Wrestlemania XIX

Hello and welcome to my review on Wrestlemania XIX. I use a grading system and each match receives a grade. Then to determine how the show ranks the total of the matches scores are divided by the number of matches giving the grade and a comment about whether you should buy it or not. The grading system is as follows.

Grading E- =0-6.66%
E =6.66-13.32%
E+ =13.32-19.98%
D- =19.98-26.64%
D =26.64-33.30%
D+ =33.30-39.96%
C- =39.96-46.62%
C =46.62-53.28%
C+ =53.28-59.94%
B- =59.94-66.60%
B =66.60-73.26%
B+ =73.26-79.92%
A- =79.92-86.58%
A =86.58-93.24%
A+ = 93.24-100%

Match One-Cruiserweight Title-Matt Hardy(C)Vs Rey Mysterio-This was a nice opener and it did what it was meant to do. It was a good match except it was a little bit to short, if it had got about 12 minutes or so it would have been exceptionally good. There was a little bit too much interference from Shannon Moore but that was expected and it added a little bit to this match. Hopefully these two get a rematch with maybe a ladder match or something. My rating 7.30/10.

Match Two-Handicap Match-Undertaker Vs A-Train and Big Show-Taker was putting his undefeated streak at Wrestlemania on the line and he needed a little bit of a boost so what better thing for him then to come out to his old tune "Rollin" which Limp Biskit was singing live. After getting attacked on Sunday Night Heat, Nathan Jones returned interfering in this match giving a huge spinning kick and a big boot. Taker used all his signature moves bar one in this match and it was a good show all round especially considering Show and Train aren't the greatest wrestlers but Taker made them look very good out there. My rating 7.57/10.

Match Three-Triple Threat-Womens Championship-Victoria(C)Vs Jazz Vs Trish Stratus-This was an average match with the three ladies. There were lots of high flying manuevers as well as strong power ones. There was too many pinfalls broken up by the other person rather then kick outs. There was double teaming on the face by the heels, then the heels attacking each other. The finish was alrightly made with Steven Richards trying to interfere on behalf of Victoria. This was a good addition as the first of the two triple threat matches tonight. My rating 6.54/10.

Match Four-Triple Threat-WWE Tag Team Championships-Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin(C)Vs Eddie and Chavo Guerrero Vs Rhyno and Chris Benoit-Three of these men were in the Smackdown six which is who Paul Heyman built Smackdown around late last year. The action is well paced and not to over done. Everyone did what they do best and it made it more exciting and telling what these wrestlers do. The length was perfect except it maybe should have got a little bit longer. The finish was well planned with a bit of stealing for the victory. My rating 7.80/10.

Match Five-Y2J Vs Shawn"HBK"Michaels-This was HBKs return to Wrestlemania after four and a half years away from the ring. These two have been feuding since Y2J interupted HBK in December 2002. They attacked each other on numerous occasions and they will finally settle it at Wrestlemania. HBK had his own pyros on the way to ring as well as extra fireworks high up on Safeco Field during his Muscle Pose. There were lots of damaging moves done to Michaels back and lots of high flying action from HBK and lots of innovative moves from both men. There was lots of countering in this match and a couple of finishers hit here and there as well as some being countered. The ending was fairly good as it was simple with only a roll up proving good matches don't need over the top endings. My rating 9.32/10.

Match Six-World Heavyweight Championship-HHH(C)Vs Booker T-Booker T won a 20 man Battle Royal the night after No Way Out to earn the shot at the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania XIX. For many weeks HHH taunted and layed the smack on Booker T. Then in the last week leading into Wrestlemania Booker gained a pinfall over HHH. Will Booker T be able to overcome all the odds and beat HHH and become the new World Heavyweight Champion? These two had a fairly long grueling match though there wasn't any blood it was still a great perfomance by both wrestlers in this match. There was a fair bit of interference in this match from Ric Flair but that always happens with HHH matches. Book and HHH pulled out all the tricks in the book as well as some great manuevers such as a wide range or kicks from Booker, the Indian Deathlock from HHH and the Houston Hangover as well as many more. There were quite a few attempts at hitting finishers but they got countered or kicked out of. The ending wasn't the greatest as it took a little to long to cover the fallen opponent to win. This was a great Raw Title match. My rating 8.80/10.

Match Seven-Street Fight-Vince McMahon Vs Hulk Hogan-If Hogan loses his career is over. This was twenty years in the making. It had a lot of blood from both men as they were both bleeding immensely. There was interference by "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, you'll never guess what happens in this match. Announcers got slogged with chairs, leg drops off ladders and many bumps and spots like that. Maybe not the best street fight but you had two people who are about 50 and they did very well in my books. My rating 8.14/10.

Match Eight-The Rock Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin-This is the final encounter between these two. It was their third match at Wrestlemania with their previous encounters at Wrestlemania 15 and 17 with Austin winning on both occasions. This was the second best out of them as Wrestlemania 17 was a really exceptional match. Austin didn't look there mentally or physically but he still put on an exceptional match. There was lots of mocking each other, working each other down, finisher attempts and many more things in this jamp packed match. Will Austin make it 3 for 3 against Rock at Wrestlemania or will Rock finally beat Austin 1,2,3 at Wrestlemania? My rating 8.75/10.

Match Nine-Main Event-WWE Championship-Kurt Angle(C)Vs Brock Lesnar-This was an exceptional way to end the show with this match. Two amature wrestlers going at it for the biggest title on the biggest stage of them all. There were many finishers used and countered including an amazing Shooting Star Press by Brock Lesnar. Will that be enough to capture the gold in this excellent match or will Angle prevail with his title. My rating 8.69/10.

Overall I believe this show was very good with lots of great matches on the card. Lets see how the marks go. The marks it got are 72.91/90 which is a very good score. Now when we get the percentage for this it is 81.01% which is a great mark. It is equivalent to an A-. This show was an excellent show with all the matches being very good. It also has really good extras. I believe this is a must have for your DVD collection.

It's Nice To Have Another Wrestlemania

Sure, some of the matches are lame, but that's okay. Just fast-foward through half the matches, and you've got a pretty good show. Angle Vs. Lesnar is by far the best reason to view this product. It sure was nice to have a main event with two guys who could actually wrestle for real.

almost a 2 yr copy of wm 17

angle vs brock
angle impressed me with his mess up neck he tried 2 do like 96 which was win da gold medals with a broken freakin neck n this match he tried 2 put on da best match with a broken freakin neck he was almost won but hbk vs y2j has my vote as da best match of da night this match isn't 2 far at all from a near perfect mainevent angle added a new move 2 da match which was his release german suplex 2 da turnbuckle which was a creative sight 2 witness if u watched da match and brock tried 2 do billy kidman and paul london which was ssp of da turnbuckle but sadly landing on his head but after da match was ended he was ok with a minor head injury if he did da move unharmed this would have been a better match but 4 what it was it gets ****1/4+

hbk vs y2j
this match is da showstopper hbk and y2j put on a near perfect match up great wrestling with great drama made this match that much more exciting 2 watch i would have preferred jericho 2 go over which would have made da match a little better as jericho jobs 2 almost anybody lower talented than him but it is hbk so i can't complain 2 much about da victory but da victory was brief lived as y2j got his revenge by lowing hbk after his victory was that good sportmenship o what that was 1 of my fav y2j moments y2j was da mvp of raw carrying almost any1 like jeff hardy or goldberg 2 good matches n 2003 this match was his breakout match of da year with hbk ****1/2
