The rivalry between Triple H and his former protege Randy Orton had been the talk of the wrestling world heading into WrestleMania. Both Superstars did some horrible things to each other, and the fans couldn't wait to see the face-off, even though this wasn't a fresh match by any means.

The first mistake that WWE did was to put a stipulation that Triple H would lose his belt if he got disqualified. With the hatred these two had towards each other, this stipulation made zero sense. Additionally, the fact that this match went on last didn't do it any favors. The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels deserved to close the show, but ended up being the third match to the last.
Fans were exhausted by the point Triple H made his entrance, and the match was nothing to brag about. Months of buildup had gone down the drain, thanks to a bunch of questionable decisions.

While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
