WWE Cruiserweight Championship Match Matt Hardy(c) with Shannon Moore vs Rey Mysterio
This was a pretty good match for the opener of Wrestlemania. I was really surprised at how much both men gave. Even thought Matt won, I have now to this day the respect of Rey, he gives it all he has during all his matches. This was a very fasted pased match, and you couldn't blink and keep up, and thats what I enjoy most. I give this a 9.5, great opener for a great event...read on!
Triple Threat Women's Championship Match Victoria with Steven Richards vs Trish Stratus vs Jazz
I for do not really care for the womens belt. This was a pretty good match. I give it a 3.
Triple Threat WWE Tag Team Championship Match The Worlds Greatest Tag Team(Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin) vs Eddie Guerrero & Chavo Guerrero vs Christ Beniot & Rhyno.
This was a very good tag team championship match. Even though Charlie Haas and His partner won, this was a very fast paced match with twist and turns in each direction. I just wish Chris Beniot & Rhyno would have won, they would have made a very good tag team, and even better champions! I give this match a solid 8.
Shawn Michaels VS Chris Jericho This had to be the best match of the night. Very hands on matchup between one of the greats and one of his former idols. I really enjoyed how Chris Jericho wrestled this match, I'm not really a fan of Jericho, but this proved me wrong, he is a great wrestler and an all around GREAT match up! A total 10!
World Heavyweight Championship Booker T vs Triple H
This is where Wrestlemania suffers the most! Why does Triple H always retain his title? I do not understand this, Booker T should have gotten the chance to be Champion. Luckily Triple H lost his WWE title at Unforgiven to Goldberg. But I still believe Booker T should have won this match, and since Triple H won this match, I give it a 3. Sorry Booker!
Strret Fight "20 years in the making" Hulk Hogan vs Mr. McMahon.
Again, this is where the event suffers, but not as much as Booker vs Triple H. Since Vince and Hulk are about the same, both are really slow. I hate slow matches. Both these men didn't prove anything to me at Wrestlemania. To tell you the truth I've never been a big fan of either Vince or Hogan, so I really didn't care about this match. I give it a 5.
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs The Rock
For the 3(or 4th?) Wrestlemania its Rock vs Austin again. The rock recently coming back doesn't change anything, its still rock vs austin...but this was a very good match. So I don't have much to say about it because we have all seen it before. Pretty good though, 7.
WWE Championship Match - Kurt Angle vs Brock Lesnar
A very good match & a great ending to a great Wrestlemania. The only problem with this match is Kurt Angle. Don't get me wrong, I'm a big BRock fan, but I think Kurt should have retained his title. But a very good match indeed, I give it a 8, great ender.
