Just posted this in the main thread, thought a dedicated ratings thread might be more interesting though:
Overwhelming feeling is "Meh". 4.5/10 Mania overall.
Kalisto/Ryback - Meh
10 Diva - slightly less of a cluster than expected, but not good by any stretch
Usos/Dudleys - Dull. Whole match was made for one spot
IC Ladder Match - entertaining, bit of a spotfest. Ryder going over was weird
Jericho/Styles - Sloppy, maybe the worst of their matches. Jericho going over makes no sense unless they plan to continue the feud, which makes even less sense
LON/New Day - Forgettable, i get they're trying to build a feud, but mania should be the pay-off, not the kick-off
Lesnar/Ambrose - Huge disappointment. Unimaginative, Ambrose looked like a can
Charlotte/Lynch/Banks - Great match. Best of the night. Some great spots and i think the right winner, Banks needs the title but only after a proper chase
Undertaker/Shane'O'Mac - A clear sign that Taker needs to wrap things up. Deadly slow pace, to the point of being quite dull for 90% of the match. Completely saved by Shane doing something wildly dangerous
Battle Royale - Basic match, Shaq was a good bit of fun. Corbin winning was cool
Reigns/HHH - Solid but unspectacular match. Not Mania main event. Would have been acceptable if Reigns was over, but he's not.
So basically, 2 matches i really enjoyed and a host of solid but uninspiring matches with a lot of really deflating results.
