[4.0] "The work wasn't terrible, and it's impressive that Rey can still go, but the best work in the world can't overcome shit booking. Why did the babyfaces have the greater numbers of outside support?"
[4.0] "I did not have high expectations for this match and it was not great, so I was right. It was a nice moment for the people there in person that two Philly legends were there. I did not expect it to be this match, but expected Jason Kelce to get involved with WrestleMania somehow."
[5.0] "I was going to give this 7/10. Even though this was just bunch of Mexican in a match cause HHH didn't know/care to book them better, these were still the best Mexican wrestlers this company has and all four delivered. Sure the crowd at this point was preserving their energy for the "next match" so they were only present when the Lucha wrestlers does incredible lucha moves, but it was still alright. Then, they had the audacity to bring two randos to the ring to interfere in the match for the babyfaces. I mean come on there is simple wrestling dos and don'ts to follow and this company finds a way to ruin it. I think Andrade was better off staying in the other company or go back to Mexico."
[5.0] "An excellently crafted heated dismantling of Mysterio from Escobar crowded and overwhelmed by poorly produced and choreographed chaos. Joaquin does his insane leaping dive from NXT again to lesser effect. Andrade and Dom also do good stuff but its overshadowed by "everyone gets a Mania moment" nonsense."
[3.0] "I despise non-wrestling personalities being involved in the finishes of matches, especially at WrestleMania. On top of that, Rey and Dom had a much better match at 'Mania 39. This was a disappointing step down for the otherwise fun feud between Rey and Dom."
[6.0] "Not bad but pretty forgettable despite some nice spots to watch. A pretty mediocre overbooking at the end with the intervention of two people I don't know and who have no connection with Rey Mysterio or Andrade. (3*)"
[8.0] "***3/4 (7.5/10) You could definitely call this match WrestleMania filler. That being said, this was fun, even though the involvement of the Eagles "Legends" was just okay and clearly to appease the Philly natives, which is fine, and I personally dont have a problem with it, but many foreign fans have voiced their opinions of not being a fan of their involvement, which you can understand since Kelce and Johnson had absolutely nothing to do with the LWO story. There were definitely a thousand better ways they could have ended this. But the in-ring work kicked a**, so I'll stop knocking it from here on out."
[4.0] "What was always going to be the "snack break" match of the night, it was exactly that. Nothing of note, good or bad, just very average and not Wrestlemania worthy. Hoped I would be proved wrong and turn out to be a banger, but alas was not. Would have been excused if the development that would go on to happen with Carlito and the build had happened, but nothing did. Also hated the ending, and I am a NFL fan but just cheapened the whole thing even more."
[7.0] "It was destined to be an average match, but the talents in this match showed up and delivered more than expected. There's also a fun spot with Joaquin Wilde slingshot. Hovever I hate the ending, because it was just a cheap way to give Philly something to cheer but it made international fans confused."
[7.0] "Quite simply, this was a good Lucha style match. It was unfortunate that Dragon Lee was the man to miss out after being involved in the build up but a fine way to spend 15 minutes of your day."
[6.0] "I would be okay with this match being on the card but I expected a heel turn or something at least not the Philadelphia freaking Eagles. Overall still a good match."
[7.0] "Forgettable, every time I think of the Wrestlemania card I forgot this match and I was there... But when I do remember it, I do remember how fun it was. Nothing special, however."
[6.0] "Not gonna lie, the only reason this match was here was to get Andrade and the Mysterio Family on the card. It was kinda just a filler match. Wasn't terrible but kinda meh."
[6.0] "very disappointed that they did not give a very big tag team match with the participation of all Latin wrestlers, well it came out quite standard, a lot of similar matches we have already seen on Smackdown"
[4.0] "It's a fine tag match with all men involved, but it didn't feel like a match for WrestleMania and just there for both reliving the Rey Vs Dom feud and guest appearance of Lane Johnson and Jason Kelce."
[7.0] "I found myself quite frankly taken in by this match, which was surely the one I was least expecting on this first evening. The talent of the athletes present, in particular the formidable Andrade (since his return), carried me away and distracted me for just the right amount of time. Very nice moment. Maybe not unforgettable, but entertaining as hell."
[4.0] "[2.0*] Yeah, for a Mania. I think this was pretty damn meh. It had no aura, no emotion and looked exactly like a midcard SmackDown match. The best spots of the whole thing were made from people that were not on the match, like the dive from Joaquin Wilde."
[5.0] "This is where stuff started to go wrong in the event, not a bad match, but the most weekly show match of the night, meant nothing for me. Andrade is undeniably a formidable wrestler, he was great here, stole the show, his moveset is awesome. The end of the match was an awful mess, I hated it, the referee was dumb as heel, too many people interfered, and although I'm a huge NFL fan and it was nice to see Kelce and Johnson making a little appearance here, the way it was done was terrible - {**1/2}"
[7.0] "A pretty solid Tag Match that JUST crosses that 7/10 mark for me. I thought, like the two previous matches, that everyone looked good here. Not everything was my favorite and I didn't really care for the interference that much since I'm not huge into football, but this was cool for what it was."
[6.0] "Another stupid, yet fun match. I'm a huge Andrade fan so seeing him have a great time was enough for me. Finish was a bit silly but I get why it happened."
[7.0] "Rey Mysterio is a true 1 of 1 superstar in wrestling history and every time he is in the ring with Dom it is always must see TV. Andrade showed out in impressive fashion and a fun cameo at the end"
[3.0] "Yok be oglusum hasann naslsn ne yapyorsun bakalm ne kadar çok sey oldu mu bu kistiyorum merhaba iyi günler kolay gelsin canm sen bilirsin tabi efendim hemen hemen her seyi çok güzel olmus eline ne geçiyor günün kutlu olsun nice saglkl mutlu adar çokta"
[4.0] "A whatever match between LWO and Legado. Rey and Dominik have an oustanding chemistry as always, Andrade and Santos are very talented but this didn't feel like a Mania match at all. Felt like the match was just there to get the guests pop."
[5.0] "That ending was horrific. A feud that was carrying over from Wrestlemania 39, a heel turn that everybody wanted and loved, derailed by Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson, a pure Philadelphia pop that a large portion of fans would absolutely have no idea who the hell these 2 beefy men were."
[2.0] "Boring. This match was trash. 4 wrestlers that are all super yawn, then add that with a trash ending? Why did we need Lane Johnson & Jason Kelcie out there? Probably the worst match of the WrestleMania weekend. Skippable match that you don't need to watch when you look back at WrestleMania XL matches."
[4.0] "I have a lot to say about this match and most of it is negative. First off, Im glad that Joaquine Wilde had a Wrestlemania moment but the fact that its the only memorable spot in this entire match that includes a father and son feud and superstars such as Rey and Andrade is unbelievable. Also Dom and Rey shouldve only met one on one later in the match and it shouldve been a big match feel stare down before they started wrestling since if you had no idea about their feud you would think theyve already wrestled loads of times before. My biggest complaint though is the fact that Dom and Santos lost. Rey and Andrade did not need to win whereas now Dom is 0-2 to his dad at wrestlemania. And to top it all off it ended with a lame-ass attack from some football players that are only relevant in Philly and not to anyone outside of the US. I get that they wanted a crowd pop but they shouldve done it in a different match and not in a literal blood feud. Bad booking but some decent in ring work makes this match a 4/10."
[6.0] "6 This was a decent match, about what I expected. Weirdly positioned in the show though. I was sure this was going to be the opening match and not sure why it wasn't as it was the perfect match to get the crowd warmed up."
[6.0] "With this match the weak central part of this first night began. It's not exactly a bad match, but you end up watching it passively, without paying too much attention. Some spots are nice, but my interest was very low. Then the ending with the interference from the two football players (and I don't even remember if they were football players or not) smacks of fanservice as an end in itself and ruined the atmosphere of the match. Pity."
[5.0] "This wasnt exactly the best match but it kind of served its purpose. The LWO, Legado and some random NFL players got involved and honestly the match should have been faction warfare instead of a simple tag match. The LWO got the win."
[6.0] "Hab zwar weder die Promo verstanden noch warum jetzt da wer wen hintergangen hat, abgesehen von den Mysterious natürlich, aber war n solides Match, auch wenns nicht an das Match ausm Vorjahr herankommt. Dominik hat sich wirklich stark entwickelt und der heel passt aktuell einfach viel besser als der face. Andrade sieht aktuell auch fit und stark aus wie nie zuvor. Die Spannung mit Vater und Sohn hätte man etwas besser aufbauen und gestalten können aber wrestlerisch geht das Match in Ordnung. Carlito hätte man n größeren Spot geben können aber dafür gab's ne Kelce Überraschung. Gebe solide 6 Punkte."
[3.0] "Es ist ja schön Rey Mysterio zu sehen. Aber das war ja gar nichts von allen anderen. Ein totales Chaos, quasi "Werbepauseholds" bei Wrestlemania und auch so kein besonderer Matchverlauf. Wirklich enttäuschend und das Ende auch komisch mit den Footballern."
[8.0] "Ich bin ein wirklich grosser Fan vom Luch Libre Style Wrestling. Dieses Match war wirklich sehr Actionreich und schnell. Könnte aber gerne noch etwas länger gehen. Im Kopf bleibt natürlich der Sling Shot Moment zu Schluss. Im grossen und ganzen aber 8 von 10 Punkten."
[5.0] "From a booking and storyline standpoint, the inclusion of Andrade and Dominick was really messy, but the match itself is serviceable. Andrade is by far the most captivating wrestler in the match, as he hasn't been overexposed on TV like everyone else in the LWO/LDP feud. Rey/Andrade's double perched body splash was brilliant, and nothing here was bad, but like so many matches in this never ending feud, it feels like a placeholder for some far away, unknown conclusion. (Hindsight would reveal this was but a footnote to get to Carlito's heel turn, but the match itself at WrestleMania never felt big nor conclusive enough to even hint at bigger things. This never quite escalates to a match you couldn't just see on TV, except when Andrade was on the screen. The definition of a mid card match: in fact, now that I think about it, having this tag match immediately follow the six-pack tag probably was a mistake. The finish inexplicably featured tow gigantic white men in luchador masks leap out of the crowd to help LWO, and if it meant anything for wrestling it might have been a terrific reveal and moment, but no: it's just football stars trying to get themselves over. Honestly, a shame. I'd tune in to see these guys try to do Lucha moves, for better or worse lol. The worst part is that you just knew the interference ending would mean these two were going to feud for another 25 years or so. Would've been a 6 without the ending it had."
[5.0] "That was just a match. Nothing bad, nothing good, the most average tag team match you will see. Could they do better on a Mania card? Yes. Was it worth my time? No. Was it terrible? Also no. I wish they would go back to keeping matches like this off the card, a Mania should be special from top to bottom, there shouldn't be random stuff on the card. I personally do not have any issue with the Eagles players being there, that was at least something that made the match less useless."
[6.0] "I love Rey Mysterio. He's one of my favourite performers. I also love Dominik Mysterio, who's one of my favourite little shits to ever grace the ring. Put them on opposite sides and magic happens; usually. This one was just okay. Dom felt thrown into this match for the sake of heat, which was okay but there was nowhere near the same level of reaction as there was at 39 in their match. Andrade impressed in this, as did Joaquin Wilde's insane springboard spot which I gawp at each time I see it. I think if I had booked it, I would have gone with Santos and Rey in singles action with both groups at ringside. I'm not much of an NFL guy so when the two Eagles players interfered I didn't know who they were. Luckily my sister's more into American sports than I am and immediately pointed out Johnson and Kelce."
[2.0] "Besides the Misteryos, who were any of these people? When the football players in luchador masks jumped the barricade I had no idea who they were, I am not much of a football player myself. However, I must say even then I cared more about the masked luchadors than I did any of the people actually involved in this match."
[6.0] "From a story perspective, maybe they should've just gone with Rey vs Santos in singles. Seems like the stuff with Dom was thrown together and there was much less heat between he and Rey compared to last year. With that said, Andrade was fired up and looked awesome. I've never seen a double stacked cross body so that was cool. That Wilder springboard will never not be awesome. The Eagles cameos, though totally nonsensical in the story, was fun for me as an Eagles' fan and I appreciate when WWE makes a point to lean into to the city they're visiting. Nothing spectacular, but a fine filler match after two great matches to start the show."
[5.0] "First of all, removing Dragon Lee from this was a terrible booking decision. Now, the match itself was the definition of "mid"! not good or bad, just a match that came and went and no one remembers anymore. (**1/2)."
[4.0] "The ending ruined a match that was not that good but was adequate for the midcard. It was average match, Andrade was pretty inspired and the spots on the outside made this enjoyable."
[5.0] "It was a fine match. The match started out fine with the talent in the match showing. It got chaotic very quickly with the ref making no attempt to gain order. Finish was clearly made to pop the home crowd with the Eagles O-Line interference."
[5.0] "This match really wouldve felt better inclined to have been featured on Raw. Having Dom be involved feels pointless and adds an unneeded wrinkle into Dom and his fathers rivalry. I also feel like the wrong team won and while Im glad the Philly crowd popped for Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson, those two had no business being involved in the finish of the match aside from cheap pops."
[4.0] "Simply not a match worthy of being on WrestleMania, even with two nights. They didn't do anything here to really standout. The celebrity spot was about the only thing that seemed to matter."
[8.0] "This was a really underrated and under appreciated match from this years mania. People take Rey Mysterio For granted. He still for the most part somehow hasnt lost a step and still looks great. He is close to my favorite wrestler of all time and this match was fitting for the setting"
[6.0] "Another expected mid match that turned out to be quite fun : principaly due to Andrade (great decision to bring him in), some cool lucha spots by LWO and Legado del Fantasma. Decent performance by Santos Escobar but not enough yet to earn Wrestlemania worthy spot"
[5.0] "Felt like a TV match. I'm not the biggest fan of this LWO stuff, so from the get-go this would've had to do some extra work for get me interested. Ending with the Eagles players was random, but if the Philly crowd like it... more power to them?"
[5.0] "Decent match. This follows the standard tag match formula (babyfaces start off hot, cutoff, heel on Rey, hot tag to Andrade) until the finishing sequence were all the secondaries get their shit in and Kelce and Johnson get involved. This is absolutely fine but not special. The work is fine and between everyone they do some nice spots, but this lacks the time and weight to be anything more than a fine tag match with a cool moment at the end with the two Eagles legends. Babyfaces get a quick win with the help of the local legends, it's that kind of match really"
[6.0] "This match was good, but this match works for every other event except for WrestleMania. It just felt like every other LWO vs LDP match. The people inside the ring do nice high flying moves while the people outside do crazy things for no reason. This whole match just seemed rushed, Andrade and Dom added last minute made the story seem irrelevant. There needed to be something additional story wise to make this match mean something. The Eagles offensive linemen were a cool addition, but just goes to show you what kind of match this was, one that was just for fun. (6/10)"
[5.0] "As mid as you can get. Nothing special happened. Everyone did what they were supposed to but I can't say with any certainty that it's going to be a match I'll watch back. It was fine. Just fine."
[6.0] "Schade das Dragon Lee hier nicht wrestlen durfte, Andrade ist zwar ganz nett, aber Dragon Lee hätte die Erfahrung und den Moment mehr verdient. Rein von der Wichtigkeit der Matches her würde man dieses hier ganz nach unten packen und die Story war zwar da, aber in meinen Augen war das eher ein Teil 2 des Matches zwischen Rey und Dom vom letzten Jahr. Immerhin gab es ganz nette Moves zu sehen und am Ende gewannen auch die Babyfaces(***)."
[5.0] "Mid match with two great spots and a horrible ending to it also with them not putting over the young talent but that doesn't matter because this was just a mid match."
[6.0] "This was a fun match during the first portion of it , they had some great athletic and high flying spots , Andrade looked really good and he has a amazing arsenal with a good double moonsault.Dominik was a good heel as always , and I enjoyed the lwo shenanigans at ringside. Joaquin was a highlight of this match with his incredible dive , he gets distance on it and it looks amazing. The ending was bad , it didn't make sense to have random football players from the Philadelphia eagles interfere in the match. This is a high profile feud , and that was a silly and confusing finish only done to pop the crowd by seeing the eagles players, but this should have had a more personal and fitting conclusion. They ruined the concept of this , this should of just been these four men going out and having a story this was solid in ring though."
[5.0] "Das war alles total verwaschen und fühlte sich einfach nach House Show an! Das Ende war natürlich ganz nett, aber dieses wenig wichtige Match konnte hier nicht begeistern. Mir bleibt hier wirklich nichts im Kopf... Der Konflikt zwischen den mysterios wirkt lauwarm und irgendwie verschwendet"
[6.0] "Fun little match. Good place on the card and right amount of time given. The NFL players thing was cringe but ok, wrestlemania moment I guess. Now I hope we get to end the storyline of Rey mysterio getting betrayed, as its been nearly 2 years, getting a bit tired of it. 3*"
[6.0] "Certainly not the most memorable Wrestlemania match but a decent enough match all the same, the pacing here felt just about right and it was a fun match to watch."
[4.0] "Caramba, that was nothing. There are basically far too many people at the ring. This allows for the odd flying moves into the crowd, but it's all extremely weakly structured. Rey takes his usual isolation, the others deliver the basics and Andrade is probably the only seriously motivated worker. It's not far off your average TV match then. And when Kelce and Johnson are then senselessly put under luchador masks to decide the match decisively, I can't see more than four points being possible. A shame, but somehow also predictable."
[6.0] "Solid match but seemed to fall a little flat. MVP of the match had to be Andrade and my personal favorite spot was the electric chair dual crossbody to the outside. The crowd seemed really into it probably with a little help from the Eagles players who came in for the save at the end. Solid 3 star match."
[5.0] "A two spot match with the electric chair cross body (which i loved) and the springboard. Andrade and Rey are great so it was a fine filler match, Certainly a huge step down from om and Rey from last year."
[6.0] "I dont watch the weekly shows really, but I do keep up with whats going on and it feels like these two teams have been feuding forever. Some cool lucha things here, and the Rey/Dominik stuff continues to be awesome. Wilde did that awesome dive where he floats in the air, so that gets a thumbs up from me.Dislike the Eagles so I could care less about Lane Johnson and Jason Kelce showing up. Good match overall tho.***1/4"
[5.0] "it was a Tag Team so it might not be logical to compare it to the last year match between Rey and Dom, but it was really weaker. all of them were performing well until the end of the match, which was a terrible and senseless ending that ruined it. Santos and Dom should've won this! (**1/2)"
[5.0] "I wanted to like this match more, but I knew coming in it would just be alright, loved Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson appearance as an Eagles fan. 5/10"
[5.0] "Average macth, didnt really care about this one, more like a to macth, their was a great leap from I dont know who I from the ropes about 50 yards into the walkway was what it was"
[3.0] "On paper this could have been excellent given some of the talent involved but we know this was basically booked as filler to eat up time and that's exactly what it ended up being. A glorified TV match that got some more guys on the card with little to be invested in in terms of story or in-ring action."
[6.0] "This storyline feels a bit overbooked. First Carlito, then Dragon Lee, all leading to Andrade being in the match. It seems like a bit of a clusterfuck with what's happening with LWO, and I hope we see more clarity soon. As for the match itself, there's not much to say. It was okay, just another TV match."
[7.0] "Andrade & Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio & Santos Escobar fand ich für das was es war gut. Ich habe mich unterhalten gefühlt und es worden einem gute Lucha Action geboten. Das mit den Footballspielern hätte nicht sein müssen, aber sowas gibt es ja irgendwie immer bei WM (*** 1/4)."
[5.0] "[3.0*] Decent match, with some good but boring interactions at times. They should have given Andrade and Santos more space to exchange moves with each other. Dominik was once again responsible for great reactions from the crowd, as he always does, his character work is very good. The appearance of Lane Johnson and Jason Kelce were very funny and cool and one of the best moments of the match."
[7.0] "Im surprised at all the low ratings for this match. While yes I agree the match probably couldve just happened on a Smackdown and the random interference was a bit tacky, the in ring action was really fun. Andrade reminded me why he was so fantastic, Rey did his usual, Escobar was better than usual, and Dom did his heel job well. The flippy shit is all stuff Ive seen before, but theres a reason its repeated. Because its fun."
[6.0] "Despite the iffy finish, the match wasn't bad. Everything else was either standard or above. Andrade was definitely the standout performer, I believe (really liked the stacked crossbody dive). Kind of hoping this Rey/Dominik stuff is over for a while though. [3.00]"
[8.0] "This was great I don't even know what everyone is on about. The only questionable thing was the two football players not a single soul outside of the USA knows showing up for no reason, but otherwise this was so much fun, the double crossbody and Wilde's tope will live rent free in my head for days to come."
[5.0] "Das Match könnte tatsächlich bei Smackdown laufen. Es war in Ordnung. Leid tut mir Dragon Lee. All seine Spots gingen an Adrade. Es hätte auch besser sein können. Schade das man hier nicht komplett in die Lucha Historie eintauchte. Ein Hauch von Lucha Underground hatte zumindest Santos. Was suchten eigentlich die NFL Stars da. Wir hatten doch schon mehr LWO Mitglieder. Wie schon geschrieben. Hätte wesentlich besser sein können. Am Ende erinnert man sich nur an die NFL Stars und ein paar Andrade Spots."
"People rate this fight too low. The action in the ring was great, fast action, heavy punches and twists. However, the ending leaves you unsatisfied. But you can't judge a fight only by its ending. If I had the option to rate this fight, I would rate it 8. It was good, one of the better ones on the 1st day"
[5.0] "Very uninteresting match. This felt like it could've just taken place on Smackdown. Action was perfectly fine throughout, with Andrade and Escobar standing out the most here. Joaquin Wilde also did his cool springboard dive thing bear the end where he flies about 10 miles. Crowd were basically silent throughout, and the part where the two random football guys came out to help the faces was stupid. Overall, this was basically a pointless time filler that would've been better suited to take place on an episode of TV rather than at Wrestlemania. **3/4"
[2.0] "Honestly? One of the worst matches I've seen recently. The wrestling itself wasn't bad, but the way this fight ended takes all the enjoyment out of it for me. Rey wins against Dominik Mysterio for the second time in a row and I'm tempted to say that he's burying Dominik's character. The fact that some random trash from another sport stepped in to help Rey made no sense at all. I also consider Carlito's lack of Heel turn to be a big minus .I bet that he will probably go through this heel turn sooner or later, but I would still prefer it on wm."
[2.0] "It was bad. This match was boring, lame, badly put together. Doninik Mysterio is a very bad wrestler. Rey Mysterio has lost his talent, he doesn't sell enough anymore, he tries offenses he can't apply correctly and that he can't make look credible. Andrade ans Santos are good but this was just an uninterresting, boring, match with no reason to exist, no real heat, no sense."
[6.0] "What can we say here? Absolutely no one cared about this match, and it was done in one and a half weeks. He's only here to give a slot at Mania to important people. At the same time, there was no thought about a thorough buildup. The match itself, by the way, turned out to be good, if you take into account all the nuances. What I mean is that, based on everything they had, they probably showed their maximum. They have no plot, they were given a meager amount of time, but in the ring they did what they could. Although even here the writers figured out how to ruin everything, which is why they came up with such a gorgeous ending. By the way, this was the worst use of celebrity in my memory. I dont know who these people are, why they came out and for what reason they helped Ray and Andrade. It looked too random. It's a shame for the performers who really tried."
[4.0] "Another match where it felt like they just wanted to get as many people as they could on the card. Should not be a WrestleMania match. The Wilde spot was fantastic. Rest had me looking through social media as it couldn't been me invested. This could have happened on the main event of RAW or Smackdown."
[5.0] "Overbooked, forgettable, and boring. Dominik needs to get feuds that don't involve his dad or no one is gonna believe him as a star in the future. Interference getting a face the win never sits right with me and the lack of crowd reaction to the football players really didn't help. Some cool spots but nothing super memorable, this match could've been a TV match, it barely feels PPV tier let alone Wrestlemania tier. No part of it was bad, but it also just wasn't that good, the sort of match that just moves right through you. 2.5/5, average."
[3.0] "Average at best, until the two random football dudes show up at the end. Then it becomes bad. At least this gave me hope to see a PLE match between Andrade and Santos in the future. The involvement of Rey Mysterio is obviously logical, but I can't say that about Dominik. The fact that he still has to wrestle his father to be interesting a year later is kinda worrisome. This was the least interesting feud by a mile going to Wrestlemania and the match was doomed to be boring."
[8.0] "That was a good match. Double Cross Body from Andrade and Rey Mysterio was awesome and the rest of the match was good too. The match was very overbooked, but it's no surprise with the amount of people involved. The ending was a bit goofy, looked like a tag team debut from the territories' days, but it was a celebrity involvement, which is to be expected - it is Wrestlemania, after all, and it didn't stand out that match when the whole match is overbooked."
[6.0] "A nice, 100% Mexican match, with a victory for the good guys that was quite predictable. On the other hand, the two big guys who helped Rey and Andrade, I have no idea who they are and I honestly don't care since apparently they're American football players. And the spot of Joaquin Wilde taking off like a rocket is always great to watch. [***]"
[6.0] "I thought this was a perfectly fine match. I will preface this by saying I'm a huge mark for lucha and all these guys. I don't think they had the match of the night (Sami v Gunther says hello). Andrade is the real, Mysterio has always been a legend. Santos and Dom were the perfect chicken-scratch heels. Dom is so fun to watch. I predict Rey and Dom will be on the same team next year, possibly against an imploding Judgement Day. I really appreciate how much room WWE has been giving the Hispanic/lucha contingent. I didn't love the ending, but it was for the local crowd and they popped big."
[4.0] "Double crossbody was really cool. A lot of basic tag stuff that works pretty well. This isn't a classic or necessarily great but it's just really basic tag work that makes sense. Dominic while Miles better than he once was when he first came up is still fairly weak in the ring. We do get a lame valet spot that completely misses and looks bad. Interference from two masked behemoths lead to the baby face victory. The big boys turn out to be eagles players. This was fun, inoffensive, but ultimately unremarkable. *3/4"
[6.0] "I really liked it but you cant helpn but feel like this could have been one on one and Andrade (while a welcome addition) still felt forced in here. just simply overbooked. fun wrestling though"
[6.0] "Nothing huge, just a regular tag match for those, who they wanted to have a spot at WM, but didn't give a good story for it. Nothing much memorable here, except from a very creative Electric Chair into a Double Splash spot. Sad, that Dragon Lee didn't get the spot here, but It was fun to see Andrade"
[8.0] "Another fun match, MVPs were Andrade and Santos. I enjoyed the save at the end and everyone getting involved, this felt like the wackiness I expected from Wrestlemania. Best spot was when Rey got on Andrades shoulders and they did a crossbody. Wrestlemania is known for having cameos of sorts and if it you were going to squeeze in the eagles this was the match to do it."
[8.0] "dont know why this match is so low either. the wrestling was great. and i honestly forgot how good andrade is in the ring, his moves are so smooth and clean. and there was 2 spots i REALLY loved. Wilde getting tossed from the ropes going all the way to the stage ramp. that was awesome. and adrade and mysterio doing a double electric chair crossbody, I have NEVER seen that before. awesome match"
[7.0] "Just like in his singles match against Dominik a year ago, Rey Mysterio genuinely cared about this one and his energy was palpable. Everyone else involved clearly hold Mysterio in high regard, so everyone put their working boots, which made this a fun match - three very good pro-wrestlers and Dominik worked a simple, straight to the point ***1/2 (it ended up being a little worse than what they were aiming for though) match with a satisfying finish that was perfectly fit was it's place on the card."
[5.0] "Andrade & Rey pulled off a couple of cool tag team spots like the double crossbody, but otherwise this was pretty heatless and felt like a TV level match. Nothing at all to get excited about as Dominik continues to show why he'll always just be a gimmick rather than a legitimate wrestler. **3/4"
[5.0] "5.5 - Pretty cold, and a bit too try-hard. The double crossbody was very cool. The attempt at a 'WrestleMania' moment was cringe. The Eagles inclusion was a fun twist."
[5.0] "A totally okay whatever match with a stupid finish. Nothing wrong with most of it. Its a match Ill have virtually forgotten about before night two begins. But the interference ending from [LOCAL PRO ATHLETE] leaves a lot to be desired"
[8.0] "This was crisp, flowed well, and had some feeling behind it. Dominek Mysterio looked as good as he has in a WWE ring so far. Santos Escobar is a top-tier villain. Andrade is a stud and a boon to any ring and locker room he's in. Rey being in a tag match helped his performance a lot and he played all the Hall-of-Fame hits he can play. There were some nice grace notes - Dirty Dom stopping his dad from belt-whipping him was cool. This feud has moved beyond the "deadbeat dad" thing and that helped symbolize it. The Joaquin Wilde stunt was a little forced but still fun to watch. I didn't mind the football men - it's a 'Mania tradition and this version of it was harmless and not annoying. The good guys won this particular battle, but this isn't over. A potential Carlito betrayal looms, setting up even numbers and promising this conflict could last well into the year. Rey still needs to beat Santos, Vega needs her revenge on Lopez. There's more to do here."
[5.0] "WWE's "priority booking" as I call it really shot this match in the foot. The first half was so good and wonderful. well paced, great spots, but by the time every member on the outside started just doing random moves to each other it broke down and lost all momentum and then... the face team... had masked guys come and cheat for them? What? Rey Meysterio needed 2 hulking white guys from the local football team in order to beat his son? What kind of ending does that set? Really disappointed by the end."
[4.0] "Wasn't a great match to be honest. Firstly, it felt like Dominik Mysterio was just thrown in there because he had absolutely nothing going into the show and the easy way out is to just put him in a match against Rey. It seemed like just a normal tag match you'd see on a weekly episode of WWE, was nothing special. Andrade really showed what he could do though, felt as if he was the best guy in the match by a landslide."
[5.0] "I don't like the fact they book a TV like match for a PPV, specially WrestleMania, but it truly pisses me off how much they missed on a huge chance of telling a great story with this match. First of all, this was all about Rey vs Santos. Dom didn't have anything to do here at all and his inclusion was just to make this more interesting for the casuals, nothing else. Even with that forced inclusion, adding Dragon Lee into the mix kinda added a possibility of mixing two rivalries, as Dom and Lee have been feuding for some months over the NXT North American Title, as well as Dragon Lee stood up against Santos to avenge Rey, the man who endorsed him as the next big Lucha star. But then, the night before the match, Dragon Lee is taken out (what the hell is the problem with Dragon Lee? They make him job to Ricochet and Santos, they gave him the NA Title just to lose it shortly after to Oba Femi. What's wrong with him? ) and Andrade, who has been on an random and unnatural story of Dom trying to add him to the Judgment Day because... They're both mexicans? And let's not talk about how forced Andrade's appearance on SmackDown was. First, he looked like he was fully on Santos and Dom's side, but then the heels start shoving him for no reason at all, causing Andrade to suddenly change sides and entering the match. I don't get why they did all of that with Andrade, maybe to get him back with Zelina? (Despite being in different brands, but WWE doesn't give a crap about the brand split, so whatever). The match only strong point was the in-ring performance, with a good fast pace and some good looking lucha moves, but it's not something you wouldn't see in any other random weekly match involving luchadores. Then add the random interference by the two footballers just because they played for the Eagles and no other real meaningful reason. It also made me laugh how Joaquín Wilde said he was going for a WrestleMania moment that ended up being the same spot he already did twice before. At least the in-ring action was pretty decent, but everything else was a big mess. There wasn't even a Carlito betrayal after suggesting he was mad at Rey not choosing him for the match (and how presumably he was the one who attacked Dragon Lee). (** 1/2)"
[6.0] "I was looking forward to Dragon Lee being in this match, but Andrade did well in his role. Nothing to the degree of Rey vs. Dom last year, but this was still fun with the stables getting involved, and then the interference by Philadelphia Eagles players past and present."
[6.0] "I enjoyed most of this as it was just a really fun filler match to put in the middle. Most of this centred around Escobar/Mysterio so the inclusion of Dom and Andrade just felt a bit confusing. Also this match didn't need the NFL Players at the end."
[6.0] "Good match overall but disappointing ending with two NFL players helping out The LWO beat Dominik and Santos. I think Dominik should've beat Rey in my eyes."
[5.0] "It felt like a TV match which is not necessarily a bad thing, but I was hoping for a more exciting Tag Team Match. All four workers looked good and their stuff was professional, but nothing to write home about. Plus they lost me a little bit when everybody outside of the ring started brawling."
[8.0] "Kind of a cool of much but still pretty cool. Andrade was so damn good and I am glad that he gets to show his skill in Mania. Other than that some callbacks were nice like the belt and the interfernces were used correctly. Took the best parts of this okayish feud and made a really good match."
[6.0] "I don't think this match was bad at all. I love to see Andrade El Idolo back in WWE. He brings so much non-bullshit creativity to the match like the stacked cross body. For the most part this was better than it had to be. The typical Wrestlemania-fashion celebrity finish ruined it a little bit, but I guess it was my mistake to forgot these kind of acts."
[6.0] "A normal Lucha-style match with some dives looking good. This was an excuse to have Rey and Dom in the same ring probably but a singles match between them would have been better, this was like more a weekly show match. Useless match but not bad. ***1/4"
[5.0] "Hoffe das nach diesem aufeinandertreffen diese Fehde endlich beendet ist.Ds war nicht mehr als ein Weekly Match hatte generell nicht die Erwartunden das ich hier ein 4 SterneMatch sehe aber bisschen mehr hätte man hier machen können auch das hier irgendwwelche Footballer eingreifen ist unötig :Auch die Sieger halte ich für ein Fehler da Escobar & Mysterio den SIeg mehr gebrauchen könnten, (**3/4)"
[6.0] "The action in the ring was good. Unfortunately, the crowd was not interested and the arrival of the Football players was random and meaningless. I think they are planning Carlito's turn for the next few weeks, however, I am happy with Andrade's victory, an outstanding wrestler."
[7.0] "I thought this was really cool, at least at first. In the build I didn't care, but the wrestling pulled me in. I've never seen anything like that double crossbody before, and I always mark out for Andrade's elbow. The different factions interfered in ways that made sense, thats cool, there was a couple of good spots and everything made sense. Then the ending happened.....huh? Honestly, I can't say I hated it, I obviously wasn't the intended audience, but that feels weird to say about a WrestleMania match. While I won't dock a ton of points, because I could see it being a positive to some, it was a bit of a letdown."
[6.0] "Starts off just a bit slow, but it does pick up more in the end. Everyone here does good work, with some high flying spots that are truly awe-inspiring. The main problems with this match is the length of it. It's a bit too short in my opinion, it didn't hit that next gear to really get to something really good. That, and the interference from some football players at the end was just dumb. Maybe this rating is just a bit too high, but only because I can't really ignore some of the great moves that are in this match. You aren't missing anything if you skip this."
[4.0] "**1/4 out of 5. 4.5 Basically just a cool down match & an excuse to get dominik, rey, Andrade & Santos on the card. The crowd was shockingly quiet for dominik in the match."
[5.0] "A mess, as was a lot of the multi-man matches at this wrestlemania. Has wrestling regressed? Have people just gotten bad at the fundamentals? Was watching the Mania XIX tag and it was crisp, people weren't doing sloppy clotheslines and whiffing kicks to the stomach like they were here - and I like a lot of these guys. Probably a totally different convo but it was really evident here. This is also when the crowd just started falling off a cliff noticably, but I don't really blame then, action felt sloppy and aimless. A few cool spots here and there but again - I think they lost them early and couldn't get them back. **1/2"
[4.0] "To be blunt, a mess. All the members of LWO and Legato clogged the match, and the guest appearances from Kelece and Lane Johnson were silly, and served for a cheap pop from the Philly crowd. The magic of Dom and Rey facing each other was largely gone too, while Andrade seemed to be the only one trying to do anything memorable. Also worth noting is that this is where I thought the commentary began to get really annoying, a theme that plagued this card the rest of the night. A forgettable 'Mania match if there ever was one. 2 Stars."
[6.0] "A good six man tag mostly there to get a bunch of highflying offense. Andrade was the MVP he looked intense with his offense and his signature spots look very cool (The big boot dodge into the elbow and the double jump moonsault in particular). Dominik and Santos played good heels and the closing stretch with Legado and the LWO diving onto eachother was pretty fun as well. I though the finish with the amaerican football players interfering to help out Mysterio was a let down though. I would've enjoyed something more related to the storyline leading to the finish like Dragon Lee coming for the last minute save or Carlito turning on the LWO to allow Santos to hit a chairshot. Still an satisfactory match"
[4.0] "An okay, nothing special match. The storyline between LWO and Legado has been so boring and uninteresting on SmackDown that at the last minute they had to bring in two people from Raw, Andrade and Dom, to get anything out of this. They've moved so many people in and out of this match that it's a miracle they didn't do it again before the bell. This was basically a TV show match with how everything played out. You've seen it all before with these factions. Dom tried to cheat by bringing in a chair, but a couple of Philadelphia Eagles players in lucha masks came in to help save the day. LWO won and the biggest pop of the match was when Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson revealed themselves so the Philly crowd could know who they are to a big pop. This wasn't bad, it also wasn't good. 4/10"
[4.0] "Yeah, this match just never picked up for me. The amount of people getting involved at ringside was comical and really hurt any flow the match had, the ending of two football players helping Rey win sucked, and the crowd was dead for most of the match. This match also highlighted how annoying the talk about people having their "WrestleMania moment" is. Calling it a WrestleMania moment on commentary is lame enough, but now the wrestlers themselves are calling out that they're about to have their WrestleMania moment and it's even more lame. It's a shame this match was as lackluster as it was because everyone in this match (besides Dominic Mysterio) is a great in-ring talent, but it felt like nothing ever really clicked. At least Andrade had a good showing here after his disappointing run outside of WWE."
[6.0] "An alright match but fitting for a Smackdown or a B PPV not for Wrestlemania unfortunately. Felt like filler and just a way to get more guys on the mania card and to get the hometown eagles players on the show. Andrade easily was the best worker from the match he did great but everyone else were just kind of there. It couldve been good but it was pretty short and just lacked drama it felt very pedestrian. Another disappointment on the card unfortunately. I get the baby faces winning but I wouldve liked dom/santos getting the win I felt like they needed more. 3/5"
[4.0] "An okay nothing special match fit for a random Smackdown, not WrestleMania. The random unnecessary celebrity interference at the end was not good."
[6.0] "Kinda expected a little more from this match honestly. Andrade was the shining star to me in this match really kicking it into another gear. Kinda think this match couldve used a big story twist like Carlito turning on Rey but im almost certain that that is coming very very soon. I think the heels shouldve won this match. And oh yeah Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson decided to throw on luchadore masks and help the babyfaces from being attacked with chairs. Why? you might ask well i have no clue but it was actually pretty cool seeing them show up here. 3.25 stars i think is fair."
[7.0] "Good team wrestling match for a mid-show. Lucha libre still offers us some fine moments. Andrade is too strong and Rey Mysterio is still going strong at his age. Dom continues to delight against his father and I'm glad Santos Escobar had his moment at Wrestlemania. On the other hand, I don't have the reference of the people at the end and it gives a heel victory to Rey Mysterio. A bit strange. I'd also have liked to know a bit more about Carlito and his relationship with the LWO. Here's hoping this blows up in the next few weeks."
[4.0] "Andrade was hungry here at least. The double splash he did with Rey on his shoulders was cool. Everything else... just a standard match. The celebrity involvement was fun. Hard not to feel like this was such a waste of Dom who has had a great year and also a waste of re-treading the feud with his dad where now he for some reasons hooks up with another faction than his own to randomly battle him again (and lose). Eh whatever. Some fun stuff for filler but not an interesting feud or much to chew on."
[5.0] "I was really enjoying my time with this for long stretches, I was disappointed for Dragon Lee losing his WrestleMania match a day before the event he was booked on, but Andrade looked exceptionally crisp and satisfying with his offence. Rey and Dominik are great together and Escobar acquitted himself well on the Mania stage. It started to lose me during the LWO/Legado plunder segment, and then the disastrous finish hit where Escobar and Dom were made to look like chumps so that some American football players could get a masturbatory Mania moment. It was horrible and derailed the match entirely for me."
[8.0] "I don't care, I really liked this match, it was a shame we didn't get Dragon Lee but Andrade was great here, this was fun, sometimes the vibes just help the matches an this was just vibes for me, mi gente latino"
[2.0] "Terrible match with nothing exciting worth mentioning. It aspired to be an average Smackdown bathroom break match and failed to manage to deliver even that. What's especially disheartening about this match is that this was a big opportunity for Andrade to build some excitement for his return to WWE. But he may as well have been entirely absent from the match. It echoes his terrible Royale Rumble appearance. Nevermind that Andrade wasn't even supposed to be in this match until a last-second Dragon Lee replacement. This match pushed this WrestleMania into near unrecoverable territory."
[5.0] ""This match felt more suited for SmackDown than WrestleMania, and it showed. While it had its moments, it ultimately came across as rushed and lacking in storytelling depth. The decision to replace Dragon Lee with Andrade as Rey Mysterio's tag team partner felt like a missed opportunity, as Lee's chemistry with Mysterio could have added more excitement to the match. Andrade's inclusion, while delivering some good spots, didn't quite elevate the match to the WrestleMania caliber. Additionally, the involvement of football players Kelce and Johnson felt arbitrary and didn't resonate well with the crowd. The match ended on a lackluster note, Overall, while everyone got their spots in, this match felt like filler for the card and failed to leave a lasting impression. A middling 5/10.""
[6.0] "This match should have been on Smackdown but I get they had to use Kelce and Johnson somehow and I give them some credit that the normal "superstar jumps the barricade from the crowd" spot was used different. It was simple and maybe even filler for the card but hearing Wilde say "let's create a Mania moment" was cringe. One thing if he said it to his team but him saying it on screen was corny. Crowd didn't pop like he thought not that it had to but I think they seen it already and were like meh.In the end everyone got their spot in so that was good."
[7.0] "A fun match, albeit one that feels a bit slight by WrestleMania standards. None of the wrestlers do anything wrong but it feels a bit odd that the highlights of the match was the interference. Rey Mysterio and Santos Escobar have had a good blood feud but adding Dominik Mysterio makes it feel like a reheated version of last year's Rey match. It could have been better if Dragon Lee tagged with Rey as planned but they had to remove him and replaced him with Andrade for reasons I'm not sure of (no disrespect to Andrade intended). Still, the wrestling is good and seeing Joaquin Wilde being thrown slingshot style was amazing."
[6.0] "This match was passable, nothing actually special came from it. In the end was super confusing, I don't watch football so I was hoping for some superstar return but it was someone no one knew.... I'll still never understand why wwe feels we care about people outside wwe. Andrade had some good spots but the LWO members who weren't part of the match kinda took away from the match itself with Jaquine Wilde doing his "wrestlemania moment". It is what it is. I'm just glad he didn't mess up in front of 70, 000 people or however many there is there."
[5.0] "This was fine. Nothing special. Like all Rey PLE matches, it was sponsored out the wazoo which really kind of kills any gravitas that it would have. The main four wrestlers did solid work with the faces doing face things and the heels heeling it up. Zelina and Electra did an atrocious spot that was better off not being attempted at all, but otherwise this match is one of those "watch it if it is on" kind of deals. And it was obviously planned that way because the result was a surprise revelation of some Eagles players which was neat."
[6.0] "Overall, I think the in-ring action deserves an 8, but the crowd reaction and the ending brings this down to a 6. Very fast paced action by three talented wrestlers (and an improving Dominik) was cool to watch, some nice spots too when both faction members were brawling with each other. I expected the winners to be obviously Andrade and Rey Mysterio and they ended up winning. Not sure if I agree with both Eagles players (Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson) interfering but it's whatever I guess since it's in Philly."
[6.0] "It was alright, not anything to write home about. I really like Andrade, and I think he should do so much more. I like the Rey vs Dominick call backs to last year, and I thought the overall match was very solid. I didnt love the ending with the Eagles interference but its Wrestlemania so Im not going to be nitpicky. I think the dynamic with Carlito being upset with Rey could lead to a very good rivalry and add to the LWO storyline, I wasnt initially sold on this storyline but theyve been doing some great work."
[6.0] "This was a very competently worked match. Rey is still going strong and Andrade looked very good, he definitely impressed me the most. Problem is - this could've very well been a TV match. Nothing too compelling. As I'm not american, without googling I have no idea who are the guys who came to Rey's help. Not only this, but the ending was very bad, it was very obvious how Santos went around Dominik to get to his spot for the 619. Regardless, it was a fun match but there's no need to get out of your way to see it."
[6.0] "This was actually good, but with a weird, nonsensical ending. I get that they wanted to use Kelce but what was the connection to Rey and friends? What happened to Dragon Lee? It seemed Carlito was going to turn but he did very little here. I did very much enjoy the Joaquin Wilde dive though. The four that were actually in the match worked hard and there were a number of "Wrestlemania-level" spots. It's just a shame it fell apart a bit at the end of the match, with the booking being more than a little off."
[6.0] "An overall solid match but felt like there was something missing. It doesnt help that Rey and Dominick has not been much of a thing for a long time and he felt kind of shoehorned in here. Rey and Andrade worked well as a team with the electric chair crossbody to the floor being among my favorite moments of the match. Having Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson get involved felt weird and as a bit of an out to pinning Santos. Joaquin getting a WM moment with his assisted leap down the entrance was a nice moment too."
[6.0] "Little breather during this one for me. No doubt what the outcome was going to be and for what I saw, it seemed perfectly satisfactory to me and filled the gap well. Personally I see Andrade as a future world champion holder if booked in the correct context."
[6.0] "It wasn't a bad match in itself, it actually had a great start, especially with that double crossbody from Andrade and Rey. The jump with the rope from Wilde is always good also. But, men, this match didn't need to be that overbooked, especially with that finish where masked men from the crowd that came and gave the victory to Rey and Andrade. Such, a strange way to book babyfaces ... and what a way to book an up-and-coming heel stable, to be destroyed by american football player. It can't go over a 6/10."
[6.0] "Starting out as solid lucha tag wrestling, this match had a few things going against it from the get-go. Rey/Dom is a family feud that went cold a while ago, and Doms natural heat magnetism wasn't enough to get the crowd fully invested. Andrade deserves a mention for some satisfying work, and there were some very fun outside spots, but the ending is where everything falls apart and goes from good to just about bearable. Having two masked non-wrestlers run in and give the win to the faces furthers no stories. No Carlito intrigue, no heel-win to build towards a rematch, just a non-finish of two big guys in masks doing nothing to further the stories of the actual wrestlers in the match."
[5.0] "[5.4] Main thing bringing this down is a really flat ending. Not a big American Football person, so mileage may vary, but Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson just did nothing for me and were distracting. Outside of that and some overbooking in regards to managers, this was a perfectly adequate match. Main highlight is Wilde doing the slingshot spot he did in NXT, which is always amazing to watch and is basically guaranteed to be in recap or highlight packages for years to come, outside of that, you have Andrade in particular being really good. This could've been a match in the 2nd hour of RAW."
[6.0] "Under my point of view is so far one of the worst fights of the event and my assessment is positive because I think it's decent, but to be part of an event like WrestleMania it felt really strange and did nothing that stands out for its story, it was a Tag Team fight where finally Rey returns to beat his son Dom, which the truth I do not know what this is, if they want to bury the son or what things they want to tell because the truth this fight in certain things leaves much to be desired, especially in the narrative."
[5.0] "There's very few matches on WWE PLEs recently where you think "this could've been an email", but this is one of them. Some of the feuds going into Mania have over-stirred the pudding too much, and I think this would've been better if it was Mysterio vs. Escobar or Mysterio vs. Mysterio, but hey, Andrade was looking for a spot on the card, so we have a tag match which was so haphazardly booked, especially with Dragon Lee was taken out of the match with less than 24 hours notice. As for the match itself, it really did not kick into any gear higher than second, leading to a finish coming completely out of nowhere with incredibly out-of-place Philadelphia Eagles."
[6.0] "Sometimes, taking things simple is more than enough to satisfy the expectations. This match billed that mentality by sending a legend in Rey and three of the best successors he could ask for to deliver a simple yet stellar showcase of lucha libre wrestling. The interferences from the factions were minimal, but looked magnificent adding more weight to the battle. The final run-in from the NFL icons generated an easy pop out of the Philly faithful which is lightwork for WWE to pull off. Carlito's heel turn was teased for a while and as much as I anticipated for the trigger to be pulled, it's fine to build that by adding layers. 3 out of 5 stars!"
[5.0] "I mean if you want. A couple of the spots looked clean as hell, but there was no reason for this to be on Mania. Idk how anyone can compare this to the Rey/Dom match last year, since that had such great storytelling and powerful emotion. This was just a standard LWO match that just so happened to feature Dom for some reason. That finish was cringe too, I do not understand why youd book random celebrities into events to have them do something of actual consequence? Why are non wrestlers involved in the finish of a wrestling match?"
[5.0] "Works well as a Philly crowd pleaser match I guess. If you are not the crowd tho, I just don't know. It was a questionable booking that didn't serve much for the match quality itself. Gotta quote Michael Cole here: ''What's up with these football players getting involved always''. Andrade looked good and the match had some spots like that insane launch from Wilde and stacked double crossbody. Unfortunately lacked heat and there was not much going on with this feud to begin with. I felt Dom's addition was unnecessary and Santos didn't come off as a real threat."
[6.0] "Not the worst match in the world, it won't be on any "worst wrestlemania match" lists or anything, however this was just a bit filler which probably could have went elsewhere. The action in the ring was fine, the overbooked flips from the various members of each team's entourage were fine, but the drama wasn't there for me personally. Didn't matter who wins so makes sense for the face's to go over and give the crowd the moment with the philly football players, but I don't see myself rewatching this any time soon"
[5.0] "An odd match. Some nice points, but plenty of periods where it did just feel like four men ticking off the list of moves they've been told to get through in the match. Andrade is a very sound wrestler, but does very little for me. It was a shame Dragon Lee was not in this one instead. This feud has begun to feel stale, and the unnecessary involvement of Philadelphia Eagles players Jason Kelce and Lane Johnson just felt like a blatant attempt to bring some heat at the end. I also detest the calling out of your own 'Wrestlemania moment' and while the catapult dive that Wilde does is cool, him declaring it his WM moment was irritating, particularly given the NXT one which went viral was probably better executed"
[4.0] "This was bad. It had no place being on the Mania card and had the feel of a RAW match from the top. I swear I have never seen a Mania match with less heat. The people really couldnt care less about these four tonight. And then you had the fact that you had two random dudes appear to help the FACES to cheat to win. Who the fuck booked this shit. There were some good spots here and there but overall this was a swing and a miss. Dom and Rey last year had that big Mania match feel, this clearly didn't."
[5.0] "This is definitely one of the matches of all time, huh. Random haphazard booking got us here, and random haphazard booking is exactly what we got from the match itself, with every stable getting involved and some random huge dudes appearing in Rey Mysterio masks (they were big time NFL players but I'm not American so I have no clue who they were). Technically nothing was offensively bad, it just wasn't very interesting. Joaquin's dive is definitely the highlight of the match, and possibly the only thing I'm going to remember a few months down the road. **1/4."
[4.0] "That was... underwhelming? On paper this seemed like it could have been a great fast paced match between two bigger one's, but it ended up being an overbooked TV match at Wrestlemania. In-ring work was solid but nothing special, brawl on the outside was stuff we've seen before, but most importantly... that ending? What was that? As a European watcher I have zero clue who the hell these two football players were so it was a simply confusing and anti-climatic finish, sloppily executed on top of that. Far from being something terrible, but definitely could have had a better match on the card instead. Unfortunate given how great the story was leading into it."
[6.0] "The LWO explodes! The story going into this match was that Dragon Lee was going to team with Rey against Santos and Dominik. Somehow, Andrade got involved and Dragon Lee was out. The action in this match was fine. It wasn't outstanding. I expected a Carlito heel turn, but did not get one. Jason Kelce and some other dude ran in at the end and helped Rey get the win, but it was a mess all over the place with the LWO and Santos's guys fighting everywhere outside the ring. A big mess that didn't live up to expectations."
[6.0] "I did not have high expectations for this match heading into the show with it appearing on the card pretty late into the process and also with the late addition of Andrade. However, the match was fine if a bit comically overbooked. Much like the previous match, fun spots in a match that doesn't really need to be anything else. I wish the match felt like a stronger conclusion to the Santos v. Rey storyline and that is part of why I only rate this as a 6. But overall, this was a fun watch despite my thoughts entering the match."
[6.0] "A really standard tag match that could've been on Raw for the most part, didn't really feel like a Mania match like the Rey vs Dom singles last year, but it was fun enough. They hit some good spots (I loved the stacked crossbody) the stables did some big dives to pop the crowd a little more, and Dom got good heat. Zelina nearly missed her moonsault but I think that was more on Lopez. Then out of nowhere two gigantic football players in Rey masks help the faces win, which was weird but I guess they're over in Philly so sure. ***"
