It is one of the best Wrestlemanias of all time and had a unique vibe to it.
The reason it was bought so poorly was because of Brock Lesnar being in the main event at the time (he was still new and didn't have THAT big of a name at the time... nobody outside pro wrestling knew who he was and a lot of older fans didn't like a guy so new being in the main event at wrestlemania), nobody wanted to see Hogan and McMahon fight.... while the storyline was ok and they are two big names everyone knew both of them were too old to put on a good match, and Booker T was a midcarder at the time and was supposed to beat HHH to elevate himself to the main event, but still... a midcarder fighting for a world title at WM.
Every match except the Hogan-Vince one was pretty awesome. Jericho and Michaels threw on one hell of a program, the HHH-Booker T match was solid, the Rock and Austin good as usual, and Lesnar-Angle goes down as one of the best matches of all time with the most ridiculous botch of all time.
