WrestleMania: 5 big mistakes WWE made in the last 5 years

#4 WrestleMania 33: Randy Orton's WWE Championship win was forgettable

Unlike the previous year's main event, Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton was an exciting prospect as the WWE Championship match at WrestleMania 33. Their storyline had plenty of time and effort put into it, with Orton famously infiltrating The Wyatt Family and destroying it from within.

But at WrestleMania, everything fell apart. Instead of a violent brawl, Orton and Wyatt put on a dull affair that wasn't worthy of the Showcase of the Immortals at all. It should have been a brutal fight, given after personal The Viper made the feud when he burned Wyatt's house down.

The in-ring action wasn't the only issue with this match, as the creative surrounding the match proved to be detrimental, too.

WWE projected videos of moving insects on the ring canvas whenever Wyatt did his spider walk. They were creepy, so this effect could have worked, but none of it mattered in the end.

Orton simply put Wyatt down with an RKO. This loss was the most damaging defeat of Wyatt's entire WWE career, and it ended his first world title run with a whimper.

WWE should have ended this fantastic story with a bang, either a double turn or with Wyatt stepping up as a main event star. Neither of those outcomes happened, and as a result, the WWE Championship match remains the least memorable part of WrestleMania 33. Hopefully, The Fiend can right this wrong at WrestleMania 37.
