Bada's Take On Wrestlemania 24.

Firstly the ordering of the matches were pathetic in my opinion.

JBL v Finlay.
Money In The Bank.
Batista v Umaga.
Kane v Chavo Guerrero.
Shawn Michaels v Ric Flair.
Beth Phoenix & Melina v Maria & Ashley Massaro.
Randy Orton v John Cena v Triple H.
Floyd Mayweather v Big Show.
Edge v Undertaker.

Orton v Cena v Triple H should of been the main event really.
Money In The Bank should of been put near the end.

Also i never realised the Citrus Bowl actually had no roof and shit. The fans must of got soaked. It looked like a storm was brewing as far as i could see.

Here's my take on the matches.

JBL v Finlay, it was an alright fight. Lots of weapons were involved so it made quite decent. Eventually though JBL won with the clothesline from hell.

Money In The Bank, no Money In The Bank could ever top the very first one done. It was a pretty poor Money In The Bank match to be honest. MVP look like he was about to win it with all the rest of the superstars down. Matt Hardy comes out of the crowd (like no one saw that coming) Matt Hardy bascially admitted that he would interfere. Matt Hardy was asked when he would return to the ring. Hardy commented by saying, "tonight's a good night." So he screwed MVP. CM Punk and Jericho was on the ladder battling then Jericho got his foot caught and was upside down on the ladder and CM Punk gets Money In The Bank. Pretty poor really.

Batista v Umaga, i think it was fairly obvious who would win this fight, i'm going to tell you why exactly. Everyone knows Raw is better than Smackdown, so why not let Smackdown win the brand battle. That's what happened Batista beat Umaga.

Kane earlier won the battle royal which meant he would face Chavo Guerrero for the ECW Title.

Kane v Chavo Guerrero. This is how it played out, Kanes music went, Chavo was in the ring waiting for him. Kane appeared behind Chavo out of nowhere then Chavo turned around and BANG Chokeslam, new ECW Champion, the match lasted a whole 6 seconds. Why bother in the first place?

Shawn Michaels v Ric Flair. Apparently this could of been the main event but Flair declined the idea. We all knew what was going to happen. Seriously, Hall Of Fame Night, Flair was talking for like an hour in his speech when he got inducted in the Hall Of Fame, thanking everyone, he was crying, wrestlers had tears in there eyes. I think it was fairly obvious that Flair would lose and then retire. How ironic that Ric Flairs last match was a pretty darn good one. Michaels and Flair gave everything. Flair kicked out of Sweet Chin Music, Michaels had the figure four leg locked in him at least twice and still got out of it. Then when Flair was groggy from the first Sweet Chin Music, HBK went all gay and went "I'm sorry" BANG another Sweet Chin Music 1,2,3. One of the best matches on the night though. Flair is 59 when he retired, god does this mean Undertaker is going to be around for another 10 fucking years. AHHH.

Beth Phoenix & Melina v Maria & Ashley Massaro. No one cares about these matches? We just want to see PUPPIES. They had a power failure in this match. It was pretty funny. lol. Anyway it was pretty pathetic really, the match. Santiago or whatever the fuck is his name. He came to ringside distracted Maria, then Jerry Lawler decided to punch Santiago, while all this happened Maria got pinned by Beth Phoenix. Then Santiago got in the ring and was bothering Maria or shit. Then Snoop Dog got in the ring and gave Santiago a clothesline and then made out with Maria.

Randy Orton v John Cena v Triple H. This fight, it seemed like it last like 10 minutes. I think it got cut short because of the power failure. Obviously i could see shit because i was watching it on tv but no ideas about the actual fans there. Then the power sorted itself out. In the end, Triple H predigreed Cena then went for the pin 1,2, then Orton kicked Triple H in the head and pinned Cena to retain his belt. One of the worst triple threat matches i have ever seen. The crowd seemed fantastic though. Cena and Triple H were throwing punches. Everytime Cena punched The Game he got booed, everytime The Game punched Cena the fans cheered.

Floyd Mayweather v Big Show. God, awful, absolutely awful. Mayweather was thinking this was a boxing match, he went to the corner and took some water like they do in boxing and i guessed that pissed the Big Show off. Then Floyd was trying to leave with his posse. Big Show took out his posse. Then back to the ring Big Show was about to finish Mayweather off then one of his posse got a chair and hit Big Show, then Mayweather started hitting Big Show with the chair and got brass knuckles and hit Big Show in one punch. KNOCK OUT. 40-0 i guess now for Floyd Money Mayweather.

Undertaker v Edge - Main Event. I hate Undertaker so bad, but this was a pretty darn good fight as well. I love fights when there is lots of counters and wrestlers are kicking out of other wrestlers finishing moves and shit. Edge countered bascially everything in the early going, Last Ride, Old School, Edge speared Undertaker, i thought the streak was over but no Undertaker kicked out. It was like that the whole match. Then Edge speared Undertaker again and went for the pin but Undertaker got his legs around Edges head, some submission move, it looked like Taker was getting a blow job really. Edge then tapped. 16-0. It's pathetic, i really hope Undertaker loses at Wrestlemania sometime soon. Good match though. Then fireworks went off but some fireworks went into the top tier. Lucky no one was seriously injured.

Overall it was alright, wasn't the best Wrestlemania and wasn't the worst. It's amazing how it broke records though.

I didn't see it but I heard it wasn't anything spectacular. I hear Flair vs. HBK was the best of the night, as I predicted. Funny about eh fireworks. Those fans had a sucky night. First rain, then lame matches then fireworks exploding in their faces.

Undertakers streak is pathetic. Someone with that much talent... doesn't deserve to be on the show to begin with.

Ugh.

And Snoop Dogg should be arrested. Any other person would have been.

(Yes, i realize it was all staged, but still)
