WWE Home Video
Released: May 2009

WWE WrestleMania 25 will go down as one of the most memorable WWE PPV events in history, as it was a phenomenal show from top-to-bottom.  That great show and much more have now come out on this 3-disc DVD release.

This year marked a momentous occasion, the 25th anniversary of WrestleMania, and WWE has made certain that they did this release justice.

For starters, the actual WrestleMania 25 event is shown here in its entirety, with great audio and video clarity.

The matches are top-notch throughout, with great moments including the Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels match, Money in the Bank Ladder Match, Chris Jericho vs. Ricky Steamboat and company, etc.

The PPY itself is a joy to go back and watch again, but the big extra here is the 2009 WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, as well as past WrestleMania highlight clips.

When you watch the Hall of Fame ceremony on TV, you get a one-hour edited version.  Here though instead, you get the entire ceremony, meaning you can watch all of the inductions including KoKo B. Ware, as well as the whole speech by Stone Cold Steve Austin.

This is a great addition which really makes this release worth picking up.  I just wish the wrestlers were given more time to talk up on the stage during this to be honest.

The bottom line is that WWE WrestleMania 25 is a must-buy on DVD for any wrestling fan, as the show is a piece of history, as is the great Hall of Fame ceremony that goes along with it.

Content: 9.5 Hands-down the best wrestling PPV of the year.

Video: 9.0
The video transfer looks fantastic.

Audio: 9.0
Crystal clear sound effects and such, great stuff.

Extras: 9.0
Prior WrestleMania clips are a nice touch, but the real meat is the Hall of Fame ceremony.

Final Score: 9.2
