36 needed an asterisk because of the circumstances. I DID enjoy the distraction during the pandemic and they were able to do things outside the box with Firefly and Boneyard that wouldn't have happened otherwise. Wouldn't have put it on the list imo. So many early manias could have replaced it.

The fact that a Wrestlemania with a full capacity crowd was so bad it got ranked worse than a pandemic-era one with no crowd speaks to how absolutely terrible that Mania was. So glad I wasn't keeping up with wrestling as well back then.
27 is the worst Mania. 36 had circumstances beyond its control, 32 had injuries to Cena/Orton/Rollins/Bryan. 27 OTOH has no such excuses.

It genuinely took me out of the video for a bit. I know WT/PFK/NRB try to be and are very inclusive and supportive, so I wasn’t expecting to encounter that here.

Pleasantly surprised that WrestleMania 4 was left off entirely. To me 36 gets too much hate. The circumstances were unimaginable. They did the best they could and the effort alone makes that show exempt to me. Meanwhile 9 was under-hated here. 9 is so, so bad.

With what we had and what was going on in the world... Wrestlemania 36 was great. I understand and agree with the fact that it's hard to watch back and I probably will never do that again but it still made me forget about the shittiness of the pandemic for a brief moment.
4:33 See I disagree with Tempest and Luke here. Going into Mania 25, Randy Orton/Legacy vs Triple H/The McMahon family was *the* hottest angle going on TV and was almost single handedly carrying Raw at the time. Yes they massively fucked up the payoff by a) having this be just a regular 1v1 instead of a weapons filled war and b) not having Orton win but still, at that moment in time it made sense for it to main event

The problem, said before was that it should've been a No Holds Barred, anything goes, Unsanctioned match and let the two go all out but instead they made it so that if Triple H got disqualified, he would lose the title, resulting in them just having a normal match which nobody wanted. It also didn't help the fact that it went on after Undertaker vs HBK which was so good that it would've been hard for any match to follow it up.

Luke saying HHH vs Taker at 27 blows is baffling to me
I feel it’s a bit unfair for Mania 36 to be in this list. Sure, it’s a hard Mania to go out of your way and give it a rewatch. But the world shut down for the safety of everyone, and they did a pretty solid job all things considered. Under normal circumstances, if they gave this, it’d be a bad one. On the other hand, I would need to really think about it on where they place, but, this may be a bit controversial, I’d have 30 and 33 on my top 10 worst Manias.

Its because the WWE spent a whole year telling us that this match was once in a lifetime. If they didn't book Rock vs Cena at 28 as "Once In A Lifetime" this wouldn't be a problem. From Wrestlemania 27 all the way to 28, they couldn't stop themselves from telling us that it would be once in a lifetime or "never before, never again" all the while planning on doing it twice. Also really doesn't help that while the 1st one was fine, the second one wasn't. One of the wrestling's best examples of false advertising and since they effectively booked the main events of Mania 28 and 29 before 27 had even finished, they put themselves in a bind where if somebody got majorly over, the main events were already set, do it didn't matter how over the person got, they weren't main eventing. Usually, this wouldn't be a problem as this time period was prime "If you're not John Cena, Randy Orton or Brock Lesnar, you can go screw yourself" but then all of a sudden, CM Punk become the hottest thing in wrestling. While I do think Punk shouldn't main event 27 or 28, Punk absolutely should have been in the main event for 29

I love you guys, but talking down on Bret and Shawn at WM12 hearts me heart! 😢 I still enjoy that match lol.
Can you all just leave the logos at the bottom of the screen for the whole time they are being discussed? Just to help me keep clear what is being talked about and facilitate me googling things.
I think the iron man match is awesome and Diesel vs Taker was a good big man match. 12 is no where near the worst mania.
Slightly funny story. I was at WrestleMania 27. I remember really enjoying myself. had lots of drinks, I remember Cody vs Rey was a great match. I think Cody was starting or in the beginning of the Undashing story and had the mask. Good stuff I unironically liked Jersey Shore at the time. So I remember Snooki doing a good looking handspring elbow in the corner. I remember hating Cena at the time. So watching him lose in the main event to the Miz made me happy at the time So now the twist. A big group of my friends went, but one guy couldn't make it because his job didn't approve his time off. So he watched it alone in TV. My buddies and I were talking with him the next day saying how great mania was and blah blah blah. He looked at us like we were crazy and said it was awful. So one by one we all tried to rewatch it that week and slowly realizing how bad the show was. TLDR: being there live and intoxicated in the crowd can change your viewing experience.

Also through the first couple matches the card seems actually good. Like taker vs Jake was OK. Martel vs michaels OK to. 8 was better than 4,7 and 6
WM 27 is made worse by the fact that Miz was concussed, ruining the planned finish. And McMahon basically going, “We gotta finish, so dammit kid, finish!” Dude didn’t know where he was and was essentially told to keep banging his body around. And damn John Cena for making that spot happen the way he did. He could have (and should have) had Miz come down off the barricade so he wouldn’t slam Miz’s skull off the concrete. The match was sloppy to start, didn’t get any better. No real highlights to anything from that show.

1:29 Theyre crazy if they really think the Iron Man Match is really bad tbh. Like, is it the best iron man match, no, but it isnt a bad match. I just dont understand how people can say its some horrible match, when it isnt. Ik its opinion based and not everyone has the same opinion, but its a great match actually. Like recently as the years go on i hear more and more and it makes 0 sense to how they call it a horrible match
I'm so glad Edge's career didn't end with WrestleMania 27. Because I think 27 got a lot of slack, before 2020, for being Edge's last show. And then he came back at the Royal Rumble! And Adam Copeland is STILL GOING! So now we can hate on WrestleMania 27 *properly*.
To this day, I still have not seen the main event of mania 32. I watched everything leading up to it, but I when triple h's entrance was over, I cut it off.
And, Luke begins by telling everyone that he doesn't actually enjoy ring psychology. He wants a poorly made video game, but in real life.
As an old school fan since the early 80's, Wrestlemania 8 cheated the fans of the Dream Match between Hogan and Flair for the WWF title. Back then it was who was better, Hogan or Flair. You could tell from the fans at that Wrestlmania and at home that the WWF screwed up huge. Mind you, they built up Wrestlemania 8 for that dream match and 2 weeks later changed paths due to Hogan admitting steroid use. That match STILL could've been done because nobody cared that wrestlers were on steroids. We already knew that.
Shame about WM36 because the Boneyard Match and the Firefly Funhouse Match especially are two of my favorite matches.
Dunno why I imagine I would be in one of these videos, so instead I'll just wait for Luke to be in the middle seat to do what I would do: "Tables!" "Are Lists Actually Good?" "And Chairs!"
Great to see them just dismissing people's opinions on The Miz. Like seriously, i understand these guys have their opinions and that's okay but i do think they hate on The Miz too much. I know this hasn't got much to do with WrestleMania but it does get kind of annoying when they just make fun of people liking The Miz because he's not an indie darling and doesn't do canadian destroyers and flip kicks all the time.

Honestly, not surprised that 36 is on the list. The grandest stage of tjhem all...in an era where a virus effectively placed almost every human being into house arrest. It's probably for that reason why 36 (and really just 2020 post-Elimination Chamber until MitB 2021) would be considered a bad time all around. That said, probably wouldn't have placed it in a podium finish though (9, 32 and 27 from Bronze to Gold for me)
Why does Mania 2000 get so much hate? Its like a 7 match show or something? And 4 matches are so entertaining being the Triangle ladder match, the triple threat, even the hardcore match is just so much fun, the main event is one of the best Fatal Four ways ever... Don't get it. So underrated its criminal.

Suffering from an insane hangover right now and i feel the headache cured as this video plays
7:30 That’s the build to the first match
Thats where my view on grading these differ. If by any chance, a WM has a 5-star match (25 and 28), then you can't call the worst by any means.
36 is a time capsule, it’s going to be fascinating to look back on in 10 years and a damn sight more entertaining than at least a quarter of other manias. Doesn’t deserve this ranking, similarly 2 needs as asterisk for the experiment - it’s the second mania and with that extremely early in PPV, it’s tough to really follow a guideline of what will work when you don’t have one established.
To me, WrestleMania 36 is #0 on this list. It's the worst and something that I'll never watch again, but I also can't hold it against WWE since the circumstances were out of their control.
It's funny because while I don't like WM27 in general, WWE has made me dislike more because of their inability to maintain licensing rights. Undertaker vs HHH was the only good match imo and a big part of what I loved about it was the entrances HHH looking BADASS lit aglow as For Whom The Bell Tolls plays, Taker slowly walking to Johnny Cash. Awesome. And both edited in subsequent replays. Without those what are you left with? An admittedly good but not match between the two and an admittedly all timer of a video package for Miz with Hate Me Now? Show is bad
Mania 32 sucked. So I get it. But a dark horse for bad Manias is definitely 34. Goodness that was a tough one

I know im in the wrong here, but i kinda liked mania 34 A lot of wrong winners, sure, but hey, champions have to retain sometimes Shinsuke and AJ, Asuka and Charlotte, and Brock and Roman are the only matches I’d change who won, but outside of those i think the show was pretty okay Especially with Seth getting his IC title reign in that absolutely PERFECT opening match.

@@thatonek1duno Completely fair. It was a lot of factors that went into me not liking the show though

@@thatonek1duno34 doesn't deserve the hate it gets. IC opener was a banger. Asuka/Charlotte, despite the finish, was a great match. Nakamura/AJ was solid. It's not their fault that the fans hyped it up to be an 18-star classic. That's the fans' fault. Grade it on what it was, not on what you expected it to be. The mixed tag at this show was also incredible. Go back and rewatch it. It's a trip. And as shitty as the main event was, I actually popped when Brock won. I thought it was hilarious.
36 was an amazing show EDIT: rewatched 36, sorry gang, it’s mid, the cinematic matches IC and tag ladder match carry the show
Every time I think about the main event of WrestleMania 27, I think about Miz getting a concussion and don't remember the match.
WM 2 would not have been on my top ten list because a) they were still in the "let's throw stuff at the wall and see what sticks" stage, and b) the Dream Team/Bulldogs match was absolutely a MOTY candidate. That said, with the steady growth of PPV even then, it was less a new concept in closed-circuit television or "satellite" television and more a last major push for it before PPV proved more profitable to promoters of all kinds than closed circuit TV.
Would love to see you do this exact video for NXT Takeovers. Likewise I want to see every NXT Champion as a catergory for Survival Series.
36 is a good mania but I’d probably cry if I rewatched it
I don’t think 36 should be on here.. YES most of us WONT go back to watching it, but there was indeed a lot of good moments/matches…
3:12 Poor Tempest 😂 Quite literally, caught in the middle 🤣
Happy St. Paddy’s Day, WrestleTalk. ☘️🇮🇪
Mania 28 in top 3 is actually crazy
Revisiting this video because I went back to rewatch 36, and I do agree with Pete that 36 is full of great matches but the show is unwatchable. A personal note that hurts more is that COVID caused the pandemic shutdowns that gave us Mania 36, and it’s also the illness that led to the heart attack which killed the man behind the best match of that weekend. The one big plus of 36 is giving us the two-night Mania, which is still the best production change WWE has made in decades.
Technically Cole said "join us with the New WWF Champion" still spoiled, but didn't mention Austins name
Crazy thing is, Wrestlemania 27 was the first Mania I watched live lol. Cody/Rey, Punk/Randy, Triple H/Taker 2, and the Miz's video package before the main event, are what stuck out to me as what was good about it, but everything else they said was definitely spot on lol
sad we won't be able to watch this years wrestlemaina with you guys in person!
29 was my first mania so i would never put it on the list.
Please do an episode on best Wrestlemania stages, will tie in nicely with Mania XL!
WrestleMania 27 & WrestleMania 32 was the Two Worst WrestleManias I ever watched 😭
For us drivers who love to listen to you guys chat wrestling and absolutely love TLC. Could you guys say your picks please 🙏🏼 great content. Love you all. 😍

Same boat, and definitely, definitely, definitely this.
As a New Englander I can confirm, Hartford Connecticut sucks.
So stuff from the past that no longer holds up well like the Iron Man match gets viewed as objectively bad. But things more recently like CM Punk crying about loving AEW (holds up WAY worse) is a top 5 all-time great promo lmao no consistency or logic
I actually fully agree with all of them. Great job, lads!
The thing about doing Wrestlemania in multiple cities is that now, they actually can do that and have it work. Do Smackdown and Night 1 in one city, and Night 2 and Raw somewhere else. Maybe this is how they facilitate more overseas Manias, by doing an American city for one of the two nights, and London or Paris or Sydney or whatever the other night.
Saying the HHH V Taker match in 27 blows is fucking insane
the Pete story bit was fucking hilarious lmao
