Oh absolutely, but modern WWE style matches (especially including older performers) often feature and ending sequence consisting of big move, lie down/sit for a minute or two, big move, lie down, repeat. It's a necessary evil when you have 40+ year old performers competing (outside of Japan where they seem to keep going regardless of age but then they're inhuman) but there's no doubt it impact on the quality of a match.

As I say, compare the end sequence here to the end sequence of their first WM match... that had a lot fewer breaks in it.

On a side note I'm also not a big fan of the gogoplata as a finisher... but then I dislike most MMA/BJJ/"legitimate" submission moves as finishers, at least in the US where pro-wrestling doesn't have the symbiotic relationship with MMA/shoot wrestling it does in Japan. Del Rio gets a bit of a pass because of the flair he uses in the set up of his armbar.

Vicky the best heel on TV?

Could well be true...

And Lay-Cool the most entertaining thing in WWE?

That might be true as well.

Layla needs to keep throwing shoes at people forever.

True. Matters little to me really. I'm happy to say that The Undertaker won. But I agree with Aiden, that it should be an up and coming star to beat Taker if that's the way he's going to go out.

I love the comment 'I thought black was suppose to be slimming' when Vickie enters.  As well as the sign from a fan... "Shut up, Vickie!"

Great booking for a quick match.

Fun, short, to the point... and Snooki looked great for a virtually untrained celebrity. Compared to her cast mates appearances in TNA damn near perfect.

+ Trish if possible looks better as a brunette.

SinXAzgard21

I'll agree with you on the Vickie thing. Its amazing to see what she's been able to do with the opportunity she was given.

Laycool bores me to tears, though. I mean, they are decent enough in the ring, but when it comes to everything else? Zzzzzzzz

There's no heat for this match right now... everyone's just waiting for the Rock to show up.

I'll wax lyrical about the qualities of Lay-Cool later.

The Golden Touch

Seventh Match
For the WWE Title
The Miz v. John Cena

Winner: DRAW

I honestly like that Cena is 7-0 in his WrestleMania, and Miz is only 1-0.  Cena is an entertaining WWE Star, while the Miz is equally entertaining but some kind of annoying. They are even on the pinfalls... After watching The Undertaker and Triple H battle it out, this match is ridiculously slow. The crowd, the announcers... Everything is not as high tension honestly.
GAH! Honestly, the last few minutes... Finally the excitement with Attitude Adjustments twice, and now a draw.

What a terrible false finish.

Even Rock had his heat stolen it was so bad.

The Golden Touch

As I figured would happen... The "anonymous" GM dinging. Sigh. Finally, Rock is on the floor.  Haaaaaaaa... IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!

MOAR WrestleMania!

It's sad that the highlight of a WM main event is a Rock promo/beatdown.

There's GOT to be a Rock/Cena match now... but the issue is they won't be able to stretch out an angle all the way to the next WM or even Summerslam.

As soon as the Rock agreed to come back they should have mixed the booking up and made him vs Cena and put Miz against someone else.

Yeah, okay that last match was horrible...  Plain and simple it was like watching the Goldberg vs. Lesnar match all over again.

Ket

* Ket is re-watching since her cable company lets you buy it and watch it twice in a row.

And since I missed the beginning because I wasn't going to watch it at first, but evidently Hooters was too packed and Mr. Ket couldn't get a table.

That last match was a serious disappointment.

she wears strength and darkness equally well, the girl has always been half goddess, half hell
