I actually have this one recorded on a tape somewhere. It was kind of an odd pay-per-view looking back. for some reason, they switched between who was wrestling for Hardcore title and who was wrestling for the IC title, both where the New Age Outlaws. Big Show lost his match agaisnt Mankind, meaning he couldn't be the special guest ref for the main event, so Vince slapped him and Show quit the Corporation. Chyna turned on Kane and went back with Triple H, then Triple H and Chyna both turned on X-Pac and joined the Corporation, Kane left the Corporation as a result. They had that battle royal on Heat to see who would wrestle for the tag titles. Instead of Mark Henry and D'Lo Brown (who I think it supposed to be except Henry got injured) it was D'Lo and Test. Then it had that disapointing Hell in a Cell match that ended with the Undertaker and the Brood apparently killing the Bossman. At first I was like... And then I was like...

But, it had the epic, Rocky-like encounter between Bart Gunn and Butterbean. Don't forget Big Show's WrestleMania debut, where he just had the wind knocked out of his sails by losing to Steve Austin in very short order. But, Big Show's first year or so in the WWF was full of blunders. His constant face/heel turns didn't help matters.

The in ring work sucked for sure. Still a fun show to watch to listen to the crowd and hear how over the entire roster was.

15 was the first Wrestlemania I ever watched. I remember sitting there thinking "They hung a guy? Holy shit! Also, who's the fat guy Billy Gunn's brother is fighting?

was stll better than 11, 13, and 27 combined I came in here just to say that. WM 15 wasn't a great PPV, however I think it was much better than 11 and 27 and way better than what I think is the worst Wrestlemania, Wrestlemania 13.

As much as the bulk of 13 and 25 sucked, I'll give them both credit for having one match that absolutely stole the show and constantly rank amongst the greatest matches of all time. 9, 11 and 27 didn't have that saving grace.

-It was sad to see Monsoon in the state he was in. He was fully recovered from cancer by that point, but he lost a ton of weight and that surprisingly contributed to his death.

I've been thinking of this Mania recently and I think I've got a pretty good card for it
Main Event Grudge match
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Vince McMahon.
Vince doesn't enter the Rumble. No match in Feb. Instead he just keeps trying to make Austin's life hell, until Austin offers to let Vince rewrite his contract if he wins this match
Winner:Austin
WWF title match
Mankind(c) vs The Undertaker
At the Royal Rumble Mankind loses the I Quit match, but he regains the title at Halftime Heat and retains in Feb.
Undertaker was technically not allowed in the Royal Rumble. But after Kane eliminates himself fleeing from the insane asylum orderlies the Ministry of Darkness fights them off and takes Kane to Undertaker.
Later Kane is seen beating up an entrant, taking his number and re-entering the Rumble. He is able to eliminate Austin, then stares down Vince at ringside until he pulls off his mask revealing Taker.
At St. Valentines Day Massacre he and Austin face off for the shot, since Taker wasn't techniocally in the match. During the match the Ministry fights the Corporation and Paul Wight debuts. He delivers a double chokeslam to Austin and Taker and leaves as the ref counts them down. Taker sits up at nine and retains his shot.
Winner: Taker
8 man Hell in a Cell tag match Losing team disbands
DX(Triple H, X-Pac and the New Age Outlaws) vs The COrporation(The Rock, The Big Bossman, Ken Shamrock and Test)
The only differences in this feud is it's not Kane who initially attacks Chyna in the I Quit match where she turns and Kane is never part of the Corporation.
Rock is on the hotseat in the Corporation due to never being able to beat Mankind.
Shamrock lost the IC title because of Gunn, but never to Gunn.
Road Dogg couldn't defend the Hardcore title because of an attack by Bossman and Shamrock
Chyna is booked in this match initially but is caught talking to Hunter and Shane throws her off the team.
During the match Trips and Rock face off exclusively.
Finally Chyna breaks into the cage, Hunter turns on DX, but also pedigrees Rock post match leaving him laying in the ring as the Corporation leaves.
Then the Ministry comes in and picks up the scraps
Big Show vs Kane.
Show is intro'd by his real name in Feb.
Kane has been a target of the Ministry and Corporation who want to either recruit or ruin him and the Corporation has sent in Show to take care of him here.
winner: Big Show
Tag Team Title Match
Owen Hart and Jeff Jarrett vs the Acolytles
The Acolytes win the pre show battle royal with the help of the rest of the Ministry
Owen turns face at the Rumble by refusing to be Vince's lackey when dealing with Austin. Jarrett turns the next night by not turning on Owen during the match they win the tag titles with
winners by DQ: The Acolytes when Jarrett is caught using his guitar
IC title match
Val Venis vs Goldust vs Gangrel vs D'Lo Brown
same as the real feud, plus Gangrel also targets Ryan Shamrock to distract Ken Shamrock. Plus when Henry is injured WWF keeps Sexual Chocolate around to hit on Ryan. He's eliminated from storyline there and D'Lo takes his friend's spot
winner: Venis
Hardcore Title Match
Hardcore Holly vs Al Snow vs Bart Gunn
Bart's the champion, winning it from Holly when Al Snow interfers in a Hardcore match
winner Holly
Women's title match
Sable vs Tori
winner Sable

How in the hell is Wrestlemania 13 worse than Wrestlemania 9? 9 had a decent opening match and just consistent garbage otherwise. 13 has one of the best matches of all time that completely changed the careers of two of the biggest superstars of all time.

was stll better than 11, 13, and 27 combined I don't think 27 was on par with the other two shows. 11 and 13 were similar to 15 because they were "one match shows". While not great, 27 offered a lot more than those 3 IMO.

hey, if WCW can do War games then WWF could do an eight man tag. And of course there'd be no tagging in an out, I just called it that to ensure people didn't think it was every man for himself

16 sucked too. The weird thing about those days is that Raw was great, but a lot of the PPVs really were crap I wouldn't say 16 sucked. It had a few great matches. Benoit/Angle/Jericho 2 out of 3 falls, the triple threat ladder match, and the main event were all great (though HHH winning pissed me off big time, and still does kind of). I think the problem witb WM 2000 was that there weren't any singles matches. Which is funny because I didn't even notice that until last year. IMO, Benoit/Angle/Jericho wasn't anything special considering who was involved.
