@austinwwe619 you have no idea how to rate a match, ecw originals vs new breed 3 stars are you serious, that match barely lasted like 3 minutes and didnt achieve anything, a 3 star match is usually like 10 to 15 minutes of pure wrestling. a 4 star match is 20 minutes and up, and 5 star match can range anywhere 20 minutes and up of great wrestling. wow you cant rate for shit and the hair vs hair match was boring as hell

[austinwwe619]

@TheBrandonLangston Now, its how --> I <-- want to rate so its none of your concern.

[TheReviewingClassic]

WM23 Was Great

WM24 Was Amazing

Money In The Bank ****1/4

Kane vs The Great Khali **1/2

Chris Benoit vs MVP ***1/4

Batista vs Undertaker ****

The ECW Originals vs The New Breed **1/2

Bobby Lashley vs Umaga ***1/4

Melina vs Ashley DUD

John Cena vs Shawn Michaels ****1/4

[GayisMusofShea]

Batista vs Taker should have had a bit more, didn't think it would be done with 1 Tombstone, but I would give it 3.25 stars either way.

[xNoSc0p3dx200]

wrestlemania 24 was good but this was the last great one until the wwe went into the toilet

[SQ1Fan]

Here's why it gets hated on:

-Taker winning the Rumble but not being in the "main event"(WWE's bias towards Raw continues), as well as Taker's opponent

-SuperCena in the main event AGAIN(good match though thanks to HBK, but still)

-8 guys in MITB instead of 6

-Awful women's match, and worse card placement

-Too much focus on Trump/McMahon

-Khali/Kane

If not for the Benoit/MVP match and maybe the main event, this could easily be the worst Mania in the 2000s. 7/10 at best

[zontonerwwe9]

@SQ1Fan this was one of the worst wrestlemanias and this dumbass gave it a 8.25/10 lol.to me it gets about 5.5/10,6 at best.im so pissed off cause i had spent my money on this shit.

[MrMiddletonII]

wrestlemania20 and up are all shitty...thats sad been a wrestling fan bout 30 yrs now

[Trademark629]

@MrMiddletonII how the fuck do you figure that ur gonna tell me that WM 24 was a shitty show that was easily one of the best Manias of all time (26 as well but I know a lot of people disagree about that one so I won't use that as an example)

[MrMiddletonII]

@Trademark629 like i said from wm20 and up all were shitty.

[MrMiddletonII]

@Trademark629 if u dnt shut tha fuck up,like i said muthafucka they were shitty jus like yo bitch ass,ho

[MrMiddletonII]

@Trademark629 how the fuck ur monkey ass using just wm24,if ur ass can read i said "all" u dumb fuck,shut ur lil young ass up

[lilboiiswaqqs13]

@MrMiddletonII wrestlemania 23,24,25 and 26 were all very good wrestlemania epacially 23 and 24

[xCeRTiFiieDx]

@MrMiddletonII Are You Nuts? Every Wrestlemania Before 17 Sucked, Not 1 Bad Mania After 17, So You Have No Clue What ur saying.

[MrMiddletonII]

@xCeRTiFiieDx you must be a kid???

[MrMiddletonII]

@xCeRTiFiieDx you must be a kid,then???

[xCeRTiFiieDx]

@MrMiddletonII Ima kid because I Appreciate Todays Era Of Wrestling?

The 80s&70s Were SO BORING, Not One Exciting Match. Execept for a few. Wake Up Old Man.

[MrMiddletonII]

@xCeRTiFiieDx who da fuck said anything about the 70s or 80s,numb nuts...

[y2jtakerfan4ever]

batista and undertaker was best

[EZW334]

becase of a fan ran into the ring makes John Cena vs. Shawn Michaels really good

[jsmeza2o]

i say cena vs hbk stole the show

[mricw1]

@jsmeza2o Actually, Batista vs. The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship stole the show.

[jjarvicious]

@jsmeza2o it didnt hav 2 steal tha show, it wuz already da main event! its supposed 2 b da best match! lol

[ECW2006]

I liked WrestleMania 23. The only gripe that I have with it was that the Undertaker/Batista match wasn't the main event, despite Taker winning the Royal Rumble.

[WadaTrey]

Money in the Bank Ladder match: Jeff Hardy vs. King Booker vs. Finlay vs. CM Punk vs. Mr. Kennedy vs. Matt Hardy vs. Randy Orton vs. Edge ****

The Great Khali vs. Kane *

United States Championship: Chris Benoit(c) vs. MVP ** 3/4

World Heavyweight Championship: Batista(c) vs. Undertaker ***

The ECW Originals vs. The New Breed **

Umaga w/ Vince McMahon vs. Bobby Lashley w/ Donald Trump *1/2 Womens Championship: Melina(c) vs. Ashley SHIT!

WWE Championship: John Cena vs. Shawn Michaels ****1/4

[WadaTrey]

you sir i am believeing to be a mark... Ive been looking at your wrestlemania Reviews lately.. the problem is your not looking at the build up on alot of these PPV's such as the old ones as some of them are very good and your shitin all over them.. and YOU OVERRATED THE SHIT out of this Wrestlemania... This wretlemania was very bad in my opinion..

[WWETNAmonkey]

@OriginalsRULEV2 ARE U DUMB!!!! U CANT RATE FOR SHIT!!!! MITB *****!!!! The world title matches *****!!! WTF!!! ARE U RETARDED!!!

[Trademark629]

You know something, that is a great idea! Imagine this Wrestlemania......no Kane/Khali. A six man Money in the Bank, Edge vs. Randy Orton (a match people have been BEGGING to see FOREVER!!!), and an extreme rules tag team match, to go along with the two great title matches. All of a sudden this Wrestlemania could be considered a top Mania.

[MrShanetaylor]

can u do a backlash 2004 review

[herd4344]

@Trademark629

I was there live and it was alot louder than what came off on dvd. Half the stadium went to the bathroom during the Womens and ecw matches is probably why that wasn't very loud. When Taker got the pin it was the loudest thing i've ever heard live. Pretty cool atmosphere overall

[pkelly345]

great mania thta many expected to be pretty damn bad like bfg 07 also this is a year imo that had the best money in the bank

[civilwarfare101]

docpepperclassic = EXTREMELY EXTREMELY underrated

[Trademark629]

spread the word

[thequipper89]

and just in case you dont believe how good cena vs. micheals was, i was in the nosebleed section to where they were dots and still watched the postage stamp sized ring for that match, the rest i watched the titantron

[thequipper89]

and the lumberjill match ended really soon, no lumberjill action at all, lasted like 3 minutes

[thequipper89]

i was one of the over 93000 fans in attendance that night, i went to get sodas during MVP vs. Benoit, it was over by the time i got back. And the dark match before the tapings was ok too, i think it was flair and carlito vs. chavo and gregory helms in a tag team lumberjack match.

[Trademark629]

No offense but I really thought the crowd as a whole was not good. They were loud for Money in the Bank, vocal in parts for Batista/Taker, and were quiet for everything else. Except for the main event, which they tried their best to succeed in ruining by booing the whole time.

[thequipper89]

yeah, detroit is a heel dominent city, they always cheer for heels and boo for faces, especially cena, cena is not a popular guy in detroit

[ThePK619]

@Trademark629 DONT forgot about the guy who ran in the match in the cena vs HBK

[Freakzilla87]

mania 23 was a great show, i don't know why it gets alot of hate

[michaelpisciuneri]

@Freakzilla87 i reckon its cause cena beat shawn by makin him tap out and noone wanted him to win
