CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Payno I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

wrestlingsitewebmaster WWE pulled out all the stops, to make this Wrestlemania memorable and they certainly did that in more ways then 1, some of which where beyond the company's control. For instance as viewers may have been aware after The Undertaker vs Edge match as Taker was celebrating his win, the fireworks shot into the crowd and injured about 40 people.The Batista vs Umaga match was disappointing, and as Big Dave had a match with The Undertaker last year and in my opinion his match last year was the best match of 2007, it reminded me that Batista can have a dire match with even the best of workers, in this case Umaga. Listen when Umaga makes his way down the ramp for his match, William Regal announces him as "You - Manga", no surprise there.By putting the Edge vs Undertaker match on last WWE did the right business decision, because if WWE had put HHH vs Randy Orton vs John Cena match on last I would be suffering from HHH overkill.As usual the Money in the Bank Ladder Match was very good but was let down by a couple of botched moves, The Big Show vs Floyd Mayweather match was very good and exceeded my expectations, however this writer is baffled on why the WWE would pay Mayweather $2 million for one worked match, when Edge, The Undertaker, Randy Orton and John Cena wouldn't even earn that in 1 year, disregarding royalty bonuses of course.Results from the show before a crowd of 70,000 in Orlando, Florida at the Citrus Bowl are as follows: JBL downed Finlay in a decent Belfast Brawl.... CM Punk beat John Morrison, Montel Vontavious Porter, Chris Jericho, Carlito, Shelton Benjamin and Mr Kennedy in a thrilling Money in the Bank Ladder Match.... Floyd 'Money' Mayweather defeated The Big Show in a good no DQ brawl.... Shawn Michaels pinned Ric Flair in an emotional career ending match.... Kane downed Chavo Guerrero to win the ECW title in about 10 seconds.... Randy Orton downed Triple H and John Cena to retain the WWE title in a good match.... Beth Pheonix and Melina downed Ashley and Maria (the lights failed in this match, but not that anyone was complaining and afterwards Snoop Dogg close lined Santino Marella and then gave Maria a giant snog, lucky him).... Batista defeated Umaga in a mediocre match.... The Undertaker beat Edge to win the World Heavyweight Championship in a superb worthy main event.I attended a Raw House Show in Liverpool, England on the 11th April and this was called The Wrestlemania Revenge Tour, if you want the results for these please e-mail me at [email protected] Overall Grade - A

theboss7950 A Fantastic Wrestlemania!!!!! JBL vs Finlay(Belfast Brawl) A great way to kick the show off!! Some nice damage was dished out on both sides. JBL fought more like he did in his APA days(and thats a good thing). Finlay took most of the punishment but he looked good doing it. THANKFULLY, Hornswaggle did not screw up the match. Both of these men are worthy of World Title gold IMO. 8/10 Money in the Bank Match(Morrison vs Benjamin vs CM Punk vs Carlito vs MVP vs Jericho vs Kennedy) This M.I.B was a lot better than last years. Though Jeff Hardy was not present, these men really tore the house down. All 7 wrestlers really put out, but Morrison and Benjamin were the true stars of this match. Morrison does a moonsault to the outside while holding a ladder and Benjamin was his usual superbly athletic self(he also took one of the ugliest falls ever seen at Wrestlemania). If WWE knows whats good for them they should focus a lot of attention on these 7 men who are undoubtedly the future of this business. 10/10 Batista vs Umaga(Inter-promotional match) This match was pretty solid. Not excellent, but it also was nowhere near terrible. It could have been a little longer, and a few weapons might have benefited the match more. Batista evidently strains his back power bombing the 300 pound Umaga. 7/10 Kane vs Chavo Guerrero(ECW Title) I can't say this match was bad because there was no match!!!!!!!!! Kane chokeslammed Guerrero and won!!It was probably cut short due to time. Guerrero and Kane deserve better though. --/10 Shawn Michaels vs Ric Flair(Retirement match) HBK was supposed to give Ric Flair the greatest match of his career, and in my opinion this was. Both men worked well together(which HBK can do with anybody) and they both received and dished out a lot of punishment. The first and last "Sweet Chin Music"'s were pretty ugly on the 59 year old Flair. HBK darn near tore himself in half when he missed the moonsault on the table and hits mainly floor when Flair was late to receive HBK from a diving moonsault from the turnbuckle to the outside. Great match!! 9.5/10 Beth Phoenix & Melina vs Ashley & Maria (BunnyMania Lumberjill Match) This was the only terrible match in this years Wrestlemania. A huge waste of time. This is the match that should have been cut short. Nothing great or superb happened. Just the exploitation of the Divas which I'm really getting sick of. Oh, and I forgot, Snoop Dogg was pointlessly in this match. 5/10 John Cena vs HHH vs Randy Orton(WWE Title match) Now I honestly must say, I had my doubts about this one at first. But these 3 men worked pretty well together!!! Cena and Orton actually out shined the veteran HHH who still performed pretty well. The match could have been a tad bit longer but it definitely gets you on your feet. Great entrance by Cena(who I must say is actually getting a little better). 9/10 Floyd Mayweather vs Big Show/ I thought this was going to be yet another pointless celebrity showing. But this was a very good match and Mayweather gets my respect for taking a lot of punishment. The crowd was really into this match!! Great work by both men. 8/10 Undertaker vs Edge(World Title) Both of these men deserved this long overdue slot in the main event. It started out a bit slow with brawling going back and forth, but then it started to pick up towards the middle. The whole title vs streak idea, added with the main event suspense really had me on the edge of my seat!!! Taker gains the title once more and is now 16-0!!! 9/10

Legend Killer This Wrestlemania was a great Wrestle Mania. Not a contender for the greatest Wrestle Mania of all time however, but a great Wrestle Mania. There was no match I felt that will be talked about in 20 years time, e.g Bret Hart vs Stone Cold Steve Austin, which is why it won't go down as one of the greatest Wrestle Mania's of all time in my opinion. There were however some superb 'Match of the Year' contenders. Also, that kind of atmosphere hasn't been seen since Summer Slam 1992.1) Fit Fnlay vs JBL (Belfast Brawl)A good enough opening for a Wrestle Mania. JBL (who is in terrible shape by the way) did his whole moody heartless routine whilst Finlay carried on the role of the babyface. Hornswoggle was a welcome addition at ringside. A rushed feud, but a decent match: C-2) Money In The Bank Ladder MatchShelton Benjamin decided to steal the show for the 3rd time in a Money In The Bank Ladder Match at Wrestle Mania. The spot from the top of the ladder to the ladder outside of the ring was breathtaking. Matt Hardy made a great cameo appearance taking out MVP. We had a Code Breaker using a ladder, a Back Cracker from the top of the ladder & a moonsault from John Morrison whilst he was holding a ladder. As far as in-ring action goes, this match stole the show: B+3) Batista vs UmagaAn average 'RAW' quality match. Batista is starting to see signs that the crowd are getting bored of him. He got a lot of boos in this match. Neither man really did anything to make the viewers remember this match... Very average: D-4) Chavo Guerrero vs KaneLOL! The shortest match in Wrestle Mania history. This match reminded everybody not to assume that they know what is going to happen next & it was nice to see the WWE give Kane his moment at Wrestle Mania even though it was a very short moment. For the element of surprise alone because there was no in-ring action: C+5) Ric Flair vs Shawn MichaelsThe only thing that these two men had to do was not wrestle like retards because this match was always going to be remembered fondly. This match was all about the wrestling world saying goodbye to the greatest heel in wrestling history. He may have wrestled for 10 years too long, but who could deny that they were choked up by this classic Wrestle Mania moment? A quick note must also be made about a sickening spot involving HBK moonsaulting from the middle rope onto the edge of the announcer's table. I can only assume that the spot was botched because it looked like one of the most painful spots in Wrestle Mania history & HBK looked genuinely in pain. The match was actually a good catch-as-catch-can wrestling match. For in-ring action: C+ / For the occasion: A*6) Randy Orton vs John Cena vs Triple HThe biggest upset since John Cena's victory over Triple H at Wrestle Mania XXII & Triple H's victory at Wrestle Mania 2000. For the doubters who continue to deny 'The Age Of Orton', this was his defining career moment. Much like HHH's victories over Mic Foley in 2000 cemented Triple H's place as the no.1 man in the business, this victory finally establishes Randy Orton as the top man in the industry (rivalled only by Edge). A decent, but short match. As good as it was expected to be: C+ moved up to a B- because of the surprise ending7) Playboy Bunny MatchA match that was put there to calm people down in between main events. Your usual half naked women trying to wrestle with the exception of Beth Pheonix who actually can. Also, a cameo appearance from Snoop Dogg who delivered a surprisingly well executed clothesline to a hilarious Santino Marella: E8) Big Show vs Floyd MayweatherA match that could've potentially been the biggest flop since Hogan vs Warrior Part #2. However, this match lived up to all of the hype. Mayweather should take plaudits for giving a very credible performance and achieving levels of in-ring storytelling that many WWE superstars fail to achieve. The interference by Mayweather's posse added extra scandal to the match and the finish was great to watch. Both characters came off looking credible as did the WWE in general. For the in-ring action: C+ For the storyline entertainment: B+9) Edge vs UndertakerThe best Wrestle Mania 'WRESTLING' match since Angle vs Michaels. Edge reminded everybody that he's one of the best in the business & not just a transitional champion. He was actually more dominant over The Undertaker than anybody else has ever been at a Wrestle Mania. Edge reversed almost every Undertaker move and what made the match even more interesting was the less predictable finish which saw The Dead Man win via submission instead of The Tombstone that EVERYBODY was expecting him to win by: B+Overall a great Wrestle Mania. The matches were of a Wrestle Mania standard, the atmosphere was AMAZING and the segments & celebrity involvement really made it feel like a Wrestle Mania. A great improvement on last year's disappointing Wrestle Mania XXIII: B+

KillerK1991 Most the matches on the card were solid. Most ended up being a lot better than I though they were. There was really only one mediocre match that was thankfully short.The results were as follows: 1. The Undertaker def. World Heavyweight Champion Edge (New Champion)- Great way to end the show. Edge put on one hell of a performance. He dominated the contest. He may have came up short, but he went out a fighting champion, redeeming his other hilariously cheap wins. Undertaker delivered as well, refusing to show any signs of age hindering his step. I can see both main eventing Wrestlemanias for their respective brands for years to come.(5/5)2. Floyd "Money" Mayweather def. Big Show (Knockout)- This surprisingly lived up to the hype(or lack thereof), and delivered one of the most entertaining contests in Wrestlemania history. Big Show has really stepped up his game. Mayweather should stick around a while longer-he makes a great heel.(4.5/5)3. Triple Threat Match: Randy Orton def. John Cena and Triple H (Orton retains WWE Title)- The best result of the night. It's very refreshing to see WWE pull a wild card. Like him or not, Orton needed this win a 100x more than HHH and Cena.(4/5)4. Beth Phoenix & Melina def. Ashley & Maria in the BunnyMania Lumberjack Match- This shocked me the most. The divas actually put on a good match for once. Ashley and Melina remind me of Lita and Trish, and should feud for the title sooner rather than later.(3.5/5)5. Kane def. ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero (New Champion)- About time Kane had his moment in the sun. A very brief moment I might add...(3/5)6. SmackDown vs. Raw: Batista def. Umaga- The worst match of the night, they needed to spice it up quite a bit by making it a cage match or something. I wasn't interested at all.(2/5)7. Shawn Michaels def. Ric Flair (Career Threatening Match)- Unsurprisingly, they put on a clinic. Michaels, seemingly motivated by Flair's "moonsalt" comment the night before managed to deliver quite a few, including a crazy lionsalt from the outside apron through a table. Unfortunately they decided to end it with an incredibly cheesy ending, but at least they gave Flair the dignity of essentially putting himself away.(4/5) 8. CM Punk wins the Money in the Bank Ladder Match- Highlights of this thriller involved Morrison's laddersalt outside the ring, the Sunset Flip-Superplex-Bomb off the ladder delivered by Kennedy and Shelton, and Matt Hardy's somewhat predictable return. Jericho seemed poised to win but got his foot caught in the ladder by Punk in a moment reminiscent of Razor Ramon/HBK's finale years back.(5/5)9. JBL def. Finlay in a Belfast Brawl This match was okay. It was well placed at the beginning of the show and it was over quick, which was probably for the best considering the competitors(Though JBL's entertaining) and little that was at stake.(3/5)In short:Best Match: Edge vs Taker(Classic)Worst Match: Batista vs Umaga(Boring) Best Result: Orton Winning.(Refreshing)Worst Result: Mayweather winning.(Predictable)Overall: 9.5/10
