Night 2 is off to a great start. Women's title match didn't have the same level of storytelling of the men's triple threat from last night, but they had some very athletic spots that avoided looking toooo choreographed. Last night's main event was more of a typical WWE style main event, this was a little closer to what you might see on NXT or AEW. Both good in their own way. Ony problem is that even though this was certainly not a short match I think another 5 minutes or so would have brought it to another level.
Ah now this is more like it. Second great match in a row. Drew is always great and Priest put on his best performance I can recall. Part of what makes Mania mania is that sometimes people just somehow step it up. Drew should be main eventing Mania soon.
I do hate the stadium show ramps. Especially in multi man matches.
XD AND THE CROWD EXPLODES FOR DIRTY DOM! Somehow Dom has turned face and it was a hell of a Mania moment to cap off a great match. Bron Breaker gets to drop the belt cause he's clearly on to bigger and better things. This undercard is way overdelivering so far.
Did not see Joe Hendry as the mystery opponent for Orton. Not an amazing match but the a fun moment. Would've rather seen Hendry go over.
I dunno if it's just because he has go away heat with me or because it just wasn't that good, but did not enjoy the Logan Paul vs AJ Styles match very much.
