What an incredible two nights of actions WWE provided for Wrestlemaina 38. I had been out of the loop with WWE for a few months but thought i would watch Wrestlemaina Live and see the matches and what would catch my imagination and I was not disappointed. WWE delivered what Wrestlemaina should be a showcase of the biggest stars and the best wrestling to me I think it was one of the best Wrestlemaina's in recent years. I felt Wrestlemaina was paced out so well and you didn't feel burned out when you got to the end of the show or feel like you had seen the same things a million times over.

I began thinking recently what an amazing story Vince Mcmahon has and then I realised Vince McMahon is an amazing promoter but then I realised only at promoting wrestling. Vince has tried his hand at a few things since becoming so successful but all outside endeavours...
