Movie Reviews of WWE Wrestlemania XX
Movie Review: Wrestlemania 21 - the predictions (How it should be!!!)
Summary: 5 Stars
Even with all of the hype of Wrestlemania 20, lest face it, in the end it didn't live up to the hype. Apart from the triple threat world heavyweight title match the other matches were o.k. however I believe that if the WWE are as clever as they make they are then they will try to make Wrestlemaina 21 the biggest one yet. This means big hype, big matches and major superstars returning to the squared circle once again. I also think that the cross-over promotional matches from last year were an excellent idea and should happen again at Wrestlemania 21. Last year there were three matches, Kane Vs Undertaker, Brock Lesnar Vs Goldberg and the divas match.
Here are the matches that I would like to see at Wrestlemania 21:
Match 1: Fatal-4-Way for the U.S Title
Rey Mysterio vs. RVD vs. Eddie Gurrerro vs. Carlito Caribbean Cool (Champion)
This will be an excellent opener with lots of high flying moves and fast paced action. There should be a part at the end of the match where Rey and Carlito are down and so Eddie does the frog splash on Carlito at the same time as RVD does the 5 star frog splash on Rey and so both go for the cover at the same time and the referee does not know who to count for. I would like RVD to win this match as he truly deserves a major title and not just the tag team titles. (The match would be a 5/5 rating)
Match 2: WWE Women's Championship Match
Trish Stratus vs. Lita (Champ)
I must admit I always thought that women's matches only took place for the divas to show off but I was surprised when I saw Lita vs. Trish on Raw (6th December). The match was actually quite entertaining with some close pin falls and some cool moves by either woman, though saying that Lita still needs to improve on her in ring movement as it is still quite sloppy. Anyway their Raw match was good let's hope that if they wrestle again at Wrestlemania it is a better match. (Should; be a 3/5 rating).
Match 3: Inter-promotional Match - Iron Man Match
Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit
These two have had many matches over the years some were instant classics (ultimate submission) and some were not. But these two are still two of the best technical wrestlers alive today and I believe would make an amazing Ironman match. This rivalry would begin at the Royal Rumble where Angle is being interviewed and is claming to be the best wrestler in the WWE today and as always boasting about his Gold Medals when Benoit interrupts the interview and begins to insult Angle. Angle then claims that he will win the royal rumble and win the WWE Title at Wrestlemania 21. Benoit laughs and asks Angle about how last year (Wrestlemania 20) how he won the Royal Rumble even though he came in number one and then went on to win the World Heavyweight Title whereas on the same night Angle lost to Eddie Gurrerro because of his boot slipping off. Benoit laughs at how Angle has not won the title since and has not even been in a WWE title match. They both argue and then in the Rumble Benoit Eliminates Angle. Then Angle comes back in and hits Benoit with a chair. After the rumble Angle interferes in Benoit's matches on Raw. The rivalry continues when Benoit causes Angle to lose his match at No Way Out. Then Angle demands Vince to make the match and so the iron man match is made.
The match itself will be excellent with Angle tapping out to cross face and Benoit to the Anklelock. I would like Benoit to win the match (Match would be a 5/5 rating).
Match 4: Fatal-4-way Ladder match for the Intercontinental Title.
Edge vs. Chris Jericho vs. Christian vs. Shelton Benjamin (champion)
This will obviously be one of the best matches of the night. Lots of excitement that happens in ladder matches and the ladder is used in many innovative ways to bust the superstars open. Jericho does the walls of Jericho on Christian on top of the ladder. Also when Christian is hanging from the title Edge does a flying spear from the top rope. Jericho does a moonsault from the ladder to Edge through a table. Jericho wins the match and becomes the intercontinental champ for the eighth time. (Defiantly would be 5/5 and one of the best ladder matches ever)
Match 5: Triple H vs. The Rock
The Rock returns just before Wrestlemania as he did last year and as he usually does will insult Triple H. This match was set up when Eugene told The Rock that Triple H is his favourite wrestler but because of the Rocks Hollywood career it was left undeveloped. But hopefully these two will build a rivalry until Eric Bishoff makes the match and it should be a good match but not the best of the night. Triple H has lost some of his in ring ability and can sometime underperform. I would want Tripe H to win as I can't stand The Rock (3/5 rated match)
Match 6: World Tag Team Title Match - A 3-team tag team turmoil.
Rhyno & Tajiri vs. La Resistance vs. Eugene & William Regal (champions)
Should be a normal tag team match with Eugene doing his usual frolicking around. Hopefully Rhyno and Tajiri will win, as they truly deserve them. (2/5 rating)
Match 8: WWE Cruiserweight Title Match
Chavo Guerrero vs. Billy Kidman (champion - after beating Funaki on Smackdown)
These two hate each other to the max and after Chavo's return from his injury; have not yet been in a singles match so Chavo has not got his true revenge on Kidman for what he did to him. This will be an excellent match with highflying moves and lots of close pin falls. Kidman will hit the shooting start press but Chavo will kick out of the pin. Chavo will hit the gori-bomb but Kidman will kick out. Finally Chavo will do the shooting start press, pin Kidman and win the title as well as getting his revenge. (4/5 rating)
Match 9: WWE Tag Team Title Match - 4 team Tag Team Turmoil
Dudley Boys vs. Hardcore Holly & Daniel Puder vs. Rene Dupree & Kenzo Suzuki vs. Luther Reigns & Mark Jindrak (champions)
Should be a better than the Raw Tag team title matches with more intense fighting. Luther will dominate and there will be some close pin falls. Luther and Jindrak should retain the titles but I think Hardcore Holly & Puder will win so that WWE can boost the promotion of Daniel Puder as a real wrestler. (3/5 match)
Match 10: Booker T vs. JBL
This match would take place because Booker T would come out on Smackdown and make fun of JBL for losing the title to Undertaker at No Way Out. JBL would get his cabinet to attack Booker T. Theodore Long would make a tag match on Smackdown being JBL & Orlando Jordan vs. Undertaker & Booker T. JBL would cheat and pin Booker T causing Booker to demand a match against JBL at Wrestlemania. (To be honest I don't think this match will really happen I'm just saying it, as I have not put them in a match yet) If the match happened will be better than their Survivor Series match and will be an o.k. Match. I would want Booker T to win, as JBL is getting boring now. (Should be a 3/5 rating)
Match 11: Last man Standing Match
Batista vs. Kane
I've always wanted these two to have a proper match with no interferences. Even though they have had matches in the past they have usually been interrupted or someone has helped Batista to win and so these two have not had a proper match. I believe that these two are of equal strength and power and so could make an excellent last man standing match. A normal match would not be enough for what these two can truly do to each other. This rivalry will start at the Royal Rumble where Batista Impressively Lifts Kane up in the air and throws him out of the ring. Kane will get furious and will go back in and the two will start to fight until Kane is forced out by the referees. The rivalry will continue to develop on Raw week after week as both say they are better and bigger than the other. Bishoff will then say that the bigger and better man will be the man who is the last man standing at Wrestlemania 21. This match itself should be a classic and in the words of JR " a true slobberknocker". There will be no Interference, as Evolution would have already split up by the Royal Rumble. Both men will be busted open and Kane will Choke slam Batista through the Spanish Announce table. This should be long match. I would like Batista to win and be the last man standing as I believe he is better than Kane. (4/5 Should be a Brutal and awesome match)
Match 11: Inter-promotional Match
Randy Orton vs. John Cena
For some reason I believe that this match will defiantly take place at Wrestlemania 21 and I will be quite surprised if it doesn't. These two came into the WWE at roughly the same time and are almost the same age. They are both young and are excellent athletes; they both are very popular with the fans and are worthy of being in main events. I also remember that there was a confrontation between these two backstage at a recent PPV but I'm not sure which one. I believe this match has already been promoted, if you have played the new video game Smackdown Vs Raw then you would know that in the beginning intro we here JR shouting "oh my god its Raw Vs Smackdown" and we see Orton and Cena fighting in the ring. I believe that if this match happened it will a superb match with close falls and some awesome wrestling. Orton would be on the top rope and would do his trademark splash but Cena will catch him on his shoulders and do the FU. I wouldn't care who wins that match as in my view both are as good as each other and both deserve to win. (Would be a 5/5 rated match)
Match 11: WWE Title Match - Triple threat match
Big Show vs. Brock Lesnar vs. Undertaker (champion)
Ok... o.k... I know why Brock Lesnar? But I would not have included him if not for one thing. I saw Armageddon 2004 two days before I wrote this review and if you remember in the 3-on-1-handicap match Big show used an F-5 to pin Mark Jindrak and win. Now this may be just me but why would they make Big Show use an F-5 all of a sudden, WWE don't usually do this unless there is a specific reason. In my view this usually means two things: 1 being that Brock has defiantly left WWE for good and so his finisher was given to Big Show permanently, or 2 for causing a storyline in which Brock makes his return. Brock would show up at the Royal Rumble and eliminate the Big Show. Then these two would argue for who should face Undertaker at Wrestlemania 21 for the WWE title. They would have singles match at No Way Out, which Lesnar would win, but by cheating. Theodore Long would settle the argument by making this triple threat match for Wrestlemania 21. The match will be excellent with all three superstars giving their best. Taker would tombstone Lesnar but Lesnar will kick out. Big Show will double chokeslam on Lesnar and Taker though the Smackdown Announce table. This will be a good long match, and I would want Undertaker to win as he deserves to remain the champion for longer, and plus he would continue his Wrestlemania winning streak. (Should be a 5/5 rating match).
BUT: if Lesnar doesn't not return then it would be Big Show vs. Undertaker and would still be a good match.
Match 12: World Heavyweight Title Match - Hell In A Cell
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Shawn Michaels (champion)
I know... I know a dream match... is very unlikely for it to actually happen, but come on you know if it did it would probably be the match of the night. Even if it was not a Hell in A cell and just a singles match it would still be amazing. This is how I think this match would be set up. Shawn Michaels will return on Raw and would win the vacated World heavyweight Title by beating Edge (this would allow him to get the title as well as having his revenge on Edge for costing him the title at Taboo Tuesday). Then at the Royal Rumble Stone Cold Steve Austin would make his shocking return by knocking out Christian and taking his place in the Rumble match. He would win the Royal Rumble and so it would mean that he faces Michaels at Wrestlemania. Even though I would prefer it to be a Hell in A cell the match would still be good if it was not. If it is a Hell in A Cell the match will be absolutely amazing. Will be long and very bloody. Both me will give it their all and would be exhausted by the end of the match. They would leave the cell and climb on the top where they fight each other and try to push each other from the top. Austin would DDT Michaels on the top of the cell causing it to break and they would fall in the ring. Both men would be down and then Michaels gets up and sets Austin up for the sweet chin music just as he is going to hit Austin, he blocks it and hits the Stunner. Both men then collapse but Austin manages to fall on top of Michaels and the ref counts three causing Austin to win the World Heavyweight title. Sounds good but is very unlikely to happen. I would want Austin to win because we all want to see him as the champ again. (Would be the best match of the night - 5/5). I think I speak for every WWE fan when I say "PLEASE WWE MAKE THIS MATCH"
So there it is, Wrestlemania 21 - the way I would make it if I were making the matches. 12 superb matches, some realistic some just plain dream matches but if this happened then it would defiantly be the greatest Wrestlemania of ALL time and by god I mean it.
Movie Review: Wrestlemania 20- "Where Superstars become Legends"
Summary: 5 Stars
Wrestlemania 20 "Where It All Begins Again"
This DVD contains: SC: Sexual Content G: Gore
United States Championship Match
John Cena Vs. The Big Show
This was a pretty good match. Excellent opener for Wrestlemania 20. Got crowd up on their feet. John Cena wins the match with 2 F-Us to The Big Show.
Overall Rating: 8/10 (He may be scrawny but he's a strong S.O.B!)
World Tag Team Championship Match- Fatal-Four Way Tag
Rob Van Dam & Booker T Vs. La Resistance Vs. The Dudley Boyz Vs. Garrison Cade & Mark Jindrak
Nothing to really see hear just a regular Raw tag team style match. BORING!
Overall Rating: 4/10 (because Rob Van Dam & Booker T win)
Chris Jericho Vs. Christian
This match has been set up since Chris Jericho decided he wanted to be with Trish and not make it a competition with Christian. Christian then turns on Chris Jericho and set up this very memorable match with a priceless ending.
Overall Rating: 8/10 (Great wrestling from both superstars)
Rock n' Sock Connection Vs. Evolution- 2-on-3 Handicap Match
Everybody thinks this match was really good. I know Mick Foley was a great hardcore legend and I like him, but that was in the past and The Rock is a has been wrestler who has sold out to the WWE. I say he needs to stick with one profession and one profession only. Go back to Hollywood, Rock!
Overall Rating: 3/10 (Very stupid ending, Mick Foley gets a little RKO and gets pinned after kicking out to bigger moves earlier in the years like the: Chokeslam, Tombstone and The Rock Bottom, Come on Foley!)
Playboy Evening Gown Match
Torrie Wilson & Sable Vs. Stacey Keibler & Miss Jackie
This match is very hot! It all started when Stacey Keibler and Miss Jackie (the Raw divas didn't get a chance at being Playboy Centerfolds. Instead Playboy made the right decision and went with the hottest divas in the WWE period. Anyway, match did suck but it's still worth watching seeing the girls and their bra and panties. Smackdown! Divas kicks Raw Divas ass!
Overall Rating: 5/10 (A dream match in heaven but not Wrestlemania worthy, Stacey Keibler's boobs are to small to be in Playboy anyway and Miss Jackie is too timid. They're Maxim and FHM material.)
Cruiserweight Open Challenge for the Cruiserweight Championship
Rey Mysterio, Jr. Vs. Chavo Guerrero, Jr. Vs. Ultimo Dragon Vs. Funaki Vs. Billy Kidman Vs. Nunzio Vs. Tajiri Vs. Shannon Moore
Great Match! Awesome!......Uh! but it was cut short. Probably due to the time limit of the whole entire evening. It probably would have been cool if they put it at Judgment Day the next month, then it would have been a long match. Still good match. High Flying and Fast action brought to you only by Smackdown!
Overall Rating: 9/10 (Rey Mysterio, Jr. gets screwed and Chavo takes the gold. Like uncle like nephew: Lying, Cheating and Stealing, like Eddie Guerrero!)
Interpromotional Match/Special Referee
Brock Lesner Vs. Goldberg
"The Next Big Thing" Vs. "Who's Next", Icon Vs. Icon, Smackdown! Vs. Raw, 2 Former Champions. A match made in heaven.........Not!!!!!!!!! A match like this should have been the biggest match of the century but WWE has made a joke of these two amazing superstars. Should have been the greatest. There were no winners in this match. Both superstars have parted way in the WWE now.
Overall Rating: 4/10 (This is a mercy rating. I mean come on! The first 5 minutes of the match was nothing but stare downs. I am very disappointed. They got what they deserved and that is a Stone Cold Stunner! Anyway, Goldberg wins. Whoopee L
WWE Tag Team Championship
2 Cool Vs. World Greatest Tag Team Vs. APA Vs. The Basham Brothers
This match is kind of like Raw Tag Team Match but a little better and that ain't saying much. Anyway, 2 Cool wins and does their usual dance and entertains the crowd.
Overall Rating: 5/10 (Good but not good enough. If the WWE wants to sell more tickets they need to take all their titles seriously. WWE if you read this please bring back the TLC (aka Tables, Ladders and Chairs)
Women's Championship Match
Lose Hair or Title Match (If Victoria Loses she loses title but if Molly Holly loses she get her hair cut.
It sucks what the WWE is doing to the women's championship but Victoria is the one that bring something to the table. She deserves to hold the title more than anyone in the WWE. Not bad for a women's match should have been on Raw though.
Overall Rating: 6/10 (Only got this because I love Victoria and I have a crush on her and it was good to see her wrestle and regain the title and Oh Yeah! Molly Holly is bald. HAHA! J
WWE Championship Match
Eddie Guerrero Vs. Kurt Angle
This match was flawless! It had everything a fan could want. 2 of the best wrestlers on Smackdown! collide after having problems after No Way Out. Kurt Angle was bitter and couldn't stand that Eddie Guerrero will main event Wrestlemania and he wasn't so he did something about it. It was kind of funny it was like Kurt Angle was looking at his past coming out and seeing Molly Holly get her hair cut. Just like Kurt Angle, bald!!!!!
Overall Rating: 10/10 (Eddie wins by Lying, Cheating, and Stealing and it was funny! Both individuals fought hard and deserve to be at Wrestlemania.)
Interpromontional Match (The Return of the Deadman)
The Undertaker Vs. Kane
This match, a lot of people loved and hated this match, but the Legendary Undertaker made it worth it. His entrance was like 3 minutes. It was very chilling and Kane wanted to get out of Madison Square Garden right away! After screwing his brother at Survivor Series Buried Alive against Bloody Vince McMahon. The Undertaker gets his revenge and at the same time keeps his 12-0 winning streak.
Overall Rating: 8/10 (Could have made it an Inferno or even a Casket match that would really make it Wrestlemania worthy)
World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H Vs. Chris Benoit Vs. Shawn Michaels
This was a pretty good match but from all the commotion going at Raw, I thought this match was pretty ok but just ok. The Eddie Guerrero and Kurt Angle match was better in my opinion. Anyway, Chris Benoit got what he deserved just like Eddie Guerrero the WWE and World Heavyweight Championship. Both 18 year and up veterans finally get their shot.
Overall rating: 9/10 (Like I said I was expecting more from all the commotion. Anyway, Awesome, the ending was both best friends sharing a warm moment holding both titles high in the air. Awesome Night J
Overall Rating: This DVD contains 3 Disc. Packed and loaded with extra features (that's why it is 3 disc) and it contains "The Mania of Wrestlemania" "The Top 10 Matches of Wrestlemania" hosted by Ric Flair, Eddie Guerrero on "Byte This" After match interviews with the wrestlers. Cool DVD definitely add this to your WWE wrestling collection or your Wrestlemania Collection. (Rating: 10/10)
Movie Review: WrestleMania XX
Summary: 5 Stars
WrestleMania was a great ppv event and an even better dvd with tons of extras and the whole event too. Heres a review of the whole dvd.
Disc 1
Wrestlemania video after the harlem boys choir sings
Match 1 United States Championship Big Show (c) Vs John Cena
The was pretty good opener it got the crowd going. Nice FU by cena even though big show kicked out it had a pretty good ending to a decent opener that did what it was suppose to. 6/10
Backstage Bischoff tells Coach to look for the undertaker
Backstage Randy Orton cuts a promo on mick foley also show footage of the fued over the past couple of months
Match 2 World Tag Team Championship Fatal Four Way Booker T & Rob Van Dam vs The Dudley Boys vs La Resistance vs Mark Jindrak & Garrison Cade.
This a pretty good tag team match better than the smackdown fatal four way match that happened later in the way. It was a good way to get alot of the raw stars on the card with a fatal four way. I rather have had this match been elimination style but still pretty decent some good moves by every team Nice sequence to finish the match. 6.5/10
Backstage coach looks for the undertaker and runs into mean gene and bobby heenan pretty funny segment
Match 3 Christian Vs Chris Jericho
This was a really good match it had a pretty decent storyline with a good twist at the end of this match these two wrestlers had good chemistry. It was the first great match of the night and the whole match told a story. 8/10
Mick Foley & The Rock interview pretty entertaining
Match 4 Handicap Match Randy Orton, Ric Flair & Batista Vs Mick Foley & The Rock
This was prolly the greatest handicap match ever because there havent even been that many good ones. This was a great match flair & The Rock were so over with crowd they had there enteraining moments of this match. The whole match was based around mick and randy orton but every wrestler had there moments in this match it good finish crowd was really into this one. 8/10
WWE Hall Of Fame Ceremoy
all the wrestlers that were inducten in the class of o4 were shown.
Playboy Evening Gown Match Torrie & Sable Vs Jackie & Stacy
Wasnt really a match but all four women are just smoking hot. 2/10 for actual match but for the enterainment value 10/10
Backstage Eddie motivates Chris Beniot
Match 6 WWE Cruiserweight Open Chavo Guerrero vs. Jamie Noble vs. Funaki vs. Ultimo Dragon vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Nunzio vs. Tajiri vs. Shannon Moore vs. Billy Kidman
This was a pretty enterianing match each wrestler got its spots in except for funaki. Just would have asked for about 5 or 10 minutes addes to this match but other than that was still a good match 7/10
Match 7 Interpromotional Match: Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar: Special Guest-Referee, Stone Cold Steve Austin
This match was just terrible i mean it was so hyped up as being a brawl it just couldnt do anything right. It would have been better if both wrestlers didnt leave the company right after this match but still it was one of the biggest dissapoinments in wrestlemania history they should have added a gimmick like a cage match or something to make it more entaining. 4/10
Mr. McMahon Thanks You
Match 8 WWE Tag Team Championship: Scotty 2 Hotty & Rikishi vs. APA vs. Basham Brothers vs. World's Greatest Tag Team
Nothing special pretty boring one worst matches of the night 4.5/10
Disc 2
Jesse the Body interview Donald Trump
Match 9 Women's Championship Victoria Vs Molly
Alright the gimmick really didnt help this bout go over 4/10
Match 10 WWE Championship Eddie Guerrero Vs Kurt Angle
This was a hell of a match very good main event by smackdown both wrestlers gave it all they had and it really showed very original way to end this match which proves the lying cheating and stealing for guerrero. 9/10
Match 11 Undertaker Vs Kane
Pretty good storyline great promos to lead into this match real cool entrance by undertaker felt like a wrestlemania moment the overall match was alright wasnt long at all cause prolly undertakers ring rust. 7.5/10
Match 12 World Heavyweight Championship Chris Beniot Vs Triple H Vs Shawn Michaels
This was the match of the year what a match about 25 to 30 minute match that was action packed it had everything from tablebumps to submissions to techinacal wrestling even a little high flying manuvers. This will defienatly be remembered as one of the greatest main events to any ppv not only wrestlemania. 10/10

Movie Review: Masterpiece
Summary: 5 Stars
Wrestlemania 20 was one of the best wrestlemania's ever. I was lucky enough to be there in person.

WORLD TAG TITLE 4-WAY: Booker & RVD vs La Resistance vs The Dudleyz vs Jindrak & Cade..
This was another good match but was not superb. with it been a 4 way match it was sometimes hard to get what was going on. With it.Booker T gave Rob Conway the axe kick and Rob Van Dam hit a frog splash for the pin! 6/10
Christian vs Chris Jericho..
This was an excellant match. Many good wrestling moves and alot of bumps.Some of the moves and high risks they take is out of this world. If you like one of these wrestles than you should buy the dvd just for this match.Trish Stratus showed up and "accidentally" elbowed Chris Jericho, thinking it was Christian..
Christian slipped into the ring and scored the pin on Jericho while pulling the trunks!
Trish Stratus then got in the ring to help Jericho, but turned HEEL and slapped him instead!

Christian grabbed Trish Stratus by the hair and made out with her as Jericho's heart broke.10/10
HANDICAP MATCH: The Evolution (Randy Orton & Batista & Ric Flair) vs The Rock & Mick Foley..

Dispite the loss, The Rock led the crowd in a thunderous ovation for Mick Foley (Foley! Foley! Foley!) 8/10
PLAYBOY EVENING GOWN MATCH: Sable & Torrie Wilson vs Stacy Keibler & Miss Jackie..
This match is just stupid just like the miller cat fights girls last year this is wrestlemania people.All four Divas stripped down to their bra & panties before the match even got started!
Torrie Wilson pinned Jackie Gayda to win -- Stacy seems to be upset with Jackie for losing the match.4/10

The crowd immediately chanted "YOU SOLD OUT" to the departing Brock Lesnar, followed by "Nah Nah Nah Hey Hey"..
Jim Ross & Jerry Lawler acknowledge the reaction, and explain that Brock Lesnar has dreams of being in the NFL..
Mostly support for Bill Goldberg, with the exception of a few "Goldberg Sucks!" chants..
The crowd ruined any chance of the match getting over with chants of "This Match Sucks" and "Hogan" and "Boring!"
Bill Goldberg won after a spear and a jackhammer, with Referee Austin having no influence at all..
Brock Lesnar took his time getting to his feet and was met with "Nah nah nah nah hey hey hey good bye" chants!
Brock Lesnar took offense to the fans treatment and gave them the finger, as well as Steve Austin..

Steve Austin then gave Bill Goldberg a Stone Cold Stunner of his own! 6/10

Victoria pinned Molly to retain her championship, and then Molly got her head shaved bald! Should have hapeened on Raw. 5/10
WWE TITLE MATCH: Eddy Guerrero vs Kurt Angle..
One of the matches of the night between this two great superstars.After a hard fought match that really heated up at the end, Eddy Guerrero picked up the suprising win!
Eddy Guerrero unlaced his boot, so when Kurt Angle tried for the ankle lock, the boot came off. 10/10
BROTHER VS BROTHER: The Undertaker vs Kane..
I loves this match for every thing that went with it the lod times. Iys great to see the deadman back.The Undertaker was led to the ring by a group of mysterious masked druids which included John Walters, and:
~~~Roman, Fred Sampson, Kevin Knight, Chad Wicks, Ken Phoenix, Johnny Heartbreaker, Vince Vicallo & Arch Kincaid..
The surprise of the night was the shocking return of the Undertaker's manager, and Kane's "father" - Paul Bearer!
The Undertaker came out in full "Darkside" mode with the suit, the hair, the attitude, and the music..
The Undertaker pinned Kane after a tombstone piledriver! 10/10

Chris Benoit beats the odds and made Triple H tap out to capture the World Heavyweight championship!!!!!!
Smackdown!'s WWE Champion Eddy Guerrero came out and celebrated with Chris Benoit as the show came to a close.. 10/10
Overall a great ppv 9/10

This match should have been an elimination match. This was not one of the best tag team matches, but the reigning champions, (RVD & Booker) made this match somewhat exciting. 6.5/10
Chris Jericho vs. Christian
This was a surprisingly good match. Although it was not even near the match between Y2J & HBK at last year's Wrestlemania, the ending made up for it. This was an entertaining match, and the ending shocked me a little. I was expecting Jericho & Christian to proclaim that they have been friends all along, but I was fooled. 8/10
Rock 'N Sock Connection vs. Evolution
This was a pretty good match. This did not have the best technical wrestling, but it still kept me watching it. With Rock's recent return, i was a little dissapointed with the outcome. 7/10
First-Ever Playboy Evening Gown Match
Torrie Wilson & Sable vs. Stacy Keibler & Jackie Gayda
This was good, but not as good as I expected. Since this was Wrestlemania, I expected something better, but I can't really complain, considering all 4 of these women are hot no matter what. 7/10
Cruiswerweight Open-Cruiserweight Championship
Chavo Guerrero [c] vs Rey Mysterio vs Billy Kidman vs Jamie Noble vs Ultimo Dragon vs Funaki vs Akio vs Tajiri vs Shannon Moore vs Nunzio
This match was great. Although, it could have been even better if it was given more time. The ending was a bit sudden, but there was a lot of high-flyin' action throughout this contest. 8/10
Raw vs. Smackdown!
Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar
Biggest dissapointment of the night. However, it wasn't as bad as everyone has been saying. It was a little bit like the Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior match a while back, this had lots of strength tests. Even though this match was nothing spectacular, it was nice to see Lesnar get speared and jackhammered, Goldberg get F5'd, and Stone Cold Steve Austin stun both Lesnar & Goldberg. 5/10
Fatal Four-Way for the Tag Team Championship
Rikishi & Scotty 2 Hotty [c] vs. The Self-Proclaimed World's Greatest Tag Team vs. APA vs. Basham Brothers
Like I said before, I would have liked to see these tag matches be in elimination format. I don't really care for any of these wrestlers, but I thought TSPWGTT should have won. Okay match 6/10
Women's Championship
Victoria [c] vs. Molly Holly (if molly loses, she must have her head shaved)
This was an alright women's match. It was just like every other women's match. It wasn't as good as last year's triple-threat between Victoria, Stratus, & Jazz, but this was still ok. The best part was seeing Molly getting her head shaved.
5/10
WWE Championship
Eddie Guerrero [c] vs. Kurt Angle
This was a very good match, not as good as Lesnar vs. Angle last year at WM 19. I was expecting Angle to win, but Guerrero won, giving this match a little suspense. Good technical wrestling. Although I like Guerrero, I would have liked to see Angle win. 8.5/10
The Dead Will Rise Again!
The Undertaker vs. Kane
I was slightly disappointed with this match. Taker's entrance was awesome, but entrances alone don't make matches live forever. Undertaker didn't look like I was hoping him to, but he was still somewhat "scary" looking. Pretty short match for such a long build-up. 7/10
Triple Threat for the World Heavyweight Championship
Triple H [c] vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit
This was by far, the best match of the night, and easily the best match of 2004. Very long, grueling match and wonderful performance from all three of these men. It was nice to see Chris Benoit finally win the title. 10/10
After the World Heavyweight Championship match, Guerrero came out to the ring and held Benoit's hand up in victory. This was a memorable moment and a good way to end Wrestlemania XX.
As I said at the top, this DVD will contain 3-discs. I have already pre-ordered this DVD from Best Buy, and I advise you to do the same. The DVD is $27.99 before tax and $29.95 w/tax.
Wrestlemania XX is a must-buy for a real WWE Fan.
