-- WWE WrestleMania 30 PPV Reax

Mike Omansky, PWTorch correspondent (8.0): Best Match: Undertaker-Lesnar. Worst Match: Divas. Excellent show, overall. While the wrestling in the Bryan-Triple H match was obviously better, the shock value of the Brock Lesnar win, and fan reaction to the finish, was amazing... The triple threat match was good, except for the predictable Authority interference and "evil" referee... The battle royal was good toward the end, and Cesaro moves up with his win... Bray Wyatt was interesting as always, but needs to beat Cena back to stay on top for a while.

Liam Renner of Bel Air, Md.: Best Match: Bryan vs. Batista vs. Orton. Worst Match: Divas. Wow, what a show. I think as far as memorable moments and fun, this has got to be one of the best Manias ever. Daniel Bryan channeled his inner Bret Hart and managed to wrestle two great matches on the same show (and, do not undercut Orton and Batista's performances either!)... The battle royal was fun, Cena and Wyatt had some of the best psychology and storytelling I can ever remember seeing, and then there was the Streak match. I think people, based on build-up and lack of heat, legitimately thought there was no chance of the Streak ending. I sure didn't. We can argue from now until the end of time on whether Brock was the right guy, but they can get a lot of mileage out of him beating the Streak as far as Heyman's promos go. I guess the old cliche is true: All good things must come to an end. When it's all said and done, tonight ended with a great match that reminded me how much fun wrestling can be. And really that's all I could ever ask for!

Forrest Mahaffey, PWTorch reader: If I were at WrestleMania, this would've been the first time that I threw garbage into the ring. I can accept any full-time, talented wrestler beating The Undertaker at Mania, but not the part-timer Brock Lesnar. I haven't liked Lesnar since he left WWE, but to have him beat the Streak makes me believe that WWE is out-of-touch with their audience.

Josh Lavian of New York City (8.0): You can’t review WM30 without talking about the end of The Streak first. I’ll simply say that my eyes bulged out at the three count, with my brain actually pausing to check if it was correctly processing what my eyes were registering. The only reasoning I can see for doing something so drastic (and, seemingly, so wasteful) is that it just bought WWE a lifetime of having it over the fans. No one can ever be sure of how the outcome of a match will be. Ever... As for the rest of the show, great opening segment with the Legends to put over what a milestone this event was... Bryan-Hunter was a very good match, but what was up with all the spot-calling? I saw and heard them do it - no joke - two dozen times. It was shockingly blatant. Finally, kudos to WWE (and much respect to Cesaro) for such a great battle royal. I believe this was their way of making up for this year’s awful Rumble, and Andre smiled down on the ring from Heaven when Cesaro pulled off that fantastic WrestleMania moment. A very good show, overall, but there was a very visceral, emotionally-unpleasant feeling in me (and from what I heard, the live fans) in the arena after Taker’s loss, which put somewhat of a damper on the rest of the show.
