Re: WWE Wrestlemania 22

I thought it was an excellent Mania. The Edge-Foley match was very brutal - we expect that sort of thing from Foley, but Edge was outstanding - I respect him even more as a performer now.
I think the old 'get him some respect then turn him face' routine was used in this one.

My favourite match was McMahon/Michaels. After Bret didn't come out for the Hall Of Fame line-up I thought they were saving him for this match, but Bret was true to his word.

I was disapointed they didn't take the belt off Cena. The more he has the belt, the more hostile the fans are towards him. I think the WWE are doing this for a reason. Imagine the heat he'll get when they turn him heel.

As for the rest. Benjamin's excellent performance in the MITB match proved that he is the best pure athlete in the WWE - if only he could use the mic (he should speak to JBL). Trish/Mickie - great match, pity about the crowd screwing it up! (I hate those 'You f***** up' chants). Great to see 'Taker flying over those ropes again.

The WWE may have failed with a majority of the PPV's over the past few years, but they never get Mania wrong.
