Summary: 5 Stars
Wrestlemania 21
04/03/2005
STAPLES Center
Los Angeles, California
1. Eddie Guerrero vs. Rey Mysterio
Winner, Rey Mysterio by pinfall
-Great back & forth match, should have been longer but Rey
fixing his mask all the time bugged after a while ****
2. Six-way "Money in the Bank" Ladder Match
Chris Jericho vs. Chris Benoit vs. Christian vs. Shelton
Benjamin vs. Edge vs. Kane
Winner, Edge
-Second best match on the card. Edge should have done more
in the match to win. Benoit's selling of the arm was
terrific and Shelton's performance made this match great
****1/2
3. The Undertaker vs. Randy Orton
Winner, The Undertaker
-Better match than what everyone expected especially since
Orton was injured. Taker's streak continues at 13. ****
4. WWE Women's Championship Match
Trish Stratus (ch) vs. Christy (w/ Lita)
Winner and still WWE Women's Champion, Trish Stratus by
pinfall
-Also better than anyone expected with Christy in the match.
Trish is the best! **
5. Shawn Michaels vs. Kurt Angle
Winner, Kurt Angle by submission
-AWESOME AWESOME MATCH!!!! Match of the decade!!! HBK and
Angle both put on possibly their best performance ever.
Angle is simply the best worker in the world today and
Michaels is closer to where he was back in '95-97 since his
return in '02 *****
6. Sumo Match
The Big Show vs. Akebono
Winner, Akebono
-Stupid. Skip it. *
7. WWE Championship Match
John "Bradshaw" Layfield (ch) vs. John Cena
Winner and NEW WWE Champion, John Cena by pinfall *
-Possibly the worst World Championship Match in Mania
history. * (The "I Quit" Match from Judgment Day was much
better)
8. World Heavyweight Championship Match
Triple H (ch) vs. Batista
Winner and NEW World Heavyweight Champion, Batista by pinfall
-Pretty good match, Definitely the right title match to end
the show. It was pretty suspenseful as you didnt know
whether Batista would win. Not as good as the rematch or
the Hell in a Cell Match though but a solid bout
nonetheless **1/2
-Overall this was a very good show. With four matches 4 stars or over and a solid main event, it is definitely worth the money. Just skip the WWE title match and the Sumo match and youll be fine. The Womens title match is good for T&A. Kind of a shame that so many solid wrestlers werent on the card though. (Booker T, London, Chavo, Haas, Hassan, Tag Teams)
Movie Review: Wmania 21
Summary: 5 Stars
Rey Mysterio vs. Eddie Guerrero
Outstanding match to begin WM21! This match had it all; technical action, high-flying action and psychology. Not for one second did this match have a boring moment. The only problem I have with this, is the time given, another 5 to 10 minutes would have been accepted happily.
RATING: 91/100
Money in The Bank Ladder Match
Great display of athleticism by many of the 6 competitors (especially Benjamin). This match had some great spots but also a few overdone ones. Overall a very good match that was entirely entertaining.
RATING: 89/100
Christy vs. Trish
Poor match that probably should have been left off for Raw or Backlash. This would have given Christy a little more time to brush up on some skills.
RATING: 57/100
Undertaker vs. Orton
This was a great match that kept me on the edge of my seat to see if Taker could beat Orton. The fact that Orton was Undertaker's opponent definitely added some uncertainty for me as to who would win the match, especially because I knew Orton would be in for a push and what better way to do it than to have him kill Undertaker's legendary streak. However, I am very happy that Deadman won and I think the unpredictability of the match was handled very well with many extremely close nearfalls. Excellent match!
RATING: 91/100
HBK vs. Angle
This match is probably the best singles match I have ever seen, it had it all, including intensity, technical action, excellent high-flying moves, nearfalls and unmatched overall quality. Outstanding use of nearfalls where each man kicked out of the others finisher. Perfect length and perfect ending to an as close to perfect one on one match you can get!
RATING: 97/100
Pipers Pit
Quite a good segment that did what it needed to do and kept the fans happy
RATING: 80/100
Sumo Match
Not a great choice of match, but was acceptable.
RATING: 50/100
Cena vs. JBL
Terrible first main event! I would expect so much more for a Title match at WM. I guess you could say the reason for the "high" rating is that JBL eventually lost the title but little did I know that we would also have trouble with Cena losing the title later on in the year and still now! Very disappointing.
RATING: 68/100
HHH vs. Batista
A good if not excellent main event to WM21. The build-up was exceptional into the match and considering who was challenging, the match lived up to the hype. Well booked and a nice little ending to a good Wmania
RATING: 86/100
79% - Very good Mania that had excellent lower to midcard matches from each show and excellent interpromotional matches. The main events don't compare to WM20, but are still satisfactory.
Great Mania!
Movie Review: WRESTLEMANIA PLUS A 5 Stars
1. Batista vs Triple H NO HOLDS BARRED- NO DQ World Heavyweight CI think it will be a NO DQ match. I think Ric Flair will not in the ring. Triple finish the match with the slegdehammer with no help from Ric Flair. The match will be pretty brutal and Triple H more bloody than Batista.
2. Shawn Michaels w/ Marty Jannety vs Kurt Angle w/ Luther Reigns
Mark Jindrak has betrayed Reigns on SM so Jindark isn't be the part on Angle's Alliance. During the match Michaels is distracted by Reigns. But in the ending Jannety goes after Reigns and then HBK hits Sweet Chin Music to score a win.
3. JBL vs John Cena WWE Championship match
I think JBL will disqualified himself to retain his title. Or WWE will make Cena win. Vince, make JBL retain, yeah, huh. I hope JBL takes the chair and hit Cena to get DQ to retain his t.
4. Money In Bank Match Kane vs Edge vs Benoit vs Jericho vs SB vs Christian. I think during the match Edge and Christian have a corpration. But in the ending Tyson Tomko come and interfere on Edge and then Kane who was about to win. So Christian take the belt and win the match. Pretty Bad Match.
5. Women's Champ match Trish Stratus vs Christy
During the match Trish uses the rope when she pins Christy to win and retain her title on Wrestlemania.
6. Undertaker w/ Jake Roberts vs Orton Legend vs Legend Killer
The match will be violent. During the match the referee get KO. Then when Undertaker was about hitting The Last Ride on Orton, Orton was preventing it. Then Orton hits RKO and scores 1-2-3 but the referee get KO. So, then Jake Snake Roberts is distracted Orton then UT gets up and picks the chair and hits it on orton. Then Chokeslam and Tombstone Piledriver to win his thirteenth match on Wrestlemania.
7. Stone Cold hits Orton with three Stunner on Piper's Pit w/ Stone Cold. Then Vince comes and says it will be a Forever Legend match. The match was fought to a no-contest when Hogan comes the ring then Austin leaves the ring then Hogan hits Piper with a Legdrop.
8. Rob Van Dam vs Heidenreich vs Booker T No1 COnteder match
In that No Holds Barred match Booker T scores the win and he when Heidenreich hits RVD with the chairshot then leaves the ring and lets Booker T win in his first Wrestlemania.
9. 10 Man Battle Royal winner will face the WHC at Raw tommorow
Mark Henry eliminates Sylavain Gainer, Henry eliminates Rob Conway, The Hurricane, Maven, and Stevie Richards elimantes Mark Henry, Maven eliminates Stevie Reichards, Gene Snitky elimintes Maven then The Hurricane, Viscera and Gene Snitky work together to face Mick Foley and The Rock. The four men battle at tag. Finally Mick Foley eliminates Viscera then eliminates The Rock, and then Gene Snikty and will face Triple H nwxt week on Raw
Movie Review: HBK-Angle will steal the show.
Summary: 5 Stars
Wrestlemania 21 is getting better and better. After RAW last night, it set up some more matches and added a few. Plus, I loved the latest Wrestlemania trailer with The Undertaker as Dirty Harry. Classic stuff here!! Here is the current card.
World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H vs Batista
This rivalry is amazing but I hope it doesn't turn into a disappointment like the Goldberg-Lesnar match last year. However, I think it will be a great match and am looking forward to it.
WWE Championship
JBL vs John Cena
After JBL cost Cena the U.S. title, I am confident JBL will lose the strap here. Plus, Cena deserves this. He is the biggest star on Smackdown, along with Taker. JBL will have been champion almost 10 months by the event so I hope he finally drops the strap.
Shawn Michaels vs Kurt Angle
This match will steal the entire show!! I am looking forward to this match more than any other on the card!! I will order the ppv for this match alone if I had to. This will be a definite candidate for the match of the year. I cannot decide who will win, since both sides are evenly matched. I am gonna go with HBK winning this one. Angle has gotten the most offense and the most talk in out of the 2. Plus, Angle illegaly eliminated HBK from the Rumble match, that should tip the scales in his favor instantly.
Legend vs Legend Killer Match
Randy Orton vs The Undertaker
This hasn't been announced yet, but Randy challenged Taker last night. You know Taker will accept. I just hope that Taker keeps his streak going at Mania. He should have won the title last year, but someone always cost him the match. He deserves a win here at Mania.
6-Man "Money in the Bank" Ladder Match(Winner gets open contract for a year long title shot)
Chris Jericho vs Chris Benoit vs Edge vs Shelton Benjamin vs Christian vs Kane
I am really looking forward to this match. I do not know of any other ladder matches that were a 6 man one on one match. Anyway, Y2J is a genius for coming up with this match. I don't know who to pick to win, but for now I think it will be either Edge or Kane. Only time will tell. This could also be a possible show stealer.
Womens Championship
Trish Stratus vs Christy Hemme
Will Christy's big push continue, or will Trish retain again? I don't know, but with Lita continuing her rivalry with Trish, I can see her retain. I still don't know though.
There you go, the annonced matches for Wrestlemania 21. Also, Piper's Pit returns with Stone Cold as the special guest. Hogan and a few others will be inducted into the Hall of Fame as well. This ppv will be what Wrestlemania XX should have been.
Movie Review: ITS GOING TO BE A SLOBBERKNOCKER
Summary: 5 Stars
ITS going to be a great WrestleMania,but its not going to be the most special like WrestleMania 50 might be if the P-P-V stays here long the. matches include:WWE Championship:John "Bradshaw" Layfield vs. John Cena,The controversy was kind of big,ever sice Jordan blew up the US Spinning Title belt John Cena has been coming more dangerous and angree like,giving Long an FU and getting arrested for smashing JBL`s limo(The same thing Eddie Guerrero did to JBL for giving his mother a Heart-attack.)i hope John Cena wins because i`m fed up of seeing JBL braging about himself.WORLD HeavyWeight championship:Triple H vs. Batista these to guys used be part of the same faction until big Dave(Batista`s first name) won the `05 Royal Rumble and was given 2 contracts one to go against JBL/Cena for the WWE Championship on Thursday night SmackDown! or to stay on Monday night RAW and go against his mentor the current HW champ,he picked the RAW one and has been trying to send messages to HHH by breaking his trademark weapon,the sledge hammer over his knee.:Legend vs. Legend Killer:UnderTaker vs. Randy Orton:Randy wants to "Kill" any legend on his list he has got Ric Flair,HBK,Sgt. Slaughter and Jake"Snake"Roberts(who tried to get RKO to change his mind about his challenge).and Orton sent messages by giving his friend,Stacy Kiebler an R.K.O on a previous edition of RAW and bringing his father "Cowboy" Bob Orton(Also one of this years Hall-Of Famers,also a half-Legend but Orton did`nt want to put him on his list of legends because Bob is his dad and Bob is retired and a little to old to fight,i think)to SmackDown! to beg UnderTaker for mercy so Randy can give him a deadly RKO,because of this Randy has lost popularity with the RAW and SmackDown! audiences,but in my opinion i want Randy to win because he is my favorate RAW star along with my favorate SmackDown! star John Cena(i wish these to would team up and win The Tag-Team title).MONEY In The Bank ladder match:this match is for a year lasting right to go against The WORLD heavyweight champ and the contestants are Chris Benoit,Chris Jericho,Kane,Benjamin,Edge and Christian.WWE Ladies championship:Trish Stratus vs. Christy.Eddie Guerrero vs. his tag team partner Rey Mysterio.SUMO match another Wrestler from another wrestling company,Akebono vs. Big Show and a special appearance from 2 legends in a once-a-while PIPERS PIT between the legendary "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and the "Texas RattleSnake" Stone Cold Steve Austin who has`nt been seen on WWE TV sice WrestleMania XX when he refed a match between Goldburg and Brock Lesnar.WrestleMania 21:Goes HollyWood is going to be a great event and i can`t wait to see the next WWE RAW/SmackDown! shows and the next Draft.WM XXI is tonite.
