[B]Intercontinetail Championship Match[/B] [B]Hardcore Holly[/B] (c) vs Manu This Match should not be on card i dont like any of them but Holly should retain William Regal Vs [B]Shelton Benjamin[/B] Gold Standard should win Tag Team Title Unification Match Dibiase & Rhodes(c) Vs Hawkins & Ryder(c) Vs [B]Miz & Morrison[/B] Vs Rey Mysterio & Bourne Miz & Morrison should win this one the other teams blow, should have dropped Ryder/Hawkins and just made it a 3 way they did nothing when they had the belts just my opinion ECW T.V Championship Match Chavo Guerrero(c) Vs [B]R-Truth[/B] Vs Tommy Dreamer since i'm a R-Truth fan i'm going with him [B]Santino Marella[/B] Vs Matt Hardy Santino should win simply because he is funny as hell Money In The Bank Ladder Match [B]Elijah Burke[/B] Vs Paul Burchill Vs Chuck Palumbo V Kofi Kingston Vs D-Lo Brown Vs Deuce Elijah Burke should win , his lack off push on wwe tv is a shame Grudge Match [B]Montel Vontavious Porter[/B] Vs Shawn Michaels HBK wouldn't job irl, but MVP could be a future Champion ECW World Heavyweight Championship [B]John Bradshaw Layfeild(c)[/B] vs Kane Just because i think JBL is a wrestling God :p Grudge Match [B]Chris Jericho[/B] Vs Triple H Y2J Save us from HHH WWE Championship Match Umaga Vs Big Show V [B]The Undertaker(c)[/B] To Keep his winning streak going World Heavyweight Championship Match Randy Orton Vs [B]Edge[/B] Vs Batista(c) Vs Jeff Hardy Edge was great during his title reigns and he deserves a long title run ||||| Its an ok card , but personally i would have dropped some of he wrestlers [Holly,D'Lo,Palumbo,Manu,Deuce,Ryder/Hawkins] and a match [Holly vs Manu]

[mrallan]

thanks the card isn't final so I am looking for constructive criticism like you'rs thanks for commenting.I am still three weeks away from the show

[justtxyank]

My two cents: It's Wrestlemania so I prefer one on one encounters for the big belts, or at least not both being multi-man matches. The MITB seems like a match of scrubs save for two or three guys.

[Self]

I agree with justtxyank. Multi-man matches aren't for Wrestlemania in my book, and if you really have to have one, just have one. I don't know how hard you're pushing those MITB guys, for all I know you're given them awesome streaks and are primed for a World Title match, but going from the real world, I'd go get a snack during that match. Plus, other than Kofi and maybe, [I]maybe[/I] Elijah, I can't see any of them doing anything cool, which is what that match is all about. Tag Title unification is cool. I tend to do that in my WWE games, though I rarely can wait until Wrestlemania :) I would drop a few guys from the World title matches, and put them in MITB.

Intercontinetail Championship Match Hardcore Holly (c) vs [B]Manu[/B] [I]For your sake, hardcore is too old and crappy[/I] [B]William Regal [/B]Vs Shelton Benjamin [I]Give him a break, King of the Ring and no championship match?[/I] Tag Team Title Unification Match Dibiase & Rhodes(c) Vs Hawkins & Ryder(c) Vs[B] Miz & Morrison[/B] Vs Rey Mysterio & Bourne [I]Think about it, they gotta be respected(to a degree) on both brands, and provide decent matches. And Rey & Bourne aren't a regular tag team[/I] ECW T.V Championship Match [B]Chavo Guerrero(c)[/B] Vs R-Truth Vs Tommy Dreamer [I] Truth to young, Dreamer too old[/I] Santino Marella Vs [B]Matt Hardy[/B] [I]People only like Santino when that ignorant Italian face is being smashed in[/I] Money In The Bank Ladder Match [B]Elijah Burke [/B]Vs Paul Burchill Vs Chuck Palumbo V Kofi Kingston Vs D-Lo Brown Vs Deuce [I]This match sounds really bad, no offense, have any of them got ladder experience? Has anyone been a major player in WWE? Throw me a frickin bone [/I] Grudge Match [B]Montel Vontavious Porter[/B] Vs Shawn Michaels [I]HBK is great and all, but Jericho has a point, he lies and cheats with the best of em, and MVP can cut a better promo[/I] ECW World Heavyweight Championship John Bradshaw Layfeild(c) vs [B]Kane[/B] [I]CHOKESLAM:eek:[/I] Grudge Match [B]Chris Jericho[/B] Vs Triple H [I]Jericho is Wrestlemania[/I] WWE Championship Match Umaga Vs Big Show V [B]The Undertaker(c)[/B] [I]Noone can break the streak, not even Jackie Chan[/I] World Heavyweight Championship Match Randy Orton Vs Edge Vs Batista(c) Vs [B]Jeff Hardy[/B] [I]It'd be like a dream come true, and it would be a true underdog victory, like Mysterio[/I]

[dubb93]

Way too many multi-man matches. Wrestlemania is about building to the legendary 1v1 match. Both title matches should be 1v1. Also it does not make any sense to me to unify the tag titles and have 2 other random teams in the match. It should be champs v champs. MITB also seems to have people who have no business in the match, it is a ladder match after all.

[QUOTE=mrallan;506426]Well I have no dynasty but wanted to see what people thought of my show.Although I may start a diary right after this show.There are 11 matches[/quote] OK, you've said you want feedback on the card, not just guesses. So... [B]Intercontinetail Championship Match[/B] Hardcore Holly (c) vs Manu [SIZE="1"]This match has been building since a little before NWO.[/SIZE] Difficult to know without the build, but they'd likely put together a passable bout. I wouldn't shove it on first, though; your drink break match should be after they've finished their first drinks. William Regal Vs Shelton Benjamin [SIZE="1"]This match broke stems from another feud between MVP and HBK where Shelton turned Face aligning himself with HBK while MVP was joined by Regal. [/SIZE] I have a real fondness for both of these guys. And yet I wouldn't expect this to go well. Regal's on record as feeling he's mostly at his best against grounded workers, and Shelton's a bouncing ball by comparison. [B]Tag Team Title Unification Match[/B] Dibiase & Rhodes(c) Vs Hawkins & Ryder(c) Vs Miz & Morrison Vs Rey Mysterio & Bourne [SIZE="1"]I decided to put this match together because I felt like my WWE didn't have enough Teams to support two tag titles and keep the matches entertaining.So I decided to unify both titles and have the champs appear on both brands.[/SIZE] OK, you're unifying the belts. But why add two extra teams into the mix? What's the storyline for that? And is this elimination or one-fall? I'd cut your extras; more on why later. [B]ECW T.V Championship Match[/B] Chavo Guerrero(c) Vs R-Truth Vs Tommy Dreamer [SIZE="1"]No big story behind this one just a standard title match[/SIZE] Again, I'm fond of all three men. Chavo/Truth would be a fun match, and Chavo/Dreamer could, if Dreamer was on all cylinders, be entertaining if entirely unspectacular. I'd still cut a guy out of it. Personally I'd cut Truth. More on why later. Santino Marella Vs Matt Hardy [SIZE="1"]This is a feud that started with the tournament I had a while back to find the ECW television Champion with Matt Eliminating Santino and then Santino costing Matt his next match.Following this they had Two other matches with Santino winning there second match and the third being a draw.They also were involved in the ECW World Heavyweight Championhip Elimination Chamber last month.This is now there fourth match.[/SIZE] Unless he's improved notably, Santino shouldn't be wrestling at Mania. [B]Money In The Bank Ladder Match[/B] Elijah Burke Vs Paul Burchill Vs Chuck Palumbo V Kofi Kingston Vs D-Lo Brown Vs Deuce [SIZE="1"]Standard MITB ladder match with Burke & Deuce being from Raw,D-Lo & Paul being from ECW, and Chuck and Kofi being from SD[/SIZE] D-Lo and Kofi are about the only people here who like to fly. It's a ladder match. I know that MiTB has traditionally included someone who's comparatively grounded - Kane, say, inaugurally - but it shouldn't be the majority. I'd use, say, Burchill, as I have a soft spot for him; bring in Mysterio and Evan Bourne. Bring in R-Truth. Much better match. [B]Grudge Match[/B] Montel Vontavious Porter Vs Shawn Michaels [SIZE="1"]These two have been feuding since the being of the year at the Royal Rumble MVP defeated Shawn in a Street Fight and then last month at No Way Out HBK won a Steel Cage Match.Now this is the tie breaker, the final match of the series who will win?[/SIZE] Wait, wait - you've had two gimmick matches so far and now you're looking to blow it off with a standard match? Or does this have a gimmick? Grudge matches, if gimmicked, sound like Street Fights to me so it's back to the beginning. Find a logical gimmick for this and book toward it. [B]ECW World Heavyweight Championship[/B] John Bradshaw Layfeild(c) vs Kane [SIZE="1"]Two of the most dominant people in ECW this year.Although both heels they both want one thing that will make them tear eachother apart.The ECW World Heavyweight Championship[/SIZE] Not gonna be great; I'd probably go for my drink break here. But not bad, considering. That said, your sole one on one title match features two heels? How's that work? [B]Grudge Match[/B] Chris Jericho Vs Triple H [SIZE="1"]These two started feuding when all titles were vacated and they were both drafted to Raw(This is how my game started) and they both claimed that they were the rightful World Heavyweight Champion.They both were in the match to name the new World Heavyweight Champion at the Royal Rumble but both came up short when it was Batista who walked away with the title.Since then these two men have been through an hell of a feud.Now they face off on the Grandest Stage of them all but the question is who will be victorious[/SIZE] Again, is this stipped? No need for it to be, but it probably should be as a blowoff. I'd enjoy it, though. [B]WWE Championship Match[/B] Umaga Vs Big Show V The Undertaker(c) [SIZE="1"]This story to this match started when The Undertaker defeated Big Show at the Royal Rumble to win the WWE Championship for the 5th time only for him and Big Show to both be attacked by Umaga after the match. At No Way Out Umaga and Big Show faced off to determine who would get the chance to face The Undertaker at Wrestlemania. That match would end in a No Contest when the lights went out and when they came back on The Undertaker cleaned house.Over the next couple of weeks of mind games from The Undertaker a Triple Threat was made for Mania.Who will walk out with the WWE Championship.Will Undertaker's mind games keep his streak and title with him or will we see the age of a new monster at Wretlemania[/SIZE] Interesting mix, but Taker shouldn't be in a triple threat at Mania. Your big build with Taker every year until you break it is the Streak. A triple threat muddies that - if Umaga pins Show, does he count as having broken it? He should; 'Taker loses the belt. If a triple threat ended the Streak, as a fan, I'd feel cheated - when it ends, he should go down clean to one man you want to build well. [B]World Heavyweight Championship Match[/B] Randy Orton Vs Edge Vs Batista(c) Vs Jeff Hardy [SIZE="1"]This match was originally set to be Jeff Hardy who won the Royal Rumble facing Batista but after Randy Orton returned and aligned himself with his old pal Edge and they defeated the duo of Batista & Jeff at NWO they were added to the Main Event.[/SIZE] I wouldn't expect Orton to add much to this match. And I LIKE Orton. But with three other guys active, his particular style would get obscured. He's been minimal in his last two Mania triple-threats - an extra man would blot him out. Out of all your title matches, however, this is the one where dropping a man out makes least sense.

[mrallan]

OK guys I have read all of your comments and I have changed a lot of the show. The Hardcore Holly Vs Manu match has been dropped to the pre-show and has been replaced by another match which I will be discussing later. Manu is set to win this match. Phantom Stranger the William Regal Vs Shelton match-up gives me a B+ most of the time and at the lowest a B. They have put on some great matches all year so I rewarded them with a match at Mania Tommy Dreamer Vs Chavo has been made as Truth has been dropped and Chavo will face Truth the week before the show Tag Title Unification match will drop one team either Mysterio and Bourne or Miz and Morrison.So that it will be a team from each brand. I had all four teams because the two teams I mentioned were feuding and putting them both in this match seemed right Elijah Burke Vs Paul Burchill Vs Gregory Helms V Kofi Kingston Vs R-Truth Vs Lance Cade is the new MITB as I felt this added more deserving mid-carders and Helms,Truth, and Kofi will give some decent spots.I am high on Burchill so I plan on keeping him in.I may replace someone with one of the two teams I removed from the title unification match Phantom I can almost guarantee to you that Santino will Wrestle at the real Wrestlemania 25 and you can hold me to that. A grudge match is a gimmick match but I have not determined what it will be yet.Sorry for the lack of info Ecw Title match is not the only singles title match anymore and the reason for the Heel Vs Heel is that the ECW brand has four main eventers to it JBL,Kane, Rey Mysterio, and Finlay and I kinda messed up by booking Finlay Vs JBL at the Rumble.I don't want to have the same match at consecutive big four matches The HHH Vs Y2J is a standard match no stip Umaga Vs Taker Vs Show stands. I don't plan on either one of these guys ending takers streak Randy Orton Vs Batista will now be the Main Event and Jeff Hardy will face off against the man that he started my game feuding with Edge I will probably do the Four Way at Backlash like WWE usually does.

[Phantom Stranger]

[QUOTE=mrallan;507143] Phantom I can almost guarentee to you that Santino will Wrestle at the real Wrestlemania 25 and you can hold me to that. [/QUOTE] Actually, I think you're right. Nonetheless, I stand by what I said. ;)

[Lita Maivia]

Needs a Women's Title Match, imo.

[mrallan]

nah i don't think any card really needs a womens title match it nice to have one but I don' t think its a need

[Lita Maivia]

I only say that because the women's match is what sells me personally on PPVs. I've never bought a PPV for a men's match. Sure I've enjoyed them and been interested in some of the matches, but without a women's match that I want to see, I've never bought a PPV.
