Wrestlemania 23 was indeed a strong Wrestlemania. It show case what Wrestlemania is suppose to be. It contain some of the most amazing matches in wrestling history as well as good entertainment. They call Wrestlemania the show case of the immortals and this Wrestlemania actually shows it 1.Randy Orton vs Edge vs Mr.Kennedy vs CM PUNK vs King Booker vs Finlay vs Matt Hardy Vs Jeff Hardy Money in the bank Ladder Match. Now this was a strong opening match and it thrills the fans from start to finish and it gave us a lot of high spots that you would have to watch again Rating: 8 out of 102.Kane vs The Great Khali. This match was pretty much a bored mess and more of a excuse to get a drink because this match is not worth your timeRating: 2 out of 103.MVP: Montel Vontavious Porter vs Chris Benoit for the WWE United States Championship.Watching this match you see what a real match is suppose to be MVP's entrance was pretty cool as he came out with Cheerleaders for his gimmick and both men gave us a well thought out fightRating: 8 out of 104.The Undertaker vs Batista for the World Heavyweight Championship This is my personal favorite match of the night since The Undertaker is my favorite wrestler. Batista can work a good match if given the right opponent. They gave us a heck of a match and thrill us having us on the edge of our seats thinking that Batista had the Undertaker right where he wanted him and The Undertaker show why he's the Phenom of the WWE This is just a excellent wrestling match and you got to clap for both men after a battle they hadRating: 9 out of 105.The ECW Originals (Rob Van Dam, Tommy Dreamer, Sabu, and The Sandman) vs The New Breed (Elijah Burke,Marcus Cor Von, Matt Striker, and Kevin Thorn with Ariel) This feud was between the legends of ECW against the New Breed honestly this match was up against the last match consider how drain the fans were after the title match so honest this match just was decent at bestRating: 7 out of 106. Bobby Lashley (with Donald Trump) vs Umaga (with Mr.McMahon and Armando Alejandro Estrada) Hair Vs Hair Battle of the Billionaires with Stone Cold Steve Austin as Special Guest Referee. This was a good match overall plus it was funny what happened to the one who got his head shaved of their hair but I will leave that mystery to you. It just a entertaining match and have some good moments tooRating: 9 out of 107.Ashley vs Melina Lumberjill Match for the WWE Women's Championship now this match was just for show looking back on it but it was nice to see all the Divas out thereRating: 4 out of 108. John Cena vs Shawn Michaels for the WWE Championship. John Cena's entrance with the Ford Mustang since they were in the Ford Field that night was really cool and he crash right into glass to enter the arenaAnd the interesting thing about this match they were the World Tag Team Champions going into it. Never the less they work a very good main event that awarded the fans who brought tickets and order it on Pay Per View and the climax of the match is pretty insaneRating: 8 out of 10Overall this Wrestlemania was pretty good it was full of thrills and feature many legends it just shows that this is how you are suppose to have a wrestling show I give WWE Wrestlemania 23 an 9 out of 10

Well I must say that this years WrestleMania has been one of the better ones. It definitely beat both the past 2 WrestleManias 21 and 22.Money in the Bank Ladder Match - CM Punk vs Edge vs Jeff Hardy vs Finlay vs Matt Hardy vs Mr Kennedy vs King Booker vs Randy Orton This years money in the bank ladder match featured some of the top superstars from WWE and one from ECW. In the end Jeff Hardy took himself and Edge out of the match after falling on top of Edge through a ladder In the end it was only Finally, CM Punk and Mr Kennedy left standing. Kennedy rolls all over the little bastard after Finlay's little bastard tried to win the match for Finally. CM Punk knocks Kennedy off and right when he is going to grab the briefcase he is knocked out by Kennedy. Kennedy picks up the win after.Kane vs the Great Khali Nothing much here then 2 giants slugging it out. Kane body slams Khali though shades of Hogan and Andre. Khali wins after a double choke-slam.Chris Beniot vs MVP (United States Championship) Well there are 2 ways to look at this if you are not a fan of technical wrestling this match will put you to sleep thats the way to put it. MVP had an outstanding WrestleMania performance and he will only get better. Benoit retains not by submission but with the Diving Headbutt.Batista vs The Undertaker (World Heavyweight Championship) My god this was the match of the night in my opinion but it did not make sense why it was so low on the card this should have been the second to last match at least. Well both men put on a really good performance, Batista dominated mostly throughout the match even power slamming Undertaker through a table. Undertaker came back though and hit a last ride on Batista. Batista kicked out then hit a Batista Bomb on the Undertaker. But Undertaker kicked out! Undertaker then hits the Tombstone Piledriver and wins the World title. Winner and new champ The Undertaker.ECW Originals vs the New Breed Well after the Taker Batista match this match did not deserve to be higher then that and like all ECW match's this one sucked. Originals win after RVD hit a frog splash on Matt Striker.Bobby Lashly vs Umaga with Stone Cold as Referee OK battle of the billionaires had one major problem with the story Donald Trump has little hair as it is and I don't think he would agree to do something (since WWE is pre determined) to lose his hair. Well Stone Cold made this match thats why a lot of wrestling fans watched it, others did because Trump was on it. Lashly wins after Stone Cold stuns Umaga then Lashly hits a spear the pin Umaga. After Lashly, Trump and Stone Cold shave Mcmahons head.Ashley vs Melina (Womens Championship) OK first of all can anyone explain why this out of all things was the 2nd highest match on the card? Because I sure don't know why. The whole match was a waste of time point made. Melina retains her title when she pins Ashley.HBK vs John Cena (WWE Championship) Main events at Wrestlemaina are always special but as a fan I got to say i am disappointed that HBK did not walk out as champion. Very physical match HBK out wrestles Cena for the first half of the match until he cracks his head open on the ring post. Cena then dominates HBK up until HBK pile-drives Cenas head on the ring steps busting him open. Both men hit their finishers the FU, Sweet Chin Music and the STFU but neither can seem to win. Then Cena traps HBK in the STFU one more time forcing him to tap. Winner and still champion John Cena.Well the main event outcome was the same as last years which I think why people are not happy with it.Still a Great WrestleMania if you were not able to catch it live or on Pay Per View when it comes out on DVD go buy it as soon as you can.Overall Grade A-

You know, every once in a while you get that one Wrestling event that beats everything you have seen in the past few years. I mean, Wrestlemania 21 was OK, Wrestlemania 22 was just not up to Wrestlemania standards, and then Wrestlemania 23 came along from Ford Field Detroit. I had my reservations about it. First off, half of the matches on the card did not have good enough build up to them or not a good enough story behind them. However the show was opened with an amazing Money in the Bank match, most notably Jeff Hardys jump off the ladder onto Edge lying on the ladder outside the ring, simply amazing. Khali vs. Kane was everything we expected it to be- rubbish! Then there was a wildcard match that really surprised me. The US title match between Benoit and MVP was simply brilliant for good technical wrestling and applauds to MVP for one brilliant performance. And then there was the World Heavyweight Championship match. This was another match i did not have high expectations for, generally because i'm not a huge fan of the Undertaker but we all new he was going to win it. However i have never been more glad to be proved wrong. The match was an incredible roller coaster ride. And i really have to hand it to Batista for one hell of a show and watch out for his powerslam through the announcers table. Sadly that will be the last time the Animal holds the title, but you've really gotta give it up for him!I'll keep my review of the next match short and sweet, ECW originals Vs The New Breed. Again, rubbish!And then the Battle of the Billionaires. Sadly this match was the one that i was most excited for and didn't quite live up to the hype in my view, but still awesome all the same with a few twists that not even i expected.The Lumberjill match for the Womens title was great on the eyes but sadly not long enough, but oh well.Then my biggest surprise of the evening in the Main Event. Yerse i am one of those weird John Cena fans and not even i know why i am, i just like him. Anyway, this match again i didn't feel had enough build up or hype to it even though there was a fairly good story behind it. First off, HBK's entrance was awesome, watch out for it, and John Cena's entrance was simply brilliant. The match itself had me on the edge of my seat cos i really had no idea who was gunna win it, and it was just brilliant, i have never seen Cena and Shawn wrestle so well and this one was truly a matter of heart and wills and who wanted to win it most and i am glad to say that The Champ is still here!So really overall, one of the best Wrestlemania's in recent memory and you really must look out for the amazing entrance stage and the fireworks and screen effects and light and sound for the entrances, truly spectacular. Really, you have to see this Wrestlemania, simply amazing!

This year's mania came from Detroit. To recap (heavy spoilers):Money In The Bank: Arguably the best match of the night. All 8 superstars gave it their all, and Mr. Kennedy emerged as the winner.Ashley vs. Melina (Women's championship): The shortest match of the night, not half bad. Melina retains her title.MVP vs. Chris Benoit (United States Championship): A good match with technical maneuvers involved. One of the better matches of the night, Benoit also retains his belt.Kane vs. The Great Khali: Didn't really expect much out of this one, just 2 big guys going at it. Homage to Wrestlemania III with Kane body slamming Khali, even though Khali ended up winning.ECW Originals vs. The New Breed: Not bad, but could've been better. The Originals take the win.The much ballyhooed Battle Of The Billionaires. Vince McMahon's representative, the Intercontinental champion Umaga, took on ECW champion Bobby Lashley, with Stone Cold as the guest referee. Shane McMahon tried to pull a fast one by posing as ref, but it didn't work. McMahon loses his hair. For all the hype, it was half decent.Undertaker vs. Batista (World Heavyweight Championship): Not bad, it was a relief to see Taker win the world heavyweight championship and stay undefeated for at least 1 more year at Wrestlemania.Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena (WWE Championship): One of the best matches of the night, HBK made Cena work. Terrible ending, though, with HBK not only losing, but tapping out to the STFU. Shawn deserves better.Overall 8/10.
