10 Live Observations From Attending WrestleMania 32

What was it like being there for WWE's biggest ever show?

After months of anticipation and weeks of buildup, WrestleMania 32 has finally come and gone. Roman Reigns, like many expected, is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion once again, and Shane McMahon was not able to wrestle control of Raw from his father by defeating The Undertaker.

The show, like many fans probably could have predicted before it even went on the air, had its ups and downs. While there were some very good matches, especially on the undercard, the ones that were hamstrung by workers with limited abilities or hostile crowds had a low ceiling. Unfortunately, the two main bouts on the show fell into the latter category.

The crowd itself, of which I was a part, stayed relatively hot through what was likely the longest WWE show of all time. The Ryback-Kalisto match went in the ring at approximately 4:45 local time, and Triple H took his final off-camera bows just before 11:00. Throughout the event, people cheered for their favorites (who weren't always the babyfaces, but it still made for a good environment), and only got a bit restless during the main event.
