    WrestleMania has always been considered WWE's flagship event, having been described as the Super Bowl of sports entertainment. Taking place on April 2, 2017 at Orlando, Florida. 'WrestleMania 33' was the first joint-promotion flagship event, since 'WrestleMania XXVII' in 2011, when the original brand split ended. The event was also the second 'WrestleMania' to be held at the Camping World Stadium, which previously hosted 'WrestleMania XXIV' in 2008 under the venue's previous name of Orlando Citrus Bowl, and the third to be held in the state of Florida, the second being 'WrestleMania XXVIII' in 2012. Now that we establish the settings, how was the show compare to the others 'WrestleManias'. Surprising, it wasn't that bad, but it did had some audio and camera problems. Still, it was a huge upgrade from last year's disappointing show 'WrestleMania 32', plus it had a cooler entrance set. Most of the matches were top-notch. Ever the preshow matches, weren't that bad. The first match between Cruiserweight Champion, Adrian Neville Vs Challenger Austin Aries was an excellent opener. It's too bad, that it took place, when fans are still, getting in the stadium. So the fan support wasn't all here, but I did like it, more than the second match on the pre-show card, the Andre the Giant Battle Royal. Without spoiling the match, too much, I just couldn't get onboard with the winner. I also dislike the involvement of celebrities. Why can they jump over the barrier, and manhandle the wrestlers, while the common person cannot? I would rather see that female security guard taser him. That would entertaining me, more than seeing Rob Gronkowski in the match. I get that, 'Gronk' just won the Super Bowl with the New England Patriots, despite being on injured reserve, but this was WrestleMania, and he wasn't a wrestler. Plus, he was at the Citrus Bowl, home of college football games & alternate-league American football teams. He look so out of place. It was annoying. Worst match of the night. At least, the pre-show main event was alright, with champion, Dean Ambrose defending his Intercontinental Championship against challenger, Baron Ambrose. However, there was nothing special with it. The match should had, some sort of hardcore stipulation added to it, since the build up to the showdown, had a few. I'm deeply surprise, that a forklift wasn't used in any way, during this match. In the end, highly disappointing. This brings us to the opening match on the main show, with AJ Styles fighting Shane McMahon. I know, a lot of people love this match, but for me, I was kinda upset that it was no way, a traditional wrestling match. I would love to see if Shane could pull it off, but no, it quickly became a hardcore match. The ref bump was awkward & the interfering of Shane's drive for hardcore style was disrupted, by McMahon messing with his same baseball outfit, he wore last year, rather than selling, really took away, what could had been a great match. It was not good. The next match between US Champion, Chris Jericho Vs challenger, Kevin Owens made up for the lack of chemistry in the last match. It was by far, the best championship match on the card. Just wish, the ending wasn't so predictable. Fatal-4-Way elimination match for the WWE Raw Women's Championship was next with champion, Bayley defending her belt against Charlotte, Sasha Banks, and Nia Jax. It was alright, but not as good, as the match, last year. This brings us to the other Fatal-4-Way; which was the tag team ladder match for the WWE Raw Tag Team Championship between champions, 'The Club' (Karl Anderson & Luke Gallows) Cesaro and Sheamus, and Enzo Amore and Big Cass & the surprising return of one other team. It was good enough match, but it was overshadow by the returns, big time. The match was 'obsolete', mostly. The mixed tag team match between John Cena and Nikki Bella Vs The Miz and Maryse was pretty awful. It's not because, I'm not a Cena fan. It was awful, because the story of the match & the aftermath was very predictable. Plus, I couldn't get behind, seeing weatherman, Al Roker being there. He looks so out of place. The only highlight was the Miz's parodies of Cena. That was awesome. The non sanctioned match was next with Seth Rollins Vs Triple H (with Stephanie McMahon). It was an alright match but could had been better. Surprise, that there was no interferences from Samoa Joe. It also jarring to see a non-sanctioned match, have so many rules. The WWE Championship match follow this. Like the Intercontinental championship match, earlier on the card, I was deeply surprise, that the champion, Bray Wyatt Vs challenger Randy Orton match had no hardcore rules stipulation. Still, I dig the special effects. It made the match, stand out, even if the wrestling wasn't that good. Still, mad with the results. The match for the WWE Universal Championship was another disappointment in wrestling terms. Not only was it short, but it was clear, who was going to be the winner, between the champion, Bill Goldberg Vs challenger, Brock Lesnar match. The Six Pack challenge for the WWE SmackDown Women's Championship was better, even if it was put in the toilet break, part of the show, between the undercard and the main event. Naomi Vs Alexa Bliss (c), Carmella (with James Ellsworth), Mickie James, Natalya, and Becky Lynch was wonderfully done. This brings us to the main event, Undertaker Vs Roman Reigns. It was just sad, awkward and slow. It's hard to watch, seeing Taker in the bad shape. He should had retired, years ago. Just glad, it's over, and we can move on. Overall: WrestleMania 33 wasn't the ultimate thrill ride. If anything, it was messy, like Splash Mountain, and not smooth like Space Mountain. Still, it was worth checking out for.
