People don't see that overreacting to the BR grades is exactly what led to what happened Andreas. But why would they? 😂🤷🏾♂️

Change of plans, I'm headed home.
Just landed in Minnesota.
I will watch #WrestleMania Sunday from my house with my son. He's very excited, and I'll post a quick review after the show.
Good to see everyone- hope you all get back safe.
English
@TheRajGiri Yeah TONS of ads. Idk if WWE has a ppv every single month but you’re paying for the app every month. So, $50 for an ad free ppv every 6 weeks or so is a better bang for my buck. Sorry.
English
Let me simplify this for ya. When you pay for Revolution, you're paying for one show. I'm about to watch the 76ers - Celtics game on the ESPN app. The Celtics game is not a PPV, just like WrestleMania isn't. You're not paying for one show with the app, you're paying for a service with tons of other stuff on.
Josh Boutwell@joshbmessenger
@TheRajGiri And you pay $30 plus fees for WWE PPVs…
English
@AEWAwfulness I’m upset the product sucks. I do watch. When the product sucks, I call it out. I don’t glaze WWE regardless of how much the product sucks right now. Cry harder.
English
@brandphi78 You seem very upset about a show that you allegedly don’t watch.
English
All the online discussion, all the sickos crowing, Dave Meltzer stuttering over his words…
None of those things stopped #Wrestlemania from going over 50,000 people on night 1
Remember kids, there are levels to this, and no one is on WWE’s
English
@TheRajGiri Still less then 2 recent All In events from AEW. Damn! Time to panic!!! 😂😂😂
English
Looks like I was a little low, final numbers are looking above 50K both nights
Raj Giri@TheRajGiri
It will be, although final numbers should be close to 50K. Ticket prices are obviously a factor, but the bigger one is... don't run a stadium for 4 nights within 1 year
English
@MyNinja100 @TheRajGiri @WrestleTix That’s fair. I’m a grammar man myself and didn’t notice it auto chose the wrong version of the word before hitting send. More importantly though, my point stands.
English
@brandphi78 @TheRajGiri @WrestleTix If you're gonna try to insult someone, you should probably know how to properly use *you're
English
We'll see, but @WrestleTix had the tickets distributed at 50,386 earlier today. The announced number was just a few hundred above that
Armador Thrash@ArmadorThrash99
@notthefakeandy @TheRajGiri What are the ticket sales.
English
@SaxmanPictures @PhilDL616 👍. I def don’t think it’s Cody or Randy’s fault.
English
@brandphi78 @PhilDL616 It was screwy relative to the build, but if they'd honored the build it would have been much worse. I can enjoy that match in a vacuum and in the context of what it says about Cody and Randy's relationship and where we go from here
English
@AEWAwfulness Go ahead and watch a shit wrestling show and just enjoy the $$$ they are making then. They need ppl like you who enjoy 7 minute shit matches.
English
@brandphi78 You haven’t had an original thought in 2 years, you just defend AEW relentlessly, that’s sad.
They will do 100k in 2 days and make the most money ever, which is what they really care about.
English
@TheRajGiri Literally less people than 2 of the recent T-Shirt companies All In events. Cry harder Raj.
English
It's going to be the second biggest money making wrestling show of all time. What a failure
meggyOkenna@MeggyOkenna
@TheRajGiri Carefully putting over the lowest number in years. Also heavily papered. Go play with your kids. #wwe
English
@StarWarsMeg1 @TSoS_ Figures. Why even cast someone like that for 5 min? Stupid.
English
My other feelings for the movie aside, seeing the legendary Sigourney Weaver in an X-Wing pilot suit is just amazing. Really hope she gets a lot of time to shine in this movie. Can't wait to see her blast Imperials in that beautiful New Republic X-Wing.

@BrianRSolomon Completely agree. I’m a lifelong Chicago Bears fan, they’ve sucked for most of my life but I don’t miss a game. And when they suck, they deserve to be hated on and demand to ownership to field a better team and a better product. Same with wrestling.
English
There’s a generational divide at play when people ask, “If you don’t like it, why watch it?” Many fans watch wrestling because they love it, whether it’s good or bad. It’s not like a TV show. It’s like watching a team, whether they’re good or they suck. You’re a wrestling fan.
English
@GoodMicWork When a pregnancy announcement and a Paige return are highlights, it really illustrates how shit the product is right now.
English
Massive THANK YOU to everyone who joined in for the #WrestleMania Night 1 Watch Along! Looking forward to being back at it tomorrow!
Check out the review currently up NOW!

@aaronrift As a PPV, I’d say it’s definitely below every ppv AEW has put on in at least a year. And that’s being generous.
English
Agree with this. I’d say it was pretty good for a B-show but WrestleMania standards should be higher.
Raj Giri@TheRajGiri
I thought tonight was a fun show, but hurt by the #WrestleMania name. For any other show, tonight was really good. But as a WrestleMania, it didn't hit the mark. Sunday will be interesting, since the card is more Night 2 heavy
English
@TheRajGiri Probably the only thing you’ve said that made any sense the last day or two.
English
Sid not getting a full induction boggles my mind. He headlined 2 WrestleManias and won both the WCW and WWF World titles. I don't get it
Aaron Rift of NoDQ.com@aaronrift
Sid should've 100% been a main induction. He was a two-time WrestleMania main eventer, a two-time WWE champion, and a top star in both WWE and WCW throughout the entire 1990s decade.
English
Why would “heel referee” Pat McAfee with a bias towards Randy Orton stop the count and prevent Randy from winning just because Cody kicked out? He’s a HEEL referee.
Fightful Wrestling@Fightful
Randy Orton hits the RKO on Pat McAfee and then Cody Rhodes retains the WWE Championship. #WrestleMania
English
@TheRajGiri Did you see any of her matches in AEW Raj? That’s the reason. You gotta be able to wrestle over there bud.
English
She got a huge reaction when she debuted in AEW. She just never got any sustained momentum there, for whatever reason
Rodman@Rodmanx0
@TheRajGiri Wrestling is a funny thing. Nobody gave a shit when she was in AEW but now people are losing their shit because with WWE again
English
How much is it to watch the NFL? That's just how it is. And it's smart, when you have all your eggs in one basket - like AEW did with WBD - it can lead to scary times when that outside company (in this case, WBD) faces uncertainty
Alli Costello@Alli_Costello
@TheRajGiri Its 100/Month to Watch WWE right now in the US

@JoshDenofNerds Aren’t you the guy who didn’t like Andor??? The one great thing LFL has done since the OT??
English
I spent years trying to call out what LucasFilm was doing to Star Wars... Folks thought I was insane, but I think I'm now being proven correct about it all... The shame of it is that Star Wars is so dead to me that I don't even care to brag about being right... Just let it die please 🙏
English
@AndrewBaydala Never thought we’d be in a world where 2 of the “best” things on a ppv were a pregnancy announcement and a Paige return. Really
Illustrates the place this company is in right now.
English
Quick thoughts- I enjoyed the majority of #WrestleMania Saturday minus the ending which is what everyone is going to remember on any show let alone the biggest one of the year, and it was a head scratcher for me.
Leaving the building didn't have as much energy or hype as last year's Saturday event.
Seems to me like they are bleeding Cody/Randy into tomorrow somehow.
Highlights-
Gunther V Seth
Liv V Stephanie
Paige return
Bianca announcement
