A lot more people tune in to watch WrestleMania than they do when it comes to regular WWE events. And this is because WrestleMania is where all the big guns come out to play. On the other hand, RAW and SmackDown and even NXT are merely pitstops leading up to one such big pay-per-view.
Aleister Black, showing up in a hood and a robe and defeating a man like Bobby Lashley clean in the middle of the ring with the Black Mass was the best outcome for the contest. At the same time, we had no reason to care about it at all because there was no reason for the two men to be fighting as there was no build, no storyline, and definitely no title on the line either.
Breaking Vince Russo and Jim Cornette update HERE.
Like I said at the top of the review, I wonder if years down the line, this pay-per-view will be remembered with fondness or with a sense of derision. I genuinely hope that it is the former because WWE did the best they could, under the circumstances.
