Editor’s Opinion:

I agree with every one of these choices. I was at the Takeover event in New Orleans during Wrestlemania weekend, and I can tell you that the card from top to bottom was incredible. Plus, even up in the nosebleed section, where we were sitting, we could feel the crowd noise and energy from the building. It was awesome.
