I give this mania 8/10, Hogan vs Savage is sooo epic

 

[BrotherBruti]

5/10

Another nothing show with far too many matchs, i'm sure they could of cut the number of rounds in the title tourney and no one would of bothered. Trump Plaza made a unique setting but it seemed a bit of a comedown from the Silverdome.

Savage/Dibiase was a pretty good match and Demolition won the Tag Team titles so it had something going for it. Plus it directly set up the classic WMV main event, Savage Vs Hogan.

 

[Nancy Di Loreto]

8/10 It was made to be the prequel for Hogan vs Savage. I like Hogan vs Andre where they both snapped (obviously), and the Ultimate Warrior was okay.

 

[Wrestling Station]

Shitty WM, it was bad for the elimination tournament to take place, boring.
5/10 at most.

 

[schlammklappen]

It had it's moments but was a failed experiment. WWF obviously risked a different format and it failed. At least they learnt from it.

6/10

 

[Montana]

6/10

Mainly because the let down in Hogan/Andre

 

[xtremebadass]

I cant post rate the wrestlemania today, but tomorrow I will post it, didnt have time today

 

[SAIYANS]

Perhaps the most interesting thing Vince McMahon said on today's investor conference call to discuss WWE's Quarter 1 earnings for 2011 is that McMahon said the company has two new "live event" television programs they will be rolling out in the "not too distant future" and that finding a TV home for them will not be a problem. He did not elaborate any further.

I assume that one is the Diva Search since there were talks of them having their own show like TE once before. Maybe the other is Velocity

 

[Kairi]

an all diva search show might be interesting will depend on how it's portrayed

 

[PHX]

2 new shows? Damn was expecting maybe one to replace Superstars. I think they are gonna try the diva show and the other will be Velocity or something like that even though it isn't exactly "new"

 

[Dale]

Diva-Search, wow I can't wait for that one, or Velocity for that matter

 

[PHX]

Velocity was actually really good for the most part esp when they mostly focused on the cruiserweights. Diva search though that would even be the point? The girl who won the diva NXT hasn't done shit and they haven't even debuted any of the other girls from it. Only good thing the diva search did was provide future divas for the long term.

The series of matches between Paul London and Akio on Velocity back in 2005 were fantastic. Adding more television to the schedule when they're already having to continue Superstars/NXT because of overseas contractual obligations is strange. Get your current stuff together before adding new things.
