It's like I said, HBK at Mania, Flair's last match, the fact that it JUST HAPPENED, it's bound to be rated over four stars regardless by so many people.....but now close to the perfect 5? Jesus.
Who knows though, I can't comment, it might actually be THAT good. Either way I'm intrigued.

It was brilliant, honestly, i have it as *****, it just had everything needed to be a brilliant match, Flair looked he could barely breath at the end, you could really tell that him and HBK wanted to make this a classic, and it was just that.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
^ Especially as HBK seemed to break his ribs in the first 10 minutes lol
Wrestlemania 24 is the best PPV since Wrestlemania 19 imo.

vivalabrave your ratings are way too harsh

Or yours are way to high.
I can't comment because like I said, I haven't seen it but to suggest that Flair and Michaels put on a match that equals the rating of the greatest match of all time last night is pretty insane. 5 stars? I mean...really? Then Edge vs Taker **** 1/2, and Show vs Floyd *** 1/2, that almost seems like throwing good ratings out like candy compared to some other reviews I've seen.

Floyd/Show is dependant on what you were expecting I think, I was looking forward to a good old clusterfuck whereas they both performed very well and kept me entertained throughout, anything below **3/4 is harsh imo.
And those other two matches you mention were very, very good.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
Our ratings aren't that far off I Luv Mickie James. Everything is with 1/4* - 1/2* except for:
Batista vs. Umaga - 7 minutes of nothing really going on except for my new favorite chant of " U-U-U-ma-ga!"
HBK vs. Flair - I've seen mixed ratings for this match and mine appear to be in the middle. If you read my post I said that I've gone back and forth on this rating. I'll rewatch in a few months to see if it still holds up. Still Bad to the Ass, though.
Maywheather vs. Big Show - Pretty entertaing but I'm not gonna give it a ton of stars or whatever.
Edge vs. Taker - Honestly, knowing the match was the main event really took me out of it because it became obvious that Taker was winning. My rating is the lowest I've seen but eh.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
**** for the WWE title match!?!?!?
I have it at ***1/4, it was just way to short, usually triple threat matches have to be given a lot of time for it to be really good.

Yet you gave it ***3/4
MITB IV is ****-****1/4.
I have seen people give MITB III **** but this one takes it to another level. For all those people who gave MITB III ****, you should really give this ****3/4 - ***** because it was that much better.

Re: Official WWE DVD Help/Discussion/Review Thread
WWE Wrestlemania 24
Finlay vs. JBL - ***
Money In The Bank 4 - ****-****1/4
Batista vs. Umaga - **3/4
Kane vs. Chavo Guerrero - DUD
Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels - ****
Bunny Mania - *1/2-*3/4
Randy Orton vs. Triple H vs. John Cena - ***1/2
Big Show vs. Floyd Mayweather - **1/4
Edge vs. Undertaker - ***3/4
Overall Thoughts - The PPV was very good and definately the best Mania of the 20's. Finlay/JBL was a great choice as opener, MITB was possibly the best they've done, Flair/Michaels is being stupidly overrated but it was still very good and an emotional encounter, The triple threat was good but like Angle/Mysterio/Orton it should have gone longer but seening Orton won I really couldn't care and finally Edge vs. Undertaker was a very good match but the opening to the match made it so that I couldn't go any higher than ***3/4.
Overall Rating - ***1/2-***3/4 (Undecided yet) ((Note I rate shows as : 1 (Poor) 2 (Average) 3 (Good) 4 (Very Good) 5 (Brilliant))
