Some of the wrestlers involved have sustained serious injuries over the years.

Yes but can the fellas that are scripting it not put bets on and then right out the result they need.

I think the Paddy Power bet thing is an April Fools. Im guessing Cena will beat the Rock. This has the potential to be an all time classic. Taker and HHH will fight out a spot fest which should get 4 stars.

The rest of the card is mediocre in my opinion. Punk/Jericho hard to call. Punk will probably go over. Randy Orton for his credibility should take Kane, Rhodes to get a push with a win over Show and I generally don't care about the Laurinitis/Teddy or Woman's matches.

Any were  i can watch it online?

Decent wrestlemania but have been to better PPVs, opening match with the short finish was awful booking, surprised they put Kane over, CM Punk v Jericho, Rock v Cena good matches & as expected Taker v HHH was a classic.

Betting wasn't April fools as those odds were up all week.

[Bingo]

It amazes me that their is odds available for these, I'm assuming it was a joke?

No the odds were genuine, Skybet and various other bookies were giving odds as well.

The betting had been up from Thursday so wasn't an April Fools.

HHH/Taker was incredible as expected. One of the best matches Ive ever seen in regards to drama and storytelling. The match was helped by having Michaels as referee. Three legends of the sport in one ring at the biggest show of the year.

Cena/Rock was brilliant but wasn't a masterpeice. Nevertheless the Rock winning was what the crowd wanted and they got that. Still think it could have been executed a bit better but it was still a spectacle.

Jericho/Punk had a hot last five minutes but the rest of the match was average. Kane and Big Show's victories were passable. The 12 man tag was a non runner without being awful. Paid no attention to the Divas match while the DUD at the start was unique I thought.

The near 80,000 strong crowd, the open top stadium and the backstage skits made it feel like an old school Wrestlemania.

Did anyone else hear the rock say 'will we do the ddt?' followed
30 seconds later by a....DDT. Ridiculous. I know it's scripted but that was poor from the rock.

Rock and Cena talked continuously throughout that and weren't really that discreet about it. I thought Rock was a bit clunky at times. Probably a bit of ring rust.

Don't miss Raw

Don't miss Raw 

Only have a few words to describe Raw.. Lesnar & yes,yes,yes

[RealSpiritof98]

How did the annouce tables stay untouched with that line up at mania, match of the night has to be HHH/taker, but was def not the ''best WM of all time'' as Cole spouts out continuously
Just watched Raw, the crowd knew what was coming and Cena couldn't help but laugh and continued to call out Rock. On the subject of fighters talking, it's certainly become more evident and imo takes away from the spectacle even though you know its scripted (Punk and Henry practically stopped for tea in the corner last night).
