Summary: Wrestlemania XX March 14, 2004
Review: This was probably one of the best Wrestlemanias of all time. There was really only one terrible match and it was not expected to be a 5 star match.

U.S. Title- Big Show vs. John Cena- This match was a good opener. The pace was just a little slower than most due to Big Show. John Cena's usual antics also made the match entertaining and the crowd was on. 3.5/5.

Fatal Four-Way World Tag Titles- RVD & Booker T vs. Dudley Boyz vs. Mark Jindrak & Garrison Cade vs. La Resistance- Good match with false finishes and blind tags. A lot of action but a hard format to have a great match. 3.5/5.

Chris Jericho vs. Christian- Awesome match with nonstop action. Style reminded me a little of a faster Michaels vs. Jericho from WMXIX. I was 50/50 on whether Trish would turn or not. 4/5.

Rock'n'Sock Connection vs. Evolution- Very good match especially for a tag/handicap match. Foley looked good and Rock and Flair were hilarious. 4/5.

Playboy Evening Gown Match- Torrie Wilson & Sable vs. Stacy Keibler vs. Jackie- This was the terrible match. Torrie used the O'Conoroll, no joke. For Torrie's flying cross body and the hot Divas 1/5.

Cruiserweight Open with the 10 best WWE cruiserweights- Action packed match. A little rushed with the finishes but a lot of high-flying stuff. 4/5.

Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar with Stone Cold Steve Austin as Guest Referee- Good but definitely not the best match. They were stupid to stand around for 6 minutes(I timed it) staring at each allowing the fans to bash them. Other than that it was fairly good. 3/5.

Fatal Four-Way WWE Tag Titles- Scotty 2 Hotty & Rikishi vs. APA vs. World's Greatest Tag Team vs. Basham Brothers- Good but not as good as RAW's. A little slower and shorter and some guys are less involved. 3/5.

Women's Championship- Victioria vs. Molly Holly- Good women's match but not as good as their Rumble one from HeAT. 2.5/5.

WWE Championship- Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle- Awesome technical match with plenty of action. You've got to love the champ. 4.5/5.

Undertaker vs. Kane- Good return match for Taker. Of course it's a little slower but it's the perfect length. A classic Wrestlemania moment for the future with Taker's return. 3.5/5.

Triple-Threat World Heavyweight Championship Match- Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit- Great match especially for a triple-threat. Nonstop action. One of the greatest Wrestlemania matches of all time. 5/5.

All in all, one of the most solid PPVs you'll see. Easily in the top 5 Wrestlemanias, maybe in the top 2 or 3. A pure masterpiece. Really one for the collection. Just watching this shows doubters why people love wrestling.

Summary: Spectacular
Review: Many people thought this ppv was not very good, but personally i thought it was exceptional.

U.S. Championship:
Big Show [c] vs. John Cena

Not too good, but still watchable. good ending w/ the right man coming out on top. Grade=C

World Tag Team Championship
RVD $ Booker T [c] vs. Jindrak & Cade vs. Dudleys vs. La Resistance

This match was better than most people said. It was fairly fast paced and had good action. Grade= B-

Christian vs. Chris Jericho

Good match. Ending was surprising. Christian & Jericho both looked very comfortable in this match. Grade= B

Evolution vs. Rock 'N Sock Connection

Good match. The Rock is a great entertainer. He and Flair have some good chemistry together. Grade= B

Playboy Evening Gown Match
Sable & Torrie vs. Keibler & Miss Jackie

This match was disappointing. It was not hot enough and was too short. Grade= C-

Goldberg vs. Lesnar

Another disappointing match. Seemed as if both of these superstars wanted the match to end so they could leave to go somewhere. Extremely Disppointing. Grade= D+

Women's Championship:
Victoria vs. Molly Holly

This was horrible. The ending saved it. Grade= D

WWE Championship:
Eddie Guerrero [c] vs. Kurt Angle

Great Match. Long and suspenseful. Grade= A-

Undertaker vs. Kane

Memorable match. Great entrances. Not too great of match however. Still cool to see the Dead Man back. Grade= B

Triple H [c] vs. Benoit vs. HBK

SPECTACULAR. All 3 men were amazing. 5 stars easily. Show Stealer. Best match of the night and year. Grade= A+

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: For better action look to WM XIX
Review: It seems like every match this year was forced. Goldberg/Lesnar could have been awesome but the two stalled too much. Angle/Eddie was OK. They're both great performers and could have done much more. HHH/HBK/Benoit was good but a triple-threat is never as good as a one on one match up. Last year, Angle and Lesnar put on a tremendous match and that's due to the fact that it's one on one. WM XIX was so much better than XX. The tag team matches were horrible. HBK vs Y2J is the best match I've ever seen in my life. If you've never seen it, I'm sorry. The extras on the disc are worth the price alone. Seeing Hulk Hogan lace his boots up along side Kurt Angle is just priceless. These guys leave their heart and soul in the ring everytime out and I respect them for that.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Wrestlemania returns to the Garden
Review: 1. The Dudley Boys Vs. Val Venis & Lance Storm - From SNHeat (On Disk 2), the winner goes to the RAW fatale 4-way. Speaking of Heat, man the Garden crowd was popping like crazy for every move. *** / 5 stars

2. Big Show Vs. John Cena - U.S. title match - Pretty slow match for an opener, can Cena defeat the 500 lb monster? *1/2

3. RVD/Booker T Vs. La Resisteance Vs. Cade/Jindrake Vs. Dudleys - Fatale 4-way which means whoever gets the pin wins the match and the title. Remember when tag team wrestling was cool? Still this was slightly entertaining. **1/2

4. Chris Jericho Vs. "CLB" Christian - In Christian head, Trish Stratus played a Yoko Ono by breaking up their tag team, So he beat up Trish. Now Jericho is determined to get revenge in her honor! ***1/2

5. Mic Foley/The Rock Vs. Flair/Orton/Batista - After countless beatings, and 4 years out of the ring, hardcore legend Mic Foley needed help to take care of Evolution. So he recruited The Rock from Hollywood to help settle the feud. Ric Flair's and The Rocks off-beat shinanigans bump this up to ***1/2

6. 1st Ever Playboy Evening Gown Match - DUD
7. 10-Man Crusierweight Elimination Match - 2 men start off, and when one is eliminated (pinned or taps) another man jumps in until everyone is eliminated. 10 men, ~ 10 min. Non-stop action and I still think Chavo Guerrero Sr. should be wrestling! Will the Cruiserweight division EVER get any respect? Still Ultimo Dragons gets a WM paycheck so I'm happy. ****

8. Goldberg Vs. Brock Lenser w/ Steve Austin as special ref - Yawnnn, they should've given this time to the crusierweights, even Austin looked bored. MSG turns on Brock! - *1/2

9. 2 Cool/APA/Bashams/World's Greatest tag-team - Same as previous fatale 4-way but with Smackdown's tag title on the line. **

10. Victoria Vs. Molly Holly - If Molly wins she's the Women's champ, but if Victoria wins Molly gets shaved bald! *1/2

11. Eddie Guerrero Vs. Kurt Angle - Smackdown Heavyweight Championship - Kurt Angle doesn't feel Guerrero is championship material and is determinded to win the belt at all costs. It's true It's true, this is my fav match on the card. ****1/2

12. The Undertaker Vs. Kane - Kane buried his brother months earlier but since then strange things have been happening.. Will the Undertaker actually show up? (Hint: Yes). Out of the 13,452 macthes these two have had, I rate it # 11,288. *

12. Chris Benoit Vs. Triple H Vs. Shawn Michaels - 3-way match for the RAW World Championship - Whoever gets the pin is the Champion, so your fighting off another wrestler while trying to get a pin. The Past meets the Present meets the Future. NON-STOP action! ****1/2

- 3Dvd's with lots of extra (mostly 10,000 interviews/promos) The best extra is the hour-long Wrestlemania special hosted by slick rick, who countsdown the Top 10 WM matches of all time. Bottom line, this is one of the Best WM ever (due to the last 2 matches) and some enjoyable mid-carders. Thumbs up!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Its Alright But Far From The Best WM!
Review: I just bought the video version yesterday and I will warn you that if you want the full card, get the DVD because the VHS only has the main marquee matches but no interviews, no video build up prior the event and no extras!

Now, those that are saying that his one was the best ought to rethink that. While it didn't totally suck, it fell far from expectations Here is the review of the matches that are on the VHS version:

John Cena Vs. The Big Show - Alright opener. Cena isn't big like Brock Lesner but seeing him pick up 500lbs. for the F.U. is very impressive! I'd give this match 5/10.

Chris Jericho Vs. Christian - Surprisingly entertaining. While I do respect Y2J, I haven't thought of Christian since his tag team with Edge ended in 2001 but he could be a big star. I think having Trish Stratus with him does help him because while having her with Jericho would've made for a romantic angle, they are both pretty big stars and far ahead of Christian (Jericho being a former WWF/WWE Undisputed Champ while Trish is a multi-time Women's Champ). I was upset at first but the more I thought about it, having Trish with Christian instead may give him the boost he needs. 8/10 for the match and the surprise heel turn of Trish.

The Rock n Sock Connection Vs. Evolution - Nice to see Flair back in. Not a big "Nature Boy" mark but I am amazed the man can still get in the ring and perform at all. Another match that I was upset about at first but when I think about it, I think having Evolution win was the right call. Still, I would've went with a screwjob ending rather than a clean one since Evolution are supposed to be heels. Nice to see that The Rock has not let Hollywood life make him fat as he looked tremendous! 6/10 for the match.

Sable/Torrie Wilson Vs. Stacy Keibler/Miss Jackie - Total waste of time in my view. Just a T & A filler though it does show some potential from Stacy as more than just a model but as a wrestler. Same can be said for Torrie too. 3/10 for the match.

Brock Lesner Vs. Goldberg w/"Stone Cold" Steve Austin as the ref - WORST MATCH ON THE CARD! These guys didn't do jack! This should've been the best match because both men can do tremendous things, especially Lesner but they did almost nothing! If it wasn't for Austin, this match would've totally blew! I am giving it 2/10 only because of Austin because if it wasn't for him, it would've got 0/10!

Eddie Gurrerro Vs. Kurt Angle (WWE Title Match) - Surprisingly even! While I do like Eddie Gurrerro, I've seen how tough Kurt Angle can be even against mat guys like Brock Lesner so I'd figure Kurt Angle would dominate but it was amazingly back and forth! Dirty but nice trick at the end by Gurrerro as he used a loose boot to wiggle out of Kurt's anklelock to get a small package to win the match and retain! 7/10 for the match, especially the creative ending!

The Undertaker Vs. Kane - The version shown here is more like "The American Deadman" rather than "The Deadman." Still, it was clearly the "Dark" Undertaker in his manerisms. Not a great match but the entrances of both UT and Kane make it worth watching. Nice to see Paul Bearer back too! 5/10 for the match.
SIDENOTE: UT was in fantastic shape! The best I've seen him ever! He even looked in better shape than Kane (who is usually in better conditioned of the two).

Chris Benoit Vs. Shawn Michaels Vs. Triple H (World Heavyweight Title Triple Threat Match) - While I would've rathered have seen Benoit Vs. HHH one on one like it was SUPPOSED to have been, I can't knock the match itself. It was great! I also have to give HHH props for once and doing the right thing by jobbbing to Benoit rather than him beating Michaels, which I feared would happen. Touching ending at the end of this bout too. I won't give it away but it is heartwarming. I give this match 9/10 and the main reason to get this card!

Overall rating: 6/10. Wasn't a great WrestleMania but I have to say that the Triple Threat Match plus Gurrerro/Angle as well as Jericho/Christian with the surprise heel turn of Trish saved WM for totally going down the toilet!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best WWE Event Ever
Review: When you spend your hard earned money you want to get everything from it. Well I purchased Wrestlemania XX along with three of my frineds and I have to say that I was extremely surprised. When you watch events on tv they have to be alot more careful then they had to at Wrestlemania you can just tell. On Raw or Smackdown their only allowed to punch with their opened so it really doesn't do much and very so often do they ever break eachother open unless it's a Kane match or Shawn Michaels match. Well to the DVD this is a great event to buy because it has 3 DVD's filled with bonus features and Wrestlemania XX Where It All Begins Again event. When I purchased the event I wanted to see all my favorite superstars win but almost none did. But I still enjoyed it. All the superstars put their full effort into their match and you can tell they did. Every match was great besides the Goldberg VS Brock Lesnar match. Goldberg is just a wimp. He was afraid of facing Kane so that fued lasted like 3 weeks and he was afraid of facing Brock Lesnar so this match just sucked. Brock just wanted to get going in the match but Goldberg kept running from side to side. I swear the Jackhammer is the dumbest move I have ever seen. A suplex into a side slam oh my God that is going to just bust you in half. Anyways yeah the match sucked but that was really the only one.

Summary: WrestleMania 20, Not as good as others but better than 19!
Review: WWE U.S. Championship: John Cena Vs. Big Show (Champion)
Decent match, Cena started the night off good w/ a good rap. The ending kinda keeps you on your feet totally. 5/10

WWE World Tag Team Championship: Dudley Boyz Vs. La Resistance Vs. Mark Jinjrack & Garrison Cade Vs. Booker T & RVD (Champions)
Not much to see in this match, just your normal tag match with good stars wasted. 3/10

Christian Vs. Chris Jericho
One of the surprise matches of the night, both men really looked like they were into the match. The ending just completely blew me away. 7/10

2 on 3 match: Evolution (Randy Orton, Batista, & Ric Flair) Vs. Mick Foley & The Rock
I had high hopes for this match, and they were not meant really, they should do The Rock Vs. Flair in the future thanks to their chemistry in this match. 6/10

Playboy Eveningown Match: Miss. Jackie & Stacy Kiebler Vs. Torrie Wilson & Sable.
Horrible Match, the only reason you could watch this is the girls TRYING to fight in Bra & Panties. 2/10

Goldberg Vs. Brock Lesnar w/ "Stone Cold" Steve Austin as the guest referee.
BIG dissapointment, all these competiters do is stare each other down and check stances. While the crowd chanted "Boring" and "you sold out" to Lesnar. After the match Austin drinks beer with the winner, (I'm not telling) and stuns them. 2.5/10

WWE Tag Team Championship: APA Vs. World's Greatist Tag Team Vs. The Basham Brothers Vs. Rikishi & Scotty 2 Hottie (Champions)
Same as the other 4 way match earlier. But worse. 3/10

WWE Cruiserwieght Championship: Rey Mysterio Vs. Jamie Knoble Vs. Tajiri Vs. Akio Vs. Ultimo Dragon Vs. Billy Kidman Vs. Funaki Vs. Shannon Moore Vs. Chavo Guerrero (Champion)
Ok match, I just wished it would be longer. 4.5/10

WWE Womens Championship: Molly Holly Vs. Victoria (Champion)
If Molly losses this match she'll be shaved bald! Very interesting contest, Victoria just keeps gettin better and better. 4.5/10

WWE Championship: Kurt Angle Vs. Eddie Guerrero (Champion)
I thought this was going to be a squash match, but ooooooooh was I wrong, VERY Good match. Very Clever Ending! 9.5/10

Kane Vs. Undertaker
Well..... Undertaker has not changed a bit, the only good thing was the entrances for the superstars. 7.5/10

World Heavywieght Championship: Shawn Micheals Vs. Chris Benoit Vs. Triple H (Champion)
4 Words: Match of the Night. 10/10

Overall I would give WMXX a 8/10, not as good as my favorite (WM17)but close, thanks Vince!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One Of The Greatest Events Ever!!!
Review: 1. U.S. Championship
John Cena vs. The Big Show(c): 6/10 I'm Not a big fan of either guy, but this was a decent match regardless.

2. World Tag Team Championship
Mark Jindrak/Garrison Cade vs. La Resistance vs. The Dudley Boyz vs. RVD/Booker T(c): 5/10 Okay match, suffered from having too many other stellar matches on the card.

3. Chris Jericho vs. Christian: 9/10 Awesome match. Both competitors are unbelieveably underrated and under utilzed. Almost a show stealer.

4. Mick Foley/The Rock vs. Ric Flair/Batista/Randy Orton: 8.5/10 Another great match. I'm not a big Rock fan, but anything with the legends Foley and Flair or soon to be legends Batista and Orton is definately worth watching.

5. WWE Tag Team Championship
APA vs. Basham Brothers vs. TWGTT vs. Scotty2Hotty/Rikishi(c): 2/10 The only part of the event that was really not worth watching.

6. Crusierweight Championship Open
Chavo Guerreo, Rey Mysterio, Jamie Noble, Kidman, Shannon Moore, Nunzio, Funaki, Tajiri, and Ultimo Dragon: 6/10 Some good fast paced action, but needed to be a bit longer.

7. Brock Lesner vs. Goldberg...Special Referee Steve Austin: 7/10 Neither one of these guys is that good, but they had a pretty good contest regardless. I hated the ending though.

8. Playboy Evening Gown Match
Sable/Torrie Wilson vs. Stacy Kiebler/Jackie: 1/10 Why? At any other ppv, okay, But why WrestleMania? Why?

9. Women's Championship
Molly Holly vs. Victoria(c): 7.5/10 Very Good Match. Victoria is the best thing to happen to women's wrestling since Moolah retired.

10. WWE Championship
Kurt Angle vs. Eddie Guerreo: 9.5/10 A classic contest. I expected Angle to crush Eddie, Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge Eddie fan, I just didn't think he was ready for the spotlight yet. I am very, very, pleased that he's proven me wrong.

11. Kane vs. The Undertaker: 8/10 Really wish taker had longer hair, but the enterences for both were worth watching alone, then they have a pretty good match on top of it.

12. World Championship
Shawn Micheals vs. Chris Benoit vs. Triple H(c): 10/10 Unquestionalbly the best match of the night. An instant classic. For me this was worth the price of the ppv on it's own. All three of these guys proved once again why they are some of the best the world has ever seen.

Overall, this was one of, if not the very best wrestling events I have ever seen. Anyone who does not at least watch WrestleMania XX doesn't deserve to call themselves a wrestling fan. A must own
