WWE Great American Bash 2005

Great

It was the last great American bash for Eddie he had to keep the sercet from his late son

Christian vs Booker was good thats all.CLB should really be in the world title hunt or at least US champ.Benoit vs OJ, yawn. I've seen 90% of OJ's matches and I couldnt tell you a move he does. I've tried to get behind JBL, and I just cant. Boring in and out of the ring

Great ppv,fast shipping!!!!

good

This was my first LIVE PPV that I had seen, and not just from the DVD. This was a pretty good PPV, with the exception of a few matches.Tag Team Championship: MNM(C)w/ Melina vs Road Warrior Animal and HeidenreichThis was a pretty good tag team match. It was pretty fast paced and we got to see a true tag team legend wrestle. LOD wins it with the Doomsday Device, despite MNM cheating their way through the match. I am glad the WWE is giving Animal one last shining moment and finally giving Heidenreich a title.Match Score: 7/10Christian vs Booker T w/ SharmelThis was a very good match from two excellent competitors, and was good for what it was worth. It was pretty exciting. Booker wins it with a flying scissor kick off the second rope. Pretty cool-looking. I think the crowd was in it for Christian more than Booker, though.Match Score: 8/10US Title Match:OJ(c) vs Chris BenoitA decent match for the US gold. Benoit pretty much dominated most of the match until the end, when OJ cracked his head over the "extremely painful" exposed turnbuckle for the win. Pretty short match.Match Score: 6/10Six-man Tag: The Mexicools vs the BWOThe Mexicools came down to the ring riding their Juan Deere's, while the BWO comes out riding Big Wheel Tricycles. Pretty funny entrance. Juve really was the only one who kept this match even remotely exciting. Mexicools win it after Super Crazy did this pretty awesome spring board moonsault and Psychosis hits a flying leg drop. Nova and Stevie are pretty good entertainers, but I do NOT know how the Blue Meanie has a job.Match Score: 5/10#1 Contendership match for the World Heavyweight Championship: Hassan w/Davari and sympathizers vs The UndertakerThis, in my view, was the most important match of the night, and it was very good.Hassan comes out being carried by the sympathizers like a king. The sympathizers are attaking 'Taker left and right while Hassan is distracting the ref. 'Taker even got choked by a wire like last time. 'Taker eventually gets the upper hand and wins it with a Chokeslam. Afterwards, the sympathizers storm the ring and 'Taker cleans house. After the Sympathizers are all incompacitated, 'Taker throws Davari through the side of the announce table. Undertaker then drags Hassan up the entrance ramp, moves some metal grating and gives Haasan the last ride through the stage.Match Score: 8.5/10Bra and Panties Match: Torrie vs Melina Special Referee: Candice MichelleA pretty good womans match, more violent then usual. A pretty back-and-forth match. Melina and Torrie are both shirtless when Melina gets the win by ripping off Torrie's pants. Melina then hit a cheap shot on Candice, who proceeded to tear off melina's pants, then strip herself. A pretty good womans match, because I love Torrie.Match Score: 6.5/10Eddie Guerrero vs Rey MysterioThe match of the night. Eddie plays the bad guy better than anyone else in wrestling today, since the Rock during his Corperation days. This was a pretty back-and-forth match, with Rey dominating the begining and Eddie Dominating the end. Just when we all thought Rey was down and out after the Frog Splash, He quickly rolls up Eddie for the win after a fast count from the ref. Eddie could not believe it and neither could I. Rey stole yet another one after a great match.Match Score: 9/10World Heavyweight Championship Match: Batista(c) vs JBL w/OJThis may have been the worst singles match of the night. Very boring. Ends with DQ from Batista after OJ brings a chair in and Batista takes it and hits JBL. The only good part was Batista going crazy and hitting OJ and JBL 20 times each with chair, and then gives them both Batista Bombs.Match Score: 6/10I would say a decent PPV, with a few memoriable parts.

I highly disagree with reviewers who said this is the worst PPV of all time. Its not the greatest PPV they ever put on but its diffently not the worst one ive ever seen.MNM VS Animal and Heidenrich: I dont know why the called this LOD. Animal is out of shape but can still wrestle. The match was a fun opener but ruined by commentary. Cole says that LOD never won the Smackdown tag titles (not crap since Hawk died a few years back) and what a coo it would be if they could win it for Hawk. Meaning, the new LOD will win the tag titles at least for a few weeks. Good match but the ending didnt send chills up my spine like it did to Michael Cole.Booker T VS Christian: Match of the night. I think someone called this match average but its way better then average. Ill admit Christian is not the greatest wrestler ever but can put on a match sometimes. This is one of those times. I loved the ending to the match.Chris Benoit VS Orlando Jordan: This is where the show gets boring. I hated Jordans run as US champion because he never did anything. Of course, a month later Benoit would destory Jordan in 30 seconds for the title. This match though was far too long.The Undertaker VS Mohammed Hassan: Dumb match. The ending though was something to see.Mexicools VS BWO: They gave 3 talented wrestlers (Mexicools) five minutes to wrestle. StupidEddie Guerrero VS Rey Mysterio: Great story to lead up to this match. The match ended out of nowheres but was a great match. They'd have a even better match at Summerslam but still a good match.Melina VS Torrie Wilson: BATHROOM BREAK!!!!!JBL VS Batista: Loved JBL's entrance here. The match was boring and not the best match ive seen. Ending suckedOverall, a good PPV with a few bad matches. I saw a house saw with mostly the same card and it was way better then this PPV. Also, Ric Flair-Sting was an extra on the dvd and a reason why I bought the dvd. It was a good match but nothing to speical.
