It is so daring, it is so ambitious, it is so thrilling and weird and pointed and powerful. I never knew where it was going.

I read the other comments and were shocked to see so many critics. I actually thought it was great. It was long (I know some people don't enjoy the length), but that's what makes me love it. I think this is one of the few WrestleManias where all champions actually appear. Most of them appear to defend their titles, except for the Intercontinental Champion, Randy Orton, who participated in another match. On top of that, WrestleMania XX has one of the most dramatic WrestleMania endings of all-time. I'll bring up my arguments.Big Show (c) vs. John Cena - US Title. This was when Cena still had decent skills and when he was still loved by the fans. I thought his skills was so-so back then, I only cheered him few times because of his mic skills (still good as of 2004). Okay, we go on to the match. The match was decent, it was alright. For wrestlers with skills like Big Show and Cena, this is what I'd probably expect. At least. Cena winning with brass knucks and two F-U's not only did put Cena over, but also the Big Show. 7/10Rob Van Dam & Booker T (c) vs. Garrison Cade & Mark Jindrak vs. The Dudley Boyz vs. La Résistance - World Tag Team Titles. This match was not too bad, sure it might be pointless, but it is quite amusing. I love all the teams (especially La Résistance), but I need to note down an exception. I didn't know what the hell Cade and Jindrak are doing in WrestleMania. It should be someone else, I believe Lance Storm was still around back then, and he should be in there, along with Val Venis. Overall, it was a so-so match. I didn't like it too much, but I didn't hate it either. 6/10Christian vs. Chris Jericho. This one was really good in my opinion. The two wrestlers performed above their standards, and the match is well done. Combined by the nice pre-match promo and a surprise ending, I enjoyed it a lot. 8/10Evolution vs. Rock 'n' Sock Connection. This one was highly entertaining (thanks to The Rock and Ric Flair) and the build-up was quite good. I didn't like the idea of it being Handicap Match, maybe Flair should be in the ringside. I also didn't like how Evolution was extremely over in the match. This win was important for Batista and Orton, but at least, they should make it a decent battle. The Rock didn't get to show much, and the match was over when Orton did an RKO on Foley. Hmmm. 7/10Torrie Wilson & Sable vs. Stacy Keibler & Miss Jackie. Pretty amusing, except Miss Jackie showed such a small wrestling talent. It is a standard Diva match. 5/10Cruiserweight Open - Chavo Guerrero (c) - Cruiserweight Title. This is one of the best matches of the night. I love the cruiserweight being not excluded from such an important event. So much high-flying actions and a little bit of drama, I really like it. I just hope Paul London was there, but unfortunately he wasn't in the picture. 8/10Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar w/Austin as Guest Ref. It was all hype and very boring, yeah, I admit that. It had nice moments in the end of the match, and Goldberg won with his usual combination. Austin did his stunners, yeah, love that. 5/10Rikishi & Scotty 2 Hotty (c) vs. The World's Greatest Tag Team vs. The Basham Brothers vs. The APA - WWE Tag Team Titles. I always enjoyed the presence of tag title matches like this, I never like the idea of champions being excluded, thank God none did. Well, I love the APA and WGTT. Rikishi and Scotty were highly entertaining, but it's a shame Scotty went on to become a jobber. Other than that, it's a so-so match. 6/10Victoria (c) vs. Molly Holly - Women's Title. This one was a great Diva match. It has an edgier feel, since Molly's hair is at stake. Both divas performed above standards, and I like it. I was also amazed at Molly, I respect her willing to shave her head in front of an audience. If I were Vince I would give her a title reign, it's a shame such a great female wrestler had to leave WWE. 7/10Eddie Guerrero (c) vs. Kurt Angle - WWE Title. Another great match. You can never have bad matches when Kurt and Eddie are in the ring respectively. Having both performers in the ring is like an icing on the cake. The build-up was good, and it has entertaining moments and creative finish. As much as I love Kurt, I gotta gave Eddie his due. 9/10Kane vs. The Undertaker. The build-up was so great and intense. Taker's entrance was fabulous, unfortunately the match is not as good as expected. Taker dominated 95% of the match. 6/10Triple H (c) vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit - World Heavyweight Title. The best match of the night, and WWE facts say that this is one of the best WrestleMania matches of all-time. Great match, I never got bored watching this over and over again. There was no boring point in the match, plus the finish was great. Dramatic moments and ending. It all fits. 10/10On top of all that, I recommend anyone to watch this. For those who watched it the first time might get bored, but if you have the DVD, there is no problem in skipping matches, is there?

A far better wrestlemania then 21..people said there were too many matches ,,its wrestlemania there can never be too many... heres the rundown of matches1. Big Show(US CHAMP) Vs JOHN CENA!!! US CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH6/10 Not a great match but the crowd certainly enjoyed it ...cena somehow managed despite being battered the whole match and hardly registering a move, managed to gain great crowd acclaim, due to his selling, facial expressions you name it cena did it, he also landed an impressive FU, good starter really got the crowd pumped up.2. RVD and Booker t( TAG CHAMPS) Vs Dudleys Vs Cade and Jindrak Vs La Resistance . WORLD TAG TITLES5/10 Average match. U kinda don't care what happens.3. Christian Vs Chris Jericho..7.5/10 Very good match, both carried each other at separate times which made it dead even. end was a bit poor but the aftermath was good.4. Evolution Vs ROCK N SOCK7.5/10 Good match as you would expect with people like flair Orton rock and Foley in it , Batista was the only downside could have been better with a few false endings.5. Cruiserweight Open ..4/10 at first i didn't know what was going on because cruiser weight after cruiser weight kept coming out , when the match gets started its nothing special ,crowd didn't care.6. Brock Lesnar Vs Goldberg SPECIAL REF - AUSTIN3/10 Diabolical but i understand why , as both men were leaving, the script writers wanted the crowd to hate them so they basically stare at each other for 10 minutes before hitting there finishers and both get stunned by AUSTIN!!!I enjoyed it in a way ..cus it was LESNAR GOLDBERG IT WAS SUCH A HYPE !!!!7. Torrie and Sable Vs Jackie and Stacy 9/10 for hotness....1/10 for everything else...but there divas so I'm not gonna rip on them.8. Rikishi and Scotty(CHAMPS) vs Benjamin and Haas Vs APA Vs Bashams WWE TAG TITLES3/10 talk about trying to cram everyone in. nothing match once again the tag titles are lowered.9. Molly Holly Vs Victoria ( WOMENS CHAMP) womens title match if molly loses she loses her hair....3/10 If Trish isn't in a womens wrestling match it ain't worth it...i don't think many were bothered about the result, even though we would get to see molly go bald10. Kurt Angle Vs Eddie Guerrero(WWE CHAMP) WWE CHAMpionship match8/10 Best Match so far as you would expect from AMAZING ANGLE and Guerrero , angle performs a few top class moves. Guerrero was good ..ending was poor which is partly why Guerrero's title reign sucked bad.11. Undertaker Vs Kane6.5/10 Only makes 6 because the dead man returned and his entrance gave me goosebumps, poor match with little sparks.12. Benoit Vs HBK Vs Triple H (WORLD CHAMP) WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH9/10 easily best match of night Benoit performs to the highest quality which gets him crowd support over HBK blood, broken bodies you name it this match had it, great way to end the pay per view.
