You guys are on freaking drugs. Re-watch if you need to before you rate.

1. Taker-Edge- The early part was just kind of there and had little to do with anything that came later, though when they did the "Edge counters everything" later and Taker ended up winning with a counter that was cool. My problem is the choke doesn't work for Taker's character, nor is it a classic image for a winner in a huge match. *** 3/4. Will be ultimately overshadowed and the start lowered it a lot.

2. MITB - *** 1/2 - you're standard WWE style spotfest. Everyone got a moment, but it still wasn't a story to be found.

3. The Triple Threat- Orton played opportunist here awesomely and Cena was a great he man... but what was Hunter's role in the actual match. Did I miss that somewhere? This was nowhere near the WMXX match, mostly because the didn't establish 1 participant well and the finish was too short/out of nowhere for a huge match. We know Cena can escape a pedigree. Why couldn't he here with time to rest? *** 1/2.

4. Flair HBK- refuse to rate it. Like the Kobashi return or Hogan-Rock, this stands as a special moment. We need a moment of the year to give to this one and those like it.

Flair/Michaels was great but come on, *****? I understand it being Flair's last match and all but I think some are being a bit generous. A 5 star match is a flawless match and from my first watch I could see flaws which prevent it from being 'perfect'. I'll give more of my thoughts on the match once I watch it again.

it's just wrestling. if you didn't think it was and some did, shut up about it. we don't need 5 pages of you trying to explain why we're wrong and you're right.

sames goes to Aaron, you're the biggest star rating nerd.

So, I have to shut up because I have an opposite opinion? It's called fucking debating, the sole purpose these forums are around. If you didn't want your star ratings to be debated about, then don't post them.

i'm sorry. you're right. i came off as a jerk and took your post too serious. it felt like you were attacking me personally. i guess it's just from all the anti-WWE abuse i get from Aaron that has me so defensive.

palsies?

I honestly thought Mayweather/Show was the second best match on the card last night. Such great fun. Floyd was so awesome as the heel, to pick up pro wrestling like that and go out and produce in a marquee match on the biggest show of the year in front of a record attendance deserves a lot of credit. His facial expressions when he thought he was winning were perfect and his selling was pretty good. And Show deserves a lot of credit for pulling it out of the bag too.

Flair/Michaels was bloody tremendous.

**-Mystery-** · 03-31-2008, 09:23 AM

I agree with everything you say T-C about Show/Mayweather but I couldn't help but feel bored and burned out by the match.

My major beef with Michaels/Flair was Flair's lack of attacking Michaels' ribs. I realize that he was likely legit hurt but he should've attacked the ribs to keep up the sense of realism.
