I can't believe it was 20 years ago that I watched my first ever WRESTLEMANIA, back when it was Hogan versus Savage in the main event - so much has changed over the years and here we are in 2009 with the 25th Anniversary!

Filmed at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas the event opened with the absolutely electric "Money In The Bank" ladder match where CM Punk, Kane, Mark Henry, MVP, Shelton Benjamin, Kofi Kingston, Christian, and Finlay battled it out for the number one contender placement for any WWE title at any time. The action was non-stop and very exciting, turning out to be one of the best and most creative ladder matches I've ever seen. (9/10)

Next on the card was the pointless and un-exciting Diva Battle Royale, which seemed to just be a stepping stone for a new "talent" in the WWE. Other than a bit of eye candy for us guys, this match is a bit of a waste of time. Luckily it's a pretty short one! (2/10)

Then there was the kind of match you'd expect from an anniversary edition of the event where the disrespectful Chris Jericho took on three of the greatest WWE legends of all time - "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat and Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, with the added bonus of THE WRESTLER star, Mickey Rourke at ringside. This match wasn't as good as it could have been, showing how old a past it the Hall of Famers are now rather than bringing anything new or nostalgic to the show, which surprised me as these were three of the best back in the 80s and early 90s. It felt like it was just a way to boost the movie and also bring a couple of legends to the show really. (4/10)

Possibly the highlight match of the evening for me was brother versus brother in an extreme rules match when Matt Hardy faced off against Jeff Hardy. Pretty much everything but the kitchen sink is used in this one and also has so much high-flying and near-impossible maneuvers, as you'd expect from these talented superstars. There's not a slow moment in this one and the finish is one of the best I've ever seen (10/10)

The Intercontinental title bout between the champion JBL and the challenger Rey Mysterio was possibly one of the worst title fights I have ever seen. It's over after about 20 seconds, so if you blink you will literally miss it! (2/10)

Next up was what will go down as one of the greatest matches of all time. Undertaker vs. HBK. out of all Taker's previous 16 wins at mania, no one came as close to beating him then mr wrestlemania. it was truly a must see for all pro wrestling fans, (10/10)

John Cena's entrance to the triple-threat World Heavyweight title match with The Big Show and Edge was one of the most memorable in the history of WRESTLEMANIA, who came down the aisle with a group of look-alikes. The match itself was pure adrelenaline-filled entertainment that couldn't even keep inside the ring. Out of the three main events, this was my favourite of the night. (9/10)

Finally the 2009 ROYAL RUMBLE winner, Randy Orton faced Triple H for the WWE Title. This was another fairly good match-up with an added stipulation that if Triple H was disqualified, Orton would win the title. This was fairly frantic and fast-paced. The finale wasn't as great as I thought it could have been but generally it was a pretty enjoyable match. (8/10).

Overall if this was a regular event this would have been fantastic but as the 25th anniversary of the greatest event of them all, this was quite a bit of a letdown. Keeping in mind that in past WRESTLEMANIAs we've seen guests such as Mike Tyson, Mohammed Ali, Run DMC, Mr T, Rage Against the Machine, Pamela Anderson, Burt Reynolds, Floyd Mayweather and Lawrence Taylor to just name a few, having just Mickey Rourke and the lead singer of the Pussycat Dolls, this wasn't as memorable as it should have been at all. It was a fairly entertaining night of wrestling though and is one I will most likely watch again in years to come but is nowhere near the high quality of WRESTLEMANIAs we have all seen over the past 25 years. Let's just hope next year's will be more memorable.

grafica spettacolare e match imperdibili in particolare jeff hardy vs. matt hardy, senza contare i fantastici highlight di tutte le Wrestle Mania! insomma lo consiglio a tutti (in blu-ray meglio ancora).

Shawn Michaels vs. Undertaker = MATCH OF THE YEAR.
