WWF - Wrestlemania X8 [VHS] [2002]

A performance by Saliva singing 'Superstar' one of the 2 themes for WMX8.

1)INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE:
William Regal(c) VS Rob Van Dam.
(The best match Regal has had in WWF.Some nasty suplexes on RVD that could have crippled him)

2)EUROPEAN TITLE:
DDP(c) VS Christian.
(Better than you would expect.This is DDP's last WWF PPV match and it is quite good)

3)HARDCORE TITLE:
Maven(c) VS Goldust.
(Maven is too inexperienced to be on a Wrestlemania.He botches a few spots but it's not that bad and I suppose Maven's mistakes were down to nerves,understandable really)

4)Kurt Angle VS Kane.
(Great match.These 2 should have been higher on the card.Plenty of great moves.Angle is awesome.Only problem here is the ending is a bit sloppy)

5)NO DISQUALIFICATIONS:
Ric Flair VS The Undertaker.
(This match was brilliant,not what I expected.Lots of blood and a great run-in and spinebuster by Arn Anderson.Taker was 9-0 at Wrestlemania and was aiming for 10)

Drowning Pool perform 'Tear Away' the other WMX8 theme.Not a good performance,the crowd is silent.

6)Edge VS Booker T.
(Decent match with 2 future main eventers.Good moves from both)

7)Stone Cold Steve Austin VS Scott Hall.
(This match is horrible.I'm a big Austin fan but Hall is really washed up now and drags the match down the toilet)

8)TAG TITLES 4 TEAM ELIMINATION MATCH:
Billy & Chuck(c) VS Dudley Boys VS APA VS Hardy Boys.
(This is a decent match but a pointless ending.The Dudleys come out with Saliva playing their music)

9)The Rock VS Hollywood Hulk Hogan.
(This match was electric.The crowd reaction to this match was huge and Rock being booed makes it more interesting.Probably Hogan's best match ever)

10)WOMEN'S TITLE TRIPLE THREAT:
Jazz(c) VS Lita VS Trish Stratus.
(Much better than you would expect.Some great moves here and an awesome finishing move at the end)

11)UNDISPUTED TITLE:
'Y2J'Chris Jericho(c) VS Triple H.
(This was a good match but Stephanie managing Y2J was silly and the HHH-Steph feud overshadowed the HHH-Y2J feud.Also HHH gives Steph the Pedigree.Overall a great match)

This was one of the best Wrestlemanias ever.There were way more good matches than bad.The best matches were HHH-Y2J,Rock-Hogan,Taker-Flair and Angle-Kane.I recommend you get this and SummerSlam 2002 when it is released,they are the 2 best PPVs so far this year.

IC Championship:
William Regal Vs. Rob Van Dam 8/10
Good start to the night. Finally RVD has came to Wrestlemania!

European Championship:
Diamond Dallas Page Vs. Christian 6/10
Not worthy of Wrestlemania, at least it was short.

Harcore Championship:
Goldust Vs. Maven 8/10
A Decent harcore match. We see the 24 hour rule come in to play here!

Kane Vs. Kurt Angle 9/10
Great match up! Possiblely the best of night.

Ric Flair Vs. Undertaker 9/10
They both may be has beens but they sure do know how to put on a no holds barred match! Taker was aiming for 10-0 at wrestlemania.

Edge Vs. Booker T 7/10
A very enjoyable match ruined by it's short length.

Scott Hall Vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin 5/10
Stone Colds worst Wrestlemania match since his first at WM 12.
No wonder Hall was sacked!

Triple Threat Match
Womens Championship:
Jazz Vs. Trish Stratus Vs. Lita 6/10
Pretty decent for a womens match

Four team elimination match
Tag Team championship:
Billy and Chuck Vs. APA Vs. Dudley Boyz Vs. Hardy Boyz 5/10
The T.L.C 2 match at WM X7 makes this look like going to church!

Hulk Hogan Vs. The Rock 9/10
Maybe i'm being too genourous by giving it a 9. But it was damn good match. The crowd was just wild!

Undisputed Championship:
Triple H Vs. Chris Jericho (w/ Stephanie McMahon) 5/10
Possibley the worst wrestlemaina main event ever! Way too much hype!

I'm sure I sum it up when I say, it was a good Wrestlemania, not a great one.
