    With half the pod attending Wrestlemania 35 in person and half watching on TV, we discuss the live experience and every match. This episode works three ways. It acts as a guide if you have never been to Wrestlemania and want to know what the whole day is like, it allows comparison to your own experience if you did attend, and it gives a review of the matches with thoughts on the crowd and how each match came across on TV versus in-person. It was a blast to be there but we also talk about the negatives and what you may have missed if watching on TV. We'll be back soon with a chat about our week, including WWE Axxess, NXT Takeover, Wrestlecon and RAW.
