well the show started with miz, lashley, sheamus and mcintyre all going on about fast lane and well that incited the first match between mcintyre and miz

the match between miz and mcintyre was good, esp at end when mcinture claymored miz but wouldn't pin but sending a message to lashley that he used his full nelson on miz and tapped him out. nice

lana and naomi vs mandy and dana, the match was OK, mandy and dana won

hurt business vs the new day tag championship match, well with a shock of a twist new day won the titles yes but that wasn't over, aj styles and omos came out and challenged them for the titles at WM and new day accepted

shane vs strowman, well this one was happening since last week, shane held his own here and ridiculed strowman wow

asuka vs shayna, match was good, asuka won though shayna didn't let go of her grip but later shayna wanted to damage asuka more but asuka was in defense mode and instead took shayna out of the ring

ali vs riddle for the us championship match, good match both were good but riddle was better and defended the championship quite nicely

lashley vs sheamus ohh man this match was sooo good. both gave it their all and no interruptions, mcintyre was at the ringside watching and well lashley came outon top but latermcintyre entered the ring to stop further damage to sheamus from lashley. good stuff

looks like seth and nakamura got each other in a fight soon

mysterios defeated street profits in a tag match but later alpha academy defeated mysterios in a tag match

daniel bryan was out in the ring addressing whats next and fast lane than out comes roman and heyman, man roman was pissed and didnt think much of daniel but good talk

king corbin vs sami zayn was ok match, later on sami went on a rage and got all on Kevin owens. so once again sami vs KO in the future :S

during bianca and shaynas match, tamina and natalya interfered which led to a no contest.

edge vs jey uso, winner is special referree at this sundays roman vs daniel match, edge won and he will be the referre but after roman came and speared edge in turn later daniel came in the ring but was attacked by jey and roman later.

Saw fastlane

kick off show

mustafa ali vs riddle for the us championship, riddle defends it quite nicely. mustafa is thrashed by his team and well i guess he aint the leader no more

the main event

sasha banks and bianca vs nia and shayna for the womens tag team championship, the match was going well and than some misunderstanding between bianca and sasha by reginald and that led to their downfall, giving chance to shayna to pull one over sasha and take the win

big e vs apollo for the ic championship, the match was good Big e won and it was a very short window to see who won lol

strowman vs eilas was meh, shane took a uturn and had a leg injury so couldnt compete with strowman bleh, strowman won ofcourse

nakamura vs seth rollins, match was good, seth won kinda surprising for me

mcintyre vs sheamus no holds barred, by far the best match of the show,sheamus and mcintyre bring out the best in each other this was no different, ooof, mcintyre won

alexa vs randy, yeah thismatch lol well the match was fun ride but it was all for the return of wyatt. match was no contest but wyatts back or the fiend

roman reigns vs daniel bryan for the universal title, man this was another hit match, a grueling and long but entertaining no doubt, daniels submission moves were awesome. he said he'd make him tap and he did kind off but edge didnt seeing it and than lashing out on both at the end was argh but i guess predicable story line here. roman retains and well will face edge at wm for the title

the match was good both got it going on around great. lashley won though and after the hurt business gang got in sheamus but drew came to the rescue.

than it was asuka vs peyton royce, changed look for peyton here and inring she is better now. asuka won none the less but peytons got much better after the match rhea ripley returns and challenges asuka to WM and well asuka accepts.

miz vs jeff hardy was an ok match. miz won and after got a bad smack from bad bunny with the guitar as miz did last week to bad bunny and bunny accepts miz's challenge at WM

kofi vs aj styles, the match was fine omos at aj's side and xavier at kofi's with a little distraction from xavier to omos , kofi got the edge on aj styles and pinned him

mcintyre 2 on 1 handicap match against benjamin and cedric, with the odds stacked agaisnt him drew overcame and won

mandy and dana take on nia and shayna, the tag match was fine, mandy was quite good though with reggie distraction all over the place nia slammed dana and took the win

strowman vs elias again, so we have strowman take on elias again as shane is injured or so strowman wins and after shane accepts strowmans challenge at WM

show started with daniel bryan pissed he got screwed at fastlane, demanded a rematch and so on, didnt leave ring until aiden pearce came out and said no rematch tonight and than edge came out and said you got your chance move on dont cry and such and that got heated a bit and both brawled it out a bit

than it was nakamura vs rollins, match was fine until rollins after his win tried to beatdown nakamura than cesaro nakamuras old ally came out to the rescue and showed rollins the out way. backstage rollins gave out a challenge to cesaro and cesaro accepted by beating him backstage as well

big e and street profits vs apollo crews, chad gable and otis, match was good big e was dominating but later crews took the win for his team

KO show with sami zayn as guest, it was ok KO just wanted an explanation of if sami would face him and he did and later KO beat him senseless lol

bianca vs natalya, match was ok, sasha came out to distract belair but belair still won

so the big decision about WM regarding the match between edge and roman plus daniels rematch, itsa triple threat between all three. yuppeee

hurt business opened up raw and well lashley put up a marker on mcintyre anyone who takes down mcintyre gets WM opportunity, after that he got into benjamin and cedrics face saying they disappointed him by not defeating mcintyre at that point benjamin got angry and shoved lashley which made lashley go out on benjy and cedric, RIP hurt business, no more :(

than it was sheamus and riddle. the match was good riddle got defeated but one thing is that he aint letting this go, riddle got angrier than sheamus at the end shoving sheamus out of the ring even after his defeat

jason ryker vs strowman was a a meh match. shaun and strowman at wm is very forced

miz and mirrisons new hey hey hop hop was ok, bad bunny acting all tough i'd like miz to put him in his place please.

than it was lashley vs benjamin, the angry benjamin made this match and cedric at his side. lashley took care of cedric by chasing him out of the ring and a quick slam and submission led to benhamins defeat

new day game night with aj styles and omos, this was an ok segment entertaining

shayna vs naomi, the match was ok, too many distractions led to shaynas defeat by naomi.

finaly richochet vs mcintyre, backstage mcintyre challenged anybody who could take him down and ricochet took the challenge, match was good ricochet was good but mcintyre beat him and right after mustafa ali came up to the challenge of taking down mcintyre but again mcintyre was too good. lastly lashley showed up angry and all and mcintyre and lashley did got in a bout but king corbin from smackdown showed up and took down mcintyre making lashley dominate on him. looks like this challenge to take down mcintyre has been heard across shows now hmm

wrestlemania weeek w00t w00t

show opened with mcintyre as he talked about his past and future and got a bit sentimental during his speech out comes mvp and lashley to address their own and well it was a fine segment

than it was aj vs xavier woods, match was OK . xavier took the win

strowman vs elias and jackson ryker at the same time 2 on 1 man this was brutal for the both of em haha shane looked afar from the entrance. strowman won

asuka and rhea vs nia and shayna, the match was going ok with a bit of confusion between asuka and rhea, although asuka was on the match proving to win it rhea at the end time got into heel mode and proved that she had nothing to do with the match and smacked asuka her partner and threw her in the ring for shayna to take the win

bobby vs cedric, ohh man former thb member cedric now got the hands of lashley, it wa s abeating he will never forgetr, lashley had to take down benjamin as well who was interfering but he took the win none the less

riddle vs mustafa ali was an ok match, riddle took the win while showing sheamus who was the commentary table that hes gonna benext at WM and not to take him lightly

mcintyre vs baron corbin, the match was brutal though, mcintyre won ofcourse but had a tough time with corbin.

Hi @manigamer what's your take for overall mania card and your predictions ill go match by match and with my predictions


Night one

-Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Drew McIntyre (WWE championship)

Prediction

Bobby Lashley he deserves his WM championship moment

-Sasha Banks (c) vs. Bianca Belair (SmackDown women’s championship)

Prediction

Blanca to win Idk y

-The New Day (c) vs. AJ Styles & Omos (Raw tag team championship)
One of the most weird match that came on the cards putting AJ on the tag team is awful

Prediction
AJ and Omos

-Bad Bunny vs. The Miz

ts just a fun match, don't even care about who is winning Miz and Morison should be in the tag match rather than just entertaining and wasting talent, It would have been better for Morison to be in AEW he get his single better run, and how awfully they are using MIZ he was the champion a month ago

Prediction
Bad Bunny

-Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon (Steel cage match)

I dont know why even share wrestles he is just below an avg wrestler hope Strowman gets a good WM moment

Prediction
Strowman

Cesaro vs. Seth Rollins

Cesaro finally getting his first wrestle mania singles match in 7 years he is a champion material

Prediction
Cesaro


Night two in the next post after few days.

saw WrestleMania 2021 Night one

ok so the show started with A BLAST

bobby vs mcintyre ohh yeah, the match was everything i had hoped for it was awesome. the two dueled it out like men, though there were some distractions from mvp but i think the match cut it down the middle both gave it their all and bobby came out fighting, yeah expected this and since they gave the title to bobby so recently taking it back so soon wouldn't had been good either, i was expecting benjamin or cedric to interfere and get in there to hurt bobby but nothing weird

the womens tag team qualifier to face the champions, natalya and tamina won, the match was good some of them matches were great, dana and mandy's match was a bit of a mess up, since this was the first live payper view after an year or so mishaps were to happen.

cesaro and seth, ohh man again another awesome one. cesaro and seth both fighting it out no belt match but still great to see. those spins to rollins were great. look ma no hands haha

aj and omos won the tag team championships , now that was a bit surprising, OMOS was like a giant who couldn't be hurt lol invincible haha

steel cage match between shane and strowman was Fine, the steelcage ripping apart and such was entertaining to see, strowman won.

bad bunny and damien priest vs miz and morrison, now this one i wasn't expecting much butman bad bunny got some slick moves here and there and being a fan of wwe he did not disappoint. some crazy moves here and there the stamina etc and taking some shots up and close, BB got ma respect here. good one, BB and damien won

finally BIANCA and SASHA the main event match for night one, this ones for the history makers, two black womens superstars in the main event for WM and on top of that a great match this was, you could see it in their expressions it was just too much for the both of them the emotions and all. bianca won this one a BIG ONE FOR HER.

I love the day 1 of WM37 it was great all the matches were really really good Drew and lashley was so good happy to see lashley winning, bad bunny match was sick I havent seen someone non wrestler with such good moves impressed. Bianca and Sasha lived up to the Main Event hypes truely amazing and impressive, Cesaro finally getting his moment he deserves a good solid championship run looking forward for night 2

P.S please make roman lose im bored of him.

As expected, night 2 of WM was largely a dud. The only saving grace was the main event, which was easily among the top 3 matches of both nights combined. Reigns, Bryan, and Edge performed really well. The submission spots, in particular, were nicely done.

Wrestlemania night two :)

so the show kicked off with the fiend and randy orton, the whole match was a big ho ha and scared scenario lol, the bliss part distracted the fiend and randy captilized it for a win.

womens tag team match shayna and nia vs natalya and tamina, the match was quite good though giving close competition i think natalya and tamina should had won. they worked real hard this time

ko vs sami zayn was a decent one. both were good in ring and after the match logan got all in samis face while ko stunned logan lol, KO won btw

riddle vs sheamus for the united states championship, this one was good. both were athletic and good at what they do, while riddle was good he was no match for the powerhouse sheamus yeahhh, sheamus won !

nigerian drum match, crews vs big E, now i dont know what this match was with drums and all but i dontthink they played much part lol, Big e was winning until dabba kato the big man showed up and slapped big E and made crews pin him. crews is the new champ

raw womens championship match, asuka vs rhea ripley, not as intense as the womens smackdown championship match but it was good both were powerhouses but rhea took the win. new raw womens champion

now the main event triple threat universal championship match, roman vs daniel vs EDGE, the match was short a bit fora triple threat imo but it did its JOB, top matches from WM didn't disappoint as such and the winner ma MAN YOUR HEAD OF THE TABLE ROMAN REIGNZZZ :D

KO and sami was really good, Big and Apolo match was amazing good movies through out,

WM main event was Lit amazing could have ended better without using Usos. Roman looks like he cant win without usos help, by pinning both of them together it clearly shows Roman is after new competitor now .

Asuka losing title was sadden to see 3 title changes occurred WM37 night 2

the night after wm expected some surprises but only that charlotte is back

show started with lashley vs riddle lol this was outta nowhere some match up made just for lashley fighting someone i guess . riddle got on lashleys nerve backstage earlier prompted a match haha, lashley won ofcourse but riddle was impressive at being beat :p

viking raiders are back too vs shelton and cedric, raiders won making shelton and cedric no longe rbeing part of hut business is hurting their business now :p

rhea ripley vs asuka rematch from wm, now the match was going well, the exhaustion from last night was being shown on both asuka and rhea, rhea a bit more since she was struggling to pick up asuka and all but it was all a no go since charlotte interefered and the match was a no contest

shayna and nia vs mandy and dana brooks, i dont know what mandy and dana were doing with their outfits again, with that slip and malfunction one would change their attire for the show next day but they were busy holding their business during the match rather than actually performing well haha. nia and shayna won ofcourse

new day vs elias and jackson ryker, new day won.

now the main event, mcintyre vs randy vs strowman, winner gets to face bobby at backlash, match was good randy being a snake made strowman and mcintyre fight and scooped in time to time to take on the opponents but in the end mcintyre took out randy and took the win. facing bobby at backlash now. mcintyre got this opportunity back
