Did anyone catch the whole thing? I forgot it was on until I heard my girlfriend laughing at The Rock's Fruity Pebbles shirts joke. The only part I watched was HHH vs Undertaker. HHH enterence was Metallica "For Whom The Bell Tolls." The funniest thing I have ever saw was Undertakers enterence.
Here, it was pre-empted for Vikings preseason football and rescheduled to a time when I totally forgot it was on, so I also missed it. YouTube provided this clip:
I'm glad that version wasn't on the DVD (which we just got with our 7-11 Slurpee points).
Some people on Facebook posted that they were watching Wrestlemania and I didn't have the heart to tell them it happened back in April.
I was very underwhelmed by this supposed "classic" match. It was horribly slow and plodding. HHH did way too much stalling and did a lot of sitting around when he should have been pinning UT. They were trying to sell that he had no remorse, but he sure took his time.

Taker played that -- or was genuine -- like he was wracked in suffering. The spinebuster off the stairs onto the table was sick and allowed Hunter to set the pace afterward.
Taker's performance (or survival) should have been saved for his last (WM) match. Instead of trainers, druids carry his barely living body back to the dark lands. And Taker is never seen again.

"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone." --- Bart Giamatti, on baseball
I once saw an Owen Hart fake title change in the Summer of 94 (before SummerSlam). It was at a TV taping and Owen celebrated for a long time with the belt, the heels came out the the ring and put him on their shoulders, the cameramen were in the ring.
