Obviously Wrestlemania 1 was a success, and thus Wrestlemania 30 for 30 continues with our review of Wrestlemania 2 – What The World Is Coming To… a show that took place from three different arenas on the same day with three different main events. It is also a show that was a great example of what NOT to do and a show where – many mistakes were made, and the WWF definitely learned their lesson. We’ll talk the matches, the celebs, and the build-up PLUS MORE!

The time has come for the VERY FIRST edition of Wrestlemania 30 for 30 – as we go back to 1985 and review Wrestlemania I, but oh no, its a lot more than that.

We also talk about the year of 1985, Mr. T, television, celebrities, Ali, and MUCH more. Join Big D, Double G from FGB, and the Derrty White Boy Jason for our first trip down memory lane.

It’s hard to believe, but The Show of Shows has once again come and gone, as an epic and historic night has now turned quietly to dawn. For many in the WWE Universe, the past seven days have been somewhat of a blur, as the New York/New Jersey area was transformed into one giant theater to play host to The Grandest Stage of Them All.
One day later, though, and the WWE Universe is still buzzing — not only from the momentous events of last night, but also from the anticipation of everything that lies ahead, spinning out of The Show of Shows.
But before we officially turn the corner on that road departing WrestleMania, WWE.com presents its five favorite moments from WrestleMania 29.

Now, with the WWE Universe firmly planted upon The Road to WrestleMania 29, WWE.com has sifted through every celebrity appearance from every past Show of Shows. And after some (mostly) good-natured in-fighting, we’ve come up with the definitive list of the 25 Grandest Celebrities of WrestleMania.

I shake my head every time I read that someone inside the WWE locker room isn’t thrilled with the Rock headlining another Wrestlemania. I guess it’s possible that these are false rumors, that everybody is excited about the upcoming show in New York City. But as the old saying goes, “where there’s smoke, there’s fire.” Even going back to Miami last year there have been rumblings that Dwayne Johnson’s comeback has been met with resistance.
