It was a decent Mania. Not bad, not good, just decent. A lot of people got their Wrestlemania moment last night. I predicted that Roman would go over but damn that match was weak. I've been saying this shit every year since the first Taker/HHH match, but they should have just let the man retire years ago. I knew if they keep putting him out there that he would eventually leave with his last match being seen as weak and him as too old. Reigns is not the person they need to carry a senior citizen to a good match.
And I think that the entire internet wrestling community needs to stop with the turn him heel tactic. Turning Roman heel isn't going to fix the problem and it might actually makes things worst. The problem with Reigns is bigger than turning him heel or keeping him face. His problems go hand and hand with the problems of the entire industry right now. The internet has changed the game and busted the wrestling industry wide open and they're still struggling to keep up. See back in the day if they had a guy like Reigns, who they pushed too early. They could have him fake an injury and send him back to OVW for more grooming. But because of the internet, they can't really do that anymore. It would take all of 30 minutes for the internet to shoot through a fake injury angle and they don't really have a nice and quiet, non-televised OVW place to send him anyway. And sending him back to NXT would kill any future momentum. Yes they pushed him too high too fast, but riding it out is the only option they have right now. Let's say they turn him heel and people still don't give a shit about him. Now you've cut his able to sell merch to children by making him a bad guy and the older fans would just be bored. Now that's 'sitting on your hands' X-Pac heat. We might not like him and they definitely fucked up by pushing him too fast, but at least he is moving product and getting a reaction. They are going to have to ride out the shit storm that they created by pushing him to the moon. No heel turn is going to change that.
