Watching WM 27, ADR vs EDGE. Man Edge is so washed. He looked just a bad at WM26 against Jericho. This was Edge last match so its significant in that way but dude should have walked away two years prior.
 
Cody vs Rey was a dope match. Damn I wish Cody was in a better position today. The commentary on this event is horrible with heel Michael Cole and that pos Josh Matthews...ugh
 
Orton vs Punk, the classic. A story that made sense (though 2 or 3 years after the initial strike)

Oddly enough Punk told Orton "As long as we breathe the same air you will never be WWE champion again"

Orton won the WHC (the title Orton made Punk lose) not long after this feud on Smackdown
 
Undertaker vs HHH, No Holds Barred (probably should have been the main event) very hard hitting affair .Love that it was a lightweight continuance to the HBK series without saying it was continuing that story. it was obvious HHH challenged Taker for ending HBK career the previous year. I hate they stopped linking Undertaker's matches this way.

If not for Punk vs Orton this would be match of the night but this is right up there. A great match.

Watching: WM 28

Notes thus far-

DB got hosed. All these years later its still unreal they jobbed dude out like that

Random ass Kane vs Orton match...even more random ass clean win for Kane. A big WTF

Cody vs Big Show...I feel bad for young Cody. He was champion 232 days and jobbed to Show, stupid decision even dumber decision for Show to drop it right back the next month.

Too ready for this HHH vs Taker HIAC. i remember the storytelling but not much else
 
HHH vs Undertaker was a great match, very different when you already know the finish but still very good storytelling.

Jericho vs Punk was awesome, contender for match of the show but the only comp is the HHH vs Undertaker match
 
Man Rock vs Cena was plodding. I have no idea wtf it was. It was aight, not total trash but its one of those matches you need to see just to say you saw it.
 
the first taker hhh match was the best imo, i remember thinkin hhh really could win and i was ready to quit wrestling b lol. did taker get hurt that match, i remember a couple spots being rough as fuck
 
watching mankind vs hbk at mind games never seen this one b4

foley did that favor of adding a certain legitimacy for a lotta niggas

i slick see the way dean attacked the body parts of hhh the other week is a bit reminiscent of how hbk was attacking foley

that was the second hhh/taker WM match. the first one took place at WM17

in the last few years i cant tell if taker has been seriously injured or selling. he be looking fucked up sometimes
 
It's ridiculous how much they clowned on Mark Henry during the Attitude Era. His sexual addiction had him getting tortured by PMS. Getting Mae Young pregnant and giving birth to a hand. Fucking a crossdresser. Even admitting to having sex with his sister. Shit was brutual.

not that id ever test him but man sid was throwing some atrocious punches after this match lol
 
WM 29=

Random ass Mark Henry vs Ryback match. Talk about forgettable, IIRC Ryback turned heel right after this. Why Ryback lost will be forever a mystery, it was totally the wrong call.

I noticed Ryback's hump back in this match, he definitely....deflated these days. Unfortunately this is probably the only WM match Mark Henry has ever won.

Speaking of random fucking Sheamus, Orton & Bug Show versus The Shield? I ate dinner and barely even watched this shit.
 
Team Hell No vs Ziggy & E...blah. They should have put the title on Ziggler at WM.

Fandango vs Jericho...forgot this even happened. If you need any evidence that wins and losses don't mean shit this match defines the concept. This event was just 3 YEARS ago and Fandango is far from relevant despite winning. The gimmick is shit from the gate too.

I'll never understand why guys give the green light to these dancing, pretty boy gimmicks they almost never go anywhere. Very few people attain any success with that kind of gimmick. Fandango was never going to work as a character.

I think he is a fine worker though, I've seen him do good shit on Main Event when Rosa was with him. But...this is the highlight of dude career.

ADR vs Swagger for the WHC:

Man oh man that Patriot gimmick was money waiting to be printed. I still can't believe Jack managed to fuck this up. I love the edge of the gimmick too especially because of the white supremacist angle it started with. Once they expanded the gimmick to include ALL foreigners (Italians, Jews etc) it lost some of the punch but it was still an excellent gimmick.

ADR cast as the immigrant babyface was a good touch. I think he did well with this gimmick but he's so easily hatable that it wasn't going to stick long term without a gimmick like Swagger's to oppose it.

The match itself was good, neither of these guys get enough credit and this match is slept on despite being one of the better matches on this card...okay the card is weak but thats not the point.
