Summary: A True Wrestlemania
Review: It is the greatest spectacle in sports entertainment. It happens on the grandest stage of them all. Wrestlemania is indeed the pinnacle of sports entertainment, delivering some of the greatest wrestling moments that will live forever.

Wrestlemania 17 will live forever, and is perhaps the greatest Wrestlemania of them all. The card is so strong that it is hard to argue to deny this. There were 5*+ matches at Wrestlemania 17. Seriously, five superb matches! Take a look:
1. Benoit/Angle
2. TLCII Hardy Boyz/Edge,Christian/Dudley Boyz
3. Shane/Vince McMahon Street Fight
4. Triple H/Undertaker
5. The Rock/Stone Cold

Summary: WrestlemaniaX7-The Greatest Wrestlemania Ever!
Review: I cannot understand the price for Wrestlemaina Dvd's. The are way over priced, and somedays you can get a real good deal on them but better snatch them while you can get it. The only reason why I want to see the dvd is because Motorhead is performing. Other then that, it looks like a regular card.

Review: Intercontinental Title
Chris Jericho vs. William Regal
Great way to heat up the crowd. Fast pace. Good match.

APA & Tazz vs. RTC
Again, fast pace and the crowd was into it. Just the right time too.

Hardcore Title
Raven vs. Big Show vs. Kane
Wow! They fought everywhere and there were a lot of great bumps taken by all 3. Ballsy performance by Raven. Great ending.

European Title
Test vs. Eddie Guerrero
Surprise match of the night. Pretty good technical match. I always felt Test was a bit underrated.

Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit
Amazing! Just the first of many, many classic battles between these men. No matter how many times they wrestle it's ALWAYS a 4 star match.

Women's Title
Ivory vs. Chyna
A squash but a rather entertaining one. Especially considering Chyna's in it.

Street Fight
Vince McMahon vs. Shane McMahon with Mick Foley as special ref
Shane O'Mac is the man! Great story, action, and even drama. Crowd reaction is priceless.

TLC II Tag Team Title
Dudley Boyz vs. Edge & Christian vs. Hardy Boyz
Even better than the first one. Spectacular performances by everyone involved.

Gimmick Battle Royal
The best part was seeing who was in it. Otherwise kinda crappy.

Undertaker vs. Triple H
What a brawl! Much anticipated match since these two never wrestled on ppv before this. Great match.

WWF Championship
The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin
What else can you say?! The second best WM main event of all time. So much intesity and drama between these guys. This is what you expect from 2 of the greatest ever.

Summary: Greatest Event in the History of WWE
Review: Perennial fan favorite Stone Cold shocked the sports-entertainment world at WrestleMania X-Seven when he accepted the help of his long time rival Mr. McMahon. The Chairman's interference aided in Stone Cold defeating The rock for the WWE Championship inside a packed Houston Astrodome.

Chyna was indestructable in the women's division. She faced Ivory at WrestleMania X-Seven and finished her off in short order with a powerbomb and a gorilla press slam. Chyna held the championship until she left WWE at which point there was a six-way match to determine a new champion.

Summary: Still stands as the best ever wrestlmania....
Review: I think that now, four years later, the only wrestlmania that has come the closest to this WM is #19 and it wasn't nearly as exciting as this one. But for those of you who think that this ppv was only good for the TLC match and the Main event, believe me, there are a lot of other matches worth seeing.....

Right To Censor vs. Tazz and the APA: Nowadays non of these guys are wrestling anymore except Bradshaw and Steven Richards. This match was good and the crowd was well into the APA's corner since they were from Texas. Come back to wrestling Tazz! APA and Tazz win an okay match. 7.5/10

Chyna vs. Ivory: I think if you compare Batista to Shannon Moore nowadays you will know what happened in this match [No offense to shannon moore.] Not that good and Chyna wins. 7/10

Chris Jericho vs. William Regal - IC title match: Better than it looks on paper. Though it wasnt outstanding it did prove that they could wrestle together. Jericho wins and keeps his IC title for another month. Decent match. 7/10

Raven vs. Kane vs. Big Show - Hardcore Title Match: Wow, very good and very brutal. They fight inside and outside the ring and Kane and Big Show even knock each other through a wall. Raven gets thrown through a glass window. Tables were broken and guys were bleeding. Kane wins to become new champ. 8.5/10 [First great match of the night.]

Test vs. Eddie Guerrero - European title: Test dominated the entire time but the Radicalz come down [Perry Saturn and Dean Malenko] and help Eddie win to become the new champ. 7.5/10
So far about 75% of the titles have changed hands.

Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit: Have you seen their epic Royal Rumble 03 match? If so this is just like it, though slower paced in some spots, not that that is a bad thing. Incredible chain wrestling by both men and it even became one of the top ten best matches at a WM of all time. Kurt wins after rolling up Benoit and grabbing the tights. Really good match. 8.5/10 [Those of you who dont like actual wrestling as much might want to save this match after you've seen the street fights.]

Shane McMahon vs. Vince McMahon - Steet Fight: Think of it as a big soap opera [which it is] combined with Mick Foley and a catfight. Huge amounts of trash cans were used in this one. Shane even tries to give an elbow drop onto an announce table but misses after Stephanie McMahon pulls her father out of the way. Trish then slaps Vince and attacks stephanie. Vice attacks Foley, then Linda McMahon attacks Vince. Shane gives the Van Terminator to Vince to get the win. A good fight. 9/10

The Dudley Boyz vs. The Hardy Boyz vs. E and C - TLC 2: I dont agree with other reviewers. I think it was just as good as the first TLC match. Lots more interference on the outside on behalf of each team. Including Spike throwing himself and Christian through a table, Rhyno throwing Bubba Ray Dudley and Matt Hardy through four tables, and Lita attacking Edge and Christian.

Some highlights include Jeff Hardy giving a Swanton Bomb off a ladder onto Rhyno and Spike through tables, Bubba Ray and Matt going through four tables, and of course one of the best moves in history as Edge speared Jeff while he was hanging from the belts 20 feet above the ring! Edge and Christian win. 10/10

HHH vs. The Undertaker: This turned into a semi street fight after the ref was knocked unconscious within the first ten minutes. They fight in the crowd and onto a tower filled with monitors and cameras. HHH knocks taker around with a chair, then Taker chokeslams HHH over the side and into the crowd.

They go back into the ring and HHH cracks the sledgehammer over Takers face, but taker kicks out. Taker then gives the last ride for the win. An okay match, but the ref being unconscious all that time wasn't that believable. 8.5/10

20 man "old school" Battle Royal: This was shorter than all their entrances combined. It was okay but definately was just there to entertain the crowd. The Iron Shiek wins. 7/10

The Rock vs. Stone Cold - No Disqualification for the WWE Belt: Out of their three matches at WM, this is the best they ever put one. Both men get cut open, an announce table was broken, each use the others own finishing moves and the biggest surprise of them all came last when Vince McMahon comes down and helps stone cold win the belt.

You could tell that the crowd didn't really care because they were too busy cheering the fact that stone cold was champion no matter what. Stone Cold begins his fifth reign as champion. 9.5/10

Overall this is the best WM of them all. It has a variety of matches for all sorts of viewers. I personally liked the TLC match and Kurt vs. Benoit, but that is just my opinion. Also, this is really hard to find on DVD, it took me 4 months to find this, so start now!
