The 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania

Sure this is disappointing and sure the match card did not live up to its hype but by golly it is not the worst wrestlemania ever! Match #1- MITB Ladder match- Probably the least of my favorite MITB matches but it was still a great way to start the show particularly from Kofi Kingston and Shelton Benjamin's performances. 8/10 Match #2- A diva battle royal match to declare wrestlemania queen or something like that- Abmysal 0/10 Match #3- Chris Jericho vs. Legends Stemaboat,Piper and Snuka- This put me back into the show. Ricky Steamboat looked tremendous.WOW! 7.5/10 Match #4- Extreme Rules match- Hardy vs. Hardy- While it lacked surprises, it sure did deliver some shock and AWE moments. The Hardy that won deserved to win. 7.5/10 Match #5- Intercontinental Title match- JBL vs. Mysterio- Like last years ECW title match I cannot rate it. However, JBL was hilarious and Mysterio had an awesome outfit.

Mtch #6- Undertaker vs. HBK- This is the greatest wrestlemania match ever and one of the greatest wrestling matches ever to see again and again. You will be literally on your for feet the entire time and I was just exhausted after this match. Wish I can rate it 100/10 but of course 10/10.

Match #7- 3 Way World Heavyweight Title match- Edge vs. Big Show vs. Cena- Very good triple threat title match 7/10.

Match #8- WWE title match HHH vs. Orton- I've read reviews for this match and it wasn't horrible it was just not the right way to end the show and I agree Taker vs. HBK should have ended the show but this wasn't a complete waste of time. It has its moments but this main event is far from great and it is the least favorite main event since Wrestlemania 21. But overall over decent match. 6/10.

The performances of Taker and HBK obviously saved the show but other reviews said it was one of the worst wrestlemanias of all time-I absolutely don't agree with that. This is a very solid show saved from being decent. OVERALL: 7/10

wrestlemania 25 was supposed to be the biggest event if the year bu it seem to a ppv with only one good match out of what 10 12 matches. it was like watching tna not the wwe and wwe is supposed to be a better wrestling show. if wrestlemaina 26 is going to be like this whats the point of watching wwe it's like your watching tna which is the worst wrestling company in the world. the only good part of wrestlemania was hbk vs taker which is the only match i watched fully from the whole wrestlemaina. if Vince wants wwe to be come more popular why not make it hbk vs taker in a hell in a cell match or Rey mysterio vs cena vs hbk vs taker in a ladder match for the world title.

'WrestleMania 25' is supposed to be a grand affair, a brand which has been the most prominent affair in the history of WWE. But sadly the event doesn't live up to its mark.... Minus HBK vs Undertaker, no other match makes you go wow!! WM 25 could've been the best event ever, but sadly it joins the league of events like 'Summer Slam', 'Royal Rumble' and 'Survivor Series', not WM.

Things which left a mark: HBK vs Undertaker. The-duo once again proved that they are the true legends of WWE, delivering a fantastic match. Easily, The best WrestleMania in recent times. The Showstopper and The Deadman deserve a standing ovation for their contribution in WWE. Mickey Rourke's cameo was entertaining, knocking Y2J down.

The disappointments: Everything else. The Money In The Bank match was plain mediocre. Y2J vs The Legends was good, not great. The match reminded me of RAW. Triple H vs Randy Orton was a yawn. The built up for the match was instigating, but the result was narrow. Santina winning miss WM was unintentionally funny. Jeff vs Matt was boring, ditto for the other matches.

Being a hardcore fan of WWE since childhood, I expected a lot from WM 25, but sadly it didn't reach my expectation. HBK vs Undertaker, will surely be remembered as one of the greatest matches of WWE history. The performers didn't disappoint, the event did.

Wrestlemania was held in Houston, Texas and the show was decent. That said 2 of the WWE's most reliable superstars (Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker) saved this show from being mediocre.

The Money in the Bank Ladder match was good but was let down by botched moves, like for instance Shelton Benjamin was going to sunset flip power bomb MVP off a ladder but Porter was late releasing his grip, which resulted in both men falling to a heap on the floor. WWE didn't need to have Mark Henry, Finlay or Kane in there, they could have put the likes of R-Truth, The Brian Kendrick or Evan Bourne in with Kofi Kingston, Christian, MVP, CM Punk and Shelton Benjamin to make it more interesting.

The Rey Mysterio vs JBL match was a waste of time, 21 seconds long? Why bother putting it on a super show? Oh yeah to make room for Kid Rock's abysmal singing which lasted 11 minutes but seemed like 11 hours. This was one of the reason's why the WWE unified tag team title match pitting Carlito and Primo against The Miz and John Morrison was cut from the PPV to make room for Kid Rock. If Kevin Dunn generally believes that he done good making this decision he needs his head testing.

The 25 Diva battle royal was abysmal. Not memorable at all, Trish Stratus made the right decision turning the offer down to appear on it and Santino..... oops sorry Santina Marella winning it seemed like someone's idea of a joke.

I was hoping that WWE would have put Chris Jericho in there with Ricky Steamboat alone. My fears were confirmed when they announced that Steamboat would be teaming with the ancient 64 year old Jimmy Snuka and the barely mobile Roddy Piper. Give Steamboat his due he had a very good 4 minute scrap with Jericho at the end. But the result with anti-climatic, fans sensing a feel good ending were baffled when Steamboat lost.

The Triple Threat match between Edge, Big Show and John Cena was OK but not the best, Big Show was totally knackered but looking at Show's age (37) weight (440 pounds) and his condition (knackered)it's no wonder he's feeling the strain of wrestling long matches. This isn't the same Paul Wight who wrestled in WCW were he was billed as the Giant. Wight who could execute moonsaults and standing drop kicks in WCW, has never really fulfilled his true potential and never will.

The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels was outstanding. Possibly the best match at a Wrestlemania. Undertaker won with a Tombstone. Watch out for when Taker landed on the camera man, that was Sim Snuka (yes the same Sim Snuka who used to wrestle as Duece in the tag team with Domino, and hasn't been seen for months) Results from the show: CM Punk won the MIBL match which also featured, Kane, Finlay, Kofi Kingston, Christian, Shelton Benjamin, MVP and Mark Henry.... Rey Mysterio downed John Bradshaw Layfield in 21 seconds to win the Intercontinental Championship.... Chris Jericho downed Jimmy Snuka, Roddy Piper and Rick Steamboat in an elimination match.... John Cena defeated Big Show and Edge in a passable triple threat match to win the Heavyweight title.... Matt Hardy pinned Jeff Hardy in a good Extreme Rules match.... Santina Marella won the diva Battle Royal.... The Undertaker pinned Shawn Michaels in a superb match.... Triple H defeated Randy Orton in a disappointing match to retain the WWE title.

Overall grade - B/C

WrestleMania 25 (The 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania) was a spectacular event that truly captured the grandeur and excitement of WWE's biggest stage. With an electrifying atmosphere, iconic matches, and unforgettable moments, this show lived up to its legendary status!

The absolute show-stealer of the night was The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels. This match is often regarded as one of the greatest in WrestleMania history, with flawless storytelling, jaw-dropping near falls, and an emotional rollercoaster that kept fans on the edge of their seats. Two legends at their very best!
