MITB: Worst one I saw, a few good spots, WAY too sloppy by everyone, Benjamin made the MITB once again. CM Punk winning was a let down and he didn't do much. Christian or Kane should of won. 5.5/10
Diva Battle Royal: Good seeing the old school Divas who were in the match, typical Diva's match, not that exciting. Knew Santino was gonna win. 3/10
Jericho vs. Legends: One of the only few good matches they had. Steamboat did amazing and still has another run in him if he could. Shocked to see Jericho win. Great Chemistry. Micky Rouke did pretty good with the punches. Wish he done the Ram Jam at the end. 7.5/10
Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy: Pretty good match, better than I expected it to be. Jeff did fine, Matt did pretty good in the ring, like his new attire. The Splash on the 2 tables was ok. Ending was good enjoyed the Twist of Fate with the chair. 7.5/10
JBL vs. Rey Mysterio: Disappointing, wish JBL was able to do an actual match, hate when WWE does that. Rey winning was ok. JBL retiring was a downfall but good for him, he did everything. 4/10
Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels: Great Match, Very enjoyable and memorable. Both were on their A-Game, Thought Taker broke his neck when he went for the Clothesline to the outside and hit the cameraman. I liked the reversals and the kick out's made the crowd excited. Good win for Taker. 10/10
Edge vs. Big Show vs. John Cena: Bad crowd reaction, not a memorable match, Edge lost the belt again and it was another short reign. Big Show did ok, Cena and Edge did pretty good. A little sloppy. Kinda knew Cena would win owell. 7/10
Triple H vs. Randy Orton: Again bad crowd reaction. Not the best Main Event of Wrestlemania. Should of expected better from those 2. 6.5/10
Overall: Not the best Wrestlemania, better than Wrestlemania 23 by a landslide, Expect better at Wrestlemania 26. 6/10

Okay. So, my take on Wrestlemania? I thought it was awesome. Possibly the best WWE event I've watched in a while. Then again, I haven't seen many 'E events in a while, but I thought 'Mania was amazing, except for a few minor points.
CM Punk winning MITB? I must admit, I marked the hell out. I thought he should've done a lot more when he won it last year, and I'm SO happy that he gets another shot to do something with it.
Diva Royal? I took a bathroom break, to come back and see Santino win. Wasn't too angry at that, but wasn't happy at the same time.
Old guys: Wished Steamboat would've won it for the legends, but I'm not suprised at the outcome. Like Vega said though, I wanted to see the RAM JAM! evil
Matt vs Jeff: I liked it, and I liked the ending. Not much more to say about it.
JBL vs. The Gay Joker: Made me mad. I'm not mad with Mysterio winning, as much as I am about the way they did it. JBL deserves a better retirement than that.
Undertaker vs HBK: This match speaks for itself. Not much to say that hasn't been said.
Triple Threat: Ugh... Who would've guessed it... Another win for the almighty Cena, and another F-U on Big Show. It was boring, but probably in my opinion, because it was placed right after the 'Taker vs HBK match. Seriously, who could've followed that up? Not many people.
HHH vs Orton: Crappy ending. I expected a better ending from those two, than mounted punches into a Pedigree... I'm not so mad at HHH winning. Just the ending that made me mad.
Overall, I loved 'Mania, and can't wait to buy it on DVD.

WM25 was the worst of them all. The only match that was worth watching was the MitB( Kofi was sick, but CM Punk ******** it up), Undertaker vs HBK was amazing and Primo and Carlito vs Miz and Morrison( can't believe it was a Dark Match). Cena winning was just crap and Randy vs HHH was ok. Remember guys WWE is now PG, in other words bull c-r-a-p. Stone Cold couldn't do the middle finger to the crowd. That Sucked.

CM Punk was a decent MITB winner, still wanted Christian.
Diva Battle Royal was so ******** sloppy and no one knew what the ******** was going on.
Old Guys vs Jericho was better then I thought it was. I expected Steamboat to make that match better.
Matt vs Jeff I didn't pay attention to.
JBL vs Rey was of course disappointing, it was stupid how they didn't ring the bell in the beginning.
Undertaker vs HBK hell everyone knew this was gonna be the best match on the card! It ******** delivered! Still can't believe Taker didn't kill himself with that dive!
Triple Threat was disappointing, so slow, nothing to remember. Good to hear Basic Thuganomics again even though it was for a couple seconds.
HHH vs Orton was even MORE disappointing. They ruined it with the DQ bull s**t, the ref ruined the match, and it was slow. I think it went down hill after the RKO and Pedigree 1 minute into the match, I thought that was a great beginning! They needed no DQ though and had Orton and Triple H just beat the crap out of each other for 30 minutes and have a more epic ending then the mounted punching followed by a slow Pedigree!
They still needed the Age of Orton to begin again and have him win it. WWE just doesn't like to think outside the box for once!

The only GREAT thing that came out of this was the Taker vs HBK match. It was incredible.
Matt winning was good, and Rey winning/JBL quitting was good.
Other than that, CM Punk won MITB AGAIN??? Jericho beat the legends, the divas match was a TOTAL waste of time, Beth should have won that. Cena is champ, and HHH beat Orton. FAILFAILFAIL.

Did anyone else notice that in the Taker vs HBK match, the ref did no ring-out counts until HBK told him to?
Also, wtf was up with the Orton-Hunter match? They had a huge build-up; Orton punted Vince, had the whole Raw mid-card against him, brawled and ended up punting Shane, and then RKO'd Stephanie. They then had Hunter and Orton in a ******** awesome segment in Orton's "house", in which Orton was thrown through a window and Hunter arrested. Then they end the match with all Vince, Shane and Stephanie perfectly okay, and not even a No DQ match?
I'm also pissed off that two Face's won the Main Events, being Cena and Hunter. Seriously, stick your head out of Hunter's a** Vince, he's almost as bad as Cena. They both have no more than 5 moves, and neither of their matches were as good as Taker-HBK, which should have been the Main Event.

-Nuclear Fusion- Did anyone else notice that in the Taker vs HBK match, the ref did no ring-out counts until HBK told him to? That kinda made me think Taker was legitimately hurt after his suicide dive gone wrong. He wasn't moving and that was the first ring-out count they did.

I kinda have to agree that Orton losing was a bad idea. The story's like .. he waited for 5 years to get back at Triple H for the Evolution incident, won the Rumble this year, wreaked havoc on the McMahon family to get to Triple H ..
And STILL ended up losing. Most of the Rumble winners are supposed to go on and win the title at Wrestlemania, aren't they?
Cena, Edge and Big Show had a tough time trying to follow HBK and 'Taker. Edge I heard may be taking time off soon for his knees, so that leaves Big Show or Cena as Champion. I don't know about you, but Big Show as Champion leaves the same taste in my mouth as saying 'Khali as Champion'. Let's face facts, Cena sells. It doesn't matter if he has 5 moves in his moveset or if he's the man of 1,000 holds. Same with Triple H as a wrestler. 5 moves? Maybe a little more than that, but not much. Someone said it earlier in this thread: it's not how many moves you can do .. but how you apply them in the match. I'm just tired of hearing people s**t on Cena and Triple H for only having a few moves.

WM 25 what can I say abot this PPV? It was a pretty good PPV for what i payed for it.
Miz And Morrison Vs The Colons
Don't care really it was a good match but im not into tag matches.
Matt Vs Jeff
Wow this match was in my opinion really underrated they went out and they wrestled and really that jeff hardy spot was pretty good in my eyes but the win should have went to jeff
25 Diva Battle Royal
Satino in a dress? Kid Rock? Yeah tipical bathroom break.
Jericho Vs Legends
This was a pretty good match for what it was. they went out there and they tried there best I mean really these guys are old and steamboat still put on one hell of a show for us.
Taker Vs HBK
Wow if nothing else the show was worth it for this one match. they went out and they put on one hell of a show for the crowd with HBK ascending from "Heaven" and Undertaker rising up from "Hell" I thought this mach was amazing. I think this is possibly the greatest bout Undertaker has been in at Wrestlemania. These two really know how to ome together and deliver. and if the gods are willing we will see it agian someday.
HHH VS Orton
it was ok
Cena Vs Edge Vs Big Show
This match was good in that edge is injured and cena went out and put on the best show he knows how to put on. he goes out and delivers every night. and really wheter or not you like him he sells shirts and most fans not smarks FANS like him. he is everything wrestling is about not the skill not the mic abilty but pure unquestioned wrestling whether or not you like him he can still wrestle in my opinion and hes gonna be around for a long time so theres no reason to sit back and whine over him just watch and enjoy the show like it was meant to be a completely scripted series of events that give you something to watch for a few hours. wrestling was meant to be watched not judged and taken so serious.
so all in all it was an ok show and the taker vs hbk match made it worth my money. its worth watching if your a real wrestling fan and not just a "smark"

Sakamoto Ryuu And STILL ended up losing. Most of the Rumble winners are supposed to go on and win the title at Wrestlemania, aren't they? Well it's the 2nd straight year it doesn't go that way. Cena was the 2008 Rumble winner and didn't walk out with a championship (which is the first and ONLY time yet since his first match at WM20)

The only match I didn't like was the diva match, it just wasn't done right at all. Jeff vs matt was good, though could have been better. triple threat was ok...just don't like Cena as champ again.
Taker vs HBK was great. While I wanted Christin to win, I knew it was just too early so I'm fine with my second pick winning.
The tag match should of been on tv though.

My viewpoint might be a little different since I was there [/ego], but anyways:
Tag Team Title Match: Decent match. A lot of nearfalls, and that kept the place on their toes.
MiTB: Fairly entertaining match with some good spots; I would've shat bricks if Mark Henry had jumped off the top turnbuckle. xd
Diva Match: Nothing special, except of course "Santina" winning. A lot of people were laughing their heads off.
Extreme Rules: A lot better from Jeff than I expected. A good match overall for what it's worth.
IC Title: Disappointing. While I don't like JBL too much as a main event wrestler, he has been around for a long time and deserves a lot better for a goodbye. Mysterio as the Joker was lulzy.
Taker vs. HBK: Watch it, and you will see the best WWE match you have seen this decade. This should have been the last match. The crowd was split 50-50, and the energy there was amazing.
WHC: I got up to get a hot dog at this point. The only thing more annoying than Cena winning were the little Cena marks around me. I turned my back as soon as he got the pin.
WWE Title: Ok match. Reminded me of HHH's match at WM21 for some reason. I didn't really care who would win this match, but I was pulling for Orton a tad.

Honestly, I think the only bad part of WM25 was Kid Rock's performance. Where in the hell did he come from all of a sudden? If anyone should've performed at WM25, it should've been ACDC because they had the main theme. Hell, even Metallica would've been awesome, they coulda promoted the next Guitar Hero.

I think ACDC was asked to perform live but they didn't want to do it.
