WWE’s 42nd Wrestlemania, the biggest show in wrestling and the annual ‘season finale’, has concluded to a mixed reception.
The first night included the resolution of several storylines that fans felt were poorly developed. Most matches were relatively short and deemed mediocre, with the main event almost losing the crowd entirely. The bout between Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton felt formulaic to many, with the audience appearing zoned out as they awaited the expected interventions before a conclusion widely described as confusing.
The overwhelming sentiment regarding the first night was that it was perplexing and lustreless. Advertising was given considerably more airtime than the actual wrestling. Only one hour and 25 minutes were dedicated to wrestling during the nearly four-hour programme.
In contrast, the second night was much better received, as the matches were of a higher quality and allocated more time. The main event between CM Punk and Roman Reigns provided a strong conclusion to their storyline.
While fans remained frustrated by the sheer volume of advertising compared to wrestling on the second night, the quality of the in-ring action led to a more positive response. Overall, the event has received mixed reviews, as the limited time dedicated to wrestling and the disparity in quality between the two nights has left many fans debating whether the second night only felt great because the first was so underwhelming.
