Stampsfightclub Orlando Jordan vs Chris Benoit (US title)A remarkable opening and easily the quickest match you will ever see and it was actually rather funny to. 8/10Matt Hardy vs EdgeThe build up to this was very good with the real life occurrences between Lita and Edge and we see the animosity all the way through a, once more, very short encounter. Thankfully the cage match at Unforgiven was great for retribution 8/10Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero This ladder match for the custody of Eddie's "biological" son had some great swings and moves, particularly from the late Guerrero who always shone as a heel. Ending was obvious though 8/10Eugene vs Kurt AngleSeeing wrestlers like Eugene and Hornswoggle makes me despise the company today and this is why. Eugene uses no original move and thankfully Angle shows why he is the best wrestler, and performer, of all time. 6/10Undertaker vs Randy OrtonWrestlemania rematch was all guns blazing as Orton tried to scamper numerous times and the Undertaker is never, in his whole career, boring. The ending was quite shocking to 8/10Batista vs JBL (No holds barred world title match)Brutal fist fights and a powerbomb of a climax but this was surprisingly exceptionally short and rather forgettable. 5/10John Cena vs Chris JerichoThis match has the most ridiculous outcome imaginable. Jericho, in arguably his most dominant performance in his career, is in cruise control and high flying entertaining action. Cena seriously hits about 3 big moves, this is all Y2J. Great atmosphere here as half the crowd chant "Let's go Cena" then the others chant "Let's go Jericho" 8/10Hulk Hogan vs Shawn MichaelsA reasonable climax. Given the build up and terms and everything involved it boiled down to some risky moments involving chairs, low blows etc. Hogan bleeds profusely pretty much all the way through. There was only ever going to be one ending. 7/10A very good consistent PPV with many surprises, none bigger than the first match but certainly worth checking out.
Antony Wingate I really liked this PPV.Beniot vs Orlando Jordan- U.S championship No one liked the match because it was only 45 seconds. Get the hell over. Its being realistic. Its just silly and fake if every match is made out nicely. Just the right time. Your a idiot if you have a problem with this match. That shows that any thing can happen, Just like in real life. Isted of bitching about how short it was, Just larf and say 'wow he kicked his ass so fast' 5/10Edge vs Matt Hardy I LOVED this match, It showed how to men just HATED EACH OTHER. They didn't do in fancy wrestling, As soon as the match started they just started punching each other. I thought it was really cool. I watched in horror as they continued punching and punching. Soon one of them was just on the mat. The other just keeped kicking him in the head. It was a raw brutal fist fight. Nothing more, nothing less. At the end one wrestling was on his knees covered in blood. The other continued to larf and kick his bloody head. It was awesome. Most underrated match ever. Short but brutal. 10/10Rey Mysterio vs Eddie Guerrero Another example why WWE story lines are silly. But i got over that. The fight was over who was going to be a father of eddies child or something. It was a really good match with a lot of cool stunts from the ladder. There were points when i thought it was going to end, but the match went on. I was thinking GO REY GO REY GO REY!!. It was really close and a good ending. GREAT MATCH. 8/10Kurt Angle vs Eugene I love Kurt Angle. And i love seeing his great ring work. Eugenes gimmick is kind of silly. Hes a mildly retarded wrestler.. And there only so much you can do with him. But the match was kind of funny. 7/10 :D (lol what kinda of ass hole wrestler like Kurt angle would sit there beating up a metaly challenged person) :PRandy Orton vs Undertaker A pretty entertaining match between dead man and Orton. It was injoyeble.7/10John Cena vs Chris Jericho It was a good match. But... I don't no. I don't care for these wrestler to much. I don't hate them. Im just not there NO1 fan. But it was a good match. Very long, Close, Entertaining. Prehapes i didn't think it was the great because it was the 2nd long single match in a row? 7/10JBL vs Batista It was a nice match to watch. Short, But good, Batista went hard out. Throw him into the crowd. Etc 7/10Hulk Hogan vs HBK I really wanted to know who was going to win. My bet was that hogan was going to win. I loved the backstage promo. When HBK is acting like hogan. Making fun of him 10/10. The match it self was good. Though the end was stupid. The fans went nuts and thats what made the match great. I have mixed feeling about the winner. Im not sure what to think.Overall. Would i bye this PPV? Yea.. i would. It was a good PPV.
therock04 SPOILERSJust another average pay per view. when the wold champs are not in the main event you know that the things go wrong.next up the recap of the matches:Chris Benoit vs Orlando Jordan(c) -US Title match Benoit wins in 30 seconds with the Crippler Cross Face, yep the second WWE most important ppv have a 30 seconds squash match, anyway a Huge pop for Benoit rating 2/5, crowd reaction:5/5 Edge vs Matt Hardy -Single Match Disappointing match. This match had a lot of expectation due the return of Matt Hardy, the match begun and they just throw punchs and later edge wins via TKO. I Felt very disappointed rating 1/5Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Misterio -Ladder Match Very good match, finally a very good match. This is undoubtedly the match of the night but the storyline is so pathetic and the ending is so bad. Rey wins with the help of Eddie's wife. rating 4.5/5Kurt Angle vs Eugene -Single Match Wow two squash in one night, Angle wins with the Angle Lock and a very impressive pop for Angle rating 2/5, crowd reaction 5/5. Randy Orton vs Undertaker -Single Match Another good match between Orton and Mr.Callaway ,Orton wins with a RKO after some distraction. After the match, the guy who distracted Taker revealed himself as Bob Orton Jr. Does anyone Care???? rating 3.5/5John Cena(c) vs Chris Jericho -wwe Championship Like every Cena's match the opponent take the offensive side the 80% of the time and Cena wins with the FU, anyway the crowd was very involved in the match rating 3.5/5JBL vs Batista(c) -WHC Championship Another very short match, like the Edge-Matt Match they brawl the 100% of the time, but the ending is impressive ,Batista Connects the mighty Batista Bomb and connects another one in the ring steps, sweet!! 3.5/5Hogan vs HBK -Single match Unsurprisely HBK carries the 90% of the match in the end HBK connects the Diving Elbow and the sweet Chin Music and go for the pin butt he Hulkster kicks out and begin to hulk up and like always he is unbeatable and wins with the "devastating" leg drop, after the match another huge pop rating 4/5 crowd reaction 6/5
Astorrefb2 Folks i got to say the WWE finally gave us a show that was just wonderful. SInce Ecw One NIght Stand. SUmmerslam the Show was good Like the First match I say 30 Seconds Long Benoit wins the US Belt Finally someone good has it. And Even though it was 30 seconds it was still fun to watch because Benoit won. Next Edge and Hardy now with all the hype this match had it was a slight Disappointment how Edge won and so quickly . But the Spear through the ring ropes on to Hardy and straight to the floor was a keeper spot to say the least. Now the Match of the Night EDDIE VS> Rey Ladder. OOO MY lord this match was off the hook. And best the Feud should be over now as Rey won. Then a Match that was great because EUGENE got him Self BOOOED OUT OF THE Stadium. Angle vs. Eugene. I say it was a good match but the best part was the fact ANgle was loved in the DC and Eugene was Booed right out there. Orton vs. Taker NOw this proves one thing Taker is better with the quicker agile Atheletes more then the big slow guys. These two made each other look good on the match. Orton sadly won . but still have to say great generic match. Y2J and Cena's WWE title Match. I will say it finally Cena can perform a good match. If IF he has someone like Y2J or HBK or Angle with him. He needs someone really superior to his wrestling skill to work with to make it a good match. But this was a great wwe title match sadly Y2J lost.. Batista vs. JBL. To short But had a great powerbomb and I got some money from JBL. Last HBK vs. HOgan the Icon vs. Legend. Well No Bret hart thank god. But this match had all you needed. SHarpshooter Sweet Chin Music. Hulk up and Leg Drop and finally the Hand Shake. THis match was probably a great for Hogan as Hogan matches go.So all in all this Show Live was GREAT
