Even if you take out the fact that this was (probably) Undertaker's last ever WrestleMania moment - which we weren't to know until after the final bell - it still doesn't really hold up as a wrestling match, much less a main event.

It was simply too one-sided to go down as a great bout, its final few minutes essentially just a series of Spears and Superman punches from which 'Taker made little or no attempt to defend himself. It was like watching Godzilla take out nameless extras who didn't even bother fighting back.

You can see what they were going for here. Roman, the company's next franchise player, was supposed to take the mantle of ruler of the WWE yard in the most emphatic way possible, thereby passing the proverbial torch from one larger-than-life icon to the next.

But the emotion, the connection between the two men, didn't really warrant that sort of finish. In that respect, it was a poor man's Shawn Michaels versus Ric Flair from WrestleMania 24, and - all said - not a the best way for the Deadman to bow out after nearly three decades of service.
