CENA WON Holy shit....Now does this mean Batista will lose
Got a feeling now that could be the case

[Azriel]

I don't like Cena's new theme

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Looks like Big Dave is going down :(

[KayfabeMan]

Now Cena will debut HIS new WWE Championship Belt, complete with hydraulics, and neon lighting on the underside. :nono:

[Fabien Barthez]

Because Cena won, doesn't mean Dave will lose. HHH running the show means Dave will lose.

[Azriel]

I still think Batista's going to win

[Fabien Barthez]

Now Cena will debut HIS new WWE Championship Belt, complete with hydraulics, and neon lighting on the underside. :nono:

LMAO!

[KayfabeMan]

Looks like Big Dave is going down :(

Wait until Wadding reads this thread :shifty:

[Loose Cannon]

BYE BYE JBL :wave: :wave: :wave:

Not gonna comment on Taker :nono:

Orton's out for a while though, so it made sense I guess.

[PullMyFinger]

WHAT A SHITTY MATCH THAT WAS! Holy shit!

[Loose Cannon]

If Batista loses this match, I leave TPWW forever

[Azriel]

Giving the divas something to do.

[PullMyFinger]

Now Cena will debut HIS new WWE Championship Belt, complete with hydraulics, and neon lighting on the underside. :nono:
lmao

[McLegend]

If Batista loses this match, I leave TPWW forever
LOL no you won't

[Azriel]

If Batista loses this match, I leave TPWW forever
No you won't :lol:

[Pegasus Crawford]

If Batista loses this match, I leave TPWW forever

Many would be sad. :'(

[PullMyFinger]

I'd bang his daughter if I knew her.

[Mayo]

If Batista loses this match, I leave TPWW foreverLet's go Hunter!!! :D

Nah Batista is going to win, and for anyone that says it doesn't make sense for both champs to lose is retarded. Cena and Batista both still won the title at Wrestlemania so it doesn't really cheapen Cena's victory.

[Loose Cannon]

I know I won't because Batista will win. I guranteed it 4 months ago and I still guarantee it. They won't make the fans go home pissed off unless they are fucking idiots.

[KayfabeMan]

So they will make the fans go home pissed off.

[Kane Knight]

I don't like Cena's new theme

[Azriel]

I think Batista will hold the title longer than Cena

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I dunno Vince IS a moron. We will see I guess.

[Kane Knight]

Now Cena will debut HIS new WWE Championship Belt, complete with hydraulics, and neon lighting on the underside. :nono:
Jesus Christ, why not just tattoo faggot on his forehead? :lol:

[Kane Knight]

BYE BYE JBL :wave: :wave: :wave:

Not gonna comment on Taker :nono:

Orton's out for a while though, so it made sense I guess. Comment on Taker!

[Kane Knight]

So they will make the fans go home pissed off.
Makes perfect sense. Nothing says "Good PPV" Like "Big letdown main event."

[Azriel]

well, course LC would be upset since he's the no. 1 Orton mark in TPWW

[Heyman]

In all seriousness, I wonder what will happen to HHH after Mania (regardless of whether he wins or loses tonight).


Are the WWE even retarded enough to put the title back on HHH a few months from now?

[Fabien Barthez]

Ive posted over 50 times in the thread!

Kane Knight, you have been the man tonight, made watching this much more fun.:kiss:

[Azriel]

Well, maybe Flair will finally turn on Hunter and we may have a HHH/Flair feud

[Fabien Barthez]

Motorhead BAYBAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Kane Knight]

I thought Triple H's theme couldn't get worse.

[Pegasus Crawford]

Here's Motorhead playing Triple H's intro.... how many WrestleMania's have they done so already?

[Fabien Barthez]

Lemmy doesn't even know the words!!!

[PullMyFinger]

this performance is bloody awful!

[Fabien Barthez]

HHH coming up into centre stage was fuckin' awesome though.

[Kane Knight]

You're turning me on.

[The Answer]

He sounds like a drunk. Motorhead :rofl: . The singer didn't show up sober .

BTW

Praise the Lord we have a new Champ

[Kane Knight]

t.Lemmy doesn't even know the words!!!

[Azriel]

This performance sucks

[Kane Knight]

this performance is bloody awful! No shit...

[KayfabeMan]

Makes perfect sense. Nothing says "WWE PPV" Like "Big letdown main event."

[Kane Knight]

Lemmy doesn't even know the words!!!
I think he's too coked up to get it, less that he doesn't KNOW them.

[PullMyFinger]

HHH coming up into centre stage was fuckin' awesome though.
Still doesn't excuse the bloody awful performance!

[Kane Knight]

Still doesn't excuse the bloody awful performance!
:y:

[Fabien Barthez]

Probot>Motorhead.

Just realised where HHH got the idea for that dreadful facial hair he sports these days.

[Kane Knight]

I wonder if Batista will get new music
I hope so. The Kane ripoff theme is boring.

[Azriel]

I like Batista's music

[Kane Knight]

Probot>Motorhead.

Just realised where HHH got the idea for that dreadful facial hair he sports these days.
Wow. Welcome to 3 months ago...:|

[Pegasus Crawford]

Not tonight. :|

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, I suppose I ought to post at least once in this thread.

Also, remind me to ask AAA how long Ferret is banned for. ;)

[Fabien Barthez]

Fuck you Kane Knight, you SUUUUCCCKKKK!!!!! :foc:

BTW Kayfabe, did you rep me for laughing at your joke? :love:

[Fabien Barthez]

Yeah, I suppose I ought to post at least once in this thread.

Also, remind me to ask AAA how long Ferret is banned for. ;)

Seriously? He got banned?

[Kane Knight]

I do suck.

[McDoogle]

Yeah, I suppose I ought to post at least once in this thread.

Also, remind me to ask AAA how long Ferret is banned for. ;)

no FUCKING way.

[Kane Knight]

Seriously? He got banned?
YAY!

[Kane Knight]

I finally put the fucker on ignore and he gets banned. :(

[Fabien Barthez]

Just thought, fancy having a Hollywood themed Wrestlemania and not have The Rock make a cameo (NPI)

[PullMyFinger]

Now that Batista is on the ropes...Triple H should do a 619 :lol:

[Kane Knight]

Triple H looks like he's gonna barf.

[ford fairlane]

great line from the king

thats a scary sight to look up at

especially when your laying flat on your back :)

[PullMyFinger]

*hopes that Monty Brown comes in and puts the POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUNCE right on HHH*

[Fabien Barthez]

I bet he does, and then they shake hands and close the show in the same way as last year.

It's been pretty good to be fair. HBK/Angle was a good WRESTLING match, The 6 man was a sick spot match, all the fillers like Hogan and Piper's pit were predictable but fitting really.

Not bad at all.

[UmbrellaCorporation]

I'll be happy with this HHH/Batista match no matter how it turns out.


Orton Vs. Taker...I -really- wanted Orton to win. I just wonder if he lost because of his brown bag special.


Glad to see Edge win the Money in the bank match. Wanted it to be Jericho, Christian, or Edge, so I'm content with that.

Cena as champ = :foc:

Angle over HBK = :love:


But actually, this hasn't been a bad Mania.

[Kane Knight]

great line from the king

thats a scary sight to look up at

:lol:

[Kane Knight]

*hopes that Monty Brown comes in and puts the POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUNCE right on HHH*
:love: :D

[Azriel]

Yeah, not a bad Mania at all.

[Fabien Barthez]

I think the whole show has been well timed as well, the main events not goingfor like 30 minutes with HHH just bleeding on the mat for 15 of them.

The Main events are always an anti-climax as far as the match itself goes, the finish is all I want to see usually.

[Azriel]

So much for the Flair turn.

[Mr. JL]

Wrestle Mania 21 for me ended with Kurt Angle making Shawn Michaels tap out in an ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE MATCH... then the feed cut out because there is a major storm in Ontario, especially where I live. I'm not pissed at all though. That match was fucking amazing. Satelite company said I don't get charged for the event. And I don't have to see BIg Show V. Akebono, or any of the 4 men I dislike watching in the title bouts. I think it was for the best.

[Azriel]

HHH wearing the crimson mask

[Pegasus Crawford]

Batista's beating Triple H to a bloddy pulp :heart: :love: :heart:

[Fabien Barthez]

Ah, it looks like HHH found Shawn Michaels razorblade then.

[PullMyFinger]

Why the fuck is it turning black and white when they show a bloodied HHH?

[The Answer]

Even though the match sucked Wrestlemania was saved for me with the John Cena win over JBl hopefully that ends JBL main eventing.

[Azriel]

HBK/Angle was definitely the match of the night. I tell you, thats three straight Manias where HBK was involved in MOTY candidates

[Kane Knight]

Holy shit @ HHH stealing HBK's Crimson Mask.

[Azriel]

Not so fast HHH

[PullMyFinger]

Trips is goign to win, I know it...

[Fabien Barthez]

I would have pissed myself if HHH would have won with that belt shot.

[Azriel]

Come on Batista

[Heyman]

Even though the match sucked Wrestlemania was saved for me with the John Cena win over JBl hopefully that ends JBL main eventing.


JBL has a tremendous gimmick, and I genuinely do have newfound respect for the man (well....not the "man".....but the "character"). JBL is solid on the mic, and his character really grew on me.


I think JBL would make a very decent US or Tag team champ (with OJ).

[Pegasus Crawford]

Thumbs down, Batista Bomb....

NEW CHAMP NEW CHAMP NEW CHAMP

[PullMyFinger]

Chicken wings yay!

[Fabien Barthez]

The Ultimate Warrior wins!!!!!

[Azriel]

THUMBS DOWN :n:

BAH GAWD!! NEW CHAMP! NEW CHAMP!

[Heyman]

Trips is goign to win, I know it...



The WWE can't possibly be that stupid.................I think? :?:

[The Answer]

No surprise here the animal is on top of the buisness

[Loose Cannon]

GUARAN FUCKING TEE

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

CENA AND BATISTA. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Loose Cannon]

MARKS OUT MARKS OUT FOR THE NEW BLOOD

[Pegasus Crawford]

Wow, they really made use of the time they were given for WrestleMania this year.

[Azriel]

Heres to the first RAW of the new season.

[PullMyFinger]

This year's WM was one of the best in a while...

On top of that, the whole Hollywood theme and set was the best one ever.

[Loose Cannon]

Where's that thread where people were denying me and CyNick that Cena and Batista would win. WHAT

[Loose Cannon]

Hogan and Hussan too :cool:

[Azriel]

Really great Wrestlemania.

[Heyman]

Waaaaaa! HHH held Batista down!!! Waaaaaa!


HHH is bad for business!!! Waaaaaa!!!



SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!




So - marks the day of a new era for wrestling. Let's hope that Batista is here to stay. :cool:

[Loose Cannon]

Cena vs Orton: Mania 22

[Rain Man]

A- Wrestlemania

[Fabien Barthez]

I don't know what year they did it, but after Mania, they had an extra half an hour show of interviews with some of the wrestlers of the night, they shoulddo that.

[Heyman]

Cena vs. Batista = main-event for Wrestlemania 22

[PullMyFinger]

Not to bring on a sour note, but I highly doubt HHH is out of the title scene. He will still run Raw and dominate it.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Fuckin' awesome Mania.</font>

[MVP]

AWESOME MATCHES :y:

Here's to a new year of successful title reigns.

*crosses fingers

[Kane Knight]

Not to bring on a sour note, but I highly doubt HHH is out of the title scene. He will still run Raw and dominate it.
DUH. :roll:

[Ruien]

Only thing I dind't like was Edge winning the aldder match.

[PullMyFinger]

No....you see, you people have to learn to give up hope like me. I thought the same with Benoit, but that was a flop.

[KingofOldSchool]

Where's that thread where people were denying me and CyNick that Cena and Batista would win. WHAT

Anyone with half of a brain knew they were going to win it.

[Fabien Barthez]

Ruien, you are seriously hated!

Mr Harvey, I see you online. What did you think sir?

[GODSON]

WM was great but forgettable. This ppv reminds me of WM 19 so much. Great matches but not going to hold up overtime.

Angle vs.HBK is the second best match of the year behind Ultimate X(Sabin vs.Styles vs.Williams).

[James Steele]

:lol:

TNA Fanboy

:rofl:

[Loose Cannon]

LOL Ultimate X. About 400 people saw that match. Gonna be hard to argue that.

[M. Banana]

BWAGHAH!! YOU WERE ALL WRONG BITCHES.

:y:

[Marc the Smark]

Wrestle. Fuckin. Mania. :y: :y: :y: :y: :y: :y:

[Deceit]

Waaaaaa! HHH held Batista down!!! Waaaaaa!


HHH is bad for business!!! Waaaaaa!!!



SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!!!!!




So - marks the day of a new era for wrestling. Let's hope that Batista is here to stay. :cool:

that about sums up all of my feelings regarding this years WM.

[James Steele]

Hell, even Supermarket Sweep's host laughs at TNA. Look at my avatar. He is laughing at TNA right now.

[Loose Cannon]

Trade Cena for HHH PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

[Loose Cannon]

Hope they do Hogan/Hussan at Summerslam and not one of these bullshit PPV's.

[Azriel]

I don't think they'll do Hussan/Hogan. That was probably a one night deal

[KingofOldSchool]

Shelton Benjamin won MVP tonight.

[PullMyFinger]

Oh please don't make me puke. Shelton did some great moves tonight, but MVP? Are you fucking kidding?

[Loose Cannon]

Nah, Hogan doesn't appear on Wrestlemania unless he's got a future leg drop 1...2...3 coming.

Yea, didn't see, but Benjamin is that "sleeper" guy right now. I said he'll explode in 2005 and I think he's going to be up there by the end of the year.

[Kane Knight]

Hell, even Supermarket Sweep's host laughs at TNA. Look at my avatar. He is laughing at TNA right now.
I thought it was Durwood from Bewitched.

[Kane Knight]

Shelton Benjamin won MVP tonight.
Shelton was on fucking fire tonight.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS. WHAT!?!?OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG
Did Cena win the belt?

[PullMyFinger]

Two things...

Even though the Cena/JBL match was HORRIBLE, did anyone notice the JBL chants? :lol:

I want to see Cena turn heel like the Rock!

There should be a new NOD type faction:
Hussan, a heel Benjamin, Diavari, Orlando Jordon, throw in a latino wrestler, and find another minority.

That'll be in full swing!

[Blue Demon]

TWO title changes...I figured if Cena won HHH would too...glad to be proven wrong :D

[Loose Cannon]

LOL AT MARKOUTS. YESSSSS

[#1-norm-fan]

Did Cena win the belt?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PullMyFinger]

WRESTLEMANIA WAS FUCKING AMAZING
better believe it!

[PullMyFinger]

Cena: Pimp My Belt!

[Gouda]

- Eddie and Rey was a good match. Rey reminded me of Super Dave when he came out so... uhh.. I guess that the "superhero" he was this year. His mask was awful with no back though.

- Money in the Bank ladder match was a letdown. I thought it could have been much better. Not that it was bad. Benjamin was the man. Also I was marking out like crazy when Christian was up there. The way the match was booked I was rooting for Benjy of Christian to win.

- Angle/HBK was awesome. Angle was actually getting a lot of cheers. Match of the night.

- WAS that Akebono's wee wee hanging out? *shudder*

- Piper was awesome. How he played off those "what"s. Had me laughing.

- :foc: Cena. They just made a complete and utter joke of JBL's title reign by having Cena basically squash him. Where was the back and forth action? Where was interference by The Cabinet? This match angered me to no degrees. And Cena's new music sucks.

- Batista won. Meh. Whatever.

- Most importantly... there wasn't a backstage segment with Snitksy and Heidenreich! I want my money back!!

[KingofOldSchool]

I'm glad Taker won.

[KingofOldSchool]

Akebono had an Akebonner. [/bad joke]

[Kane Knight]

Cena: Pimp My Belt!
I eagerly await the "Smoking Pipe" title when he comes out on Thursday.

[Splaya]

I went to go see the show at Buffalo Wild Wings. As usual when I go to shit like this, I write a report about it. That will be up later.

Put it this way, I have no voice.

Piper was drunk off his ass!

I figured they'd have a mask spot with Rey.

I want more Snitsky/Heidenrape! They're such a perfect couple.

[Kane Knight]

- Most importantly... there wasn't a backstage segment with Snitksy and Heidenreich! I want my money back!!
There was. You just didn't see the supply closet door shaking.

[RGWhat316]

I'm looking forward to it. Getting my last minute updates before I go to my friend's house. Big screen tv almost as big as the living room. Gonna be a little crowded since there will probably be 8-10 people there. But should be well worth it. My picks:
World - Batista
WWE - Cena
Womens - Taking Trish, cus I'm thinking Lita is costing Christy the match.
Orton/Taker - Going with Taker, the streak will continue
Eddie/Rey - Eddie, but with one of the two turning heel
Piper's Pit - Piper will get at least one stunner
Show/Akebono - Show, a non-WWE star winning is not gonna happen
Money in the Bank - Going with Jericho
And the one I'm looking forward to most, HBK v Angle - Even though I'm a big fan of both, I'm going with Kurt.

Just getting back after Mania, and it was pretty damn good. Looks like I got 6/9 right. Maybe an asterick on the Women's cus Lita didn't interfere that much. I almost didn't think both titles were gonna change, but it was time. I was a little unsure that HHH would job in the main event two years in a row, but he did. And glad to see Cena win as well. I also won $5 on the Pipers Pit because I bet a friend the Piper would get stunned, and he said no way. So we put a little wager on it, and I won. :D

I got Eddie/Rey wrong, and no heel turn. Show/Akebono was just a "get this thing over with ASAP" kind of deal. And maybe I should have suspected that Show wouldn't have won since this was Akebono's specialty. And I did think Y2J had a good chance in the ladder match. But Shelton impressed me with doing most of the big spots.

But Angle/HBk was definitely the match of the night for me. A great back and forth match. The crowd was even split on who to cheer for. Great WM this year, it was the first one I had seen live since X-7. And even though X-7 was better, it still ranks up in the top 5 in my eyes.

[Splaya]

Quic question. Who won the battle royal match?

[John la Rock]

Well JLR just came back from Famous Players - AWESOME MANIA 9/10

Eddie vs Rey - great opener but a little short. ****

Money in the Bank - fucking great. Shelton was by far the star in this match ****

MARKS THE FUCK OUT FOR HOGAN :love:

Taker vs Orton - Amazing match tied for 2nd best match of the night ****

Trish vs Christy - yawn next

ANGLE VS HBK - MATCH OF THE YEAR and one of the top 3 Wrestlemania matches ever. Marks out for Angle winning. The last 10 minutes or so had me on the edge of my seat *****

Piper's Pit = AMAZING. Never really watched Piper but he is GOD on the mic. Played the WHAT chants better than any one else. Also Marked out for the Stunner

Sumo - garbage next

WWE title - ok match glad Cena won. ***

World Title - GREAT MATCH IMO. tied with Orton/Taker for 2nd best of the night. HHH made Batista look like a million bucks. Great match and ending to Wrestlemania ****

Overall a great show. There was this annoying fuck sitting behind me who kept shouting and making retarded comments all night. Trying way too hard.

[Fabien Barthez]

Quick answer- No-one cares!

[Drakul]

Hell, even Supermarket Sweep's host laughs at TNA. Look at my avatar. He is laughing at TNA right now.
Dale Winton? :shifty:
http://www.dreadnought.org.uk/mediac/400_0/media/DIR_18240/DIR_29840/dalewinton.jpg

Also. WM was pretty good,I thought. :y: I prefered last years though.

[Gone Mad]

Sounds like a great WM. I planned to go out and watch it but no freakin' place nearby played it or was already full.

Either way, me and my friends played WM and made our own WM.

I can't wait to see Raw now just to see what HHH is gonna do.

[PullMyFinger]

I eagerly await the "Smoking Pipe" title when he comes out on Thursday.
You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Kane Knight again.

[John la Rock]

Also 3 stars of the night

1. HBK (another amazing performance even in a losing effort trully is the Showstopper best spot of the night, spring board corkscrew onto angle on the table)
2. Shelton (great suicide dive and T-Bone off the ladder)
3. Angle (amazing his best WM match, even better than Benoit at X-Seven)

[V]

john, were you at scarborough town centre? that's where i watched.. my goddam cousin was slow as hell so i had my neck up on horrible seats the whole time lol.. got used to it though

biggest mark out moment was easily taker winning cuz i thought orton was gonna win

Cena and Batista winning was awesome

my man Cena is finally champ :D:D:D

Screaming at HBK to tap was fun... That money in the bank match turned out to be one of the most entertaining, i thought it would be a pointless mass of midcarders in the ring

Christy needs to be sent to ovw permanently if she ever thinks of wrestling a match again... and Big Show should be sent to the sumo equivalent, those 2 matches were a snorefest.. other than that.. friggin awesome mania

[V]

also ROFL @ Roddy playing off the "What" Chants

"now try to keep up with me" :lol:

and Austin :love: :love: :love: :love: i hope he's back in raw, doubt it though :(

Booker T was victorious in the much talked about 30 man Battle Royal. The final three included him, Chris Masters and Viscera. RAW superstars wore red shirts, while SmackDown! talent wore blue ones.

After WrestleMania ended, Batista hugged someone in the front row and bowed to fans on each side of the ring.

The crowd was very vocal until the John Cenal/JBL WWE Title match. However, they were hyped up for the RAW main-event at the end of the night.

[PullMyFinger]

Austin's stunner on Piper was very sloppy though...

[PullMyFinger]

Big Show's match was a snooze.

[Corkscrewed]

Man, I'm bummed I couldn't watch. But it sounded like an awesome show! And I had a FANTASTIC Tipsters Round. :)

But tomorrow night, HHH is going to spend about 45 minutes bitching about his loss.

...after his 15 minute entrance where in he glides to the ring... standing on a cart pulled by a donkey being taunted by Ric Flair...

[SammyG]

Oh, also: Submitted by Ben Johnson on Sunday, April 3, 2005 at 11:02 PM EST
As broken earlier on the newsline, WWE and USA are expected to announce the finalization of a new cable deal that would see WWE's programming shift from Spike TV to the USA Network this September. The announcement could come as early as Monday.

[SammyG]

The planned main-event for Backlash has now been confirmed as Batista vs. HHH. However, that doesn't give away what could go down at tonight's PPV.

lordsofpain.net

[RGWhat316]

Piper was awesome during his Pipers Pit. And I almost forgot to mention, EUGENE!!!!!! He looked alright but you could tell he was still injured. He even took a couple bumps.

[PullMyFinger]

Never one to be one upped by taker.

[SammyG]

Yeah it fucking sucks, if HHH wins the belt there, there will be a god damn riot

[John la Rock]

ya HHH needs to stay the fuck away from that title now at least 5 years or move to Smackdown or something. I wouldn't mind him fight someone in a main-event non-title feud helping out guys like Shelton or Edge

[John la Rock]

I go to school in Waterloo so I watched it at the local Galaxy. coming back to T-dot for the summer

[SammyG]

Kane Knight, soryr if i pissed u off somehow, all those neg reps really dropped my points down, im just another wrestling smark lol, loved wrestlemania today

[BCWWF]

Who did HHH lose to?

I take it that UT is still undefeated? (The Legend Killer is from St. Louis)

What else is new?

[Pegasus Crawford]

I just thought of something.

If Austin stunned Piper, does that mean Austin killed a legend?

[SammyG]

Austin is already a legend in my opinion, so its not that big of a deal.
HHH lost to Batista

[Fox]

sounds like I missed a hell of a show. oh well. already ordered the DVD on bestbuy.

[Deceit]

fucking great wrestlemania :y:

[I-Hate-You]

So, did Lemmy forget the lyrics to Triple H's theme this year?

[Hired Hitman]

I loved it when Batista raised his arms, gave a thumbs up, then most people int he crowd did the same thing, and when Batista turned his thubs up to a thumbs down so did everyone else, I can see that becoming an alright "I'm finishing the match now" taunt.

[RemyRed]

HBK/Kurt Angle was by far a big let down. That whole homo-erotic posing they did at the apron was fuckin retarded.

Christy Hemme and Trish Stratus :drool: completely carried that PPV. T&A is fuckin awesome.

The Money In The Bank Match was great, alla those crazy spots people took. Great match! :y:

I love the fact that Cena is now the new icon of SmackDown!. It's kind of sad seeing JBL lose the belt but I'm still glad for Cena, I hope he makes himself a new custom title! :D

Triple H and Batista was a snorefest. Boring action by the two.

HULKAMANIA WILL LIVE FOREVER. **MARK OUT** For him beating the shit out of Hassan! Also the Piper's Pit segment was brilliant!

[SuperSlim]

dang sounds like som egood stuff this year. Can't wait til it comes out on DVD

[NoJabbaNoBogRoll]

I just picked up 140 tipsters points. :cool:

The only match I didn't get perfect was the sumo.




Oh yeah, it was a great PPV...

But I know you're all more hyped for HitlerMania I. ;)

[SuperSlim]

can't wait for HItlerMania ! :D

[Splaya]

Oh man it's the morning after and my throat is killing me

[Sadistic]

Eddy VS Ray: 7/10
This match wasn't too bad and i didn't really expect anything amazing from it. A good opener.

Ladder Match: 7.5/10
To be honest i expected more from this. There were some good spots but i felt they could have done more moves with the ladders. A good match.

Hogan's Return: 8/10
One of my favourite moments of the night.The crowd were really into it. Great stuff.

Orton VS Taker: 7.5/10
This match was good. It got kind of predictable but not a bad match.

Womens Match: 5/10
The usual boring womens match. Nothing special here.

Angle VS HBK: 9.5/10
Amazing match, the best by far. Probably the only match of the night that felt like a wrestlemania match. This had great high-flying spots by both men. Superb.

Piper's Pit: 5/10
Yes it was good to see Austin but this dragged on a little too long i think. It was entertaining.

Sumo Match: 1/10
I paid to see WRESTLING not a fucking sumo match. This was so stupid and boring. I was waiting for big show to go crazy and chokeslam him through the ring but it didn't happen.

Cena VS JBL: 5.5/10
This was smackdown's main event for wrestlemania? A big dissapointment. These man have had much better matches on smackdown. Nothing special about the match, no good spots and it was very short.

HHH vs Batista: 7.5/10
Very poor for a wrestlemania main event. I expected so much more. It was a good match but i felt the ending was too sudden. Batista did his finisher and that was it. In the HBK match there were loads of kick outs and the ending was great, but not here.


OVERALL SCORE: 63.5/100
= 6.35/10
= 3 STARS

[SuperSlim]

so did Christy walk out with the women's title or is Trish still the champ?

[Loose Cannon]

why don't you go to the front page and read the results

[Disturbed316]

Right, woke up at 9:50 and got myself ready to watch this, I was so pumped up and it was one of the best ppv's they have put on for quite some time.

Hogan's appearance had me marking out like crazy. Everyone was expecting Austin to come down, it was all over the internet, the crowd were even getting in the "What" chants. Then when Eugene got attacked, the "Austin" chants started, so I was kinda like come on out Austin, but I was completly unprepared for Hogan to come out. I was watching it and was like: "Come on Austin, come down.....OH MY FUCKING GOD! lksguosagahgipahgahaou HOGAN!!!!"

Taker vs Orton was the only match in which I wanted someone to win, the other I didn't really mind who won. LOL at Bob Orton and his cast, the RKO was pretty decent, as soon as Orton made the piledriver motion I knew he was going to lose, I'm glad Taker won though.

The ladder match was better than I thought, Shelton really impressed me, didn't like Edge winning it though. He really doesn't seem like main event material to me :-\

Angle and HBK was amazing, I started out not really gunning for either one, but much like the crowd, by the end I was 100% behind Kurt. When Kurt got the Angle slam off the top and Michaels kicked out, I let out a really loud "Oh come on!" My mum then walked in and wanted to know what the problem was.

Piper's Pit was funny, poor Carlito though :'(

The title matches seemed to be the weaker matches of the night IMO. So much build up and they seemed to last 10-15 minutes at most. Glad Cena and Batista won.

So yeah :y: Great show.

[Loose Cannon]

OK, After reading the results. Here's my thoughts on everything.

Rey/Eddie. They usually have a good heel turn at Mania and I thought this was it. So it didn't happen and Rey wins again. Well this definately sets up a turn for Eddie now.

Ladder match: Yea, I knew Edge would win. It was one of the two heels and Edge is more up the ladder, no pun intended, then Xtian is. So judging by Edge's character the last few months, you would think he would want a shot a the Title right away. Hope it's on a PPV and not on a Raw to get HHH out of the main event for a little.

Hogan/Hussan: Nice

Orton/Taker. K, I'll comment on this now. Well, they did the right thing. Yes, you heard me right. Orton is suppossed to be gone for like 4-6 months, so it made no sense to have him win if he ain't gonna be on TV for a while. Now what they should do when he comes back is play off the fact that he WAS INJURED and wasn't at 100% and that's why he lost. Asks for a rematch at Survivor Series or something and gets the win.


Women's match: WHAT


Angle/HBK: Tough to call who I wanted to win. Liked both guys here and it really didn't matter who won or lost because both are still in the same position anyway.

The Pit: Heard Roddy got a Stunner :(

Sumo Match: LOL. That jackoff won just to give the Japanese media/fans something to smile about. It was a Business move if nothing else.

Cena/JBL: Don't worry you JBL marks, JBL will get his Title back. Cena deserved it. He's like the #1 guy in the company and you put the belt on the #1 guy at the biggest stage of them all. Simple booking. Heard people complaining Cena dominated JBL. Would of booked it the same way. Cena comes off as strong as ever now. NOW TRADE CENA TO RAW SHITHEADS

HHH/Batista: Best Buildup since Austin/Rock. Great storyline and a great ending to the story. Booking the way it's suppossed to be done. Hope he gets a new heel opponent though.

[Shadow]

To tell you guys the truth....Cena really didn't dominate the match. It was more JBL than anything else till the final 2 minutes or so.

[Kane Knight]

HBK/Kurt Angle was by far a big let down. That whole homo-erotic posing they did at the apron was fuckin retarded.

Christy Hemme and Trish Stratus :drool: completely carried that PPV. T&A is fuckin awesome. :wtf:

[Kane Knight]

So, did Lemmy forget the lyrics to Triple H's theme this year?
Does a one legged duck swim in a circle?

[Kane Knight]

so did Christy walk out with the women's title or is Trish still the champ?
I was too busy peeing.

[Kane Knight]

why don't you go to the front page and read the results TPWW does that?

[Loose Cannon]

LOL. JUST LOL. Why didn't you just order some Porn and some Backyard Wrestling Part 13

[Loose Cannon]

actually, there's probably one that combines the two, right?

[mitch_h]

HBK and Angle gave everyone their money's worth, just a fantastic match. Anyone else think Eddie looked a little off though? Just didn't seem on his game

[TerranRich]

NOW TRADE CENA TO RAW SHITHEADS

I don't understand. How can you trade the WWE Champion? Do you want to leave SmackDown! without a champion at all, and have RAW have two main titles? Or do you mean after he jobs to JBL in the future?

[RGWhat316]

I don't know why some have complained that Cena dominated that match. Even though I like JBL, I can't give him the credit. Almost all of his ppv matches, he is the one that gets dominated. Only this time, he lost his title. This also might set up a face turn in the cabinet. JBL can say that they weren't there for him and quit, or just fire the members.

And Motorhead definitely seemed off. They performed the same song at X-7, and Lemmy sounded nothing like he did then. Even though I know the lyrics, you couldn't understand what the hell Lemmy was saying. He was pulling an Ozzy or Sylvester Stallone last night.

[Shadow]

HBK and Angle gave everyone their money's worth, just a fantastic match. Anyone else think Eddie looked a little off though? Just didn't seem on his game

The problem probably was the fact that Rey's mask kept slipping. Why they had him out with that dumb ass half mask....we'll never know.

[Disturbed316]

What exactly was Rey's costume ment to be this year? I really couldn't see what it was ment to be. Also, if Triple H held down Rey's enterance :nono:

[Kane Knight]

The problem probably was the fact that Rey's mask kept slipping. Why they had him out with that dumb ass half mask....we'll never know.
That was some retarded shit there.

[jnb3599]

I guess I am in the minority that I was let down by WM21. I wouldn't say it was awful but it just seemed like the performers made it feel like a wrestlemania as opposed to say a backlash. A lot of potential that I think the WWE missed a chance on and let slip away. Should I be surprised?

Eddie/Rey.... decent match but they have had better. Eddie seemed a bit slow or maybe not into it? main eventing WM a year ago to first match on the card may have gotten to him. Rey's mask problem kind of set the tone for the night in my opinion that none of the guys (excpet benoit, benjamin, michaels, & angle) were prepared or had things ready. Eddie turning heel would have made this match more enjoyable to me. not bad, but both have had better.


ladder match.... Shelton Benjamin ..WOW! the t bone, the ladder clothesline were 2 tremendous spots! Benoit amazes me, and he should amaze WWE bookers! from main eventing last year to 2nd match of WM this year, and he still goes balls out without even being in the title picture! do something with benoit!! bring back the horsemen or something to give Benoit the spotlight again! edge's win made the only sense they could with this match, once he won you knew batista had his match locked up. good match, I just still think Kane should not have been in it.

hogan/hussan.... i saw someone said earlier the net was saying austin was gonna be making the save, I read it was gonna be hogan, completely saw this coming. nice gut on hogan these days!! i notice they didnt really have an impromptu match per say! i wonder if hussan pulled his creative control of his character card backstage and said , fuck this im not selling for some 50 year old guy with Rick Derringer singing his theme song??? the part with hogan posing by the american flag on the screen was a great touch tho! hopefully hogan stays gone! good to see eugene, midgets ARE awesome!

Orton/ Taker.... I just didn't care about this match. I like both guys just fine, but you can't have taker lose at mania, there's just no way to make that look right, especially with orton missing time coming up as someone mentioned. BTW shouldn't cowboy bob sue vince by now for the shit doctors mcmahon provides if that arm is still broken after 21 years?lol

women's..... was surprised hemme didn't win. Although 5 head has absolutely no skill in the ring I just figured laying down for playboy guarunteed you a title run. trish looked hot even with not much skin showing. but anyway does anyone ever care about the women's match?

hbk/angle...... the reason i spent 50 bucks for this ppv was this match. not for cena, not for jbl, not for hhh, and not batista, i wanted to see this match and thought it had potential to be better than savage/steamboat. What a thriller many great spots. I still can't believed michaels tapped. i thought it could defnetly go either way but thought it would be a pin, not a tap.both men are what is good about WWE they made it feel like wretlemania!! outshined every match put together. be interesting to see where each man goes from this


piper's pit...... what a total piece of crap. huge opportunity blown here. well let me clarify, if austin being there was a 1 time thing then it doesn't really matter. But to me the sign was he is coming back in some capacity, the austin returns promos, and the new t shirt seem to indicate he is going to be around. that is the great news. But.. if that is the case boy did WWE blow a shot at making this great. What better man to go face to face with austin than piper. He was more on last night then he had been in almost 10 years. I thought when piper started introducing him then said "bullshit" he was gonna try to claim he was the originator of what austin does. I loved when piper got on the idiot fans about the "what" (the dumbest thing in wrestling). but where they dropped the ball...... piper should have kept into austin, goading him about leaving, coming, back, leaving again. Kept on him about quitting, what kind of rebel just quits? whre is that fire austin, where the hellraiser? what kind of worlds toughest son of a bitch rides a 4 wheeler and calls himself the sherriff? prompting austin to light up and claim hes gonna come back and take over then stunning piper. CArlito????? are we serious??? Fing carlito? what a waste, totally idiotic


Sumo match.... again huge blown opportunity. we all knew this was gonna suck and it did. However at least for the torment of seeing 2 500 lb fatties in butt floss the least we could have gotten was big show going ape shit after losing, and chokeslamming tub o goo and that annoying screaming kimono wearing fruit! turning him heel. We are all concerned about who is batista going to fued with no since there is only HHH, what about Cena, all there is is JBL again. At least with show heel u gain something! waste of time and dollars!


jbl/cena..... we all know how i feel about marky mark and ted dibiase jr. The match sucked, they had a month to design this match together and that is what they came up with?? cena is over with or without the title so he didn't need it, and i wouldn't say he has paid al lthat many dues to earn the title so i don't see the sense of this. jbl without the belt isn't even a midcarder, his character is useless without the title, but whatever. this match though should have been like a streetfight though. Neither guy can wrestle, and with michaels and angle just putting on a wrestling clinic, and HHH/ batista coming up next who are gonna have the same snoozefest as these two goons, i thought jbl and cena could have gotten better reviews by just going all out with a streetfight. In and out of the ring, making it look real personal, not just mailing it in like they did. JBL had escaped every situation as champ you could think of...yet he couldn't escape the power of pumped up reeboks?wow way to go guys! lets make him look like a total chump!


HHH/batista.... as a kid i was always so mad that even if hogan didn't have the belt he was still the last match of the night and title matches played second fiddle, but this should have been one of those nights. Angle/michaels should have gone last! HHH and batista had been running mates for 2 years and the best match they could give was that on the biggest night?? both of them exposed that the other cannot carry a good match with a like opponent. Such a slow pace. reminded me at some points of hhh/steiner. Good to see batista win only for the fact that i would like to see anyone but HHH have the belt


some good spots in the night don't get me wrong, but some missed spots i thought too. got what i expected of the title matches , but would have liked to see some things different, here is hoping that the new storylines are good for this year

[Sadistic]

As far as PPVs go, it was average. As far as wrestlemanias go, it was bad.
I'm sure long time wrestling fans will agree with me here.
I must write a proper review on amazon, it's so annoying to see 'Dis waz da best wrestlemania eva!' in reviews by stupid kids that have been watching wrestling for a few months.

[RemyRed]

lol c'mon Kane Knight & Loose Cannon. My post was an obvious joke.

[Gouda]

What exactly was Rey's costume ment to be this year?

Super Dave? :shifty:

With that American flag jumpsuit he came out with...

[Loose Cannon]

I don't understand. How can you trade the WWE Champion? Do you want to leave SmackDown! without a champion at all, and have RAW have two main titles? Or do you mean after he jobs to JBL in the future?

There was talk of Batista for Cena. Don't know if it's still on, but the CHAMPS CAN BE TRADED.

[blake639raw]

There was talk of Batista for Cena. Don't know if it's still on, but the CHAMPS CAN BE TRADED. I would like to see Cena dominate RAW, but realistically, with HHH on RAW, Cena will just be buried.

[John la Rock]

ya I would also like to see Eddie for Shawn

[John la Rock]

Also I would love to see an Angle vs HBK Iron Man Match :drool:

[McLegend]

There was talk of Batista for Cena. Don't know if it's still on, but the CHAMPS CAN BE TRADED.
I would like to see the titles get switced just because I want to see something new.

[Scarface]

Wrestlemania was pretty good. I was suprised Batista won the title but that was about it. Could have done without the Sumo match and maybe had the battle royale in its place.

[Savio]

LOL. JUST LOL. Why didn't you just order some Porn and some Backyard Wrestling Part 13*Whoosh*

[SammyG]

Angle HBK: match of the year 10/10
Eddie Rey: 7/10
Hogans return: MARK OUT
Batista H: Predictable, 9/10 though
Cena JBL: 7/10 not even close to being better, mediocre match
Eugene talking bout midgets : :D
Ladder match: 9.9/10 Gave me a whole new respect for sheltno
Sumo match: Akebonos dick was hanging out and it was disgusting, 2/10
Trish Christy: Am i the only one who kinda liked this? it wasnt too bad, 6/10

[SammyG]

- Vince McMahon was opening socially with everyone. Christy Hemme was seen trying to apologize to McMahon for her match, although Vince told her that everything was fine.

[Source: WrestlingObserver.com]

[Corkscrewed]

That kinda sounds like a funny BS blurb. Not doubting the cred, but the wording was funny.

[RGWhat316]

I'm gonna get a chance to watch it again! I went to my buddy's house for RAW, the same person who I saw WM with, and he taped it. So he let me borrow the tape. He said the tape screwed up early, but Money in the Bank to the end is all there.

[Gouda]

You know what could have made the sumo match entertaining?

SIMON DEAN.

[SammyG]

Haha, yeah that woulda been sweet. And a snitsky heidernreich thing backstage woulda been great too

[Lara Emily]

Finally got around to ordering it.

Pretty good show, not as good as X-9, slightly better overall but without the awesome ending XX had.

Eddie vs Rey was good but I'd have prefered Eddie going over

SHelton is gonna be huge someday, Edge winning was useless, but the match was pretty damn good

Hogan had way too long of a posedown but meh whatever

UT vs Orton was suprisingly decent, second best RKO ever too. Glad UT won since any momentum Orton would have gotten from picking up the win would have been lost due to his injury, that and Orton just isn't the future.

The Women's title match was thankfully short and not terrible. I kinda dug the out of nowhere KO ending

Angle vs HBK: Match of the night, potential match of the year, I personally didn't find any of it boring, but that's just me.

Piper's Pit was pretty funnym with the whole respect through violence thing, Carlito was hillarious. Piper seemed really intoxicated, but hey that's Piper. Didn't really dig the Stunner on Piper but meh it was bound to happen

Big show vs Akebono

Didn't watch it so moving on

JBL vs Cena

Meh, seemed like a Smackdown quality match, short and rather bland, the FU still sucks but at least Cena went down with the move instead of just remaining standing

HHH vs Batista

I'll have to get back to you on that, I dozed off. I will say that HHH could have had an amazing entrance if Motorhead, namely Lemmy didn't fuck up the song so bad that I had flashbacks of WM 2000 and Pimpin' Ain't Easy Man

[#1-norm-fan]

[Source: WrestlingObserver.com]

Jesus, that's adorable.

[#1-norm-fan]

Over on Raw, Batista and Bischoff have had some "altercations". (Batista insulted Bischoff in a smarmy way on two straight Raws before Mania.

On SD, Long and Cena, both faces, have had some preoblems. (Cena FUing Long, leading to Long banning Cena from touching JBL).

Now both guys are champs of their respective brand. It seems not only very possible that there could be a trade of the champions with both GMs not getting along with their champ but maybe it's been in the works for the past few weeks now.

Interesting...

[the_rock's_#1_fan]

I think WM 21 will definitely go down in WWE history as on of the BETTER Manias, but definitely not quite one of the BEST, Overall I'd give it a 7.75 out of 10.
