Night 1: "Send em home happy!"
Night 2: "Send em home disappointed!"
not those who won bets with Roman lol. they got big money
@@DragONheart27X Not those who have a brother who wouldn't stop going on about Cody winning.
BW Estacado Speak for yourself, mark.
@@raymonderrity1419 hahahaha to each their own I suppose.
Dude I was there for BOTH DAYS and this comment this 10000000% true
I need him to review the Gunther match. As my friend eloquently put it.
It's what Mox thinks his matches look like.
As I like to say "Everyone in A.E.W thinks they look like Dynamite Kid, but they actually look like Star Wars Kid."
😂
That Gunther match was so damn good like so good they hit hard and strong and best part is they got the finish right
The IC 3 way was the best match on WM.
@@TheMrAlgoh Third best.
First one was Rhea vs Charlotte
Second one Cody vs Roman
Third one Gunther vs Sheamus vs Drew.
Amazing wrestlemania.
The men's 4-way tag was the match I had the least expectations for and was most pleasantly surprised by. I really liked it.
It was really good with some great spots. Gable and Ricochet shined bright!
Best match of the night imo
@@jdeljones they definitely beat all expectations.
Dang, I skipped it. I'll have to check it out now
This was just a 8 spotfest with no psychology
I loved both of the Mysterio's entrances. Very well done.
Night 1 was good. Night 2 I can't wait for that review.
Night 2 was also great. The only things you can really complain about are Demon Bálor being a little goofy and Reigns retaining which no matter what way you look at it wasn't the logical decision from a storytelling perspective.
But yes, Night 1 was fantastic and still better than Night 2.
@@BBoy4040 Sometimes a very bad ending ruins an overall great movie
@@meciocio The women's four way eas also bleh. Especially compared to the men's the previous night, those dudes busted their ass to put on a good match.
Good? That's it to you? Good?
@@BBoy4040 You have no idea what I can complain about.
First you had Brock vs Omas which put everyone to sleep, followed by an absolute ocean of flipping women in yellow jumpsuits doing nothing but weak looking spots. Gunther's triple threat match was 20 minutes of chops/punching and 5 actual moves. Bianca/Asuka was ok but would've way better without Will Smith's kids and Doink makeup. Shane McMahon...really? You like that? Wow. Then you have the worst Hell in a Cell match ever and the worst Wrestlemania swerve ever. Night 2 was basically trash from top to bottom.
I just can’t wait to see Jim’s & Brian’s reaction to Vince’s look.
He looked like a prohibition era pornographer
You mean: Vicente Guerrero lol
John Waters
@@joseortega7815 *HOLY SHIT¡!¡!* I thought it kind of made him look like a different person and you just helped me realize why that was; he looks Hispanic with it¡!¡! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gomez McMahon
When I heard Eddie Guerrero theme during Rey Mysterio entrance almost made me shed a tear
ngl I thought Dom would come out to Eddies theme. But yes, hearing it when Rey came out got me in the feels too
@Jason Williams I did to.because Dom said I wish Eddie was my dad.that would've really given Dom more heat
@Jason Williams I just wish,Vickie guerrero would've showed up.but,I guess she still with,Aew
same
Dom with that mask on looked like a bizarro version of his dad and I loved it.
Domenick impressed me so much. What great entrances and match. Rhea vs Charlotte was the best match of the night, though; what a classic.
It’s obvious the Rey & Dom match is also a build for Backlash.
Rey & Bad Bunny vs Dom & Priest.
Backlash is in PR, Bad Buddy is Puerto Rican, Priest is Puerto Rican aswell. That’s gonna be huge for them to do especially out there. Especially for a Latino population
chad gable is a beast for suxplexing braun like that
Shit was hard af
Chad Gable is a beats period.
Rhea vs Charlotte made me stand up on my bed with my fists in the air cheering. A wrestling match hasn’t made me do that since I was 12. Rhea is an absolute treasure and Charlotte was incredible as well
I really hope that the fact that Rhea got the Smackdown women's title, and the fact that JD didn't mess with her match with Charlotte is a sign that they're getting her away from Judgment Day. She's just too good for them. I think they're going to drag her down. I know it could never happen, and Rhea would have to change the goth queen gimmick, but I would LOVE to see her with Gunther and Imperium. Just even as a one time thing, doesn't have to be a whole thing, but once for a special occasion. I think Rhea and Gunther's intensity would be off the charts. Especially if those two are now being set up to represent the company, which I believe that's the case.
Really?
im guessing you're 13 now?
@@crissy4346 I disagree, she keeps JD as a legitimate threat especially after Finn lost the cell match. I've loved their whole storyline since last summer and it's mainly because of her work with Dominik. Keep Priest as the heavy, give him some big wins and some momentum, and I guess kick out Finn if you have to.
Then you don't watch a lot of wrestling, or you may be in love with Rhea, match was great but cmon we all knew she was gonna win and it's not her first title winn so why pop that hard
Really disappointed Bobby Lashley and/or LA Knight didn't have a match at Wrestlemania
Would've liked that over almost and bork as night 2 opener
That men's showcase was actually good. Come on, Corny. 😂 At least Brian gave it a good nod.
I loved that match
They lugered Cody
Been waiting for this. The best podcast period
The street sweepers 😂😂
Seth franklin rollins🤣
Little uzi burns 🤣😂😭
Night 1 was amazing. Matches such as Rey vs. Dom and Usos vs. Owens/Zayn had strong long-term builds. The matches had a lot of energy and the right people went over.
I can't wait for night 2 review.
He going to have a field day
@@carriebrooks2377 specially on da Shane McMahon injury
@@chihollywood9379 yesss Shane knew he shouldn't been doing all that
@@carriebrooks2377 💀😂 man fr he started off with those fucking punches man just get a trash can and give us the coast to coast n call it a day smh
Rhea and Char are wrestling soul mates. their match for Night 1 is the only match ive sat down and replayed multiple times this WM.
Does Char call you Ri?
S I M P L E T O N
It was too damn good.
The way Logan was selling his hand was so convincing . He does alot of stuff right for a new guy. He can only get better. I'm pumped for Ksi too. Love him XD
Travis even got Vinny's cheesy mustache!! The Arteest!!!👋😎
His hair is darker now than it was in his 30's lmao
@@ajr4888 At least Vinny still has hair. Some of us,we can't brag, bald is beautiful 😁
Anytime Brian does an Excalibur impression, I always expect him to follow it with “wow this is great” in his Schiavone voice 😂
Charlotte Flair v Rhea Ripley STILL has me buzzing. An absolute incredible performance by both. Awesome!!!
Wrestlemania 39 was a lot better than I expected!! And Night 1 carried
Na, it sucked. Wwe is dead.
Charlotte once again proved she is the goat of woman’s wrestling
Vince auditioning for a future Howard Hughes biopic.
God DAMIT !!! PAL
He looked like Ernie Kovacs!
@@ronald-xs7sp I was thinking Vincent Price or Walt Disney, he seems to be going for that 1950s/60s eccentric millionaire/billionaire look
Gomez Adams lookin' MF'er
Charlotte vs Rhea was 💯%🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I think Rhea v Charlotte was supposed to be the main event, based on all the posters, but the Sami storyline was just too hot, and frankly, the ladies didn't build their program very well.
But once that bell rang, gawdam... They let the world know.
Can’t wait to hear the Walter match review.
Waltah, waltah I'm no suplexing you right now waltah.
It's Gunther.
@@TheMrAlgoh whatever you say, Eli Drake.
Gunther
John Cena class act, bringing those make a wish kids , wow! what it must of felt like for those kids to be out there. I was crying, im old 43 year old pro wrestling fan , and to see it mean something like helping sick kids believe and feel better, well it’s real to me dammit, pro wrestling is real to me! Also I like womens arses hanging out in woman’s wrasslin , love that pause button. 😂
Crazy to me that Jim doesn’t think the Usos are a great team like has he ever watch them wrestle or does he fast forward those matches as well? Also, only Ric Flair, friends of his, and casuals like Charlotte
I loved almost every minute of it. My city really showed up and showed out
Because this was the show that they brought the new owners to "kick the tires" as some good folks would say. You got to show the goods, buddy
@@claytonjones8358 well put, Super Balls
Night 2 is why we cant have nice things.
I liked the visual of Dom wearing the Mask .
Flair vs. Rhea 100% best of Night 1
Night 2 was 8/10...Night One 10/10
no offence but i don't understand when people do this, 8 and 10 out of 10, night one was THE BEST event you've ever seen? or ever been? it was decent, a solid 7 for sure, but 10? and then 8 for a really slow and dull night two? maybe a 4 out of 10.
there was stuff on both nights that wasn't good and difficult to get through, how do you come to 8 and 10 out of 10?
Interesting hearing Jim’s comments about how to end the show, prior to him watching night two!!
Exactly what I was gone comment it's like he knew
Gotta love more Cornette yes!!!!!!!!!!!
Wrestlemania Night 1 phenomenal!!! Night 2 mixed feelings.
Night 1 legendary, night 2 decent.
Night 1 amazing! Night 2 legendary!!!!
Cornette like me ; quit watching so long ago that he is still impressed by the arena sets.
I would say in my opinion the best WM I’ve seen since the early 2000s
Night one night 2 was blah
@@carriebrooks2377 Disagree. Cody/Roman, Balor/Edge, Asuka/Bianca and especially Gunther/Sheamus/Drew were all highly entertaining.
@@mja2317 drew McIntyre and them it was good but the finish to roman was blah everyone was expecting cody edge and finn was blah bc we seen it for a year and I was over it night two was ok it wasnt like night one it was ok not great
@@mja2317 Bianca vs Asuka was boring, Finn vs Edge was just forgettable.
Gunther vs Sheamus vs Drew, and Cody vs Roman saved night 2.
Night 1 is legendary.
That 4 way deserved a watch if for no other reason than Gable's rolling German on Braun.
Maybe little uzi vert can afford a belt for his pants now
Night one was excellent
and 2 was shit
I'm guessing Charlotte is going after Bianca's title next
Hope Jim finally sees the brilliance of Asuka and give her respect cause she was done wrong this wrestlemania
Corny is racist and does not like asian's
A very great Saturday event. Ripley winning championship belt and Zayn/Owens winning tag team belts was exactly what fans wanted. Those who may have bought the tickets for Saturday only surely did not miss much, lol.
Charlotte & Rhea was an amazing match, but it didn’t have the same build unfortunately as the tag team match. The tag team match had so much emotion, the back & forth promos, the betrayals, etc. I just wish there weren’t so many superkicks in the match though. Too many false finishes from big moves get to be too much
The street sweeper's lol! Idk why but the "brown strongman" gets me every time lmao!!
I’m surprised he doesn’t call Ripley out for how she delivers the rip tide to anyone over 100lbs. She can barely pick them up, like charlotte, and just kinda struggles to get them to waist height then flips them down. She should be picking them up over her chest and slamming them down otherwise the move looks weak. Also she sells every move the same. Arches her back like crazy and flops around like a fish no matter where it impacted her. She’s good just has some holes I’m surprised king hater Jim Cornette doesn’t mention.
Never thought I would hear Jim say KSI lol 😂
Can't wait for Jim's triple threat review. What a sick goddamn match that was.
I Stan for Rhea so bad lol the intensity in her eyes, her facial expressions, body language always in character. the way she sung her theme song after the match cuz she believes in every lyric in it. You can just tell she's hungry and wants to prove she's the best. Charlotte was amazing too
Her selling is why she’s so great she’s believable she’s strong she’s good on the mic but damn her selling puts her on another level both physical selling and facials the eye rolling shook thing she does when getting hit with a ddt is so good
BETA!
A grown man saying "I stan"... where's your dignity?
@@JohnSmith-wh2ob she’s gotta be the best selling woman ever. It’s like art
@@GuyoftheStars
I could care less what people think of me that don't know me on TH-cam brotha lol
Rhea. Is a beast. Hell of worker👋
Whenever I say you can have a wrestling match with real drama and emotion in it, people rarely believe me. If I could, I’d show them that Charlotte Vs Rhea match, with the build-up package beforehand. The whole thing, with the reactions afterwards - Rhea taunting her, Charlotte’s pained smiling. Nothing is perfect, but it was damn good
Definitely sleeper match was logan & Seth.
"I keep lookin around for fkn dipshit. Where is he? Where is he?" Lol sounds like everyone's favorite co-worker. 😅😅😅
Better night of the two by a long shot. The IC title match was the show stealer of night 2
Now that’s what I call an instant Review. Fckn awesome
BRING ME PICTURES OF SPIDER-MAN, PAL!
For someone usually so against outlandish things in wrestling, I did not expect you to love the Dominik prison transport entrance
Had this conversation about Dom with a friend of mine. He is going through the same route as Rock. Hated as a baby face at the beginning, turned heel etc
RR too
I hate how Jim didn’t give the tag match a chance. It was actually good. Cena match you shoulda took a shit on.
I don't know if I'm the only one that notices, but false finishes are becoming way too common.
Seems like there's way too many close-ups of wrestlers with surprised looks after a 2 count .
One match in particular I kept seeing the surprised look after not getting a 3 for just doing a basic move.
Just sitting there with this stupid surprised look on their face.
I was like "get over it. Stop sitting there with that stupid surprised look on your face and get back on them."
They waste like a whole minute with them sitting there with that stupid surprised look on their face.
Night 1 feels like could’ve ended at rhea v charlotte
Yeah which is crazy considering The Bloodline was top tier story.
Best match of both nights was Rhea vs Charlotte.
the classic Mike Tyson ear biting tactic. works every time
Logan Paul, he's a better worker than 75% of the AEW roster, the young man is pretty darn good, especially for someone that hasn't been properly trained
9:41 Jim sings that Metallica riff again, lol
Not a Metallica Riff ‼️
@@younique_ink okay . I thought I heard it from the opening of " The Frayed Ends of Sanity ", maybe it is something else, please don't mind me , dude.
Night 1 was great.
Night 2 was lackluster but the main event would've put the Night over.
As it is I think we got an A show on Saturday and a C show at best on Sunday.
Really gotta give it to theory. First Austin, then Cena .
I'm not trying to intentionally bury John Cena, I'm a fan, he's one of the greatest of all time, but man, when watching Cena in his last few appearances, he's really showing his age, and quickly
The 4 team tag match had no business being as good as it was
Honestly it was one of the highlights. I'm disappointed Corney didn't give it a chance.
Night One was near perfect, one of the best Manias of all time. It blows my mind how badly they dropped the ball on Night 2. The weakest match of Night 1 was Damage CTRL vs Lita/Trish and Becky and most of that falls on Lita. Damage CTRL is pretty much DOA. The Tag team Showcase ended up being far better than anyone expected. KO/Sami and Usos, plus Rhea/Charlotte were both Match of the Night.
The fuck you chatting? The gunther match alone made night 2 worth watching. You might not like the finish but the Cody match was great. Asuka was incredible. What the fuck
I don't know which was sadder Shane tearing his quad or Lita trying to deliver poetry in motion.🤦♂️
Vince booking he forgot solo was ejected already and had reigns retain for corporate greed and politics. Fuck the e
The way Jim butchered Seth's entrance music was hilarious.
The big tag match was way better than I thought it'd be. You shouldn't blindly shit on things. Not everything anyway.
Night 2 was a big letdown after the awesome Night one.
Letdown why? Because Cody lost?
@@semyaza555 yes
Man you people want everything baby fed to you and when it’s not all hell breaks loose 😭😭😭😭
@@whyareyoureadingthiis886 Modern fans are why wrestling will never be as good as it used to be. We try to blame it on Vince but Vince has been looney for half a century. It’s the fans that have changed. Thank god HHH ignores them.
@An Asshole especially if people watched the post press conference. Hhh & Roman stated this storyline just begun. They aren't serving fast food he said.they want the story to cook.so,after hearing, that I was like,okay
Rhea needs to learn how to sell. She kept being fresh no matter what Charlotte did to her.
I could not even understand the Bad Bunny spot, and I thought it was pointless and maybe only used to sell tickets to Backlash in PR. But IMO it was a shitty finish to a phenomenal match.
Really all in all, I had expressed every single one of Jim’s opinions before I listened to this.
I thought the Charlotte vs Rhea match was one of the best matches I have ever seen. It was a thing of beauty. While I enjoyed the tag title match, this match was absolutely better.
WrestleMania 39 as a whole was the best it's been in years. Probably in the last 5-7 years as a whole. Night 1 easily outperformed Night 2 in my opinion. Favorite Entrance was Rey Mysterio's and my favorite Matches were Rhea/Charlotte and Men's IC Title Match.
Jim the goat off podcasts pure entertainment
Travis I just can’t with that Vince McMahon mustache artwork 😭
Lita, Becky and Trish Match was totally ok.. don’t get the hate.. Trish & Lita did better than every male legends that came back lol and Lita haven’t wrestled in a long time too, what is the fat man talking? This woman is 47 and looks absolutely awesome
Here we go!
Here comes the Money... Here comes the money! Money money money money money money money money money dolla dolla dolla dolla ching ching bling bling
lmao lil uzi burns, love when jim gets confused by the stuff the kids like.
def night 1 was the better show. there was probably a little more to talk about for night 2, but the wrestling and all the right endings came from night 1 as well the stuff i mostly cared about. honestly, if they had cut all the cruft out of night 1 (even that awful 6 woman tag team match despite having 4 actual stars), cut down on entrance lengths and just brought over the Roman vs Cody match (despite the ending), this would've been one of the best WMs i've seen in a long time. i'd even throw in the cameo by Shane just for actual laughs (hear that shane? that's father time telling you to never do this again!)
my friend liked the Gunther match too but i got bored at some point. just felt long, repetitive and pointless, even if Gunther has been great. just not a lot to write home about and i was already tired from watching night 1.
Im agree although im not mad about the cody roman result. It just seemed too quick and disney fairy tale-ish for cody to come in and win at WM after just debuting in the rumble. I get everyone is tired of roman’s reign but if he cracks 1000 days its gonna just put cody over even more when he beats him. Just my opinion
Night two just seemed off. Like the whole night.
@@kant5696 Debuting in the rumble? He won the thing and "debuted" at WrestleMania last year ,not the rumble.
I think people just assumed Cody was winning at mania because usually who wins the RR wins the belt at WM.
Night 1 was unbelievable
the superkick spam was a bit over the top
I can wait for night 2 review
RIP Bushwacker Butch
Honestly I loved Titus O’Neil on commentary idk if anybody else felt the same way
He was great, loved his commentary for the IC title match. Wouldn't mind having him at more ppvs
Call the police😅
He's a great selfless hype man on commentary
I love his taunt lmao the Orca sounds are great.
I think he found his calling foreal
Rhea vs Charlotte was great but was not nearly as good as Sasha vs Bayley’s ironwoman match. I only say that cause Brian said it was the best women’s match in NA ever.
Rhea/Charlotte was one of my most anticipated matches on the card behind Cody/Roman and Rey/Dom and it blew me away. Best women’s match I’ve ever seen easily, best match at WM39 easily, no women’s match will top it for years. Not even Rhea and Charlotte in a rematch. They caught lightning in a bottle. I don’t use this word often but this match was fantasy levels of good. I couldn’t have had a dream of a better women’s wrestling match.
Cena vs theory match proves what Brian being saying about cena and the STF 😂. Horrible chin lock
Rhea and Charlotte stole night 1 and wrestlemania overall. Disliked the main event since it was turning too much of a AEW styled match. Overkill, no sell/registering at times, too many kick outs, ref doesn't matter etc
Tiffany Stratton is going to immediately be in that stratosphere, with the top women.
Idk she seems like Charlotte meets Carmella….why does the main roster even need her??? At least until those two are gone she’ll make no sense and be a direct copy….she should wait another 2 years
They should keep Rhea with judgement day and have her as the leader and the rest help her keep the title
This was awesome 🎉
I'm 99% sure Excalibur came up with the name Helluva Kick.
WWE really should be paying Jim and TGBL. They’re like the shoe shine guy on Police Squad.
