Movie Review: Wrestlemania Gets Its Prestige Back
Summary: 5 Stars
When you look at the card on paper you see Vince McMahon vs HBK, Mick Foley vs Edge Hardcore Match, Micki James vs Trish Stratus & Mark Henry vs Undertaker. You see this card and you expect to be disapointed but you're sorely wrong as these where the best matches on the card.
Here is a match by match review of the show in no particular order as i'm doing it from memory so bear with me.
Big Show & Kane vs Carlito vs Chris Masters.
3/5 This match had potential but it let me down the only real high point of the match was that Carlito was in it.
6 Man Money In The Bank Ladder Match. RVD vs Shelton vs Ric Flair vs Matt Hardy vs Finlay vs Lashley.
5/5 Amazing match and like always Ric, RVD & Shelton didn't let us down but the other 3 guys really were terrible in the match but it still deserves its 5 stars
Undertaker vs Mark Henry Casket Match.
3/5 very slow match that i honestly expected to be worse but Undertaker delivered a great Wrestlemania match as usual.
Boogeyman vs Booker T.
0/5 The worst match on the card, i am a big fan of Booker's and even he didn't deliver in this match which was a real disapointment in my book.
Mick Foley vs Edge Hardcore Match.
6/5 This was definately the show stealer and shows that Mick Foley is still the hardcore legend and it proved that Edge will still go to any lengths to capture the eyes of the fans.
Mickie James vs Trish Stratus Womens Championship.
5/5 Amazing match that also was one of the best matches on the card it was more the storytelling than the wrestling and Mickie had the crowd on her side to no surprise.
Vince McMahon vs Shawn Michaels Street Fight.
5/5 Incredible match that showed us the old Shawn Michaels and showed us why we love him and Vince really perfomed amazingly in this match.
Rey Mysterio vs Kurt Angle vs Randy Orton World Championship.
5/5 This match was waaaaaayyyyy too short but for the time that these 3 men where in the ring they seriously delivered an incredible match.
John Cena vs Triple H WWE Championship.
5/5 This was a great match and the atmosphere was incredible and i like most of the fans where 100% behind HHH winning but all in all this was an amazing match.
This was an incredible PPV and the best Wrestlemania since WM17 so i seriously recommend you check this out because it was worth the PPV price so it will really be worth the DVD price.
Movie Review: What a WrestleMania!
Summary: 5 Stars
What a Wrestlemania this turned out to be.The dark match before the show which is an 18 man Battle Royal match was won by Viscera.
The first match that was broadcasted is a tag team match between Big Show and Kane vs. Carlito and Chris Masters for the World Tag Team Championships.Not a bad match but it was pretty slow.Kane and Big Show win.I give this a 6.5 out of 10.
The second match was Money in the Bank.Not the most exciting MITB but it was a very good match.RVD wins MITB.I give this a 7 out of 10.
The third match was JBL vs. Chris Benoit for the United States Championship.It was a good match but the ending was crappy.JBL wins by cheating(as usual.)6 out of 10.
The fourth match was a Hardcore match between Edge and Mick Foley.This is UNBELIEVABLE!!!!Barbwire,steel pans,and fire are what made Mick Foley great and this match is what made Mick Foley say Edge is the greatest wrestler in history.Oh and I forgot to mention THUMBTACKS!!!Edge wins. Unbelievable match 9 out of 10.
The fifth match was a Handicap match between Boogeyman vs. Booker T and his wife Sharmell.I really didn't care about this match.Boogeyman wins.5 out of 10.
The sixth match is Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus for the Womens Championshp.One of the best womens matches ever.Mickie wins!6.2 out of 10.
The seventh Match is a Casket match between The Undertaker and Mark Henry.I like this match a lot.'Taker wins.7 out of 10.
The eighth match is match of the year.Shawn Michaels vs. Mr.McMahon in a No Holds Barred match.HBK wins.9 out of 10.
The ninth match is a Triple Threat match for the World Heavyweigt Championship.Kurt Angle vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Randy Orton.The Match should have been longer but they made every minute worth watching.Rey finally wins the big one.8.5 out of 10.
The tenth match isn't even worth mentioning.
The eleventh match and the main event John Cena vs. Triple H for the WWE Championship.The entrances are great the match was overall great.John Cena wins.'The Champ is here!'9 out of 10.
You get all these matches plus the 2006 Hall of Fame Ceremony in its entirety AND you also get the emotional return of Saturday Nights Main Event in its entirety including a Street Fight between Shane McMahon and HBK which is a copy of the Montreal Screwjoband a beer drinking contest between Stone Cold and JBL.This is a must have!
Movie Review: WRESTLEMANIA 22 PREDICTIONS
Summary: 5 Stars
1. Cruiserweight Championship
Gregory Helms vs. Kid Kash
Would have liked another invitational type match but they already had one at the last 2 paper views. Should be nice fasted paced action though.
Prediction: Helms
2. Interpromotional Money in the Bank Ladder match
RVD v.s. Carlito v.s. Shelton v.s. Hardy v.s. Lashley v.s Flair
Hopefully they use both brands because you can't have a ladder match without Hardy. I love Flair but get him out of the match.
Prediction: RVD
3. Champs v.s. Champs: Kane & Show v.s. MNM
This will be made because neither of them have a match but should be pretty good to see who are the better champs
Prediction: MNM
4. Hardcore Match: Edge v.s. Cactus Jack
This will happen and betta be a hardcore match. Look for one like the one with Randy from Backlash 04. Tacks, barby, chairs, steps, and tables all make appearances in a great match.
Prediction: Edge
5. Undertaker v.s. Henry
This will happen because Henry will screw Taker in his rematch with Angle on SD! He was suppose to screw Taker at No Way Out but Taker probably convinced someone not to have Henry ruin their classic match. Should be good with a huge tombstone to end it.
Prediction: Undertaker
6. Shane and Vince McMahon and Masters v.s. Shawn Michaels and Janetty
I think the wwe was just bluffing the Vince/Shawn match and will change. A regular match with Vince and Shawn would be boring, so hopefully they change it to this or this might be a raw match
Prediction: Michaels
7. WWE Title Match: HHH v.s. Cena
Should be a good/brutal match. Lots of near falls but a typical Cena match where he hits an FU out of nowhere. Tragically Cena will win again to extend the feud.
Prediction: Cena
8. Triple Threat Match for the World Heavyweight Title
Angle v.s. Orton v.s. Mysterio
Match of the Year. Should be great, highflying action from the top 3 wrestlers in the business (maybe RVD instead of Orton). Look for an RKO on the steps, a cool table spot on Randy and Angle, Angle slam from the top rope, and much more. This is the toughest one to predict but I'll go with Rey
Predicton: Rey Mysterio
This should be a great Mania. Hopefully they have more multie person matches like fatal four ways or another cruiserweight invitational so they use their whole roster.

Movie Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
Since 2000, WWE has been on target with WrestleMaina. This years event featured alot of great moments to add to the list of WrestleMaina moments that people will never forget. The hardcore match between Foley and Edge was a sight to behold. I notice this PPV had alot of hardcore matches, something they should have kept up.
Carlito & Chris Masters vs Kane & Big Show: Bad opener. Its funny how Kane and Big Show were called the most dominant tag team in the history of the WWE. They didnt have tag teams back them to wrestle and the tag team division right now is still a joke.
Shelton Benjamin vs Ric Flair vs RVD vs Finlay vs Matt Hardy vs Lashley: Since 2000, WrestleMaina has always put in a ladder match because they know thats what people love. Money in the Bank has been the highlight of the past two Maina's and this is no expection. Short match with RVD winning.
JBL vs Chris Benoit: Good match but the ending was typical JBL.
Edge vs Mick Foley: This match stole the show.
Mickie James vs Trish Stratus: Skip
Mark Henry vs Undertaker: A decent match but it wasnt so great. Taker may have won 15 straight at WrestleMaina but some of the wins are over some pretty bad wrestlers.
Shawn Michaels vs Mr McMahon: After two dismal matches, this is anther gem. McMahon may not be the greatest wrestler but he always puts on his best show. An excellent match.
Kurt Angle vs. Randy Orton vs. Rey Mysterio: One of the best triple threats ive ever seen. Call me crazy but this match was really short and delivered in the time it was given. Awesome match. I hate to say it but since Eddie died, Rey seems to be getting a free pass. First winning the rumble and now the world title. Mysterio is a great wrestler but the way WWE packages world champions, he doesnt fit the bill.
Funny as I go down the list of matches and realizs alot of the wrestlers aren't in WWE anymore.
John Cena vs. Triple H: Amazing Triple H lost in the biggest main event of the year. Decent match but the Smackdown match was far better then this match.
Excellent dvd. Alot of quality matches but a few that could have been left on Raw. Its a shame that WWE didnt put out WrestleMaina 23 the same way as this set. This set included the whole Saturday Night's Main Event show and the Hall of Fame ceremony. Maybe they'll do it for 24.
