The most important match at Wrestlemania should always be the WWE championship.
It's secondary these days to the streak and to some of the superstars... the Rock etc
Punk vs Jericho was midcard and to be honest, it showed.
It followed Hell in a Cell and the crowd just didn't seem up for it.
It should have been the wrestling match of the night. The last 10 minutes were pretty good but the slow build up seemed to leave the crowd flat.
Last years title match was the last on the card - Cena vs the Miz.. I just wonder how much damage was done to the title match credibility because that was easily the worst Mania WWE title match ever.
Cena and Miz spent the entire match pinning eachother after basic moves. The match never flowed and was a poor end to what was an ok event.
Punk vs Jericho was much better but the booking killed it. The title match should always be last match in my opinion.
Having said that, i thought last years Taker vs HHH was better than WM28.
I'd score both 7 outta 10
Main Event

By the way... Apparently Jericho just tweeted that it's time to move on

Punk v Jericho was a very good match.
Might not have had the shocks and twists the others did, but in terms of actual wrestling technique it was awesome. 2 wrestlers who executed every move to perfection

But I do agree the WWE Championship/ WHC shoud be the main events.
But it would've felt crap watching the WWE Champ match after the rock/cena match.

I agree. Yes, i agree with YOU
But it's abit like WWE's recent abuse of the RR winner. The status of the WWE championship just isn't what it used to be, it no longer deserves to be the main event, and the fact that sentence even had to be written is an insult.
It's been reduced to nothing more than a prop. Remember back in the summer during Cena/Punk contract signing before Summer Slam, how before they had a physical stand off they CHUCKED their respective WWE titles out of the camera shot??? That was perfect symbolism for what the championship is now - garbage!!!!

Cena vs Miz was only the main event last year because the Rock was going to interfere in it. If anything Punk and Y2J should have been on before HHH/Taker because it was never going to live up to the story if anything. The crowd for Rock and Cena was not even as good as I thought it would be but it wasn't a surprise with bloody Flo Rida and whoever the other creeps were taking 10 minutes up of our time and any match with Cena is pretty boring tbh.
