WWE WrestleMania 22 (2006)

WORLD TAG TEAM TITLES - Kane and Big Show (c) vs Carlito and Chris Masters. MONEY IN THE BANK LADDER MATCH - Rob Vam Dam vs Finlay vs Ric Flair vs Shelton Benjamin vs Matt Hardy vs Lashley. UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP - Chris Benoit vs JBL. HARDCORE RULES MATCH - Edge vs Mick Foley. CASKET MATCH - The Undertaker vs Mark Henry. WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP - Kurt Angle (c) vs Rey Mysterio vs Randy Orton. STREET FIGHT - Vince McMahon vs Shawn Michaels. The Boogeyman vs Booker T and Sharmell. WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP - Trish Stratus (c) vs Mickie James. WWE CHAMPIONSHIP - John Cena (c) vs Triple H. I loved the triple threat match and how an underdog basically went against the system with Rey becoming a World Heavyweight Champion also that Casket Match with Undertaker was insane and the Triple H entrance reminded me of Conan and i absolutely loved both the entrance and the match.

This was one of the best wrestle-manias ever the whole show was excellent with the exception of a couple of matches.1)Kane,Show Vs Carlito,Masters:Good solid opener lots of back and forth action 6.5/10.2)Mitb Rvd vs lushly vs Ric Flair vs Matt Hardy vs Shelton Benjiman vs Finlay:Great money in the bank ladder match lots of stunts the highlight was Shelton doing a sen ton onto everyone 8/10.3)US Title Chris Benoit Vs Jbl:good solid match with Jbl Pulling the win out with a good reversal spot 7/10.4)Hardcore Match Edge VS Mick Foley:awesome defines this match.Edge makes Mick have arguably the best match of his career. 9.5/10.5)Boogeyman vs Booker T:press skip on the DVD remote 1/10.6)Trish Vs Mickie: Great women's match up the crowd just ate this up 8/10.7)Undertaker Vs Mark Henry: Real average match up but every match is with Mark Henry.5/10.8)HBK VS Vince No holds barred: I wasn't really looking forward to this and thought it was a complete waste of Shawn but i was pleasantly surprised when Shawn showed why he is the best wrestler ever,making Vince look really good and the second best match on the card awesome ladder spot in the end with a table. 9/10.9)whc Kurt vs Rey vs Randy:Awesome triple threat match but may have went a little two short and the climax was a little Prue mature but overall a really good match 7.5/10.10)Torrie vs Candice pillow fight:good eye candy didn't go to long and was good to have a light match in between the two world title match's 6/10.11)Wwe Title Triple H Vs Cena: Pretty good match the crowd was red hot for this one with a great finish and good story telling.Triple H did a great job carrying Cena 8/10.Overall I rate wrestle-mania 22:9/10

I thought Wrestlemania 22 was the greatest PPV ever in my opinion.World Tag Team Championship:Kane/Big Show(c) def. Carlito/Masters when Kane pinned Carlito. This was a great Tag Team Championship match, Carlito even got cheered, Carlito & Masters had this won until a miscue happened leading to a Kane & Big Show win, a good match! Rating:10/10 Grade:AMITBII:RVD def. Ric Flair, IC Champion Shelton Benjamen, Bobby Lashley, Finlay & Matt Hardy. This was a show stealer, a lot better than last year's, Rob Van Dam got the much deserved win, all 6 stars did well, my favorite part was when Shelton Benjamen leapfrogged onto the Ladder like Spiderman, maybe the Show Stealer! Rating:10/10 Grade:SUS Championship:JBL def. Chris Benoit(c) to win the title. This was a fairly good match, they both had a good one with JBL getting the win and the gold. Rating:10/10 Grade:AHardcore Match:Edge defeated Mick Foley. Both of these guys stole the show in this match, a definite Show-Stealer here, Edge got the much deserved victory and remained unbeaten, my favorite part was when Edge speared Foley through the burning Table, they out ECW'ed ECW, good job guys! Rating:10/10 Grade:SBoogeyman def. Booker T(& Sharmell) when Boogeyman pinned Booker T. Booker T actually wrestled, but Boogeyman kissed Sharmell with the Worms in his mouth and made Sharmell run away which was the best part of the match, Boogeyman is cool & hilarious, Boogey won his 1st Wrestlemania, a good match. Rating:10/10 Grade:AWomen's Championship:Mickie James def. Trish Stratus(c) to win the title. Greatest Women's Championship ever in my opinion, a definite Showstealer, with my favorite Psychotic Diva getting the win to end Trish's 15-month run, one of those cases where the heel gets cheered and the face booed, Mickie is my favorite, but I love her the best and does her best work as a heel, good job Mickie! Rating:10/10 Grade:SCasket Match:Undertaker def. Mark Henry to go to 14-0. Undertaker won to go to 14-0, but not without a fight, Undertaker had his toughest match ever, Mark Henry carried Undertaker in this, despite not winning, I gotta give Henry pops for a valiant effort! Rating:10/10 Grade:A+No Holds Barred:Shawn Michaels def. Vince McMahon. This was a show stealer here, as much as I hate him, Vince McMahon did awesome in this match and carried Shawn Michaels, great job guys! Rating:10/10 Grade:SWorld Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match:Rey Mysterio defeated Kurt Angle(c) & Randy Orton to win the title when he pinned Randy Orton. A Show Stealer, The Greatest Main Event ever, all three gave their best efforts, but in the end, it was Rey Mysterio pinning Randy Orton get the much deserved victory and the title, and Kurt Angle was not even involved in the decision, good job all 3! Rating:10/10 Grade:SPlayboy Pillow Fight:Torrie Wilson def. Candice Michelle. This was a great match, but probably the weakest of all 11, Torrie Wilson acted like the Torrie Wilson of old & the Torrie Wilson that was on SMACKDOWN! when she pinned Candice to get the much deserved win and snapped her 11-Month losing streak and stay unbeaten at Wrestlemanias, good job Torrie! Rating:10/10 Grade:SWWE Championship:John Cena def. Triple H. This was the other situation when the face was booed and the heel was cheered, this was by far John Cena's toughest win ever, and he was the big underdog, many times, Triple H had it won, and looked like should have won, Triple H not only carried this match, but he also Carried John Cena as well, Good Job Triple H, a show-stealer here! Rating:10/10 Grade:SOverall, I thought this was the greatest Pay-Per-View ever!Overall Rating:10/10 Overall Grade:SMy Wrestlemania 22 MVP:Triple H

A good show. I've only got 1000 words, so let's get on with it.Kane & Big Show vs Carlito & The Master Piece - Decent enough opener, served it's purpose as the opening match. The events after the match planted the seeds for a Carlito/Masters feud. 6/10 Monney In The Bank Ladder Match - Stole the show! I think it's safe to say that Shelton Benjamin saved his career and started a whole new chapter in his professional wrestling life. He just might win the big one some day. After being misused for so long, RVD finally gets treated properly by the WWE bookers. 8.5/10 Mene Gene Okerland/Randy Orton/Batista segment - I still believe that the first time that you should see a superstar on a PPV is when their entrance music hits. Basically this segment planted the seeds for a Randy Orton/Batista feud.Hall Of Fame Segment - Now that Eddie Guerrero takes his rightful place in wrestling history. Hopefully the WWE can stop milking his death and let him rest in peace. By the way, is there any danger of the WWE putting Owen Hart in the Hall Of Fame (he was one of the best in ring performers to grace a WWE ring)? Chris Benoit vs JBL - Nobody expected this to be a classic. It wasn't anything special, but it was watchable (because Chris Benoit works so hard). An unexpected finish though. 5.5/10 Edge vs Mic Foley - Mic Foley can die a happy man, knowing that he finally has his defining Wrestle Mania moment. Edge didn't let Mic Foley take all of the bumps either, he wrestled his most impressive one on one match up to date. Well done to both men. 8/10 The freak segment - Very funny! Booker T vs The Boogeyman - Either release Booker T or put him in a match that he deserves to be in. The Boogeyman effectively ended his WWE career & did his best to take Booker T with him. 3/10 Trish Stratus vs Mickie James - Surprisingly good women's wrestling and a hyped crowd, made this match a classic women's match up. It could have stolen the show if Mickie James didn't do a Brock Lesnar (botch the biggest move of the match). It was actually Trish's fault. She didn't supply Mickie James with enough support to elevate onto the top rope. 6.5/10 The Undertaker vs Mark Henry - This was Mark Henry's chance to earn a contract extension. He blew it! The Undertaker saved this match in the last 5 min. Well done Undertaker for realising that it was Wrestle Mania and raising his game. 6/10 HBK vs Vince McMahon - The feud started slow, but ended well. HBK nearly stole the stole for the 4th straight Wrestle Mania. We all loved the DX crotch chop. Vince McMahon's really letting himself go physically, by the way. Good match! 7.5/10 World Heavyweight Championship - HHH nearly ruined Wrestle Mania by pulling rank and having the 'REAL' main event moved to the 3rd to last match on the card. Kurt Angle was superb. Randy Orton did his job, but seemed like he was there to make sure that people bought the PPV, e.g. HBK at Wrestle Mania XX. Rey Misterio deserves some genuine success, not just the novelty success that the WWE usually gives him. Good match, but too short. 8/10 Lingerie Pillow Fight - Next! 2/10 (you get 2 just for getting into the ring) WWE Championship - Sometimes the crowd makes a match when the wrestling is just ordinary, e.g. Hogan/Andre The Giant WM III, Hogan/Warrior WM VI, Hogan/Rock WM XVIII (basically every Hogan match). Wrestle Mania 22, definitely Cena's defining moment in his career so far. It's evident that Vince is standing his ground and won't stop promoting Cena until we just cheer for him. Triple H must have cheated on Stephanie or something like that. That's the only reason I can think of for Vince making HHH tap out to Cena at Wrestle Mania. 7.5/10 Overall a very good Wrestle Mania. Probably in the top 5 of all time.
