Kkarensheart This has to be the greatest Wrestlemania since 17...

beasly_c The results of WrestleMania 22 both shocked and pleased everyone who watched it! The matches - Tag Team Championship Match - Big Show and Kane vs. Carlito and Chris Masters... This match was a great match. During the match, Kane got booed for and the Carlito fans definitely showed their support through their cheers but in the end after an exciting match, the winners became apparent as Carlito fell to the Chokeslam winning Big Show and Kane the match.Money in the Bank Match - RVD vs. Matt Hardy vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Finlay vs. Ric Flair vs. Shelton Benjamin... This was an extremely heated match and there was much excitement! In this match we saw Ric Flair be taken off in a stretcher with a leg injury from a ladder, but being the true player he is, he came back out again ready to fight for the contract! Unfortunately for him, in the final moments of the match, Matt Hardy and Benjamin were both on the same ladder trying to get the briefcase when Van Dam came along, planted another ladder next to theirs, pushed them both over (including the ladder) and grabbed the case! An excellent win for RVD!United States Champoinship - Chris Benoit vs. JBL... The former champion, Chris Benoit fought hard in this match, throwing German Suplexes, The Three Amigos and a diving headbutt into the mix at various times. And when he locked the Crippler Crossface in victory seemed only a tap away, but JBL fought back and using the ropes without the ref seeing, he won through false pinfall.Hardcore Match - Mick Foley (Cactus Jack vs. Edge)... This match was an amazing match! Thimb tacks, steel chairs and even burning tables were all present in the hell raising match. Sfter awakening the Cactus Jack hiding in Mick Foley, Edge was scared but through all the hell and barbed wire, Edge came out the victor.Handicap Match - Booker T and Sharmell vs. The Boogeyman... This match was a complete no brainer! After faking an injury previously, Booker T was trying so hard to not be defeated. Unfortunately fear took over him and his wife, as The Boogeyman open mouth kissed Sharmell (worms and all). So obviously The Boogeyman won! Not much wrestling, just comedy I suppose!Womens Championship - Trish Stratus vs. Mickie James... Now this was a match in which we all thought Trish would return to the locker room Womens Champion, but were we wrong?! Mickie spent the whole match releasing all this anger she now has toward her former idol Trish Stratus. After a main match, Mickie performed the Mick Kick which put Trish out. This gave her enough time to pin her and break her 15 month reign over the belt!Casket Match - Undertaker vs. Mark Henry... This was a very exciting match! After both men had been in the casket, and a close shave for Henry, Undertaker managed to roll the huge Mark Henry into the casket and shut the lid, securing him a victory and carrying on his no loss streak in WrestleMania!No Holds Barred - HBK Shawn Michaels vs. Mr. McMahon... This was a greatly anticipated match! HBK had God on his side during this match. After completely beating Vince to a pulp, chaining his son Shane to the ropes and giving the fans a DX suck it taunt, he exited the ring the winner of the match! But not before Mr. McMahon was carried off in a stretcher!Smackdown! Main Event - Triple Threat for the World Heavyweight Championship - Rey Mysterio vs. Kurt Angle vs. Randy Orton... Nobody thought Rey could pull this one off! After all, it was originally meant to be Reys title match anyway, and then it got taken off him by cheating Randy Orton, he deserved to win! I don't think Orton knew what hit him and neither did Kurt!Playboy Pillow Fight - Torrie Wilson vs. Candice Michelle... This was a long time coming! It was perfect revenge and the perfect setting for Torrie to get Candice after all she's done to her! She got the win with a rollup and won the match!WWE Championship - John Cena vs. HHH... This was one of the most exciting matches of the whole night! Now many people say Cena is turning heel, but I don't think so! I think that hes 10x the man HHH is, but everyone has their own opinion of The Champ. There was mainly booing for Cena and cheering for HHH that night, but that didn't stop Cena from trying his very hardest, as usual!! HHH soon submitted to the deadly STFU from Cena, and Cena walked away triumphant until his next challenger dared to stand up...
tryking2003 This had to be one of the most god awful wrestlemanias ever and is only saved by 2 matches. The hardcore match between Edge and Mick Foley, also Vince Mcmahon against Shaun Michaels. The main event between Cena and Triple H was a complete washout and to be honest I nearly fell asleep it was so actionless, the casket match was not worthy of having the Undertaker appear in it and the match between the Boogie Man and Booker T was a complete joke. If you are really a big fan of the WWE and have missed the early days of the WWF and the Wrestlemanias 17 and 19 you'll probably love this. But I found that this Wrestlemania left a lot to be desired.
Ikepoiyen668894 A very enjoyable Wrestlemania, a lot better then last year. Great matches, a crowd that was loud, bizarre and relentless. Here's a recap1. Chris Masters & Carlito Vs. Big Show & Kane - Tag Titles 7/10, A solid opener with Kane and Big Show coming off really effective as the dominant force, Carlito was way over with the crowd in this one. WINNER - BIG SHOW AND KANE2. Money In The Bank Ladder Match 9/10 I can't stress how much I enjoyed this match, it was far better then last year's, Benjamin and R.V.D were awesome, Benjamin performs a leap from the top rope onto the ladder, absolute awesome. Lashley was pretty poor, Hardy, Flair and Finlay held their own. R.V.D was way over. WINNER - RVD3. Chris Benoit Vs. J.B.L - US Title 5/10 As expected an average match, I like JBL's promos but he's not the most entertaining wrestler to watch. A bit of a surprising and anti climatic ending. WINNER - JBL4. Edge Vs. Mick Foley - Hardcore Match 7.5/10 Super match, great spots, the ending was awesome, you must see it. Hats off to the risk taking from Edge and Foley. WINNER - EDGEA super segment involving Snitsky, Mae Young, Goldust, Booker T, Sharmell, Million Dollar Man and Eugene.5. Booker T & Sharmell Vs. Boogeyman 3.5/10 As I didn't expect much from this match I wasn't too disappointed but it's fair to say Boogeyman cannot wrestle a dot bit. The match is rather predictable to be honest. Boring chants break out during the match. WINNER - BOOGEYMAN6. Trish Stratus Vs. Mickie James - Women's Title 6.5/10 A strong women's encounter but what was most exciting was the crowd, Mickie was so over with the crowd, everything she did was cheered and Trish was predominantly booed out the building. It was going so well and I was growing on Mickie but then she proved what I've been saying for months, she's sloppy. She botches a stratus faction which the crowd let her know about. WINNER - MICKIE7. Undertaker Vs. Mark Henry - Casket Match 4/10 Now I am no huge Undertaker fan but this guy deserves so much better then Mark Henry, Undertaker tried as hard as he could but Henry is just so lame that there is nothing Taker can do to make this match interesting, it's slow, boring and so predictable even for the most retarded mark. WINNER - UNDERTAKERAnother great segment this time with the McMahon's, Vince says a prayer and has a few words with God - funny stuff.8. Shawn Michaels Vs. Vince McMahon - No Holds Barred 7/10 A plain and simple McMahon beat down from HBK, it is so much fun to watch and probably edges the Hogan/Vince match of WM19. HBK performs a stunning elbow drop from the top of a ladder. WINNER - HBK9. Rey Mysterio Vs. Kurt Angle Vs. Randy Orton - World Heavyweight Title 8/10 I wanted and thought I would be giving this match 10/10 but due to the fact it was so short I just couldn't do it, none the less it was very good, Kurt Angle carried this match like never before, he was at his best. As for Rey, well I felt sorry for him, it was his crowning moment and the crowd pooed all over it, they booed him every time he went to hit Angle, a shame really but hey it's Kurt Angle you beat him up you annoy a heck load of people. WINNER - REY MYSTERIO10. Torrie Vs. Candice - Pillow fight 2/10 Oh dear, okay these two are so sexy but they are so lame in the ring it becomes a crime to watch, as expected from the rampaging crowd, they proceed in crapping all over this match. An awful match but it wasn't pointless as they needed a toilet break match in somewhere. They also needed a match to put in between the World title matches in order to kill the crowd, which they did and did so in flying colours. WINNER - TORRIE11. John Cena Vs. Triple H - WWE Championship 9/10 Remember Rock/Hogan WM18 how the crowd ate up and made that match, well exactly the same here. This match was the main event and judging by crowd reaction to it, it's good it was. It wasn't a technical wrestling showcase but a heart pounding, near falls, emotionally charged match up. They both have weird entrances by the way. At first the crowd really get on Cena's back and are well into the Game, I thought both men played to the crowd spectacularly, I thought a few of the chants towards Cena were unacceptable and went beyond what it should go, after all this is just entertainment. As the match went on the crowd got louder and louder and they seemed to swerve a bit towards Cena that made for the old 50/50 chanting banter, a "Let's go Cena" "Cena sucks" chant breaks out, really good stuff and a few more false endings before the match comes to a dramatic and surprising ending. WINNER - JOHN CENAAll in all a very good Wrestlemania, anyone who says otherwise is just sum stuck up smark who can't get their head out their rare end. The crowd were brutal and loud, thumbs up to Wrestlemania 22. Some strong matches but a few diobolical ones.
