WrestleMania 38 (2022 TV Special)
9/10
STUPENDOUS !!!!!!!! Also Night 1 >> Night 2
4 April 2022
Warning: Spoilers
This felt similar to last year in the sense that Night 2 had a better card going in but Night 1 was magical and Night 2 didn't live up, buuuuuut Night 2 had the triple threat main event which was easily one of the best matches and build last year which Night 2 did not.

The best build, 8 months with recurring Lesnar appearances, betrayals coupled with the fact this was the end of a feud which began 7 YEARS ago, this sure did disappoint, even more considering they had a great match in WrestleMania 31 when their personas were not beloved as well. Since then Lesnar became a major baby face and Reigns improved tons and then some, this disappointed. Night 1 left me on a high and feeling great this, considering the fact was the top feud needed a blood fight. Hey at least it was better than WrestleMania 34 encounter, a decent match in itself but didn't match up to the quality of the build.

Night 1 was a 9-9.5 show and Night 2 was 7-7.5 show hence settled on the screw it, I will watch the Zayn Knoxville match at least 10 more times. THIS EVENT WAS A LOT OF FUN.

Night 1 was great, Becky Vs Bianca may just be the greatest Women's match in MANIA history, Bianca has beaten two of the four horsemen at consecutive WrestleMania'as now. Cody vs Seth was magic and perfect. Great to see Stone Cold, KO bumped like a madman. Only Charlotte Vs Rhonda disappointed considering their Survivor Series match was sooo good, at least the finish was fine, Charlotte won in Flair fashion, her dad must be proud. Also hate to admit that Logan Paul gets it, he's a natural, the hard cam stares, raking in the heat, the athleticism.

Night 2 opened with a banger all the men involved did great, Lashley had a decent entry, Zayn vs KnoxVille was a lot of fun, my match of Night 2. PEAK SPORTS ENTERTAINMENT . Edge vs Styles was a dream match of mine that didn't live up to my expectations but was still good. Preist Edge is a good team but needs a third guy. Malakkai would have been great. I am guessing Ali or Dijakovic joins them. Hope we get Preist and Edge vs Finn and Styles.. Butch was the highlight of the other tag team match. Pat Mcafee is a bloody star, it's a case of an engaging personality overshadowing the match itself and well the one match that I was most hyped for sort of disappointed.

Overall definitely Stupendous and in my top 5 manias that I have seen in my 20 years of watching annually.
