Are we really going to pretend Show or Henry winning this shit fest is going to go down as a meaningful Mania moment?

Won't mean shit for fans but it'll be nice for them. Rusev is ideal and hasn't even been added to the match yet.
It turned out pretty well, I guess. The main matches will be pretty fun. And I'm starting to think Miz will win the Battle Royal, by the way.
Out of the 8 matches scheduled, I'm okay with 5/8 of them. so I would say like a 6.5/10 I have it rated at right now.
7.5/10 If HHH joins the championship match and 7.0/10 if DB joins the match.
7.5/10 If HHH joins the championship match and 7.0/10 if DB joins the match.
That's why they had Big Show complete his Grand Slam by dick-spearing Cody at 28. He's had his moment.
I could say I'm not hyped for WM30 but I have to admit that I am, just not as much as the previous two years (I became a WWE regular at the end of 2011, after seeing Henry and Show break the ring) and I think WM30's card is quite mediocre compared to what could've been. I wouldn't be necessarily be bringing back tons of old stars (like they did with The Rock) but I'd rather build up some of the upper-mid carders for some greater feuds. For example, one of my ideas for the WM30 card when they were still building up new storylines for it:
Randy Orton (c) vs Batista vs Daniel Bryan - WWE World Heavyweight Championship
The Undertaker vs Sting - Streak match
Big E Langston (c) vs Dolph Ziggler vs Alberto Del Rio vs Dean Ambrose - Intercontinental Championship
The Wyatt Family vs The Shield - TLC match
John Cena vs Bray Wyatt - Singles match
The Usos (c) vs The Real Americans vs Rybaxel - WWE Tag Team Championships
18 Man Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal (Sheamus, Christian, Sandow, Van Dam, The Miz, Barrett, Big Show, Henry, Fandango, Kingston, O'Neil, Ryder, Kidd, Fernando, Diego, Rusev, Zayn, Neville)
Daniel Bryan vs Triple H - Winner joins WWE WHC match
I'd keep the WWE WHC plan, with Bryan defeating Triple H at the start of the night and pulling double duty, conquering Orton and Batista at the end of the night to round it all up with the biggest YES! chant ever. Being torn between The Undertaker vs Sting and The Undertaker vs Cena, I decided for the former because Cena can always wait another year and his feud with Bray looks so good already. Big E and the IC title deserve their own big match, so I put Ziggler and Del Rio (we've had encounters between all 3 men before) together with him, and then we could have Ambrose enter claiming to want to win the IC title as he sees it as an injustice that he was never given a chance to defend his US title - I honestly think this match would be in contention to steal the spotlight. Harper and Rowan from the Wyatt Family could be fighting Reigns and Rollins from The Shield, with Bray having fought Cena and Ambrose preparing to fight in the IC title match. However, both Bray and Ambrose come out to help their teams, and The Shield would go over as the babyfaces. We could also see a great tag team bout with The Usos, The Real Americans (who could argue at the end, with Cesaro swinging Swagger to a loud pop) and Rybaxel who are a solid tag team. The 18 Man Battle Royal could, without the extra 12 men (most likely to be jobbers, really), be a good fun match with some of the upper mid-carders and a few NXT guys fighting. I'd have Sheamus, Van Dam and Rusev left with Rusev eventually winning.

It's shaping up to be a great Wrestlemania card imo. I don't care to delve too much into it, but the top four matches all have me excited, and those four consist of half the card. The battle royal should be fun if a tad bit pointless, the Tag Team Title match should contain a lot of great back-and-forth action (I would have preferred they switched Ryback and Axel with The Rhodes Brothers, though... a big guy like Ryback is a perfect fit for the battle royal setting, whereas Cody and Goldust's style and chemistry as a tag team would have added a lot to the championship match, but oh well), The Shield match should be alright (although I'm still butt hurt about not getting a triple threat between the three, but I can understand their reasoning and live with it), and as for the Diva's match... well, you gotta empty your bladder some time, and this match should serve it's purpose well as the mandatory piss break match.
Yeah, I'll agree that the undercard is really weak. Trying to think of some ways to fix it...
-The Usos vs the Brotherhood vs the NAO: While the current match will be good (and Brad, new theory is that the Matadores got stuck in there so Cesaro can swing El Torito) the inclusion of RyBaxel and Los Matadores really drags the match down to their level, so this is a total waste of the Usos and Cesaro. Those guys need to be in a more relevant match, and the Usos being in there with the Rhodes with the surprisingly effective heel Outlaws sounds like a great way to go. (Outlaws can work with the Shield later, they're made, it's time to swallow your pride and help make the Usos. )
-Swagger vs Cesaro: Remember when Cesaro felt like he was on the fast track to stardom? Shame they wasted that.
-AJ vs Naomi, Summer, and Brie. Fatal 4-way for the Divas' title. Stick 4 competent chicks in there and weed out the filler. They don't have to fall into the pitfall of not explaining the match, and you can still use the story going in of Vickie getting back at AJ for costing her her Raw job by letting the Total Divas gang up on her.
Shield vs Harper, Rowan, and Kane. Always thought "Group of badass monsters that bow down to Stephanie" would be pretty fitting TV. They can explain how Stephanie was able to brainwash the Wyatt Family to attack Bryan all those months ago, so she can direct these guys to take out the "traitorous" Shield, all the while putting more heat on the Authority and playing on the heartstrings of "WAAAH why are you burying Bryan!" from last November/December.
And obviously add a point to the jobber battle royal.
