Wrestlemania Rewind Discussion Thread

**Hollywood Dook** · 05-29-2014, 08:05 AM

Wrestlemania Rewind airs on the WWE Network every Tuesday night at 10 PM EST and features a look back at special Wrestlemania matches, usually with comments on those who were involved, those who it inspired, and others on the build up, the execution, and the aftermath and effect those matches had on sports entertainment. It's pretty dope. Episodes thus far include:

The Mania Begins (Hulk Hogan and Mr T. vs. Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff)
Hulk vs. Andre (Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant)
The Austin Era Begins (Steve Austin vs. Shawn Michaels)
The Champ is Here (John Cena vs. The Big Show; John Cena vs. JBL)
Hart and Desire (Bret Hart vs. Owen Hart; Bret Hart vs. Yokozuna)
Game Changer (Triple H vs. Chris Jericho)
Mr. Wrestlemania Returns (Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho)
Icon vs. Icon (The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan)
The Money Match (The Big Show vs. Floyd Mayweather)
Macho Madness (Randy Savage vs. Ted Dibiase)
The Mega Powers Explode (Randy Savage vs. Hulk Hogan)
Wrestlemania Is Jericho (Chris Jericho vs. Jimmy Snuka, Roddy Piper, and Ricky Steamboat; Chris Jericho vs. Edge)
Heaven, Hell, and Heartbreal (Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels)
Motor City Main Event (John Cena vs. Shawn Michaels)
Latino Heat (Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle)
Breaking the Bank (CM Punk's MITB matches; Wrestlemania 24 and Wrestlemania 25)

This show isn't as good as Countdown and other shows. But I still really like it and I think it's under talked about.

Didn't care at all for the last episode. The Jericho vs. Legends segment wasn't really that memorable and Edge vs. Jericho sucked dick, so I thought that was a weird thing to highlight.

**Hollywood Dook** · 05-29-2014, 08:22 AM

I disagree entirely. Loved Jericho/Edge, not amazing but really good, and the Legends match was way more over than I remembered. Plus Steamboat man <3

This was prob in my top 3 so far.

**Tennessee Nicky** · 05-29-2014, 08:24 AM

Well yeah, Steamboat <3.

Idk. Maybe it's just my resentment for modern Jericho.

**Hollywood Dook** · 05-29-2014, 08:27 AM

Probably tbh. I love modern Jericho so it means more to me.

Mayweather/Show still tops it though

**Tennessee Nicky** · 05-29-2014, 08:32 AM

No that was definitely my favorite one so far, though I still have quite a couple to catch up on.

**Crocker** · 05-29-2014, 10:36 AM

I still need to see this weeks and Jericho/Michaels, I enjoyed last weeks with Savage and Hogan.

its a shame well never get the WM XX main event on the show.

**Bad News Tommy** · 06-04-2014, 06:44 PM

Has anyone checked out the new one yet? Taker vs Michaels. Such a good edition. Seeing Undertaker interviewed out of character is pretty cool and I like how they cover everything about their history together including real life friction between them in the locker room back in the day.

Really dope.

I saw some clips of HBK taking about it when I watching something on the network, I just might need to check it out. Is it talking about just the WM 25 war, or both 25 and 26 matches included?

Just 25 I'm pretty sure. I'm still watching it though.

Digging into the WM rewind right now, thanks for the heads up Tommy.

**Hollywood Dook** · 06-04-2014, 07:01 PM

Watching this soon. This show needs more love.

**Bad News Tommy** · 06-04-2014, 07:28 PM

The behind the scenes footage of them getting applauded backstage after the match and hugging was just the best.

Rewind is awesome.

**Kairi HoHo** · 06-04-2014, 07:55 PM

Wow I would say that's the best WM Rewind WWE has done, I want the WM 26 up next lol. Thank you WWE for showing us them backstage hugging. Man that match is probably in a small list of matches I still get chills for no matter how many times I've seen it. Interesting with all the controversy with the ending of Lesnar/Taker over the streak, I wonder if people of taken HBK defeating the streak in the end than Lesnar?

**Bad News Tommy** · 06-05-2014, 12:36 PM

Like Countdown, this could run and run. So many awesome matches/stories in Wrestlemania history that still remain to be covered.

**Kairi HoHo** · 06-05-2014, 12:44 PM

Here's hoping WWE one day does one with Trish Stratus/Mickie James one of the few Diva matches with a title on the line, and was given alot of stock into the match and storyline.

All the great Wrestlemania matches over the years and you want that?

In all seriousness though it's probably one of very few diva matches that actually deserves one.

**Tennessee Nicky** · 06-05-2014, 12:46 PM

Man, even though I'm critical of those matches, that was an amazing rewind. Made me actually appreciate them again.

**Kairi HoHo** · 06-10-2014, 12:21 PM

Well it's Cena vs HBK WM Rewind from WM 23 and I look forward to seeing that tonight. Now I must agree HBK has done a better job in hiding his weaknesses over the years. You gotta admit Shawn, he is a great worker yes, but the character he displays can get annoying at times. At times I think of those weak ass early 90's characters you, yourself didn't like and wouldn't try with him.
