Moments - Positives
There a few positive moments from this event, mainly Hulk Hogan regaining the World Heavyweight tile in quite a propaganda Iraq war match as well as the reuniting of Randy Savage and Miss Elizabeth after Savage looses the retirement match. The Virgil / Dibiase segment is well done and I enjoyed the WWF Tag Team title match.

Moments - Negatives
This is most certainly the worst Wrestlemania to date. The main event is average at best and unless you were a true American rooting for your country the whole feud was pretty awful. There are some totally random matches that are pretty poor (e.g. the Mountie vs Tito Santana before a Wrestlemania main event!!!) and I just thought it really did showcase a poor period in WWF history with a lot of talent looking too old and worn out to put on a good show.

Overall Summary
Not a fan of this Wrestlemania and I would say if there is one you could miss it is most likely going to be this one. A few segments stood out but overall nothing short of dissapointing.

SCORE = 5.0
