10 Things I Hate About WrestleMania
9. It Takes Itself Way Too Seriously
Granted, Vince McMahon stole The Grandaddy Of Them All tagline from Starrcade, but still the Show Of Shows? The Grandest Stage Of Them All? The Showcase Of The Immortals? You can tell that these nicknames are over-the-top, grandiose nonsense, because they sound like the kind that Triple H would give himself when he was cracking one off in the shower.
But then every WrestleMania is the greatest of all-time, you know. Youd think that kind of hyperbole would leave the company with no room to improve every year but - astonishingly - every year the show gets better and better.
Its almost as though someone on commentary is just parroting narcissistic feedlines from a gnarly old carny with a God complex. Almost.
Likewise, to ensure that everyone recognises the awesome nature of the event theyre watching, WWE are at pains to over-inflate attendance figures, the most notorious of which is of course the gate at WrestleMania III as previously discussed. It's not just performers heights and weights that are inflated in WWE.
We get it. Its big. Its WrestleMania, for Gods sake. You dont have to keep putting it over to us.
