Welcome back to the Mat Madness Wrestling Podcast! We are back on the Road To WrestleMania with the listener's choice. Donovan "The Lo Down" Lloyd joined Ron Pasceri and Aaron Lloyd in breaking down WrestleMania 28. The main even was the "Once In A Lifetime" match between The Rock and John Cena. While the match may be panned by many, it is truly the definition of "Sports Entertainment" and exactly the representation Vince McMahon wants for WWE. We saw what was alleged to be the end of an era when Shawn Michaels was the special guest referee for a Hell in a Cell match between Triple H and The Undertaker. We also saw CM Punk defend his WWE Championship against Chris Jericho. Join us as we go back to 2012 and give our thoughts on WrestleMania 28!

Welcome back to the Mat Madness Wrestling Podcast! Eric Trembicki makes his return as Ron Pasceri and Aaron Lloyd are joined by special guests Josh Iguina and Mike Day. The focus of this week's show was on each show's build toward it's WrestleMania matches and the stories each show is telling. The consensus seems to be most of Raw's stories aren't being told well while SmackDown's have been mostly successful. The most looked forward to matches seem to be Kevin Owens vs Chris Jericho, AJ Styles vs Shane McMahon and Seth Rollins vs Triple H. Eric, Josh and Mike whittled the MarchMania II bracket down to the Elite 8. Find out who is left standing with a chance to claim the second ever Mat Madness MarchMania championship!
