Late upload. I had to render this 3 different times because of some minor issues. WrestleMania XXVI was enjoyable for me. The main event easily stands out as the best and is one of my favorite WrestleMania main event matches ever. Other than that, there's some cool stuff here but it's not an all time show. The one thing that stands out is that this was the last full timer WM. After this, a bunch of guys like Jericho and Batista left. What did you think of WrestleMania XXVI?
wrestlemania 26 was an underrated good wrestlemania and star stacked. One of my personal faves. Batista, john cena, undertaker, shawn michaels, chris jericho, edge, randy orton, rey mysterio, triple h, big show, cm punk, kane, breat hart, vince mcmahon, sheamus, wow.
Growing up in the Ruthless Agreesion Era years, 2010-11 was pretty hard for me. Was too young to understand PG. Jeff Hardy signed with TNA in January, HBK & Batista leaving, Y2J taking time off again the end of September, Edge retiring April 2011, Undertaker & Triple H going part time (No PPV money) I could not see them often. It was like all my favorites were leaving.

I think it’s only slighty underrated because I’d be damn if I took this Wrestlemania out of my top 5 lol 😂. It’s star packed I think the biggest abs for me only problem was the ending of the money in the bank. If a Christian, Kane, or Matt Hardy one it would have been amazing. This was before Kane won his money in bank match and world title so we were still waiting on another title run from him. Christian came back after being a huge star in Tna, killed it in ECW, and deserved the win here. Then Matt Hardy a fan favorite that wwe never gave a world title chance to. Swagger winning was the most underwhelming thing of the night. The 3 big WM matches 2 world title matches and main event was awesome.
This was the last Wrestlemania with some legends being full timers. Shawn retired, Triple H and Undertaker eventually became part timers, and some more people from that era started leaving. It was pretty sad and eventful.
I stand by this belief: WWE died the moment Shawn Michaels retired. WWE went on to a steady decline. WWE had a few gems through the last decade but overall WWE as we knew and loved growing up in the 90s and 2000s was officially dead.
If they had focused on all their young talent like they did The Shield, then it wouldn’t have died. All their NXT call ups are wishy washy depending who you ask
I agree even though they were PG in 2 years, this was like the true ending of Ruthless Aggression era, HBK, Batista and other Ruthless Aggression superstars were released, and HHH & 'taker went full part timer mode
It truly did feel like an end to am era. When you compare wrestlemania 26 to 27, the difference in 1 year was huge. The stars wwe lost after wrestlemania 26 were Shawn Michaels, Batista, Chris Jericho, Triple H (begins part time), Undertaker( begins part time), and Edge (retires after wrestlemania 27). So many greats I grew up with faded away. Cena and Orton were still there but after them, they were lacking stars for a while.
they were trying to push The Miz, Swagger, Sheamus, Mcintyre, Ziggler in 2010, a year later Miz is in the main event but he was terrible, sure he got great mic skills but he wasn't ready, alone in the main event of WM, which is for me the worst 'mania in the 2010s, Swaggers push got halted quickly, Sheamus was criticize for his early push bc he was said to be HHH's gym buddy, Mcintyre was too young, and Ziggler needed a manager
@@itachi-kun7736beside swagger The rest are great Dolph was literally the most charsmia on sd with Vicky Miz had great mic skills and good character work. All he needed is better booking as champion Sheamus was average before taking out hhh but after that sheamus gained more respect backstage and improved when he faced guys like koft and Morrison
@@pleaseshutup7053 2014 felt pretty awkward for some reason but at the same time I appreciated it because WWE took some good steps on building the future
This was the last Wrestlemania I watched for a loooong time because HBK retired. Ironically what brought me back into the fold was watching Brock breaking Takers streak at a wings spot on a PPV they played.
One of my favourites! 2010 was such a good year … maybe not for wwe but they pulled it all together for Wrestlemania!! The matches, the stadium, the stage design, the location!

wm 26 was my fave ever. the energy, feeing, matches, stories, stage, everything was perfect and there will never be a wm this unique. that stadium was fkin massive to be in. if you look into how much they spent production wise its insane. great theme songs, great middle retractable roof super sunny inside then they'd close it then re open it. it felt such a magical experience. sorry for my bad english im excited

I love the original plans/rumors part of the video, especially because every year it seems like Undertaker was supposed to have a different match so I love hearing about it!!
Lol my first wrestlemania was wm 24. I didn’t care about ric flair like my mindset at that age was like if you’re not Triple H or Cena you’re irrelevant but boy I was ignorant
WrestleMania 26 was pretty decent. The only highlight of the show was Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels. Besides that, the other matches more or less fly by. But at least it's way better than what was to come the following year.
(20:47) Vicky may not be a wrestler, but at least she knew to do some splashes befoe she made the second pin, to sell it more. That lil bit of improv is actually pretty veteran of Vicky.
I like how said Rey works better with shorter wrestlers, which he really does and it doesn’t make you have to suspend disbelief as much. However I thought it was funny because I hear a lot that he works better with the bigger wrestlers. Which is also true. Another reason why Rey is a legend.
2010 was a rough year for the WWE! But this is one of my favorite WrestleManias of the 2010s. One of my favorite shows ever. HBK/Taker II just killing it, The MITB Ladder Match was amazing, HHH vs Sheamus was good, The Triple Threat Match was decent, and Cena/Batista II was amazing too. This show carried one of the most disappointing years of all time.
Dude I was literally thinking about this last week. How WM 26 was the last wrestlemania with allot of the top guys of that era. Shawn retired, Batista left two months later, Undertaker went part time, Triple H went part time, Edge wrestled for one more year then retired and Jericho wrestled for a few months and left and didn't return till 2012. And WM26 had allot of star power to it only one was missing was Jeff Hardy
Completely unrelated to the video but I haven’t been subscribed and RUclips will show me your videos in this case 16 minutes after you post them lol, I finally subbed so let’s hope it doesn’t bury your content now
Not the best, but definitely the most stacked WM card in the last decade. Look at the star power in this show. Legends : Taker, Bret, HBK, HHH, Vince Established stars : Cena, Batista, Orton, Edge, Jericho, Rey, Punk, Christian, Big Show, Kane Up & comers / Future Stars : Drew, Morrison, Sheamus, Miz, Kofi, Cody, Dolph, Swagger, Bourne, Dibiase It'll took awhile until we see this kind of card on Wrestlemania. And i doubt will happen anytime soon.
@@pleaseshutup7053 you must a nostalgia merchant if can't acknowledge the impact of John Cena....he was the biggest draw in sport entertainment for 15 years + You just can't see him.... open your eyes you little girl 🤡

I stuck around for 3 more years but Wrestlemania 30 WWE lost me. I watch occasionally now but will only watch full time to see the final runs for Edge and Orton, the last 2 full time RA Stars left
I don't think it was the worst but I can agree I seen better years and it's because the wwe failed to build new stars to be main event players such as kofi, Dolph, Morrison wade Barrett and ect. But it's one of my favorites and I loved the year 2010
26 wasn't a bad show by any means but I felt like it was lacking. I would have had Swagger cash in on Jericho that night to have a classic moment that would have been show stealing. Sheamus vs. HHH was stale as both had simular styles while we did see some good bouts like Cena vs. Batista and Jericho vs. Edge. HBK vs. Undertaker was good maybe not 25 good but it was a great match and it told such a great story. Its a shame we don't see this kind of show today in wrestling but WWE and really the wrestling world changed so much that now its unrecognizable. Heck WWE now only gets half of the audience it once did back in 2010 so that should tell you something. People try to apply the logic of ratings don't matter but if that's true then wrestling is only for hard-core fans and fortune 500 companies. That won't work long term. Still 2010 wrestling was solid and had so many good moments as WrestleMania was a solid show. Its a shame we are not getting this type of action today.
Random late comment but you can actually do a Hot Tag at the very start of the match if you wanted in SvR 2011. You just have to press the button for a Hot Tag and let your partner get injured just a tiny bit. I remember my friends and I abused it everytime we started a tag match, but would ultimately pay the price as we didn't have it later.
The official end of Ruthless Aggression. This is how I'd put every era in a timeline: Pre Golden Era: 70's - 1983 Golden Era/Rock 'N' Wrestling: 1983 - 1993 (Hogan leaving is the true end) New Generation: 1993 - 1996 (Austin 3:16 pretty much signals Attitude coming) Attitude: 1996 - 2002 (Austin and Rock leaving makes this the end to me) Ruthless Aggression: 2002 - 2010 (Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, Batista, Tommy Dreamer's departure, all in one year) True PG Era: 2011 - 2014 (Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan's Hogan esque pushes felt like the beginning of a new era) Network Era: 2014 - 2018 (Just felt like this fit well with how the product felt) New Era: 2019 - 2022 (This also fits well)
@@fleezelight I'm just saying all of them going made it feel less like Ruthless Aggression. Same with guys like Hardcore Holly, Mr Kennedy and Shelton Benjamin.
Wrestlemania 26 was the first show I ever watched. I had briefly seen smackdown a couple days before and this was the first time I sat through a whole show. Sucks that my first show was HBK’s last. I hoped for so long that he’d come back and when he did I was like damn why now 🤣
No Wrestlemamia will ever top the 5 straight years of 25, 26, 27, 28 & 29. They may not be the best Wrestlemamias of all time however, they had 2 of the greatest Wrestlemamia fueds of all time The Undertaker, Shawn Micheals & Triple H story, and The Rock & John Cena Rivalry. plus everytime I see these Wrestlemamias it reminds me of my childhood I was 10-14. Wrestlemamia 26 was the first Wrestlemamia I owned on DVD & 28 was the first I seen live.
After 2010, HHH/Taker went part time. HBK/Edge retired. Jericho/Batista left. Cena/Orton became the same boring characters. Kane/BigShow jokes. 2010 was really a turning point for the WWE for the worse.
Wrestlemania 26 definitely felt like the end of the road for aloooot of wwe fans, myself included. Triple H and Undertaker went part time, Batista and Jericho left was basically the last of their full time roles as well, HBK retired with Edge following as well a year later, the only ones that stayed were Orton and Cena but that’s it.
The last half of 2010 for WWE going into the end of 2011 was flat imo. Keep in mind they already didn’t have Shawn, Batista, Jericho, Jeff Hardy, And eventually Edge. HHH and Taker had taken on Part time roles coming in only during WM season and only took guys were Cena, Sheamus, Miz, Punk, Orton, and Kane to carry the shows. Which was weak. Mysterio wasn’t utilized properly from 2011-2014, other than Punks Pipebomb, Nexus, Danial Bryans rise, Barrett vs Orton, Orton vs Christian, Mark Henrys hall of pain, and Edges obsession with the unanimous GM WWE was bad especially in comparison to 1999-2009 and todays era of wrestling. WM26 was definitely the end of an era, look at WM27, the Miz was Main event and won thanks to the Rock, Edge Retired, Alberto won the RR, WM27 was the worst WM imo
Yea WM 27 wasn't the same without Batista, Y2J and Hbk. The rest of 2011 was always trash to me, only good things from it were Punk/Cena Storyline, HHH ceo Storyline and Orton vs Christian
@@lilkeenan yeah exactly, 2011 had such a huge roster of new talent with not much big names around anymore. It wasn’t until like 2014ish when the roster starting picking up some steam and guys moving up the ladder.

Its a shame we don't see this kind of show today in wrestling but WWE and really the wrestling world changed so much that now its unrecognizable. Heck WWE now only gets half of the audience it once did back in 2010 so that should tell you something. People try to apply the logic of ratings don't matter but if that's true then wrestling is only for hard-core fans and fortune 500 companies. That won't work long term.
Still 2010 wrestling was solid and had so many good moments as WrestleMania was a solid show. Its a shame we are not getting this type of action today.
Was lucky enough to attend Mania 26 live. My first and only Mania I have attended.
Same here bro
triple h vs taker end of an era
Hey wrestlingpremier you forgot chris jericho locked in the liontamer on edge at wrestlemania 26.
Great video
The last great WrestleMania
I personally loved WM 26 I guarantee I’ve watched that Wm more than any other 😂 2010 was my fav year in wwe as a kid
This was the first WrestleMania I watched
Random late comment but you can actually do a Hot Tag at the very start of the match if you wanted in SvR 2011. You just have to press the button for a Hot Tag and let your partner get injured just a tiny bit. I remember my friends and I abused it everytime we started a tag match, but would ultimately pay the price as we didn't have it later.
The official end of Ruthless Aggression.
This is how I'd put every era in a timeline:
Pre Golden Era: 70's - 1983
Golden Era/Rock 'N' Wrestling: 1983 - 1993 (Hogan leaving is the true end)
New Generation: 1993 - 1996 (Austin 3:16 pretty much signals Attitude coming)
Attitude: 1996 - 2002 (Austin and Rock leaving makes this the end to me)
Ruthless Aggression: 2002 - 2010 (Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, Batista, Tommy Dreamer's departure, all in one year)
True PG Era: 2011 - 2014 (Roman Reigns and Daniel Bryan's Hogan esque pushes felt like the beginning of a new era)
Network Era: 2014 - 2018 (Just felt like this fit well with how the product felt)
New Era: 2019 - 2022 (This also fits well)
Reality era has a real name
Tommy Dreamer's departure did not have a profoud effect on WWE.
The attitude era started in 97
@@fleezelight I'm just saying all of them going made it feel less like Ruthless Aggression. Same with guys like Hardcore Holly, Mr Kennedy and Shelton Benjamin.

One of my Favorite's 💯🙂🔥
This is the first wrestlemania I bought to watch it was a good choice
Wrestlemania 26 was the first show I ever watched. I had briefly seen smackdown a couple days before and this was the first time I sat through a whole show. Sucks that my first show was HBK’s last. I hoped for so long that he’d come back and when he did I was like damn why now 🤣
No Wrestlemamia will ever top the 5 straight years of 25, 26, 27, 28 & 29. They may not be the best Wrestlemamias of all time however, they had 2 of the greatest Wrestlemamia fueds of all time The Undertaker, Shawn Micheals & Triple H story, and The Rock & John Cena Rivalry. plus everytime I see these Wrestlemamias it reminds me of my childhood I was 10-14. Wrestlemamia 26 was the first Wrestlemamia I owned on DVD & 28 was the first I seen live.
Mr era😍
2nd Mania I watched. Yea this one was big when I was a kid. Shame it wasn’t really all that.
As a kid this one was special for me
I never plum quit watching until The Undertaker actually retired haven't watched a match since
After 2010, HHH/Taker went part time. HBK/Edge retired. Jericho/Batista left. Cena/Orton became the same boring characters. Kane/BigShow jokes. 2010 was really a turning point for the WWE for the worse.
Wrong
Banger viddddd letsss goooooo
Wrestlemania 26 definitely felt like the end of the road for aloooot of wwe fans, myself included. Triple H and Undertaker went part time, Batista and Jericho left was basically the last of their full time roles as well, HBK retired with Edge following as well a year later, the only ones that stayed were Orton and Cena but that’s it.
Don’t forget, some of the guys that were staples of the mid cards left too like Benjamin, Mvp and Carlito.
Very Wrestling fan has their Maina as the first maina they watched, this was mine.
since its mania season I think u should rate every one from worst to best, since we have the most stupendous coming up
The part when you said Drew McIntyre landed on his kids😂😂😂🤣😂😂
last time I've watched wwe was in early 2010
Beside the main event and Batista and cena match this mania wasn’t all that this show was mid
It’d be like dom turning heel 😭 5:26
Aged like milk
26:50 Tombstone Piledriver Premium 💀💀💀
The best WrestleMania of all time
2010 is underrated in my opinion the last good year.
2010 was a terrible year after mania what are you talking about. The terrible guest host many legends leaving
@@pleaseshutup7053 Nexus, The Taker and Kane feud, Legends night, Miz vs Bryan, Morrison vs Sheamus.
can you cover over the limit 2010?
17:12 damn they both were out of shape
The last half of 2010 for WWE going into the end of 2011 was flat imo. Keep in mind they already didn’t have Shawn, Batista, Jericho, Jeff Hardy, And eventually Edge. HHH and Taker had taken on Part time roles coming in only during WM season and only took guys were Cena, Sheamus, Miz, Punk, Orton, and Kane to carry the shows. Which was weak. Mysterio wasn’t utilized properly from 2011-2014, other than Punks Pipebomb, Nexus, Danial Bryans rise, Barrett vs Orton, Orton vs Christian, Mark Henrys hall of pain, and Edges obsession with the unanimous GM WWE was bad especially in comparison to 1999-2009 and todays era of wrestling. WM26 was definitely the end of an era, look at WM27, the Miz was Main event and won thanks to the Rock, Edge Retired, Alberto won the RR, WM27 was the worst WM imo
Yea WM 27 wasn't the same without Batista, Y2J and Hbk. The rest of 2011 was always trash to me, only good things from it were Punk/Cena Storyline, HHH ceo Storyline and Orton vs Christian
@@lilkeenan r truth make henry?
@@lilkeenan yeah exactly, 2011 had such a huge roster of new talent with not much big names around anymore. It wasn’t until like 2014ish when the roster starting picking up some steam and guys moving up the ladder.
@@pleaseshutup7053 Mark Henrys hall of pain was great, R Truth with the Miz was cool too.
Yeah Rey mysterio wasn’t utilized properly after John cena beat him for the wwe championship in 2011.
