Ranking Every 2017 WWE Pay-Per-View From Worst To Best
12. WrestleMania 33
The Good: Though the Ladder Match stunt show that followed was instantly forgotten, The Hardy Boyz' WWE return was absolutely not - it was a genuine 'WrestleMania Moment' in an era of manufactured ones. Apparently not even worthy of inclusion on the original DVD release, Neville and Austin Aries' Cruiserweight Title match was as glorious as the sunshine it was set to. Brock Lesnar and Bill Goldberg exorcised their WrestleMania 20 demons with a flawlessly planned and executed destruction derby. Triple H and Seth Rollins had one of the better versions of 'The Game's long WrestleMania formula outings, though a later rewatch suggested it required the timeliness of the tale to really amp up the drama. Stephanie McMahon going through a table was visually satisfying, if misplaced and mishandled on the night.
The Bad: The match pitting The Miz and Maryse against John Cena and Nikki Bella was destined to close with 'The Champ's marriage proposal to his longtime partner, but the quality contest didn't have to be needlessly sacrificed to get there. AJ Styles made the best of ludicrous circumstances in his show-opener with Shane McMahon. Whomever laid out the match to position 'The Money' as 'The Phenomenal One's in-ring equal wants sacking...but probably got a raise.
The Ugly: If his contest with Roman Reigns really was The Undertaker's retirement clash, he went out one match too late. The two couldn't remotely conjure up a believable scenario in which the decrepit 'Deadman' could down 'The Big Dog'. The botched Tombstone reversal sequence really didn't help either. Randy Orton's WWE Title victory over Bray Wyatt was catastrophically bad for both men, and permanently 'The Eater Of Worlds' to cartoonish bullsh*t for the remainder of his career.
