WRESTLEMANIA, Year 3

Here we go! It's my 3rd 'Mania and the end of the WCW/WWF era. Tomorrow night on Raw, a new day will dawn. A-Train is not able to compete in the main event due to personal issues. The WWF Title will now be defended in a triple threat match.

Match 1. RVD vs. Christian  Intercontinental Championship
Christian propped RVD up on the top rope. He then hit a hurricanrana from the top. RVD was able to recover and hit an arm drag on Christian. RVD then hit the 5-star Frog Splash. Christian kicked out at 2. RVD hit a heel kick to the back of the head of Christian. He then hit another 5-star Frog Splash. That still wasn't enough to keep Christian down. RVD ran towards Christian, but he was caught in a school boy. Christian got the 3 count and won the title.

Match 2. Extreme Rules - Kane and RVD vs. The Hardy Boys  Tag Team Championship
Due to The Outsiders not recovering from their injuries, they are stripped of the belts. This match will determine who the new tag champs will be. RVD and Kane were in control early. RVD hit Matt with a hurricanrana from the top rope. RVD then left the ring and pulled out a chair while Kane hit the chokeslam on Jeff. A ladder, crutch and title belt were also involved. The match ended with RVD pinning Matt after a headbutt against the railing.

Match 3. 4-way - Booker vs. Kennedy vs. JBL vs. Edge  United States Championship
Edge was taking on JBL. He his a heel kick and then a German suplex. All 4 men were flying around the ring, attacking each other. Edge flipped Kennedy over his head and then the Edge-o-matic. Kennedy got up and hit the Mic Check on Booker. Edge won the belt after he hit Booker with a spear from the top rope.

Match 4. Big Show vs. Undertaker  WCW Championship
Taker was on offense for most of the match. Taker hit Show with the Last Ride. He then picked Show back up and landed the Tombstone. Show was able to hit a low blow to stop Taker's momentum. Show went for the Showstopper but Taker reversed it. Taker hit another Tombstone and won.

After the match, Big Show was taken away on a stretcher.

Match 5. Hell in a Cell - Rock vs. Brock Lesnar
This WWF vs. WCW match is the last of WCW's existence. Lesnar had Rock up for the F5 but Rock broke out of it. Rock then went for the Rock Bottom but Brock blocked it. Brock was able to hit the F5. He went for the pin but got a 2 count. He then hit a German suplex and got another 2 count. Rock came back with a Rock Bottom. Brock landed a pinning fisherman suplex and won.

Main Event. Austin vs. Triple H vs. Goldberg  WWF Championship
Goldberg was attacked from behind by Triple H before the match started. This match lasted 16:19 and it was entertaining the whole time. Triple H needed an advantage and brought in a chair. This match is every man for himself, but Goldberg and Austin hit a double DDT on Triple H. Goldberg hit his swinging neckbreaker on Triple H. Austin accidently knocked out the ref. He turned around and received a spear from Goldberg. The Game got up and hit Goldberg with his signature spine buster. He then landed the Pedigree. Austin was outside the ring recovering, but Triple H pinned Goldberg for the win.

After the match, a WWF official checked on Goldberg.

Recap: From the IC Title match to the WWF Title match, this WrestleMania was amazing. It's a sad moment to close WrestleMania with an injury.
