Thankfully did not waste money on it (no 9.95 a month, yo), but the fact they used most of the USA Free Preview of Wrestlemania Pre-Event to fluff Gronk up was a disappointment to me. The Battleroyal just wasn't good. Nothing against the winner, just...really...interference from Gronk to help his buddy win? Geez.
So, a poll! A hand full of annoying situations to select from , or choose other and tell what was your least favorite/most annoying moment. You can even tell us why if you wanna.

Britt doesn't agree, but the engagement shit should have been done on the television show they have. Not at WM.

Wrestlemania isn't for hardcore fans. Tonight's Raw is.
Wrestlemania is for stuff that will get mainstream attention. The Gronk shit was all over Sportscenter today, the Cena proposal (which in and of itself proved Miz right, that Cena only does things for the cameras) can mainstream press.
My staff at work today, none of whom watch wrestling or haven't watched it in ten years, knew about both of these events. WWE accomplished exactly what they set out to do, and we should expect more of the same next year. Honestly, most of us would probably be best off taking a time-out from Rumble to Mania, and coming back for Raw the night after. We'd be much less frustrated.
IWC actually got thrown a bone last night with the Hardys showing up, whom the IWC will turn on by Payback.
Today we're talking about Wrestlemania being disappointing. Tomorrow we'll likely be talking about Balor and Nakamura.

As far as Undertaker and Reigns is concerned... I didn't mind it as much mainly because I knew, just like everyone knew, Undertaker is getting old and it was time and it seems that Reigns is switching to a heel. Though the fact that he is being presented as a tweener is irritating the shit out of me.
Gronkowski didn't even upset me that much, mainly because I knew some bullshit was going to happen. So fine, at least it wasn't in one of the big marquee matches. The "prestige" of the Andre the Giandre Over the Top Rope Labatt Blue Royale with Cheese went out the door a long time ago. It is now just a vehicle for "everyone get that sweet paycheck." I also love how Jinder Mahal was the last guy probably because WWE said "hmm... Gronkowski could hurt someone... Better make sure it is nobody important!"
Cena and Nikki... Whatever... Have your damn moment and sell your E! Reality show. Moving on... Sigh...
Though seeing Sami Zayn, Luke Harper, Braun Strowman, Big Show, and American Alpha just get tossed into the cluster fuck of big oily lads was depressing. They deserved better.
