10 Ways WWE Is Completely Unrecognisable From Just One Year Ago
3. The First Ever TWO DAY WrestleMania!
It'll be dwelled upon, but this is huge.

Your writer attended his first ever WrestleMania last year and gleefully soaked up every last second of it - all 19,456 of them, in fact. But would it be quite so manageable second time around? If the stunning big screen display or multi-coloured spotlights weren't enough to distract attention during the drab matches and the sheer magnitude of the crowd only went so far in keeping your jaw on the floor, it was a long long g*ddamn show to get through. Not least when nobody could get home after the fact.
