vs. Chris Jericho - Although this match didn't have the emotional story attachment to like their previous one, this match is right up there with their WM19 match in my opinion as they performed such a great wrestling match with each man countering each others moves & even displaying a couple of rarely seen moves like Jericho's own mix of an indian...oops, I mean "native american" deathlock & a figure four and HBK doing an armbar while hanging over the top to yank the arm down. One heavily athletic contest.

D-Generation X vs. Legacy - Damn, DX sure knew how to make an entrance to introduce their latest run as a team under "The DX Army" & also marks the in-return of Shawn Michaels since WrestleMania. This tag match was completely different than the previous one as this was a very strong match from start to finish as Legacy not only held their own here against DX but delivered a real breakout performance as this match had nice wresting, a good brawl on the outside, and enough time to materialize into something special as the crowd was hot from start to finish. This is one of those matches where although Dibiase & Rhodes lost, they left with more credibility than they did coming into it.

No DQ/No Count Out Match vs. Kane - This match was under the same stipulations as the upcoming WrestleMania match against Kane's brother, Undertaker, where you could only win via pinfall or submission. Kane showed that he had the power advantage early while HBK attempted various submissions like the crossface & anklelock. The big story here was the appearance of Undertaker in the match before HBK was able to defeat Kane in what did turn out to be his last match on RAW.

Streak vs. Career Match vs. Undertaker - Seeing how this is only the fourth time in WrestleMania history & the first time in 15 years that a non-title match is the final match at WrestleMania, you could tell that the quality they delivered last year was enough to warrant the closing position. Although these two put on such a memorable classic last year, they were able to put on another classic but different match this year as the stipulations of only winning by pinfall/submission along with the story of Shawn being so obsessed with ending the streak that he risked his own career...this match was more intense than the last one right from the opening moment when Shawn did Taker's trademark signature "throat slash" at the start. Taker hurt his leg early in the match giving Shawn the advantage by heavily working over that leg with various moves like the figure four & even the anklelock. Things really picked up from here with such moments as Shawn getting the tombstone on the floor, HBK executing a moonsault that you have to see to believe, and being able to counter moves from Undertaker that nobody else was able to counter before him while Taker himself was able to keep getting up from everything Shawn delivered. I don't want to reveal the ending but the match had such an effect on Taker to the point where he showed more emotion towards Shawn that we've seen from "The Dead Man" before Shawn refused to go out without a fight. As what has been the case with most of the matches here, keep watching after the match as you got got a very emotional WrestleMania moment.

Can't really argue here as each match was quality in it's own right so for s DVD as this low of a price, can't go wrong.
