Wrestlemania 28: A Retrospective Look

This is the 28th of 29 threads looking back on previous Wrestlemania events. Every couple of days I have been submitting a new one and will continue until all of the past Wrestlemania events have been discussed, leading up to the big day in April where Wrestlemania 30 will take place. We are almost there!



In this thread we will be discussing.... Wrestlemania 28!












Wrestlemania 28 took place on April 1, 2012. It was held at Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida. There were 78,363 fans there that attended the event. Here are the results of the matches from the show:







0. Primo and Epico (c) (with Rosa Mendes) defeated Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd and The Usos (Jey and Jimmy Uso) in a three-way tag team match for the WWE Tag Team Championship during the Pre-Show (05:11)



1. Sheamus defeated Daniel Bryan (c) (with AJ Lee) in a singles match to win the World Heavyweight Championship (00:18)



2. Kane defeated Randy Orton in a singles match (10:56)



3. Big Show defeated Cody Rhodes (c) in a singles match to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship (05:18)



4. Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos defeated Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres in a tag team match (06:49)



5. The Undertaker defeated Triple H in a Hell in a Cell match with Shawn Michaels as the special guest referee (30:50)



6. Team Johnny (David Otunga, Mark Henry, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, The Miz, and Drew McIntyre) (with John Laurinaitis, Vickie Guerrero, and Brie Bella) defeated Team Teddy (Santino Marella, R-Truth, Kofi Kingston, Zack Ryder, The Great Khali, and Booker T) (with Theodore Long, Hornswoggle, Eve Torres, Nikki Bella, and Aksana) in a Twelve-man tag team match to determine the General Manager of both the Raw and SmackDown brands (10:38)



7. CM Punk (c) defeated Chris Jericho by submission in a singles match to retain the WWE Championship where if Punk had been disqualified he would have lost the championship (22:21)



8. The Rock defeated John Cena in a singles match (33:34)







Now, here are some discussion questions concerning the event:



What was your favorite match on this show, and why did you like it the most? What about the worst match of this show, why did you like it the least?



If you could change a few things about Wrestlemania 28, what would it be and why?



You may only use wrestlers who were available at the roster at that time or make changes that could have realistically taken place in April 2012. Please keep in mind the situations going into the show such as who could actually have been pushed into a title match, or what songs existed back then if you wanted to change the show's theme music, and so forth.



You may only discuss Wrestlemania 28 in this thread. The remaining Wrestlemania events will be getting their own retrospective threads shortly, any posts regarding other events will be considered spam and you risk getting an infraction.



Discuss! :)
