WrestleMania 21 (2005 TV Special)
8/10
It was good, but last year's was better
4 September 2006
Warning: Spoilers
This years Wrestlemania 21 was good, but i reckon last year's was probably a little bit better.

First match- Eddie Guerrero vs. Rey Mysterio This wasn't really bad, a good test of strength between these two Tag Champions. Rey Mysterio wins after a hurricana roll-up on Eddie for the 3 count. 4/10

Second match- Money In The Bank Ladder match, Shelton Benjamin vs. Chris Benoit vs. Chris Jericho vs. Kane vs. Edge vs. Christian This was definitely the best match of the night. A lot of high-flying moves from the ladders & also suicidal moves as well especially from the ever entertaining Chris Benoit. Edge wins after knocking Benoit from the ladder then getting the briefcase to win the whole match. 7/10

Third match- Randy Orton vs. Undertaker This was also a enjoyable match, i wanted Orton to win but Undertaker just had to pull out a victory after delivering a Tombstone on Orton to get the pin fall & keep his Wrestlemania streak even more. 5/10

Fourth match- Trish Stratus vs. Christy Hemme for the WWE Women's Championship Pretty boring this match was, mostly like other Diva matches. Trish wins after a Chick Kick to retain her title. 2/10

Fifth match- Sumo match, Akebobo vs. Big Show One word, boring. This match was not entertaining, Akebono the Sumo Grand Champion threw Big Show out to win. 2/10

Sixth match- Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels This match was also the second best match of the night, so many great moves being applied & both men gave it all to give their best Wrestlemania match ever. I think they did. Kurt Angle wins after making Shawn Michaels tap out to the Ankle Lock in what was like a 30 minute match. 6/10

Seventh match- JBL vs. John Cena for the WWE Championship Good match between these two, i do reckon in my opinion that this match should of been a little bit longer but it was still good. John Cena nails a F-U on JBL to capture the WWE Championship & end JBL's 9 month reign as WWE Champion. 5/10

Eigth & final match of the night-Batista vs. Triple H for the WWE Championship Great bout between these two former best friends & Evolution members. Both men tested out each other in the main event & also gave a good match to the fans. But not better than last year's Wrestlemania main event. Batista captures his first World Title when he nails a Powerbomb on the bloody Triple H to defeat his former best friend & mentor. 5/10

Overall: This was a good Wrestlemania but not better than last year's. I'll give it 8/10 & B+.
