-- WWE WrestleMania 30 PPV Reax

Mike Booble of Springfield, Ore. (9.0): Best Match: Bryan-Triple H. Worst Match: Taker-Lesnar. It was the worst match from a pure wrestling standpoint. No real high spots other than finishers and was below the pace of methodical. But it gave us, whether we wanted it or not, the biggest shock in WWE history. I believe it's right up there with Marty Jannetty going through the Barber Shop window and the Montreal Screwjob. We may not like it but it something you'll never forget. Bryan finally got the payoff the WWE Universe was pining for, albeit in a more subdued way. They built stars for the future while seemingly burying the past - it was a great way to kick off a flawless stream on the Network.

Derek Daniel of Indianapolis, Ind. (8.5): Best Match: Triple Threat WWE World Hvt. Championship.
Worst Match: Divas Championship. So, like everyone else who was watching last night, whether in person, on cable or on the WWE Network, I too was stunned by The Undertaker's loss. When the ref hit the mat for the third time, my hand covered my mouth for what seemed like forever. I couldn't believe they gave the "Defeat the Streak" title to Brock. But, I must say I have not been that surprised by a match outcome in quite sometime. So, though it was hard to watch, it made me believe again that "anything can happen." ... Daniel Bryan put on a show last night that hasn't been seen in a while. I was as excited about his title win as I was sad about Taker's loss. That, my friends, is great entertainment. Setting aside my feelings, WWE did a great job last night. Also, even though the Divas match as a whole wasn't great, a few spots by Natalya, Tamina, and even the Bella Twins were very nice... Finally, I watched WM30 on the WWE Network on my iPad hooked to my TV via an HDMI cable and adapter. I must say, I only counted about five or so 3-5 second video glitches. Otherwise, I am super-pleased I bought the Network! Well worth it to see the end of an era and beginning of a new one!

Keith Sterling of Albuquerque, N.M.: Most of the matches went as we knew they would. One surprise was the winner of the Andre Battle Royal, and A.J. retaining her title was no surprise because the rules of the match were so far against her. Of course, The Streak ending was the huge surprise of the night. Daniel Bryan winning the title was no surprise, but how we got there was.

Patrick Burns, PWTorch reader: Need to just drop a quick defense/question for the Lesnar-Taker match. How can people complain about a part-timer beating The Streak when the owner of the Streak works one match a year? Lesnar was the right choice to do it because he is a legit badass. Former champ and former UFC champ; one of the most athletic people to ever wrestle for WWE. Can anyone really tell me why not Lesnar?
