This year’s Hall Of Fame is to Honor the iconic Names like Rey Mysterio, Stacy Keebler, The Great Muta, Along with celebrity inducted Andy Kaufman and Warrior Award recipient Tim White.
My thoughts was Rey Mysterio’s speech was great, And having family members and representatives of Kaufman & White doing the speeches in this behalf. And Stacy Keebler speech was pretty good.

Date: April 1–2, 2023
Venue:SoFi Stadium
Tagline(s): “WrestleMania Goes Hollywood”
Saturday (Night 1):
Overall Show Score: 9/10
Pros: The responses from all the different nations to the victors on this first night. The Stage looked so good that it outclassed the Oscars in terms of design. Hearing Eddie Guerrero’s Theme Song again was kind of sweet. I was glad seeing most of my favourites win their matches. Kevin Hart did his part of hosting Night 1, and my favourite matches were both Rey Mysterio vs Dominik Mysterio and The Usos vs Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn.
Cons: The opening match were under whelming because how short it was. I wasn’t that interested during the 6-Women Tag Match and Pat McAfee performance was not at all impressive.

Sunday (Night 2):
Overall Show Score: 7/10
Pros: Shane McMahon shock appearance was a surprise. I was impressed of how well they kept up the quality from entertainment set from the other night. Kevin Hart did his part of hosting Night 2 as well, My favourite matches on night were both the Gunther/McIntyre/Sheamus 3-way championship match and the hell in a cell match between Edge and the demon.
Cons: The advert for the pope’s exorcist movie was a waste of time. It showed the same commercials. I Didn’t agree with the ending to the main event between Cody Rhodes & Roman Reigns.
