I love the way the audience goes "Yay !!"/"Boo !!" during every fist fight since the beginning of the show.

EDIT : Damn, beaten !
BOO !
 
Dont worry he will lose it again in a few weeks, it always happends to the poor guy :lol

I hope on gods green earth that for as long as taker will wrestle his wrestlemania legacy never gets broken, i dont want to see a single loss on it.
 
I think this shows Edge can roll with the big boys.
Hell of a match.

The man's arsenal of reversals is deeper than Cena's moveset. :lol

The man-crush people have on Edge is damn near sickening. He's good, but not as good as Undertaker and never will be. I'd even go as far to say Christian was the better of the two.
 
There were so many things that seemed off including the finish to the triple threat match and the Batista/Umaga match. It was like a lot of it was thrown together at the last minute.

So, please explain to me how this was a bad wrestlemania, even the matches we expected that would sucked turn out pretty good.

1. Horrible Playboy Bunny match.
2. Horrible triple threat with an anti-climatic ending.
3. Disappointing opening Belfast Brawl.
4. The whole Mayweather/Big Show match.
5. The ECW match.
6. A Jeff Hardy-less MitB without the spots from last year.

The two best matches were HBK/Flair and Undertaker/Edge, which I both enjoyed.
 
1. Horrible Playboy Bunny match.-Better then we thought, they didn't let the talentless people win
2. Horrible triple threat with an anti-climatic ending.T-he match was god and it gave Orton a well need win for his title reign.
3. Disappointing opening Belfast Brawl.-People expected much from this match?
4. The whole Mayweather/Big Show match.-It wasn't as utter crap as all of us predicted
5. The ECW match.-Good point, at least kane won it
6. A Jeff Hardy-less MitB without the spots from last year.-He broke the drug policy, blame him not the WWE

1. The Playboy Bunny match was just horrible. There were botches throughout the match from both sides. Sure, the one good thing is the talented wrestlers won. But they actually made people believe Maria and Ashley had a chance, which makes talented wrestlers like Mickie James look fucking horrible considering they couldn't beat Beth Phoenix. It should have been a squash or a gimmicky match instead of a straight-up wrestling match.

2. I'm one of the bigger Orton marks around here and I just thought the match was boring. Orton gets the hell beat out of him the majority of the match and then just falls on Cena without doing a finisher or anything? Sure, he won by any means necessary, but he needed to have a stronger presence. It made him look weak.

3. I expected something out of it. But what's the point of this feud anymore? At least with Finlay going over it would add SOMETHING to the feud. JBL continues to win all these one or two-month feuds he has, but goes nowhere. That's also dumb WWE booking.

4. It was still pretty damn bad. Big Show chases Mayweather for half the match, beats him up for a quarter of it and then gets laid out by a chair and brass knucks. You're going to tell me Big Show couldn't grab a chair at any time and use it? Made him look like a buffoon, not to mention sucked credibility out of the business. At least with last year's gimmick, a regular wrestler beat another wrestler.

5. Point taken.

6. I'm not blaming the WWE for Jeff Hardy's stupidity. But the match definitely suffered without him. You could tell that by watching it. There were only two or three good spots and it ended with Jericho getting tangled on the ladder?
 
Orton wins! YES! The lesser of the three evils has won!

Let the man have the title longer! He's on his way to being a good champ! No more RAPADOO at least for one more day WOOOO

1.. well yeah
2 No way, the match was great and the ending was perfect.
3 I expected Fin to job, there is no way they would let him go over JBL.
4 While not good, at least Mayweather took some bumps which is more than I expected.
5 Yeah that was bullshit
6 The ladder match was gold. Shelton is dead, seriously I am pretty sure he is dead. Everyone went all out. The only downside was the Matt Hardy run in (though I heard about it ahead of time so I knew it was coming)

The only thing that disappointed me was Orton holding onto the title... I really don't want to see him with it anymore.

Better than HHH or Cena.


Interesting to hear that the Mayweather match was better than expected. Now I'm curious to see it.
 
I can't wait for the Orton/CM Punk match -_-


maybe Punk will cash it in next Mania

he seems like a year away from main event status anyway

your right on 1

2. Randy is weak. He wins by cheating and looking for the easiest way out.His booking is what separates him from Edge, 2 guys that are almost identical.

3. The feud isn't over because it's still hot. JBL winning was the right choice.

4. That was great booking. The big Show has said since the first promo that he can beat Mayweather easily. Having him resort to a chair would have hurt him far worse than losing to brass knuckles. Show was the face, fought like the face and lost like a face. They couldn't have booked it better than that.
5. Forgot ECW. yeah that was a joke, but kane was a good choice.
6. MiTB was slower this year and had less spots becuase they had to tease way more people winning. 4 people could have won that match, unlike the past MiTB. It was less explosive but far more thrilling than past MiTB. My friends were screaming when they thought MVP would win.

Overall it was a great WM. A little less fanfare than usual but the matches held up, the booking was great and everyone came out looking good. Especially Punk and Taker.
 
Ups: no one was expecting Orton to win his match. Good for the WWE by continuing to surprise the audience.

CM Punk winning the Money in the Bank basically means the WWE is going to put their support behind him in the near future. With Cena going to film a movie soon, this opens the door for a Triple H feud, or the WWE could let CM Punk cash the shot in early, like RVD did, and make a new star. This would be good for WWE, having a "straight-edge" star to help promote their wellness policy as well as what they view as a new star that promotes these feelings in the "stars of tomorrow." I'd say we will see CM Punk as WWE champion in the next six months. It doesn't hurt that the rumors are that the McMahons love him.

Downs: pretty much the entire rest of the show. Especially the ECW title match. Let's fly in Styles and Tazz for a ten fucking second match where someone who kicked the Money in the Bank briefcase winner's ass cleanly multiple times gets squashed on the biggest pay-per-view of the year. What a fucking load of horse shit. This is Gobbledegooker bad. What a fucking horrible creative decision. Definitely going to ruin the credibility of ECW even further, and ruin the credibility of the entire WWE if CM Punk goes anywhere in the next few months.

I see your points, and you have good ones. But for $65, $15 more than what I paid last year, I was expecting something at least on par with last year. The MitB was a lot better last year compared to this year. Both title matches were better than this year's. The women's title match, even though it had Ashley, was certainly better than this year's. At least the damn title was on the line. There were no 30 second squashes like the pitiful excuse of a ECW tag defense. The one thing that the WWE did better this year was the FANTASTIC match betwen Flair and HBK.

CM Punk will be the first MiTB winner to lose. mark my words. He'll be champ, but not soon

Howevr It's going to be interesting to see how he is booked. if the rumours are true that CM Punk will be getting jeff hardy's push and do anti-drug commercials like Cena did tonight and filling in john Cena role as the superhero wrestler,

Marvel.com: If you could choose only one WWE wrestler who reminds you of a super hero, who would it be?

Maria Kanellis: CM Punk because he's not only fighting evil in the ring, but he does it outside of the ring too; Punk is against drug use, drinking and promiscuous sex. He really is the "Straightedge Superstar." His passions toward his causes are as solid as Captain America's shield. Although I don't like putting Punk over—and I hope you put that part in there—he does do a lot of good things, like a super hero does.



than he may not be what you guys want.

And the ECW match won't hurt the show. Kane has been a dominant face on ECW, and he is over. Also a lot of smarks see this as kane finally getting a run as a world champ, so no one is going to shit on it.

Hmm i could see that. This year was a little lean, but I would recommended to anyone to grab the replay.

if only for the Flair/Micheals match. That is the match you point to and say "This is why I watch wrestling."

Indeed. That match should have been the main event, instead of crammed in between ECW and Playboy Bunnies.
