So yesterday I went and saw Wrestlemania XXVII at the theatre, but unfortunately Mother Nature decided not to cooperate. We got to see most of the first match and then the feed cut out and we missed the end of that match (as well as a very expensive car getting destroyed afterwards) and the following 3.5 matches before the satellite feed resumed. So I missed all of two matches I was looking forward to seeing and the start of the match I really wanted to see. Because the feed cut out for so long, all us patrons got a full refund and a free movie pass for future use. 

Anyways the first match of the evening was Edge vs. Alberto Del Rio for the World Heavyweight Title. It seemed odd to me to start with this match, especially since I remember a time when the World Title was more important than the WWE Title. Edge of course won because the World Title deserves better than Del Rio could have provided. And that’s when the satellite feed cut out do to bad weather (obviously somewhere between here and Atlanta because the weather here wasn’t that bad). The next match we saw was the biggest match of the event (in my opinion), HHH vs. The Undertaker. This match had an awesome ending (as was expected), but ultimately The Undertaker won, making him undefeated at this event at 19-0. I loved this match because it was a throwback to an era when I was watching on a regular basis. The next match was the one Snooki was in with 5 other unfortunate competitors and she won the match with two impressively athletic moves. The final match of course was the main event for the WWE Title seeing the Miz vs. John Cena. I never thought I’d find myself cheering for the Miz, but as it would happen, this time I was in fact cheering for him. I was even alright with how the match ended, the Rock making the match no disqualification and then proceeding to cost Cena the victory by delivering a Rock Bottom, which was the result of weeks of them making fun of each other on the air and Cena one-upping the Rock the week before.

All in all I thought Wrestlemania was a pretty good event this year despite missing the middle of it. That said, I am happy I got to see the end of the match I was waiting for and that I got to see a $30 pay-per-view for free.
