WRESTLEMANIA XXX

By The_Enigma

Arguably WrestleMania 30 was one of the biggest shows in WWE history that really had the pressure to deliver something spectacular. Heading into the show there were a lot of variables that were left riding on what just might be. For starters, WrestleMania 30 signalled the entering of a new era in professional wrestling as this would become the first ever show to debut live on the much-hyped WWE network. The stream simply had to be flawless and the show had to leave a lasting impression with fans.

Also adding to the mix, fans witnessed chaos amongst some of the roster in the build up to the most important show of the year as we were left with a mixed bag of poor booking, miss-management, wrestlers walking out

and those that arrive for a fast pay-day who steal the limelight from those that deserve it. With Daniel Bryan being overlooked for months, CM Punk walking out just weeks before the event and the likes of Hulk Hogan and Batista returning, it certainly provided to be an interesting dynamic leading into the show.

WWE Tag Team Championship

Match

The Uso's Vs The Real Americans Vs Rybaxel Vs Los Matadores

Match Rating: *** 3/4

Although this was considered to be the pre-show match, it’s really pleasing to see the Tag Team Titles defended on the show. In the past 12-months, WWE have really started to get their acts together by building up a semi-decent tag-team division with the likes of The Rhodes Brothers, The Shield, The Uso’s and The Real Americans.

Although the outcome was slightly predictable, I thought all 4 teams really put a shift in to put on an enjoyable match that held a good pace through-out with some enjoyable spots worked into the routine. The Uso’s really have been on a roll inside the past 6-months and really can put on an entertaining match that appeals to all the audience. However the major talking point coming out of this match was Cesaro has he delivered the giant swing on his now ex-partner Jack Swagger which put an end to the Real Americans?
