I know this is well behind the times, but I didn't see Mania (can't get PPV on my cable system, and the party I was considering attending was cancelled) - however, been catching up on the bits I'm interested in via YouTube, and here are my thoughts on Trish vs. Mickie.
I thought this was a stellar match, with excellent psychology. Something I've noticed about WWE womens' matches, that both boosts them and holds them back: they generally have only a couple of good-to-great workers in the division at once, and they feud with each other exclusively, whilst the eye-candy divas have their pillow fights. This means that the Trish/Mickie (and before that, Trish/Lita and Trish/Victoria) matches and feuds are so impressive. They have nowhere to go afterwards, so the division generally goes on hiatus for a while, but... that match was excellent. Mickie is more over than I imagined... when she avoided Trish's legscissors on the top rope, and torqued her leg, ending up on the outside, her obvious sadistic joy and insane scream were excellent.
I also thought some of the selling was wonderful, much less forced than in most womens' matches. Okay, the finish was botched, but ignoring the missed Stratusfaction, Trish sold the Mick Kick like a bullet to the head, great selling.
Just a really good match, in a fantastic feud.

most definetly- I was really proud of Mickie and Trish for such a great match-definetly lived up to expectations and was glad to see the E give them enough time to put on a match, now if they can get Melina on RAW and bring in the other women that I'v heard about, I'd totally be into the women's division

Agreed. Best womens match I've seen since Trish vs Lita on Raw.

It was a really good match -- definitely the best women's match WWE has put out in a good long while.
The fact that the crowd was so adamantly supporting Mickie makes me think she's more over than WWE even realizes. I seriously don't think it was just Chicago being "defiant" either. Many crowds seem to really respond to Mickie. Even if it's just to chant "she's a psycho". If Mickie wasn't over, the crowds wouldn't chant anything at all -- they would go take a whiz during her matches. (See Wilson, Torrie)

The actual issue is that they want Mickie to be a heel but her wacky lesbian antics actually make her more appealing to the horny guys in the audience and to them Trish seems like the less cool, uptight one. Thats where the cheers for Mickie come from i believe. Plus she is hot.

Plus, I think the fact that Trish has had the womens title for over a year and only defended it against about 2 people makes Mickie a breath of fresh air to people.

Yeah, I know what you mean... there is something, somehow, more seedy about Mickie's modified street clothes. Seedy in a good kind of way.

Kinda like the pyscho girlfriend who claims you stalk but is the really the one who is stalking you.

It was a good match and I really liked it but the botched ending kind of spoiled it a little. Still enjoyed the match, the stuff leading up to it, the crowd reaction, Mickie's mannerisms(especially when she played up to the crowd after a big move) and of course her short skirt. ;D

It should be Victoria vs Mickie.

No, it shouldn't... the crowd wouldn't care, Victoria needs a lot of rebuilding.

Even though Mickie's outfit does open the door for upskirt shots galore, I really don't think it's that big of a deal since she basically just wears wrestling tights underneath the skirts anyway. It's just that the skirt creates the illusion that you are seeing something you shouldn't be, which is hot.
