Wrestlemania 30 Reaction

Fresh off the heels of one of the most amazing WWE WRESTLEMANIAS to ever take place, there are plenty of reactions and feelings that need to be digested.
Im not interested in breaking down the entire ppv...but i just want to talk about the big stuff...fuck it. 

The opening for Wrestlemania 30 had to have been one of the biggest star studded promos ever cut by the WWE. Hulk Hogan came out and began talking about how happy he was to be in the SilverDome, but, he really meant to say SuperDome. He flubbed his words, but regained his traction, but was cut short by the most recognizable soundbite ever created by man----THE SHATTERING GLASS of the baddest SOB in the world-----STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!
Stone Cold was his regular awesome self ofcourse on the mic..he had the crowd hanging on his every word..the WHAT? chants were in full effect and his thanks to Hulk Hogan for everything he's done for the business was an amazing gesture...until.......while just the two of them sat in the ring...the next most recognizable music began to play as the ROCK'S music hit to the cheers of 76000 people!
God this was a moment for me that was so nostalgic. I, like many others, have watched all 3 of these icons perform since i was a kid, and seeing all of them in the ring at once was surreal. I was taken back to being a freaking 13 yr old prepubescent child with no hair on my balls thinking i was the the shit cuz i would say "it doesnt matter what you think!!" or "because Big Hec said so!!"
Seeing these 3 guys in the ring was so amazing...the Rock grabbed the mic and had the usual Rock swag flowing---some rhymes, some laughs, and some good moments, especially when he thanked Hogan and gave props to Austin and called them both the top 2 stars in wrestling history--it was everything you knew he'd be when he touched the biggest stage of them all.
Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and The Rock--said all of their taglines, right before cracking open some beers in the ring and cheering it up the WWE Universe and Wrestlemania 30.
What a way to start 'Mania!!

quick notes that im happy about:
1)Cesaro winning the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal
2)AJ Lee retaining the Divas Championship
3)The Usos Retaining the Tag Team Straps
4)Bray Wyatt looking like a beast even though he lost to John Cena
5)The Shield absolutely murdering the New Age Outlaws and Kane

BUT...
The most obvious and glaring Wrestlemania moment that fuckin' shocked the wrestling world is the fact that the Undertaker was defeated by Brock Lesnar and ultimately ended the heralded and coveted 21 year Wrestlemania winning streak.
This streak has been so highly touted by the WWE and it is such a selling point for the WWE that this blogger was absolutely shocked and awed and so was every person in the Mercedes Benz Superdome and everyone that was watching on the WWE Network and PPV when it was fucking killed.
 The streak was the personification of the Deadman. The Undertaker's aura was that of a fucking Demon that was impervious to pain, a man that was not a man, but a living Legend that had no end in sight.
But April 6th, 2014 would be the day that the Streak, along with the Deadman, would forever be changed and it would be over. Never did we think the Undertaker would ever leave a Wrestlemania with a fucking loss, but, it happened. It happened at the hands of Brock Lesnar.
Brock Lesnar, flanked by Paul Heyman, really did have the ability to break the streak. He actually was a formidable opponent to the streak, and has proved it by defeating many of the WWE's top stars. He has shown his dominance and ability to decimate anybody who gets in his way, but, even with the allure that comes with Brock Lesnar, defeating the Streak was undoubtedly above Brock's paygrade.
With a few importantly timed counters to the Undertakers Hells Gate, punishing German suplexes, and 3 F5's, Brock Lesnar successfully completed the task that had been failed 21 other times. He defeated the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, and defeated the Streak. He is now in the annals of Wrestlemania History as the man who conquered the unconquerable.

Speaking of unconquerable...
Daniel Bryans legacy was cemented and he finally achieved his Wrestlemania moment by defeating Randy Orton, and Dave Batista in the Main Event for the World Heavyweight Championship Title. Daniel Bryan had a tough road to the Main Event, having to defeat Triple H in the opening match of the PPV. The HHH match had some very good spots, both because of Bryan and HHH, and even Stephanie played a big part in the match as the mouthpiece for her husband.
Daniel Bryan was entered into the main event after cleanly pinning Triple H, but not before a final beating at the hands of the same man after the match had ended. Bryan was pummeled by HHH and Stephanie after the bell rung, which led to a chair shot to the already injured shoulder of Daniel Bryan. This left us with the thoughts that DB would have an even tougher time, and possibly not even manage to be a part of the main event at all. During the show, they cut in to Bryan in the trainers office being tended to, and I got the feeling it was just to add to the mystique that he would overcome the odds once again, and defeat the Authority, and the main event participants.
At the opening of the match, DB came out strong with a few flying knees and some muay thai kicks to the legs of Batista and Orton.
I went into the match thinking that Batista was going to win..then i saw how weak Batista looked and just thought no way is he going to win.
DB kept the match flowing--especially since Batista and Ortons chemistry really was not present.
The highlight of the match was when Orton and Batista actually showed life...they teamed up to combine a Batista bomb and an RKO on Bryan through the Spanish announce table.((SICK!!))
Anyway....DB was being carted off on a stretcher, but got the 2nd wind, like Hulk Hogan used to, hopped off the stretcher, ran back to the ring, and began to get his legs back...his shoulder issues were a nonfactor at that point. He hit the running knee, and pinned Batista for the win.
The streamers, confetti, and Yes signs all but covered the SuperDome while Bryan held the belts up high on the top rope while the Yes! chants rained down during a spectacular Wrestlemania Moment for Daniel Bryan as he took home the undisputed World Heavyweight Championship to close the show! 


Overall....The Streak ending, in my opinion, really put a damper on the ENTIRE ppv. I really had no motivation to even watch it anymore after 'Taker lost. The Daniel Bryan victory really lost some steam because of the Streak ending..it kinda sucked the life and wind out of everyone it seemed.
Luckily, the WWE Universe and fuckfaces like me have short memories--so hopefully we forget about the Undertaker until next years Wrestlemania when we wish he was back and then get pissed off all over again about the streak ending.
But...I think Taker has had his last match...he's done..but it was a great run!

I give the PPV an overall A rating. It would have been an A+ if the Streak was kept in tact.
