Always go for the most expensive floor seats, usually end up a few rows back, was front row in 2009 and got lucky again this time with row B for Raw and row A for Smackdown. Most people around us were from Viagogo though so probably paid a fair bit more.

I downloaded Main Event and the camera has very kindly zoomed right in on me as Khali comes out as I'm pretty much saying "Not this prick" :lol:

I'll have to catch up with Superstars for my Uso-baiting, and Smackdown where parts of the Del Rio match and the Undertaker match were right in front of us at the barrier

Undertaker was on Smackdown recently?

Yeah. He had a pretty good match with Dean Ambrose. Shield Triple Powerbombed him through a table to the end the show and write him off TV.

Yep, had a tag match with Hell No against The Shield on Raw, and then a singles match against Ambrose on Smackdown. Both were decent matches, and he seemed fine in both- I don't see why they don't use him sparingly in tag team matches, he can still go and can be protected in a tag team match.

Ambrose too has had 2 great matches in a row now, last year he was the dark match for us at the SD tapings and now he is main eventing the show against Taker a year later. Glad that they are using him well, all of The Shield members should have great careers, I just hope they don't break them up too soon or **** them up like they did the Nexus.

This weeks shows were pretty poor I thought- some absolute dirge on Raw, Tug of wars, RRod/Colter in matches. A load of dirge. Ryback/D-Bry on Smackdown was decent though

Reason they aren't using 'Taker again now is because he's going back to hospital for more surgery.....

He's held together with Chewing gum. Lets hope they can get some more use out of him outside of WM, he was great to watch the other week. The show is really struggling without Punk. I do wish they would use Brock on someone other than HHH, its the same problem I had with The Rock- he really should have had some decent interaction with some other superstars, maybe some squash matches here and there. At least Brock has interacted with 3MB and The Miz which is good. Be good to see if they do something with Ryback, despite being terminally dull. Or a Punk/Brock Heyman team would be wonderful.

Ryback is pretty woeful on the mic - and the whole "Ryback Rules" is shite. Its a shame because if he had half the charisma and arrogance that Punk had he'd be the meanest heel since HHH in the Attitude Era. But he hasn't.

IT'll be interesting to see if Punk comes back as a heel or face. I think he'll return as a face very much like Triple H did in 2001.

But yeah the shows are weak at the moment.

I used to be a huge fan of it back when it was WWF. I really want to attend WrestleMania 18 in Toronto but couldn't cause the tickets were very expensive but what an impressive show that was. Rock vs Hogan was just electrifying! I saw them back in 2010 in Toronto and that was a nice card. Edge vs Christian, Undertaker vs Edge, Bret Hart winning the U.S. Title!

I don't really watch it much as I find it really boring, I don't think I have religiously watched an entire Raw and Smackdown in almost half a decade. 2004 for me was their last really amazing year after that it was alright but recently it's boring for me

Wrestlemania 21 in 2005 was amazing up until the half-way point. Angle v Michaels, MITB1, Undertaker v Orton and Eddie v Mysterio were all great. Afterwards it went to shit.

There hasn't been too many great Wrestlemanias when you think about it.

Depends on your definition of great IMO. If you're going solely by work-rate and match quality, there have been a few. But if one goes by spectacle and overall good show there's probably been about 10.

I enjoyed Wrestlemania 24. And 22 was okay in spots.
