I'm sure I'll be called a hypocrite for making a thread outside of the WM25 thread, but lets be honest. Along with such matches as Hart vs Austin, Angle vs Michaels, and Rock vs Austin, I think this match was an absolute classic. And therefor, totally deserves it's own thread.
Although, if the Mods think different, I really don't have a say in that. But for the time being, shall we discuss the damn near perfect match up we all had the privilage of viewing last night?

It was great, watching Live was crazy, and it totally deserves all credit it gets, but it shouldn't be done again unless one turns heel

Anyone else think that HBK had it after that second Sweet Chin Music? BTW, both the last SCM and Tombstone were fantastic.

Both Michaels and Taker took kicks to the face like a ing champ last night. And for the record, as nasty as Undertaker's landing on the outside was, Shawn's moonsault was just as nasty. I seriously thought he landed right on his arm.

I ordered Wrestlemania for this match and it delivered HUGE. The entrances were incredible, with Taker coming out of hell and Shawn coming down from the rafters all in white. Really cool. The match started out great with Shawn going after the leg and Taker looking to kill him.
Then Taker went for the dive and when he landed, I thought he broke his neck. We've seen guys get hurt from easier looking falls, and for Taker to come out of that uninjured was amazing. The entire match kicked up after that.
I knew Taker would kick out of the first SCM, because well, he's the Undertaker and we're at Mania. But I NEVER thought Shawn would kick out of the tombstone. When he did that, I jumped up and down and marked out like an 8 year old girl at a Hannah Montana concert. I thought the streak was over after the second SCM, but it wasn't. The moonsault into the final tombstone was an extremely creative and incredible finish.
This will be the Match of the Year, no doubt. This is now my favorite Wrestlemania match ever, between 2 of my favorite wrestlers ever, and I think it will be talked about for a long, long time.

The only issue I had with the match was the aftermath. Of any match in WM history, that match deserved a standing ovation. HBK deserved just as much reconition after the match as Undertaker.
I said this last night and I'll say it until the day I die. The only difference between HBK and Undertaker's performance last night was that Undertaker won. Beyond that, an absolutly breath taking match.

A truly great match. Did anyone else get a kick out of Taker's face after the first Tombstone, it was priceless.

HBK/UT from WM25 IS WM25. It has the "Dark Knight" quality that I've been looking for.

One of the greatest matches ever. Truly showing why these two are legends and deserve to be called so.

Don't get me wrong, as I really enjoyed the WHC match. Out of the two title matches, that would should have closed the show.
