No not at all. That is just the max number. Nothing like wrestlemania.

How was The Rock involved tonight?

Edge beat Alberto DelRio to retain the World Heavyweight title
Cody Rhodes beat Ray Mysterio
Randy Orton Beat C.M.Punk
Big Show, Kane, Santino & Kofi Kingston beat The Corre
Trish, Snooki & John Morrison beat Laycool & Dolph Ziggler
Jerry Lawler Beat Michael Cole only to have the Annonymous GM reverse the decision and award Cole the victory via DQ. Austin celebrated drinking beers with the crowd, Booker T and he stunned Josh Matthews much to the crowds delight.
Undertaker beat Triple H to keep the streak alive but after the match, Undertaker got stretchered out. Triple H tried to help him but the refs waived him to leave.
Miz beat Cena .... wait! The annonymous GM wanted the match to end but the Rock re-starts the match and Rock Bottoms Cena (payback from Raw when Cena gave the Rock the AA) and Miz wins again!!!

8) Bring back Beetlejuice he will take the crown.

Sorry.....I made a small mistake....the Miz and Cena got counted out the first time around....not that anyone cares....the "stellar" card that this WM was.
The Rock stole the show if you ask me. The "Rocky" chants went through the roof. The fans booed Cena to pieces yet again. The Laycool, Ziggler / Trish, Snooki, Morrison match was a total waste of time. They put Daniel Bryan and Sheamus in the dark match...WTF???
-
How did Trish look?
If she's no longer married, I'm not picky - send her my way!

Looking at that card, it really was horrible. Wrestlemania is hitting a low. They need to develop or find another huge draw wrestler. The Miz as champion just doesn't do it for me. I'm glad I watched celebrity apprentice instead.

I missed the "Free for All" (at least that's what they used to call it). Is Sheamus still U.S. Champion?

She is still married. Her hubby owns a construction company, thus her early exit from wrestling. She doesn't need the money or the running around. She went brunette, still looks hot as ever. :)

In Getbig vernacular:
"She is still married. Her hubby owns a construction company" = ELBOWS ARE TOO POINTY; DEFINITELY A "6" AT BEST

I was there in person. It sucked ass. I have a review on the Wrestling board.

i believe the olympia and the arnold classic are always sold out.

Yeah but the venues are small.

Wow....pathetic....see below....
The Undertaker and Triple H have both been fined an undisclosed amount by WWE, due to them using a chair shot to the head spot at WrestleMania. Chair shots to the head are against company policy.
UPDATE: Here is the official blurb from the corporate website…
Superstars Fined for Chair Shot
Pursuant to WWE’s Concussion policy, the stunt of using a folded metal chair shot to the head is prohibited. Triple H and The Undertaker have both been fined for violating this policy at WrestleMania XXVII. WWE penalizes through fine and/or suspension for violation of this policy, which is unchanged and still in effect.

Mania XXVII: Prediction Results
April 5, 2011
As mentioned in my earlier commentary I had a 48 percent prediction accuracy rate going into this show, and last years performance was by far my worst yet at only 20%. So let’s see how I did.
Edge vs. Alberto Del Rio: I picked Del Rio to win this match, as did many people and in the end Edge retained the title so I’m off to a horrible start. I did really enjoy it however finding it to be the second best match on the show. Being the Monday morning booker I think this finish was a mistake in that Miz retained as well, and with only two title matches on the show fans didn’t get a single title change on the show. To me WrestleMania should have some significant news coming out of it and with only two titles on the line and neither of them changing hands there wasn’t a lot that was news worthy coming out of this show. I’m 0-1 right out of the gate.
Rey Mysterio vs. Cody Rhodes: I thought Rhodes would pick up the win here and thankfully Cody didn’t let me down. I thought they told a great story with this match and I enjoyed it a lot. Batting 500 now: 1-1
The Corre vs Kane, Show, Santino, Kofi: This match changed slightly from when I made my prediction (Kofi rather than Koslov) but I was still figuring Corre would pick up the win here, and I was wrong. Not much of a match but what can you do with only a couple minutes? At least Heath Slater took an awesome bump for Show’s knock out punch. I’m now 1-2.
C.M. Punk vs. Randy Orton: Another bad prediction for me as I picked Punk and he ate a huge RKO and was pinned by Randy. I thought they told a good story and I was into it and enjoyed it. I think I need to just start picking baby faces across the board; I’d do a lot better. Down to 1-3 and I’m dying a slow painful death.
Jerry Lawler vs. Michael Cole: I wasn’t expecting Savage-Steamboat going in but I did not expect it to be this bad either. Everything before Swagger cut Jerry off was good, as was everything after Lawler made his comeback, but my God Cole’s offense was painful to watch. I hated the reversal of the decision in the match too. To me it made me feel Cole got the last laugh so nothing was settled here. While that can be good, when you combine that with no title changes, not much was settled at Mania making it feel like a non-news worthy event. If not for Taker and HHH a fairly miss able WrestleMania. Since the win was reversed I’m 1-4.
Undertaker vs. HHH: I’ve heard a few people criticize this match for being just big moves and kick outs, but I disagree. For me this match totally worked. They created great drama and emotion and I was completely into this match and with the 18 year build to the story it was made to feel epic. HHH hitting the Tombstone actually made me second guess my prediction, great job by both guys. The facial expressions and body language in this match were pure art. Best match on the show. I picked Taker and he came through for me so I’m up to 2-4.
Trish, Snooki, Morrison vs. Lay Cool & Ziggler: Boy this was short and rushed. Were Layla, Morrison or Ziggler ever even legally in the match? Baby faces picked up the win so I pick up another one: 3-4
The Miz vs. John Cena: I picked Cena, and Miz ended up with his hand raised so I missed another one. I was not a fan of this match. I don’t know this for a fact but I would hazard to guess that both the video packages and the ring entrances were longer than the bell to bell ring time of this match, for sure combined they were. Not a fan of the double screw job finishes in the main event but I guess when you want to end the show with Rock they were kind of stuck. I end up 3-5, not good but slightly better than last year.
As an over all show I was disappointed. I thought the long breaks between matches with Backstage skits, all the video packages, and commercials, the show lost that big event atmosphere. The arena looked and felt so cool but with all the breaks the show ended up feeling more like a big episode of RAW. The backstage stuff never felt like backstage at the event to me they felt like video packages, I’m not sure why. The commercials really annoyed me too; I paid $55 to watch this show and had to put up with commercials for Tough Enough, the next PPV, and worst of all The History of WrestleMania DVD. Perhaps if this stuff was spread out differently I wouldn’t have noticed so much but they felt detached from the event and the breaks between matches felt longer than some of the matches. Can’t give the show a thumbs down mind you, there were 3 matches I really like, and I loved the HHH – Undertaker match, so I thumbs up based solely on those, but all in all the show was below my expectations.
So the final accuracy count I managed a 38% prediction rate, up from last year but still below my all time average. Let the record show:
Mania 22: 63%
Mania 23: 63%
Mania 24: 44%
Mania 25: 50%
Mania 26: 20%
Mania 27: 38%
Average: 46%
