Welcome to www.wrestlingnewsdesk.com's first live coverage of Wrestlemania. We will change the headline throughout the show until the show is over, at which point we'll post the headline Full Report.
 
Kane won the pre-show Battle Royal, so count on him demolishing Chavo Guerrero for the ECW Title later in the night.
 
JBL pinned Fit Finlay in a Belfast Brawl that was stiff but disappointing.
 
CM Punk won the Money In The Bank Ladder Match. Matt Hardy did a run-in, which he wanted everyone to know in advance obviously if you check out the internet, and stopped MVP from winning. Punk and Jericho were battling for the briefcase. Surprise finish. I think Shelton Benjamin was the star of the match.
Batista pinned Umaga in a match no one will remember.
 
Kane pinned Chavo Guerrero to become the new ECW Champion in moments. Total squash. Chokeslam, then the 1-2-3.

Shawn Michaels pinned Ric Flair in about 20 minutes after mouthing the words "I'm sorry, I love you..." and hitting Sweet Chin Music. This was really good. Not the super-charged emotional responses everyone was expecting and counting on. Really good, though. They can make it memorable if they play it up big on tv.
 
In a match that saw a total power failure happen in the middle, Beth Phoenix pinned Maria, so Beth and Melina beat Maria and Ashley Massaro. Beth is just so far and above all other females.  Lawler decked Santino. Snoop Dog creamed Santino with a clothesline afterwards and got to kiss Maria.

Randy Orton retained the WWE Title by pinning John Cena after giving HHH the concussion kick when HHH covered Cena after a Pedigree. Solid match.

Floyd Mayweather used brass knuckles to knock out Big Show in the best match so far of the night. This was great. Show was beating up all of Mayweather's posse. The guy taking the serious beating was Charles "The Hammer" Evans, who was in OVW Developmental for a long time. Mayweather was great. They got their money's worth on this one.

Kim Kardashian came out and announced a Citrus Bowl record attendance of 74,635.
 
The Undertaker defeated Edge via tap out for the Smackdown World Title in a tremendous main event. It took a little time to get going, but once they got into the false finishes, it was really good. Edge hit a spear, Taker wrapped him up in the choke from underneath. Excellent finish to the show.
