"...vs. The Greatest Show of All Time"

...in which I (briefly) discuss the greatest pro wrestling event I've ever attended LIVE.



I was live for The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania 25 in Houston, TX. When that show was over, I was certain that I would never enjoy a LIVE wrestling show as much again. Shawn Michaels was my favorite wrestler of all time and what he and the Undertaker did that night was something I didn't think I'd ever see again.

As far as I was concerned, the business had peaked for me as a fan.

Tonight's PPV changed that. I drove twelve hours to this show. I only had three hours of sleep last night. Right now, I am emotionally and physically drained. This show was the most fun that I've ever had at a wrestling show. I enjoyed every single thing about this show (except for the women's match, but I understand its purpose on the card). I think my excitement for Punk winning at the end wasn't necessarily because he won but because they actually did what no one thought they would do. An absolutely phenomenal show, and I strongly recommend the replay to anyone who didn't watch it live. I will be buying this DVD when it comes out.

What a night!
