10 WrestleMania 32 Mistakes WWE Must Avoid This Year
8. End On A High
Now, a high doesn’t necessarily constitute something you
like or enjoy. Despite him being a thoroughly unpopular heel at the time, Seth
Rollins’s Money in the Bank cash in at WrestleMania 31 was a ‘high’. So was
Daniel Bryan’s big win the year before, and so was the reveal of Steve Austin’s
collusion with Mr McMahon at WrestleMania X-Seven.
That’s because those moments were dramatic; they either perfectly closed a chapter on their respective storylines, or they set up new and intriguing plots you couldn’t wait to watch unfold in the coming weeks.
Roman Reigns spearing Stephanie and winning the WWE Title didn’t really have the same effect. You can blame that on the match, the booking, or the 75,000 plus people in attendance booing the ears off Reigns, but whatever the cause, the match closed out a long and tiresome Mania with a whimper, rather than a bang.
Whether Goldberg vs Lesnar or Wyatt vs Orton headlines WrestleMania this year, it seems that we’re a great deal more likely to see a more dramatic and noteworthy (Reigns’s win was noteworthy, but not necessarily for the right reasons) end to the Show of Shows.
