>>14138623Cody Vs. Roman Bloodline Match
Brandy shows up in the entrance. Funnily enough also saw Kenny Omega and Jericho in the video package.
Crowd more hot Cody tonight, and let me just put over Samantha Irving real quick here, fire annoucning all weekend.
Big match staredown is hot, and we start off with a normal wrestling match - but Cody quickly brings out a table - which Roman quickly puts away. Opening action is decent, and we move into the stands for a Suplex on tables. Action rolls on in the ring, Roman displaying a lot of Heel pageantry and talk in the ring, really something to see after years of the wet blanket Face Roman we had to endure. "That moves suck" he calls his take on the Crossroads, "It never beats anyone". Puts Cody through the annouce table with a power bomb.
Big stuff traded in the ring, and finally we get some interferance from Uso. Then interferance from Uso. Then some other brown guy. Cody keeps kicking out. NOW CENA! Then THE ROCK! Nostalgic staredown. Shield Theme!? It's Seth, who gets KWAB'd instantly.
ONE BONG?
TWO BONG!?
This is just fucking hilarious at this point.
Triple Crossroads, and it's 1,2,3! Irving can barely get her announcement out.
I'll be honest, they were having a fine 1v1 and didn't really need all the outside stuff - But hey, it's Wrestlemania and it was fun as hell. I'll give it up for this one. Brandy and the Face crew show up for Cody.
4 Stars out of 5 Stars.
Cody gives an emotional shout out to the execs, puts HHH over, even Cole can't contain himself.
Overall I want to say I haven't really enjoyed a WM in years, so this was fucking great. Even if Day 1 was pretty lame. This one actually had the stories going in, great production, surprises, action, and feel good moments. What more could you want? A really refreshing new era seems to have begun.
