I agree plenty of what you had to say.. I believe this was the best PPV of the year, thus far.. Sure, bash it.. I don't mind.. I was at WrestleMania and didn't think it was that great.. The experience was spectacular, but the wrestling aspect was nothing special.. Call it biased, but the fact my three favorite WWE superstars won, that only made it better.. Lol.. But for Punk getting booed, keep in mind this was in Rhode Island. Rhode Island is basically Smarkville, USA. Why would they like Punk?

[astone08]

he was booed when he won the case in houston (i was there as well) and has been booed on a pretty regular basis...i think he just needs a new twist on his character and a heel change might just be the trick

I donno how you could rate 6 man tag that low. Being there live it was a friggin awesome PPV and Mania def just seemed like a build up to this. Besides the glitz and glamour, this def seemed to be better than Mania. 6 Man Tag was DEF better than Orton/HHH, Edge vs Cena was def better than Triple Threat and Hardy vs Hardy was just as good, if not better than Mania and Steamboat vs Y2J was better than Y2J vs Legends.

[astone08]

arman...you were there live so you are going to have a totally different opinion/feel for it

my advice would be to re watch the show and see if you still have the same opinions

[RandFproductions]

your ratings dont make any sense..... almost everything is over 3 stars..... and yet its a 6.75. Makes no sense.

[astone08]

a lot more goes on with my ratings than just the star ratings

if one of your main events is extremely lackluster, that is going to effect the rating (as it effected many ppl's ratings when it came to mania 25)

only 3 matches were either 3 stars or over

out of curiosity, what would you have rated the ppv if you used my star ratings

[MB69RatedR]

I'm going to find a person why fucks with you and ask him not to respond to his haters (you) because apparently, it makes sense.

I might have laughed myself if I wasn't already po'd. Raw's crowd was good.

[UnlimitedProdiction1]

My first time watching you. Good review

[UnlimitedProdiction1]

I thought the goodbye thing to HHH was hilarious. Other then that yeah the crowd was shit.

[SeetherandWWETNA]

ok if they're cheering a heel like jack swagger or santino marella or other people who have little or no talent, but if they're cheering a heel like edge who has a lot of talent but isnt allowed to use it that is fine in my book

plus i was cheering edge over cena

but the fight was a little stupid for reasons I agree with you on

it was interrupting the hardy's i quit match

the entire place had little kids all over it

and they were probably completely buzzed

one kid got thrown into a rail

[CaseDesignate]

Here's my backlash review: THE CROWD WAS SHIT.

Far too many of the usual assholes cheering the heels, especially the queer bald couple in the front row left and the afro crazy hair spic front row right (how do these BOISTEROUS ASSHOLES always get front row tickets?). Too many twenty-something assholes cheering Orton and the asswipes who sang the "goodbye" chant when HHH was knocked out. The bald queer in the grey t-shirt was jeering Steamboat when he got his round of applause. Shit crowd.

[CaseDesignate]

Really? That kind of thing is bound to start happening with all the BOISTEROUS ASSHOLES who insist on showing off by cheering the heels and trying to rile everybody up.

I don't want to see fights in the crowd at wrestling shows but I would laugh if one of those "look at me I cheer the heels" types got smacked.

You shouldent have music in the background

[13ssureno13]

wats wit the music kinda annoying

[KcLegendary]

Like the way you have the old them of Orton in the back ground. I did not see the ppv,but from the vids i have seen already.sounds like the ppv was good,even some gave it an...8.0,wich could be overatted btw,good video.
