Movie Reviews of WWF: WrestleMania X-Seven
Movie Review: 6 Amazing Matches= 1 Amazing Wrestlemania
Summary: 5 Stars
Big Show vs. Kane vs. Raven- one of the best, if not the best Hardcore title match I've ever seen. Almost evry weapon immaginable comes into play, and dont worry about trying to get a guided tour of the Astrodome, cause this match goes all around the building. A ****1/4 match up.
Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit- in my opinion, this was their third best match (the first being RR '03, and the second Backlash '01). This shows why Angle and Benoit are the two top wrestlers in the WWF/E today. This match had it all wrestling, counter wrestling, suplexes, submissions, crossfaces, angle slams, ankle locks, diving headbuts, moonsaults, ect. ****1/2 (Would have been a perfect 5 if it were about 5 mins longer and a clean victory was given (like at RR '03).
Shane McMahon vs. Vince McMahon- WOW! I couldn't believe what I saw in this match. Shane's two amazing bumps (announcers table elbow, and the "van-SHANE-minator")make this match one of the best of the night. Mick Foleys presence, Trish's slap to Vince, and the hardcore action make this match good as well. ****
Dudley Boys vs. Hardy Boys vs. Edge/Christain- TLC II- amazing, simply amazing match. All three of these teams know how to put on a show. The bumps taken by these 6 men are unbelievable (Matt and Bubba flying through 4 TABLES, Jeff swantoning off a 20ft. ladder, Edges spear of Jeff, ect.) ****1/4, the reason its not higher up is these three teams have better matches at summerslam, wrestlemania 16, and about two months later on smackdown with Benoit/Jericho (that match was *****)
Undertaker vs. Triple H- this match shocked me. I love Taker, he's my favourite of all time (other than Benoit)and this was one of the best matches he ever had, and hes had alot of great matches (vs. HBK, vs. Foley, vs. Kane, vs. Lesnar, vs. Hart, ect.) Triple H shows why he's the game in this match and how he can take it to the Undertaker. A ****1/2 match.
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. The Rock- THE BEST MATCH THESE TWO HAVE EVER HAD!!!!! This was purely amazing, the best match of the night. This match never slowed down, it wasn't to hardcore, or pure plain wrestling, and the best part is...no one had to carry their opponent to a hell of a match. A well deserved ****3/4 (It was sooo close to getting 5, if Vince hadn't shown up it would have been).
Movie Review: The best I've ever seen
Summary: 5 Stars
I've seen four WWE pay-per-views to date, and this is by far the best. Match 1: Jericho vs. Regal (IC title) - This is by no means a bad match, and it's a very good opener
Match 2: APA & Tazz against RTC.- Nothing really exciting, but it ended before I got bored
Match 3: Raven vs. Big Show vs. Kane (Hardcore title) - By far the best hardcore match I've seen since 2000
Match 4: Test vs. Eddie Guerrero (European title) - A fairly good exchange between the two, but not much to get you on your feet
Match 5: Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit- Being a huge Angle fan, I loved this match. Both competitors showed off their amateur skills for a while, and then they got in to some WWF style fighting. As always, they bring out the best in each other.
Match 6: Ivory vs. Chyna (women's title) - Without a doubt the worst match of the night. I found no redeemable qualities of this match.
Match 7: Shane McMahon vs. Mr. McMahon- This wasn't as much of a match as it was a brawl, but never the less it was some good action that told the story well. On a side note, it was wierd how they both used the same music.
Match 8: Dudley Boyz vs. Edge & Christian vs. Hardy Boyz T.L.C. II) - No question as to whether this is the best match of the night. Nothing shows desire like crashing through tables from 20 feet up.
Second Disc (DVD version):
Match 9: Gimmick Battle Royal- As a fan since 2000, I hadn't known any of these guys, and it really was funny to think that these guys actually wrestled at one point. The action is slow at best, and its humor dies fast
Match 10:Triple H vs. Undertaker- Another great match. With the ref out for about half an hour(WTF) this turned into a street fight.
Match 11:The Rock vs. Austin ( WWF title) - Not a bad match, but it wasn't what I thought it'd be. It is worth it's weight in gold for it's shock value, though.This is truly the WWF at its best.
This is one DVD that never fails to impress.
DVD Extras- There aren't as many as you'd think. Most of what is on as "extras" are in fact part of the show. The only real extas are the match from heat , the highlights video, and the next night on raw.
Movie Review: Great wrestlemania
Summary: 5 Stars
45-50 Horrible PPV
50-69 Bad PPV
69-78 Decent PPV
78-85 Good PPV
85-92 Great PPV
92-100 EXCELLENT PPV
Chris Jericho vs William Regal IC title- Good average opener. Jericho carries this one. Regal is not that good of a performer. Jericho wins. Match Rating 7
APA & Tazz vs RTC- Short match. I thought it got just the right amount of time. This match didn't need to much time to be good. It was an ok match but the crowd seem to like it. APA & Tazz win. Match Rating 6
WWE Hardcore Championship Raven vs Kane vs Big show- Good Hardcore match. They go about everywhere but, outside. Raven gets thrown through glass which was great. Kane wins. Match Rating 8
WWE European Championship Eddie Guerreo vs Test- Good but, some people hate this match. Test dominating most of this match.Eddie gets some help from the Radicalz to win. Match Rating 7
Kurt Angle vs Chris Benoit- Good technical wrestling. Not as good as Royal Rumble 03 but, still good. Benoit makes angle tap when the ref is down but then Angle got the tights for the win. Match Rating 9
Womens Championship Ivory vs Chyna- Chyna dominating and winning. Nothin good. Match Rating 3
Street Fight Shane O'Mac vs Vince Mcmahon- Great street fight. Shane is one of the best wrestlers in Street Fight rules. Shane does a nice spot with the trash can and he always hits the elbow drop through the table. Shane wins.
Tag Titles E&C vs Dudleys vs Hardyz TLC II- Great better than first. Noting much to say about but it was awesome. Match Rating 10
Gimmick Battle Royal won by Iron Sheik- Boring but nice to see the legends back. Match Rating 2
HHH vs Undertaker- Great Match. Best match for Taker till he meet Orton at WM21. Still great match. Nice chokeslam off that balcony onto the floor. Taker goes 9-0. Match Rating 9.5
Austin vs Rock WWE Championship - Awesome main event. These two always put on a great show. All I have to say is that Austin Sold his soul to Vince to Win the championship. Match Rating 10
Wrestlemania 17 gets a 93 which means it is an EXCELLENT PPV. If you can find it buy it.
Movie Review: Still The Greatest
Summary: 5 Stars
This is the all time greatest PPV ever made. The story lines were well made and the matches were amazing. It was the last of its kind. The last of the greatest era in wwf or wwe history.Matches:
1. Intercontinental Championship: Chris Jericho vs. Willam Regal
Jericho saves the match because lets face it Regal is a show killer. Good match not the best but great ending. ***
2. 6 man tag: APA & Tazz vs. Right To Censor
Short and sweet. Tazz gets his butt kicked in this one but it has another great ending. ***
3. Triple threat Hardcore Title: Raven vs. Kane vs. Big Show
Amazing Hardcore title match. Gets the show started. Most of the match is back stage so you can't really hear the crowd. People go through glass, walls and off the stage in this one. *****
4. European Title: Test vs. Eddie Guerrero
More of a Raw or Smackdown match but is worth the watch. ***
5. Single match: Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit
Amazing technical wrestling in this one. Slow start but serves its purpose. Almost a perfect match lasting the right amount of time. *****
6. Womens Title: Chyna vs. Ivory
Lasted about 1 minute. Very short which is nice. **
7. Gimick Battle Royal:
Alot of old wrestlers in this one. Fast match the entrances lasted longer than the match. Funny to listen to the special guest anouncers talk. **
8. Street Fight: Shane McMahon vs. Vince McMahon /Mick Foley= Ref
Awsome street fight. Great father vs. son match With amazing spots and a great story line. Shane flies in this one. *****
9. T.L.C. Tag titles: Dudleys vs. Hardeys vs. Edge & Christian
Just as good as the first if not better. Spike, Lita, Rhyno get involved in this one. Great ladder and tabble action. *****
10. Single match: Triple H vs. Undertaker
One of the greatest matches of all time best match on the PPV. Ref is out cold most of the match so there is sledge hammers, steel chairs and 15 foot high choke slams in this one. *****
11. No DQ WWF Championship: Rock vs. Austin
2nd best match Stole the show with a screw job ending. The no DQ makes it even better with ring bells and steel chairs.*****
All in all an amzing PPV Over all *****
