If Hornswoggle would have had one too, then it'd have been a WrestleMania monent.

No moment in wrestling history, aside from maybe Owen at Over the Edge, would've been better because Hornswoggle did the same thing.

i liked it for the most part, fuck you all. the last match was fucking dire though. the one before wasn't much better but i mustered a holy shit as cena lifted both big show and edge on his shoulders.
HBK + undertaker was incredible though. like i was on the edge of my seat acting like a spastic into the match. i think part of it is the fact i thought undertaker had broken his neck/paralyzed himself after the botched toprope thing. the fact he could do anything at all after that made everything he did do utterly amazing. |

I love JR's "out of body experience" spasm. That made the match 1000000X better...which is pretty fucking awesome. JR was "on" during that match.

Yeah, so at the risk of getting flamed here I know the HHH/Orton match was
, but honestly how many times has HHH won at mania over the last 10 years? He hasn't won at mania since WM19 so surely he desrves one win. Plus it's the first time in forfuckingever the Royal Rumble winner didn't win the belt at mania.

after the unbelievable intensity of Taker Michaels, this triple threat has actually been kinda fun. It's not the best thing in the world, but definitely watchable and a nice change of pace

Someone actually voted the Divas Battle Royal as match of the night? I like womens wrestling, but that match was a joke. The girls didnt get a real entrance, the ones that returned got no recognition, and a fake diva wins the thing. I was really disappointed in that.

thinking about it, i don't think i'd have enjoyed the undertaker michaels match half as much if undertaker didn't nearly break his fucking neck. it added a lot to proceedings, when he was stumbling around falling over trying to get back in the ring and it hit 9 was amazing. you got the feeling he really might not be able to get back in.

A really good undercard was totally destroyed by a lackluster main event.
The 3 way gave us what was to be expected, but HHH and Orton hitting their own finishes within 30 seconds of the match killed it for me. And the finish was super flat. I hope this goes some way to showing that HHH can't carry a crowd anymore. Taker/HBK was some of the best shit I've seen in years, like last HBk managed to make me think the predictable wouldn't happen, after he kicked out of the tombstone I stood up and started marking out for the first time in ages, that's why those 2 guys are still awesome. Also, get steamboat back on the full time roster

I haven't watched the World Title matches yet, but they sound pretty predictable. Surprise, surprise, Triple H puts himself over in the main event of WrestleMania XXV like he's the biggest star in professional wrestling. Cena winning the World Heavyweight Title at least made sense, though.
Money in the Bank was fantastic, and I totally called CM Punk winning it. All you had to do was really think about it. The same goes for Carlito & Primo winning the Tag Team Titles on the pre-show. The only other thing I didn't like about the show, was that Chris Jericho got bitched out by Mickey Rourke. I tried to reason that it was the Jericho mark in me talking, but I came to the conclusion it made Jericho look like a punk, and the business look inferior to acting. Flair could have at least low blowed Jericho before Rourke beat the crap out of him. Also, I agree, Ricky Steamboat making a short return would be fucking stupendous. |

I'm not usually this negative of WWE, but tonight was just a big mess. The biggest show of the year, just seemed rushed. I guess Vince has completely lost his mind and seemed to do whatever he could to piss people off or confuse them. There were way more negatives than there were positives to this show. And if I worked in WWE, I would be really upset over these past few days.
The undercard gets completely shat on. Usually some of these guys not on the WM card will get basic matches on one of the shows. But with the exception of RAW, both ECW and SD were mainly recap shows! So the only chance these guys get to be on WM is to be involved in a lumberjack match, then that gets bumped off the card! The women got robbed as well. Those who were excited to be returning, dont even get introductions, or barely last 30 seconds in a match. Then the winner is Santino Marella in drag. So these women dont even get to win their match. The celebrity appearances this year sucked as well. Nicole was fine in doing "God Bless America" since they do have someone sing that every year. But Kid Rock and Mickey Rourke seemed to take their good ol time being out there. Kid Rock gets about 10 minutes, and Rourke cant decide if he wants to get in the ring, he does slowly and gets 1 shot in on Jericho. The IC title gets defended for the first time since I believe '02, and that gets turned into an under 30 second joke. So JBL's history making moment is quitting? Most of the rest of the matches went fine, even the World Title match, which I expected Cena to win. Surprised CM Punk won MITB again. But with his win, I think he maybe the first guy to cash in and not win it. Steamboat really surprised me in the Legends match, even though Snuka and Piper looked horrible. Of course Shawn/Taker is the showstealer. Shawn's entrance was cool, and Takers suicide dive was unbelievable. But the main event between Orton and HHH now should have not been the main event. IMO, this has killed Randy Orton's momentum, and I dunno what can be done to regain it. The finish even left me with a "what, that's it?" reaction, which should not be a typical WM reaction. |

Noid, shut the fuck up. Triple H isn't the fucking booker, and he isn't the head writer. Please find a valid reason to bitch about the main event, like how it was rushed because of Kid Rock and Mickey Rourke taking too much fucking time.

They gave it a good 25 minutes. The reason I think it failed was because: 1. No matter what main evented that evening, it wouldn't of been as hot as Taker/HBK, the crowd were burnt out (see Mania 18, HHH trying to main event after Hogan and Rock stole the show) 2. Hitting both finishers in the first minute destroyed it for me, what else was there for the crowd to pop for? No teasing of it or anything. What are they? Backyarders, it makes no sense that later on they are reversing the finishers after 20 minutes, when they shouldn't have as much about them as they do in the first minute of fucking match 3. Considering that HHH was trying to avenge his family, there was very little actual intensity shown IMO 4. Like 3, if someone had done all this to me and my family, I would of been fighting more and wrestling less, too much attempted wrestling psychology for my liking, this should of been much more of a brawl 5. HHH, just isn't that over, time to except it |

HHH is in the main event because Vince and Steph love him. Steamboat vs Jericho would have been a better main event for chrissake. |

I think that the order of the matches was what made it somewhat disappointing. I thought overall it was good, espicially considering the product recently.
The legends match was fun. There was reason that Rourke took so long, it gave Jericho time to get him over as a babyface in the situation. Now, I have little in the way of issues with the way the Rourke situation went down, only because Rourke was a boxer. And I was thinking what if it was Arquette? Praise be to the Beard of Destiny that it was not Arquette. The tag match should have been on the card. As was stated, it was a horrible call to have the divas instead of a match that redefines the tag division. JBL vs. Mysterio should have been the curtain jerk. it also should have been a little longer. Kid Rock is an abortion waiting to happen. I really wish that they would not have a concert during a wrestlign show. Espicially the Big Daddy of them all. Divas Battle Royal. Poor. Enough said. Could have been alright, if they gave time to spotlight some of the divas. Such as Neidhart, Mickie, Molly, and Victoria. Could have been a 4 way or a tag. Past vs. Present. Kid Rock still sucks. The announce team could have been cut by two thirds. I really hate the king. JR has been calling it in for years and needs to retire. Time to pass the torch. The triple threat would have been better if the Big Show won. Cena isn't really even over with the 8-14 demographic anymore. Big Show should be a monster, like he was with the ECW belt. Hardy vs. Hardy was really enjoyable. I suspect that Matt will be pushed into the main event this year. It seems that when someone changes their gear they are getting ready for a push. I'm almost glad to see that they're going for a real split of the two. Matt getting "wrestling gear" while Jeff sticks with the jeans. In my opinion, this leaves the door open for each of them to go big places. Also, I bet it's just cool to go out and have a wrestling match with your brother at Wrestlemania. Shawn vs. Taker was brilliant. This is what Wrestlemania is all about. This match alone met and surpassed my expectations. I cannot begin to say enough good things about this. HHH vs. Orton is a victim of the order of the card I think. Someone said that this was a vengeance match and I concur with them. The build up was so good that it was hard for the match to meet with it. I might have done old school stipulations on the match: two out of three falls with a one hour time limit. *EDIT* Come ot think of it, I do think that there should have been more of a fight in this match, also, Orton should have been on the offensive for awhile. Maybe this match wasn't as good as my initial idea of it. Last edited by AJHayes; 04-06-2009 at 10:38 AM. |
