Overall Thoughts:
I think the main event and the PPV in general gets an unfairly bad rap. By no means is it great and it still seems strange how the championship match played second fiddle to a match featuring an American Footballer, but there are a few decent matches buried in here. Certainly not the worst WrestleMania, but it doesn't have that epic WM feel to it, and so is definitley not considered among the best either.



5.5 / 10.0
