What a stinker of a Wrestlemania.
HHH couldn't put over Shaemus? So much for building new stars.
The Hart/McMahon beat down went on FOREVER. It sort of reminded me of the scene in return of the Jedi, where the Emperor kept zapping Luke while he was down. I'm surprised that Hart didn't get booed.
Divas match was a complete mess. Vickie couldn't even get the pin right.
Cena/Batista.... well, Superman wins again.
Michaels/Undertaker was meh... I was sort of hoping that Michaels would win so we wouldn't have to hear about "the streak" anymore, which got old about 5 years ago.
The only thing redeeming about the show was Jericho coming out on top over Edge.

Every match was solid IMO with the exception of Hart/McMahon. Orton is pretty damn relevant, and the crowd let him know that with the reaction he got. Hell, he got the biggest reaction of the night until Shawn/Taker. ahhhh man, I just build WM up sooo much every year, I get so f'ing excited about it! get drunk, have some people over, get really into it! I don't even watch the weekly shows, just keep up on here(WC THAT IS) but I just keep getting dissapointed every year. Honestly, I think it's time to hang up my tights.....in the watching of my favorite past time, but it more than likely won't happen and you guys are right, the crowd did explode for Orton, completely forgot about it. I just long for the days of Savage, Foley, Demolition, "Snake" Roberts etc. I just keep continuing on, it's all I know......wow I'm getting emotional on the superbowl of wrestling. Later guys, love ya! |

Speaking of that moment...Wendy Richter looks pretty damn good, all things considered. ;D Wendi Richter is now firmly in MILF and/or cougar territory. She looks better now than she did in 1985. |

I missed the first half hour earlier so got the replay going and God, that Fantasia girl is bad. Not that America the Beautiful is a great song in the first place, but damn.

I did 5 of 10 in the official board Pick Em. The benefit is most of the ones I got right I also picked the method of victory right.

talk about the brick wall! loved that shot of it  I know, that was an odd shot Well, I guess I'll give my thoughts Tag Titles- Too short, it was starting to really pick up the last couple of minutes, then KTFO & it's over. Triple Threat- Better than I thought It'd be, pretty good. MITB- Not one of the best, but still it had some fun moments(Kofi stilts, Big Air Bourne, Matt's hiptoss to Evan off the ladder, Drew getting crotched,just because it happened to Drew & Swaggah winning was a surprise)so good, but not great. Sheamus/HHH- Better than I expected as well, good match & Sheamus looked good in defeat. Punk/Rey- Disappointed that Rey beat Punk again, seriously he hasn't pinned Rey yet in this feud, but still a good match, despite it being a little short. Vince/Bret- About what I expected, though it went a little long, but it had the proper ending with the Hart family getting revenge & Vince tapping like a bitch in the Sharpshooter was cool. Jericho/Edge- Really good match that started slow, but picked up & the Codebreaker to block Edge's Spear was awesome & so was the post match Spear through the barricade. Divas Match- As expected, short match, finisher fest, though I didn't expect Vickie to get the win, esp. pinning Kelly, I expected Gail to eat another pin, loved the botched pin too. Dave/Cena- Another good match, not as good as their SS match, but still a good one. Taker/HBK- Well, what can I say that everyone else hasn't said, Awesome match, great ending w/ Taker Spiking Shawn into retirement & a great match to end WM on, kudos to both men. |

After taking everything in, I felt this was a damn good Wrestlemania. Not the greatest of all time but at least in the top 10. Could had been better if they cut the divas match and gave the time to Rey/Punk.

Edge's choking in the big match was my Wrestlemania moment.

2 questions:
A) What the hell was Mysterio's outfit?
B) How did John Cena do his entrance? I missed that part.

Now...I don't want to come across as racist here...because lots of performers do this (Mariah Carey amongst the worst offenders) but when people try and "add some Soul/RB" to songs that DO NOT NEED IT....it almost NEVER works out. America The Beautiful is one of those songs where you DO NOT draw out every syllable in an effort to hit EVERY note on the register, Fantasia. That works in soul songs and RB radio...but not for national banner songs like that. Never for songs like that. And her screeching during the middle half...that was HORRID. Honestly, I blame Mariah Carey. She popularized hitting every note in the scale like that, and a generation of female singers that followed her LOVE to imitate that s***. |

So uhh, is it like banned to make new threads about anything wrestlemania related or something? there's like 20 locked threads and most of them seem like they are about something significant enough to base a thread on.

2 questions: A) What the hell was Mysterio's outfit? B) How did John Cena do his entrance? I missed that part. A) Avatar. He was supposed to be a Na'Vi. B) He had the Airforce Color Guard (the Air Force? For a wanna-be Marine? I know some fellas over at Camp Pendelton that probably either laughed their asses off at that) do a parade routine to bring him out. |

For some reason during the Undertaker match I was thinking about how his eyes kind of resembled that of Goros from Mortal Kombat.  |
