Damn... should have bought the webcast. Oh well, has the fans turned on anyone yet?

Keller agrees with me.

WINNER: Undertaker in 16:00 to capture the World Hvt. Title.

STAR RATING: ***1/2 -- Really good. They included moves they were capable of without any down time, filler, or overambitious spots that could lead to embarassment or disaster. Taker carried the vast majority of the action of course, but Batista gets credit for not screwing anything up and looking decent throughout. The big spots were designed well and managed to not seem anticlimactic despite the wild spots in the opener. A very well designed match.

and wow, Caldwell loved it even more.

WINNER: Undertaker in 16:00. Absolutely amazing pro wrestling match that came together perfectly. Never a dull moment, Batista stepped up in a shocking and newsworthy way, the crowd was electric, and Taker showed us why he's one of the best big match wrestlers in the history of the company. (****1/2)

RVD was basicly the only one getting anything from the crowd. nice pop for the frog splash.

Between him and Kotenks, a pretty effective one.  My heart beat a little faster for a second.

Yeah, I have to admit, before I seen the messages indiciting that the match was still in progress, I was fooled as well.

And with that being said, if Batista would have defeated Undertaker at WrestleMania, needless to say, I would imagine, in all likely hood, the audience would have booed him out of the building.

For some reason I think they pulled the Woman's Title off the card. Seriously, do you think that Vince would put two garbage wrestlers after him, Trump, and his man crush?bulletproofcow

lookes like they will be draging out the battle of the billionares match

Batista was being booed a lot. when they were exchanging punches, they were booing when Batista hit and cheering when Taker hit. but later after Batista spinebustered Taker thru the ECW table (it was funny seeing Joey and Tazz sitting during the ECW match with no table) the crowd was really into it and Batista got a huge pop for the Batista bomb.

Keller changed his rating for Taker/Tista

WINNER: Undertaker in 16:00 to capture the World Hvt. Title.

Caldwell's live report or Keller's live report. both are two of the more famous wrestling reporters. especially Keller.

No one does.

this match has the most obvious outcome I think in wrestling history. We don't even need leaked info to know who gonna win.

The crowd is getting shower with the Trump's money!!!KevyR

I want some of that money! Personally I want to see Trump bald, but in reality it's not going to happen.

Didn't Keller give a Hulk Hogan match 5 stars?Kotenks

no, he gave HBK/Hogan like 4 1/2 tho.

I'm just getting results from 411Mania and the guy doing it (Arnold Furious) isn't actually reviewing the matches (except for a few little comments).

what did he give hogan/rock at WM x8??? That deserves a 5/5 no matter how lame. Just the matchup was enought to give it a hig score.

i've never seen Keller give a 5 star except for maybe Joe/Styles/Daniels I. i don't think he rated Hogan/Rock higher than 4 stars.

Haha... Austin went to a 9 count and stop. The guys were still down too.

Edit: Austin got knock out by Umaga and Shane getting his licks in. Austin got knock out after gougin Umaga eyes and I don't think he knew who he hit.
