#8 WrestleMania 32 (2016)

The injury bug really bit this show.

WWE seemingly had major plans for WrestleMania 32, with the show taking place at the massive AT&T Stadium in the heart of Texas. However, a lot of them were crushed due to some poorly timed injuries to the likes of John Cena and Seth Rollins among others.

What we got was a really long and underwhelming mess of a show. The undercard had some good matches. The opening Intercontinental Title ladder match was spectacular, with Zack Ryder claiming a shocking victory.

Also, the WWE Women's Championship was introduced in grand fashion, as Becky Lynch, Sasha Banks and Charlotte Flair tore the house down. However, the biggest matches were all letdowns.

Dean Ambrose was not allowed to get anything substantial in on Brock Lesnar during their Street Fight, while Shane McMahon vs The Undertaker was just a high spot waiting to happen for 25 lumbering minutes.

The final hour of the show was weird, as The Rock defeated Erick Rowan in six seconds before taking out the Wyatt Family with the help of an unfit John Cena. The main event was another boring match in which Roman Reigns defeated Triple H to win the WWE Championship.

The Big Dog celebrated his victory to a chorus of boos, ending WrestleMania 32 on a downer. But there were a number of cool moments earlier on to make it a passable show. Remember when the New Day entered through a giant box of cereal?
