This was another solid WrestleMania. There is some quality stuff on here for sure, and quite an electric crowd.Tag Team Championship Match: The Big Show and Kane (c) vs. Carlito and Chris Masters - A decidedly average opener. Nothing too bad, but nothing notable, either. Show and Kane retain the titles after Kane Chokeslammed Carlito. RATING: **1/2Money In The Bank Ladder Match: Rob Van Dam vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Finlay vs. Matt Hardy vs. Bobby Lashley vs. Ric Flair - Not as good as the first MITB match, but still a lot of fun. There are plenty of crazy spots throughout, and all 6 men had some stand-out moments. Rob Van Dam wins the briefcase. RATING: ***3/4United States Championship Match: Chris Benoit vs. JBL - It was alright, but it was too slow for my liking. I've seen better from Benoit, but this isn't too bad by JBL's standards. JBL wins the Championship by grabbing the rope. RATING: **3/4Hardcore Match: Edge vs. Mick Foley - "Hardcore" indeed. This was one crazy, brutal match. These two simply tore each other apart. Edge showed that he belonged in this type of environment. Edge wins by unforgettably spearing Foley through the flaming table. RATING: **** Booker T vs. The Boogeyman - Garbage. Pure Garbage. All I can say. RATING: DUDCasket Match: The Undertaker vs. Mark Henry - This match wasn't bad, but it wasn't good, either. This was a typical big man match. Nobody really believed that Mark Henry could end the streak. The Undertaker remains undefeated. RATING: **1/4No Holds Barred Match: Shawn Michaels vs. Vince McMahon - Nothing special wrestling-wise, but great as pure entertainment. It's so much fun to see Mr. McMahon get what he deserves. Shawn Michaels finishes him off with a Superkick. RATING: ***1/2Triple Threat Match for the World Heavyweight Championship: Kurt Angle (c) vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Randy Orton - This was a great triple threat match. The action was fast from bell to bell and Rey's title win was memorable. The problem is that it is too short. Rey Mysterio wins the title with a Hurricanerana. RATING: ***3/4WWE Championship Match: John Cena (c) vs. Triple H - A great main event with an epic feel to it. It may be remembered for the crowd booing the heck out of Cena, but these two managed to put on an exciting wrestling contest. John Cena retains with the STF. RATING: ****Boogeyman vs. Booker aside, this was a fun show from top to bottom, and well worth checking out.RATING: B

Great Wrestlemania. According to me, these are the ratings:1) Kane & Big Show vs Carlio & Chris Masters - 5/10 (An okay opening for Wrestlemania) 2) Ladder Match - 8/10 (Good match) 3) Hall of Fame Seg. - 9/10 (R.I.P. Eddie) 4) Benoit vs JBL - 5/10 (So-so match) 5) Edge vs Foley - 6.5/10 (Foley tried his best. That makes it good) 6) Booker vs Boogeyman - 1.5/10 (Sucked and WWE, you can do better than this kind of match.) 7) Trish vs Mickie - 7.5/10 (A very good women's championship match.) 8) Undertaker vs Henry - 10/10 (Taker shows everyone again, what he's made of. Greatest match of the night!!!) 9) HBK vs Vince - 9.5/10 (Awesome match. HBK ended it well.) 10) Angle vs Mysterio vs RKO - 9/10 (Great match. Rey turned out to be the champ. Great Job) 11) Cena vs HHH - 8.5/10 (Great match. Cena retains his championship)

I thought Wrestlemania 22 was the greatest PPV ever in my opinion.World Tag Team Championship:Kane/Big Show(c) def. Carlito/Masters when Kane pinned Carlito. This was a great Tag Team Championship match, Carlito even got cheered, Carlito & Masters had this won until a miscue happened leading to a Kane & Big Show win, a good match! Rating:10/10 Grade:AMITBII:RVD def. Ric Flair, IC Champion Shelton Benjamen, Bobby Lashley, Finlay & Matt Hardy. This was a show stealer, a lot better than last year's, Rob Van Dam got the much deserved win, all 6 stars did well, my favorite part was when Shelton Benjamen leapfrogged onto the Ladder like Spiderman, maybe the Show Stealer! Rating:10/10 Grade:SUS Championship:JBL def. Chris Benoit(c) to win the title. This was a fairly good match, they both had a good one with JBL getting the win and the gold. Rating:10/10 Grade:AHardcore Match:Edge defeated Mick Foley. Both of these guys stole the show in this match, a definite Show-Stealer here, Edge got the much deserved victory and remained unbeaten, my favorite part was when Edge speared Foley through the burning Table, they out ECW'ed ECW, good job guys! Rating:10/10 Grade:SBoogeyman def. Booker T(& Sharmell) when Boogeyman pinned Booker T. Booker T actually wrestled, but Boogeyman kissed Sharmell with the Worms in his mouth and made Sharmell run away which was the best part of the match, Boogeyman is cool & hilarious, Boogey won his 1st Wrestlemania, a good match. Rating:10/10 Grade:AWomen's Championship:Mickie James def. Trish Stratus(c) to win the title. Greatest Women's Championship ever in my opinion, a definite Showstealer, with my favorite Psychotic Diva getting the win to end Trish's 15-month run, one of those cases where the heel gets cheered and the face booed, Mickie is my favorite, but I love her the best and does her best work as a heel, good job Mickie! Rating:10/10 Grade:SCasket Match:Undertaker def. Mark Henry to go to 14-0. Undertaker won to go to 14-0, but not without a fight, Undertaker had his toughest match ever, Mark Henry carried Undertaker in this, despite not winning, I gotta give Henry pops for a valiant effort! Rating:10/10 Grade:A+No Holds Barred:Shawn Michaels def. Vince McMahon. This was a show stealer here, as much as I hate him, Vince McMahon did awesome in this match and carried Shawn Michaels, great job guys! Rating:10/10 Grade:SWorld Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match:Rey Mysterio defeated Kurt Angle(c) & Randy Orton to win the title when he pinned Randy Orton. A Show Stealer, The Greatest Main Event ever, all three gave their best efforts, but in the end, it was Rey Mysterio pinning Randy Orton get the much deserved victory and the title, and Kurt Angle was not even involved in the decision, good job all 3! Rating:10/10 Grade:SPlayboy Pillow Fight:Torrie Wilson def. Candice Michelle. This was a great match, but probably the weakest of all 11, Torrie Wilson acted like the Torrie Wilson of old & the Torrie Wilson that was on SMACKDOWN! when she pinned Candice to get the much deserved win and snapped her 11-Month losing streak and stay unbeaten at Wrestlemanias, good job Torrie! Rating:10/10 Grade:SWWE Championship:John Cena def. Triple H. This was the other situation when the face was booed and the heel was cheered, this was by far John Cena's toughest win ever, and he was the big underdog, many times, Triple H had it won, and looked like should have won, Triple H not only carried this match, but he also Carried John Cena as well, Good Job Triple H, a show-stealer here! Rating:10/10 Grade:SOverall, I thought this was the greatest Pay-Per-View ever!Overall Rating:10/10 Overall Grade:SMy Wrestlemania 22 MVP:Triple H
