The angle that ended with the triple threat was a mess basically cos they had nothing for Orton to do so shoehorned him in. Match was good though and Mysterio was always going to win as a tribute to Guerrero. Batista being injured changed a lot of plans as I think Mysterio would’ve gone over Batista otherwise.
Cena vs HHH is still one of the best crowds I can remember for a Wrestlemania main event. JR said in commentary about the big fight feel and the crowd were hot as hell. Was definitely the right main event for the time. Plus they wanted Cena to go over HHH as they needed to establish him as the absolute top guy and HHH was the gatekeeper.
Henry had only been back from OVW a month at the rumble, he get a good push and his fued with The Undertaker and Angle elevated him, but he wasn’t ready to be the champ Mysterio beat.
Vince vs HBK was good, and the angle led to reforming DX so wouldn’t make any sense of HHH teamed with Vince.
The hardcore match was a real throwback and truly cemented Edge as being legit ready for the main event. Plus flaming tables!!!
Overall, WM22 did a good job in elevating Edge,Henry, Cena and Mysterio. It paved the way for HHH and HBK to reform DX especially as HHH got a face reaction in the main event. And RVD used money in the bank at one night stand for feel good moment of the year. I wouldn’t change it because it laid the groundwork for the next year.
