| 0:00.0 | So I don't know how you are feeling today, but I, Simon Miller the bald idiot, thought I would take my positivity pipe and stick it where the sun doesn't shine. |
| 0:07.3 | That sounds terrible, but this is meant to be a good thing because there's just so much doom and gloom, especially when you go on that there, social media. So why don't we just jump back to some good times? Because that's right, on occasion |
| 0:18.5 | wrestling is the best thing ever. |
| 0:20.4 | So here's 11 times where W.W.E. |
| 0:22.6 | Literally just did that. |
| 0:24.3 | Number 11, the Because that's right, on occasion wrestling is the best thing ever. So here's 11 times where WWE literally just did that. |
| 0:24.3 | Number 11, the best WrestleMania ever. |
| 0:26.3 | So there is some reason he buys here, and of course we'll wake up tomorrow and fill differently. |
| 0:30.1 | But if you do go back and watch WrestleMania 39 now, |
| 0:33.1 | I want to walk into my house and say, hello, dear Simon. |
| 0:35.9 | I think that Mania 39 is one of the best |
| 0:37.9 | WrestleMania's to ever go down. I would sit down and have that chat with you because good grief |
| 0:42.8 | it's brilliant. Now it absolutely helps that Cody Rhodes won at WrestleMania 40. We always have to |
| 0:47.5 | make that caveat because if he never had finished his story, then yes, you go back to 39 and |
| 0:52.2 | crying to your cornflakes because it would have been the stupidest decision of all time. However, he did win and that Batman game is good because Batman's in it, so everything is fine. It was also really when I think a lot of people went, oh yeah, the two-night WrestleMania can work. And look at some of the things we got on this damn card. I mean, the main event of night one was a tag team match, which was crazy under Vince McMahon controlled professional wrestling, and it saw Kevin Owens and Sammy Zane finally defeating the bloodline because they beat Jay and Jimmy Uso for the WWE undisputed Super Whooper tag team titles. This match is also great, and it ends with you just feeling warm and fuzzy in your tum-tum. And given to the night two main event was going to do the opposite, this was actually terrific top-tier booking. Charlotte Flare and Ria Ripley is one of the best women's WrestleMania matches ever, too, because, oh my gosh, they absolutely whoop each other's ass, and even that tag team showcase they did. Nobody thought much of that to begin with, but you sit down and watch it now? My gosh, it's a barrel of laughs. Seth Rollins and Logan Paul also surprises most because Seth Rollins is brilliant and everything between Ray Mysterio and Dominic Mysterio. They hit a total home run. It was yet another moment where lots of people scratched their heads and realized, oh my gosh, the condom is a brilliant, brilliant star. You also have the Triple Threat Intercontinental title match between Gunther Seamus and Drew McIntyre, which got five stars in the Wrestling Observer newsletter. It deserves every single one of them. That is a terrific match. And, of course, also help continue to restore the importance of that belt. So if you are a brand new fan, you haven't |
| 2:17.6 | got around to watching this yet, I give you permission, it totally rules. Number 10, the beginning |
| 2:22.8 | of the beginning of the end for the bloodline. So Sammy Zane's first night on screen with Roman |
| 2:26.8 | Reigns came all the way back in 2022, and if you can believe it, this was meant to be a one-week thing. |
| 2:33.2 | I believe Paul Heyman thought it would be funny, then everybody watched this skit and realised, yep, Sam needs to go into the bloodline, because he just makes their chemistry even better. The big payoff came about a year later at the Royal Rumble, 2003 when Roman Reins and Friends had totally destroyed Kevin Owens after their match, when the Tribal Chief gained Zame chair and said, to prove your love to me, you have to destroy your friend. |
| 2:54.6 | Sammy realized he didn't want to do that. |
| 2:56.6 | He attacked Roman Reigns, and all you need to do is go and listen to the crowd response to this. |
| 3:01.6 | People lost their minds. |
