Reflections on WrestleMania 39: A Bharc of Excitement and Surprise

WrestleMania 39 was a thrilling event that brought together legendary wrestlers and up-and-coming stars. While the atmosphere and energy of the event were undoubtedly something to celebrate, this reflection will focus on the matches themselves and the impact they had on viewers like myself.

Highlights and Surprises

The night began with a shock as Roman Reigns defeated Cody, a result that came as a pleasant surprise. However, the tag team titles for Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens was a plotline that didn't come as a shock, given their recent history and strong performances.

The rest of the event was packed with memorable matches and storylines. Here are some of the highlights that caught my attention:

Roman vs. Cody

The Roman vs. Cody match was a thrilling comeback for Roman Reigns. Having been written off by many due to injuries, seeing him dominate was a pleasant surprise. This match showcased Roman's wrestling prowess and determination to continue his legacy in the WWE.

Sammy Zayn and Kevin Owens vs. The Usos

The Sammy Zayn vs. Kevin Owens and the Andre The Giant Memorial Trophy match against The Usos was another standout. Kevin Owens dominated the match, demonstrating his strength and skill. The Usos, while strong individually, struggled to maintain consistency as a tag team, which made their loss all the more satisfying.

Rhea Ripley vs. Charlotte Flair

Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair's match was both suspenseful and satisfying. One of the best aspects of WrestleMania is the storytelling, and this match was no exception. Rhea Ripley's growth as a character and her unwavering determination to take the title were on full display. While the match showcased Charlotte's incredible athleticism, Rhea's performance was the highlight of the night.

Damage Control vs. Triple H and Kane

I had high hopes for Trish Stratus, Lita, and Becky Lynch, as their feud with Damage Control was set to bring back the legacy of the early WWE. However, the match did not quite live up to expectations. Damage Control, while employing good heap tactics, struggled to put on a solid performance. This was partly due to the difficulty in executing a cohesive strategy without a strong front man. Becky Lynch, despite her impressive athleticism, seemed to lack the finishing moves to truly dominate the ring.

Liz and Trish vs. Iyo Kelly and Love

The match between Liz and Trish vs. Iyo Kelly and Love was a technical marvel but lacked the physicality that some wanted to see. Iyo Kelly's technical skills were on full display, but her inability to fight effectively in the ring as a single opponent was a significant drawback. Despite her skill, she could not rely on fight blood or speed, which may be her downfall in future matches.

Impact and Future Plotlines

The matches at WrestleMania 39 left me eager for future developments. Storylines for Rhea Ripley, Kevin Owens, and others are in motion and promise to bring new excitement to the WWE. The matches showcased the evolution of these wrestlers and their characters, making the upcoming storylines all the more intriguing.

Final Thoughts

WrestleMania 39 was a rollercoaster of emotions, with moments of triumph and disappointment. While there were surprises and standout performances, the event reinforced the importance of quality storyline development in making a PPV memorable. As always, WWE's ability to weave together entertaining matches with engaging storylines continues to draw fans in and ignite a passion for wrestling that transcends generations.
