Reviewed on 2008-06-15 Eh...not worth the $40 but worth $15 I ordered this on PPV and it wasnt worth my $$$$. 1. Cade & Murdoch vs Hardys -This was a stale rivalry but this IMO was their best match. Some nice moves by the Hardys but that's it. ***1/2 2. Melina vs Mickie James -A pretty good women's match but nothing special here **3/4 3. Benoit vs MVP -This was a good match. Not as good as WM23 but still good even though a step down. ***3/4 4. ECW TITLE Mr MCmahon & shane & umaga vs Lashley -Frankly, this was ok. the ending shocked me as Vince won. i thought bobby would win but either way who won, it would $uck. **3/4 5. Batista vs Taker Best match here. Slow at first but pix up @ the end. A nice table spot and another awesome spot at the end that has 2 B seen. ****1/2 6. Cena VS hbk vs RKO vs edge a pretty fast paced match with some good spots. a very good match until cena won. ***3/4 Overall, this is worth a rental unless u find this for $10 at a store

Reviewed on 2008-05-20 The WrestleMania 23 Aftermath. This was the beginning of me trying to get back into WWE after walking away from it after quite a while. Even though, I have not see all of the events from 2007, I have seen a few including WrestleMania and I would say that this was one of the better events of that year. And from what I have heard, there was not many of them. World Tag Team Champions The Hardy Boyz vs Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch. I was excited to see the Hardy Boyz back together & from what I have heard, Cade & Murdoch are solid as well. The overall match was solid too and it was a great way to begin the show with some good wrestling and tag team action. Women's Champion Melina vs Mickie James. NOW, THIS is the match that we should have gotten at WrestleMania 23 instead of that crap that they put before the main event. For women standards, this was a good back and forth contest between two talented divas. United States Champion Chris Benoit vs M.V.P. Their WrestleMania rematch was just as good if not better than their Mania match mostly because they were given more time to perform. The storytelling was there as M.V.P. has truly improved from his previous encounter with Benoit and we all know the quality that Benoit can bring to a match. ECW Champion Bobby Lashley vs Umaga, Shane & Vince McMahon. This is the only match on the card that is not good at all. In fact, this match was a slap in the face to the great legacy of ECW. Most of the contest is just Umaga & Shane doing all the work till Lashley has nothing left and Vince comes in and wins the title. WHAT A JOKE Last Man Standing Match: World Heavyweight Champion The Undertaker vs Batista. Taker works his magic and has another awesome battle with Batista that was actually better than their WrestleMania encounter. Both men delivered good storytelling by working on their injuries and delivered the same back and forth power moves that they displayed at WrestleMania. Undertaker & Batista take two huge bumps in this match. One including a leg drop by Taker through the announce table and the other is the finish of the match. While, I would have preferred a clear winner, this was truly the best match on the card and one of the better Last Man Standing matches. WWE Champion John Cena vs Shawn Michaels vs Edge vs Randy Orton. This was a great main event and a good way to close the show. As most fatal four way matches should be, this one has frenzied action and the pace never lets up. The story was interesting each time as you would witness the end of Rated RKO & as well as HBK having the title slip through his fingers once again. Despite what happens in the last few minutes and who got their hand raised, the overall match was solid to forgive it. The bottom line for Backlash was the fact that this event had a better match quality than WrestleMania 23. Other than the ECW title, every match was solid and was able to provide their own story instead of getting overshadowed the previous matches. Definitely recommended.

Reviewed on 2007-12-18 The aftermath of Wrestlemania Tonight is the aftermatch or aftermath of Wrestlemania 23. World Tag Team Championship match The Hardys vs. Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch The crowd is really into the Hardys in this match. They started the show off really cool. The both of them showed off their moves and double team moves. Cade and Murdoch looked cool the match also. Out of their rivalry I think this is their best match. 8/10 WWE Women Championship match Melina vs. Mickie James This match was a little disappointing but it was better than the match at Wrestlemania 23. Melina is a good champion and I'm glad they gave the belt to her. Mickie did her usual things while Melina looked good to. Them doing that splits thing was so good I gave it a liitle more ratings. 6/10 WWE United States Championship match Chris Benoit vs. MVP I really liked this match but it wasn't as good as their match at Wrestlemania. MVP dominated most of the match. MVP really showed he is a very talented wrestler. Benoit brought his A game as usual and this didn't bore me. 7.5/10 3 on 1 Handicap match ECW Championship Bobby Lashley vs. Umaga, Shane, and Mr. Mcmahon I wasn't really looking towards this match but it was kind of exciting. Vince stayed out of the ring while Shane and Umaga did all of the work. Bobby fended off the both of them and made this match good enough to watch. I thought Lashley was going to win after he got hit with the belt and got splashed but no. Vince came after the other splah to win the belt. 7/10 Last Man Standing match World Heavyweight Championship match Batista vs. The Undertaker I'm so glad to see The Undertaker champion again. These two guys put on match of the night and entertained everyone that watched this event. It got really exciting when Undertaker went hardcore and leg drop Batista while he was on the announce table. I think they also used a chair and the steel steps. Towards the end Batista spears them both off the stage and gave us a draw, but still a fantastic match. 9.5/10 Fatal Four Way match WWE Championship match Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena This was a wild match. I was rooting for Randy Orton in this match. Everyone brawled with eachother. It real good towards the end when everyone hit there finishing moves. When Shawn hit the superkick I thought he would win but when cena fell on Orton and got the pinfall I was like "WHAT'. Still a good match. 9/10 This was a good ppv following Wrestlemania 23.

Reviewed on 2007-08-21 WM23 aftermath This was a good follow up to WM. The matches were good for the most part. The main event was disappointment for me. In fact, it made me mad. World Tag Team Championship Match The Hardy's vs. Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch Possibly the best match on the card. But really, when do the Hardy's bring their worst to a ppv? They had a dam good match with the underated Cade & Murdoch. This tag match was almost perfect. The only thing I'm not feeling is Murdoch tryin to pull of the Canadian Destroyer. He should stop. 5/5 Women's Championship Match Melina vs. Mickie James A boring match. These two were off tonight to me. There really wasn't anything special in this match. Thats probably the reason why Candice is getting shots before Mickie now. 2/5 United States Championship Match Chris Benoit vs. MVP Their Wrestlmania match was magic. This one didn't capture the magic. Still a good match. Some decent wrestling, counters, and suplexes. But just not as good as thier last encounter. 3.5/5 3 on 1 Handicapp Match for the ECW Title Vince, Shane, & Umaga vs. Lashley First of all, the match had its good points. Lashley basically destroying Shane. With high impact slams. Umaga got in a couple of good spots. And thats about it. What I dont like. Umaga being used as a stooge in handicapp matches. When he was just put over as the unstoppable monster. Then Vince becoming ecw champ. Is that title a joke now or what? 3/5 Last Man Standing Match for the Heavyweight Title Undertaker vs. Batista Undertaker is one of the very few that brings out the best in Batista. This was a real good match. Batista took a legdrop through the announce table. This match was almost over so many times. One of the best Last Man Standing Matches ever. It just should have had a clean ending, with a clear winner. 5/5 Fatal 4 way for the WWE Title Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena This was a very good match. Everybody got they spots in this one. Except the ending was just so disappointing if your not a Cena fan. That title needs to change hands already. Still a good match even if you hate cena. 4/5

Reviewed on 2007-07-14 Good PPV With A Hilarious Ending! Let's get right to it! The Hardys Vs. Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch (World Tag Team Championship Match) - This wasn't a great tag team bout but it didn't suck either. Still, it got the crowd into the PPV as the ovation the Hardys received was akin to what rock stars get! Hardys retain the tag gold at this point. Melina Vs. Mickie James (WWE Women's Title Match) - This wasn't the greatest women's bout BUT this is what we should've got at WrestleMania 23 instead of Ashley Vs. Melina as this match was WAY better in comparison! At least neither had to take their clothes off to get attention! True, the current champ Candice Michelle did BUT at least she worked on being a good performer too. I digress, back to the match. These two women had a surprisingly physical bout with one funny spot of them trading punches with each other while both were doing a split! Johnny Nitro and Kenny Dysktra (the current real-life boyfriends of the respective ladies in this match) are two lucky men! Ends with Melina doing the old "Scopion Deathdrop" on Mickie to retain. Chris Benoit Vs. MVP (WWE United States Championship) - This one was a tough one to review. The way I got through it is that Chris Benoit was a murderer but he was also one of the best ever in the ring. Recent news of his brain condition has eased my concious somewhat however so I can view this match a lot easier now though still missing the happiness I once had for his matches. Anyway, back to the match, this match with MVP proves that Chris was not only a great performer but he could make his opponent look great. MVP went toe to toe with his real life trainer (yes, MVP was actually part-trained by Benoit to wrestle in real life). Chris Benoit, like him or not, made MVP look the best he's ever looked both here and at WrestleMania 23 and started him on the run he's on now. As for this match, Benoit actually gets in both his Crippler Crossface and his Sharpshooter but MVP either countered or got to the ropes. He even shocked the fans in Atlanta (ironically, the place that Benoit would end his life along with his wife and son) when he got Benoit to almost tap to a submission hold! Ends when Benoit caught MVP in a basic cradle to retain the U.S. title. Bobby Lashley Vs. Mr. McMahon, Shane McMahon & Umaga (ECW Heavyweight Title Match/3 on 1 Handicap) - Easily the weakest match on the card! They were really urinating on the ECW legacy here! At least now, as I write this, they got two real wrestlers in CM Punk and Johnny Nitro going for the title! Anyway, it ends with Vince McMahon getting the pin after Umaga devestates Lashley with two big splashes from the top rope! The Undertaker Vs. Batista (World Heavyweight Championship/Last Man Standing) - Despite the draw ending, this match was easily the best on the card! The Undertaker beat the crap out of Batista but "The Animal", to his credit, came back to deliver some heavy punishment of his own. Ends when Batista spears UT off the entry stage through some electrical stuff that causes part of the stage to fall! Excellent bout despite the ending. John Cena Vs. Shawn Michaels Vs. Edge Vs. Randy Orton (Fatal Fourway/WWE Title Match) - This was a wild way to end this card! All four men had their moments in this match. Most fans have decried the ending as dumb BUT I actually found it humorous! When I saw Shawn hit his superkick on Cena, I actually cheered for a moment until I realized that Cena landed on top of Randy Orton (who had been put down by Edge's spear tackle earlier) for an accidental pin! I personally busted out laughing! Not just at the ending but the reaction of the Atlanta crowd! Some were cheering but some weren't and the ones that weren't had some really funny reactions to Cena winning in this way. While not the best ending, definitely one of the funniest endings! Overall, its worth a buy!
