind the scenes footage and also very emotional. The Undertaker narrated it, Bo Dallas was obviously shown a lot as well. I'm thinking him and Alexa Bliss might return on the RAW after Mania.

Giulia is at WWE World for Wrestlemania week. I wonder if she shows up at Mania

Paul Heyman didn't disappoint

My Wrestlemania XL predictions.

Night one:

Rhea Ripley over Becky Lynch

Awesome Truth and DIY win (each one wins a separate belt) Could possibly see New Catch Republic win as well

Dominik Mysterio and Santos Escobar beat Rey Mysterio and Andrade (Carlito turns on Rey)

Jey Uso beats Jimmy Uso (Tama Tonga helps by neutralizing Solo Sikoa)

Jade Cargil, Bianca Belair and Naomi beat Damage CTRL

Sami Zayn beats Gunther (this one is tough to call, Chad Gable is either gonna help Sami or screw him over)

The Rock and Roman Reigns beat Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins

Night Two:

Drew McIntyre beats Seth Rollins (I think Damian Priest cashes in afterwards though)

Bobby Lashley and The Street Profits beat Karion Kross and AOP (could go wither way, this might be the bathroom break match)

LA Knight beats AJ Styles

Logan Paukl beats Randy Orton and Kevin Owens

Bayley beats Iyo Sky

Cody Rhodes beats Roman Reigns to finally finish his story

Wrestlemania week. Didn't say Wrestlemania. Although who knows?

Peacock ran a $30 for the year promo back during the NFL playoffs. Worth every penny tonight! My first live WM in years.

I went last night (found a ticket on stubhub for like $170 behind the stage (so not the best view). It was fun. Best match was probably Sami vs Gunther. The main event was pretty entertaining. I was surprised of how over Rhea Ripley was compared to Becky Lynch. From where I was it seemed like it was 2:1 fans for Rhea. Also cool to see Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson make an appearance. I thought Kelce might show up but wasn't expecting it be in the "luchador" match. The only match i was kinda disappointed in was the Uso vs Uso match. Kinda a letdown, storytelling was fine but the match itself was meh. The ladder match was good. Gotta love R-Truth! Some good spots in there as well.

I'm probably not going to go tonight. One night was fine and although night 2 will most likely be better, I just don't think it's within my budget now. Luckily yesterday I found parking for free so I saved like $50-70 there. And only got a hot dog, pretzel and a bottle of was which was like $25. Was tempted to grab a Wrestlemania shirt but the lines were kinda long and wasn't sure whicjh one I wanted to get.

Ok.  I'm drinking the paul levesque Kool aid.  That was the best wwe show I've seen in 20 years

eeriepadave

That was one hell of a main event! Rock, Cena and Undertaker getting involved. I thought Austin was gonna show up, but Undertaker was a nice surprise as well.

JimmyV

Lot of regrets in life. Watching 8 hours of wrestling over these last two nights ain't gonna be one of them. That was an awesome show.

Hogan is still the 3rd longest reign. I was concerned he would be passed

Who else thought Dean Ambrose was going to show up when The Shield music came on?

No. If any AEW personnel was gonna be there I would have thought Dustin or MJF. Mox has no desire to return to WWE.Plus they're all signed with AEW so that wouldn't have been too wise if any of them showed up.

I know. It was just a split second. Lot of people on Twitter thought the same

I even loved the first match.  It was good, good ending.  I totally bought CM Punk's arm splice and was wondering earlier if they were going to transition him to a Jesse Ventura heel announcer role.  

Then that whole thing was done perfectly.  Loved it.
