The match at WM19 was my favourite. Overall that event was one of my fave Manias but the Austin/Rock match steals the show. Not only does The Rock finally get that victory over Austin but it was probably the best "wrestling" match they had out the series.
The WM 15 match was full of run-ins and yes I know 17 had the amazing Austin heel turn but the match at 19 just edges it for me.
Also as this was Austin's last match then it was a pretty fitting way to go out. An epic wrestling classic against his long time rival where he just comes up short.
And I love the poignant moment just as Rock scores the pinfall, he shoves the ref out the way and whispers something to Austin. If you've seen documentary/movie about WM 19 which is a bonus feature on the WM 20 DVD then you'll know Rock tells Austin he loves him and he'll miss him. Nice touch Rock.
