What an average pay per view. It seems clear that from the list
of average list of ppvs from the WWE after Wrestlemania have
been average at best. As one fan on IMDb pointed out, the
problem is that there is special treatment given to such wrestlers
such as TripleH who married Stephanie McMahon and thus
people hitting himself together with Vince McMahon his father in
law, to do as he pleases. In this case it involves Holding the title,
while giving us one pitiful performance after another using
sledgehammers and a chair when a great opponent like Chris
Benoit or others threaten him.
The other problem also stated is that each ppvs seems to
be just one long RAW or Smackdown episode with nothing really
being resolved, such as the JBL vs Undertaker affair.
World Heavyweight Championship Triple H vs Randy Orton
Average fight don't let the other reviews fool you. I am
one of a few people who predicted Orton would lose the title
right after Summerslam. Randy Orton was made the youngest
champ to remove Brock Lesnar of the histiry books plain and
simple. Triple H with help from Evolution regains the title
and stops Orton's streak.
Shawn Michaels vs Kane
So so match. Kane is a stupid story with Lita being pregnant
(which she isn't) and she names Michaels his opponent for
revenge. A decent match, but Michaels is getting to old
for these beatings and still coming out the winner.
Chris Benoit & William Regal vs Ric Flair & Batista
Again so so match, Benoit should be wrestling for the title
against Orton, but instead hes jobbed into wrestling Evolution,
World Tag Team Championship La Resistance vs Rhyno & Tajiri
Again one law RAW rivalry that went nowhere. La Resistance
is giving a threat by Rhyno and Tajiri, but they easily
take care of business.
Womens Championship Trish Stratus vs Victoria
Interesting match, both Victoria and Trish are bonified sex
symbols on RAW, and they both can wrestle. Decent.
Overall an average ppv, no wonder no one forks over fifty
or thirty dollars for these mediocre ppvs. Taboo Tuesday
was also a flop it seems the writers for the WWE still
haven't learned how to write up a good pay per view.
