Santana vs HBK at WM 8 was always a match I greatly enjoyed.

Good to see Valentine vs Steamboat getting some love, probably my favourite match on that show.
As for Rude v Roberts, I was excited before watching that match and......zzzzzzzz

The first WM I saw was WM VII, and the opening match between The Rockers and Barbarian/Haku is very good, my favourite bit being The Rockers' selling and the dropkick/crossbody combo.
I also love the Ultimate Warrior/Randy Savage retirement match - it had that whole energy sapping feel about it, and you genuinely didn't know who was going to win (or at least I didn't at the time).
WM VIII - HBK v Tito Santana is a solid opener that really showcases both men's abilities, but the finish is just a bit strange. Sensational Sherri also looks pretty hot in that outfit too.
Jake Roberts and the Undertaker stands out purely for one reason, Taker sitting up from that DDT. The pop for that is incredible.
WM IX - Nothing really stands out that much, apart from again the opener, HBK v Tatanka is vastly underrated and again contains some well thought out planning and stiff moves.
And I agree, Randy Savage v Crush at WM X is a great showcase, although rather tame for a Falls Count Anywhere by today's standards, and again the finish comes across as a bit botched too!

beefcake vs perfect was good but beefcake SHOULD NOT have been the guy to end the perfect record.. such bs. who do i blame?? hehe I might be misremembering, but I think Hogan had beaten Perfect a couple months earlier on SNME. That was a few weeks after Wrestlemania VI.

Crush vs. Savage is the first that came to mind. I always liked that match... a solid ***1/4 in my book.

Odd pick: Hogan/Andre, WM 3. It's always ragged on as though it were one of the worst matches of all time. It's no technical marvel, but it tells a solid story and is definitely watchable.
Even without the iconic staredown and ending, it's a passable match.

Personally I am a fan of Brainbusters vs Strike Force from Wrestlemania 5

Demolition vs Andre & Haku WM6. The crowd was hot for it. Hart Foundation vs Nasty Boys WM7. Clear to see Bret was the next big star.

Snuka/Rude from wm6, oddly enough. Decent enough match thats a good "break" match before the main event, and the steve allen commentary is bizzarely entertaining.

Rockers v Barbarian/Haku is one of the best tag matches Ive ever seen, so that.
