WWE Judgement Day 2005
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Target Center
Date: May 22nd, 2005

Heat Match:
Nunzio vs Akio
Winner: Nunzio (3:28)

So, the event starts, and there's no pyro whatsoever, just a straight cut to MnM's entrance. Kinda cack.

1. Tag Titles:
MnM (c) vs Hardcore Holly & Charlie Haas
My Prediction: MnM
Winners: MnM (8:06)
Match Rating: 8/10 - pretty good match, especially considering I thought it'd be awful. Some decent spots, namely from Haas, although I wasn't too keen on the predictable screwjob finish.

So, the Carlito match is about to start and then Sky go and have a sodding technical fault. Great.

2. Carlito vs The Big Show
My Prediction: The Big Show
Winner: Carlito (4:42)
Match Rating: 6/10 - Nothing special at all, really. Nice to see Morgan hit an F5, though. Oh, and damn you, Heavy Metal, convincing me to change my prediction.

3. Cruiserweight Title:
Paul London (c) vs Chavo Guerrero
My Prediction: Paul London
Winner: Paul London (10:41)
Match Rating: 8.5/10 - Some really nice spots here, but I wished it was a bit longer and had more high-flying action.

4. Booker T vs Kurt Angle
My Prediction: Kurt Angle
Winner: Booker T (14:01)
Match Rating: 8.5/10 - an entertaining, technical bout, but the ending seemed really out of nowhere o_O.

5. US Title:
Orlando Jordan vs Heidenreich
My Prediction: Heidenreich
Winner: Orlando Jordan (4:54)
Match Rating: 6/10 - Fairly crappy match, as expected, and it ended with a DDT of all moves. The girl constantly screaming outside the ring didn't help either >_<

6. Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio
My Prediction: Eddie Guerrero
Winner: Rey Mysterio via DQ (18:31)
Match Rating: 8.5/10 - Not as good as the Halloween Havoc 1997 match that they promised to top, but good nonetheless.

7. WWE Title:
John Cena (c) vs JBL
My Prediction: John Cena
Winner: John Cena (22:44)
Match Rating: 9/10 - Surprisingly match of the night. I didn't expect much, but it surprised me. A bunch of great spots, and both men were bloodied insanely. Shame it had such a poor ending though. Cena should've thrown JBL through the glass and THEN had him say "I Quit".

Not a great PPV, as has become natural with WWE.

Reefer, you overrate matches.

That is all.

Edge is a brave and trusting man....

The WWE focuses more on looks more than talent in the womens division. Although this is good in a way, it is obviously bad if you actually want to watch a wrestling match. Its a shame that the WWE wastes time with things like the Diva search when they could actually have wrestling in that time slot. There are some good womens wrestlers like Victoria and Molly Holly, but unfortunatley Molly has left and Victoria isnt getting any airtime because of Lingerie Pillow Fights, which i enjoy to an extent as any male would, but it would be nice to see a good womens match once in a while. The best womens match in recent history that i can think of was Lita Vs Trish for the Women's title when Y2J was GM after Survivor Series.

Speaking of Divas...Maria Kanellis...how dumb have they made her lately...on last weeks RAW...to Christian and Tyson Tomko after they got their asses kicked by Batista..."Are you hurt?"

True dat. Those crappy diva segments they had at No Way Out were sodding awful.

Indeed.

It was a better PPV than the majority of Smackdown PPV's over the past year...mainly thanks to the main event...more precisely JBL not winning

even though the lowest mark a match received from you was a 6?
