@Background Pony #78F8 Shakes head I find his Promos when they’re going too Long to be Boring, he’s no CM Punk, Heyman, Jericho, Savage, Roberts, Austin etc. on the Mic. And like I said, his Mania Matches are mostly forgettable & Meh at best. WM 16, WM 18, WM 19, WM 25, WM 26, WM 29, WM 32 especially are the Main Examples of that. :o
…honestly, though it was for sucky reasons, it did sort of work out. Sting was retired a few months later, where as it gave Triple H enough legitimacy to look reasonably badass for future Wrestlemania’s. He can’t lose at every one after all.

I’m not a fan of Triple H’s wrestling either, but I can’t deny his drawing power. People adore him.
For the record I recently watched ‘Wrestling isn’t Wrestling’, and I fully agree that he’s spectacular character. When it comes to promos and storytelling, he’s one of the best. I guess that’s why he tends to do well at Wrestlemania, he’s a master at making things look epic.
@Background Pony #D3CD Giggles softly It had Amazing Atmosphere don’t get me wrong, but as a Wrestling Match itself it wasn’t that Impressive. The Mania 28 Match had a lot of False Finishes & the Cell itself never was used really except one short Spot I think. By the way, when I think about it, wasn’t this the Match that Bret Hart gave a significant 4/10? :D
@Philweasel
HHH is Overrated in my honest Opinion. Most of his Mania Matches have been very Lackluster to say the Least. The only Ones I somehow liked/enjoyed were the Matches with Bryan(Mania 30), Beniot & HBK(Mania 20) & maybe the one with Taker(Mania 17) that’s it. :o

We still don’t know what Triple H is doing at Wrestlemania do we? It seems a bit weird that they just kinda… dropped those feuds, but I guess they were just laying the seeds there. You know, Triple H pissing off so much of the roster that someone will be available to kick his teeth in.
Braun, Triple H and Shane are all people I’m almost certain will have matches at Wrestlemania (they’re all massive draws), but I heard that management are still unsure as to what those matches will actually be.
I’ve been doing some reading, and it has been concluded that the conjunction of the spheres that greets Wrestlemania somehow weakens Brock’s F-5, allowing it to be kicked out of. Only six men have ever survived getting hit by it, and they all did it… at Wrestlemania.
Oh no, wait. One man kicked out of it at full power, at Summerslam in fact. Guess who! (though to be fair, he still lost)
Frankly the conclusions of that match have been repeated to death since, bar that deeply disappointing Brock vs Braun match (which seems to be the real non-canon one).
