1st) 17 - the greatest PPV of all time 2nd) 21 - several great matches, and my favourite match ever in Angle vs Michaels 3rd) 6 - Warrior vs Hogan.
After going to 'Mania 28 I seriously do want to go to 30 but the cost...hmmm...it's given me the big time 'Mania live bug though.

Mania 9. Its my all time favorite. Definitely serious. Back in my childhood I would watch this one on vhs all the time. Its apart of my earliest memories of wrestling. The way Hulk and Brutus beat down Money inc. while real american was still playing still gives me goosebumps. The spectacle of Giant Gonzales blew mind as a kid, dude was enormous compared to Taker. The two Do inks, Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan beating Yoko for Bret, in like 10 seconds, The overall theme and setting for this show it was just amazing. I have never understood the dislike of this one.

I'd go to WrestleMania XX so I could try to smuggle in a camera and try to bootleg the shit out of that show! I've always wanted to attend a WrestleMania held at Madison Square Garden, so it's a toss-up between the first, WM X, or WM XX. Now that I think about it, I would probably pick WM X. Owen vs. Bret...Shawn/Razor Ladder Match...Burt Reynolds. "Burt Reynolds is my spirit guide!"- Sterling Mallory "Patches" Archer I would also give one of Adam's kidneys to be at Wrestlemania X7. But that would leave me with no kidney's!!! . How do you think I feel? It leaves me without any of your kidneys to time travel to the WrestleMania of my coice!

VI, in Toronto.
Part of me wants to say III instead, but the 1990 edition, despite not having all the best matches ever, had so many of my all-time favorites on it, was held in a huge venue in a fun city, and just reminds me of some of my earliest memories as a wrestling viewer.

WM III, no doubt. To see THE most watched wrestling moment of all time (Hogan slamming Andre) take place live would be amazing.

It would actually depend on where my seats would be. There are plenty I would love to go to but if my seats are terrible, it wouldn't be worth it at all.
Great seats: WM 3
Good seats: WM 17,18
Bad seats: WM 20 (MSG isn't crazy huge, so bad seats are still good seats)
If you take that out of the equation, as great as WM 3 and 17 were, I'd choose WM 18 just for the Rock/Hogan match.

We're all prone to nostalgia, I guess. I've seen Mania IX when I was an adult, and it is a pretty horrible Mania to me. But hey, good for you if you like it.

I'd go with WM III. Simply because I'd love to have seen Hogan/Andre in person.

Chalk up another vote for WM III, but then again I was 12. That was probably when I was at my early peak as far as being a wrestling fan.

I was going to pick 3, but I thought seeing Savage win the tournament the next year would have been cool too (plus you get to see Bret destroy a trophy!!!!). Seeing hogan and Savage the year after would have been cool too. But then. Hogan vs. Warrior would have been insane too, so ultimately, I chickened out and went with my lazy answer.

WM 29.
Our saviors Triple H and John Cena going over two jerks no one loves. Thank you. I'd kill to see it live.

Of course, i'd love to have been at all of them. However, there's one in particular I really enjoyed watching live on TV over the others - Wrestlemania 21.
Would have loved to have seen Eddie vs. Rey in person. Witnessed the first money in the bank match, saw my personal favourite match at any Wrestlemania, Shawn vs. Angle & saw the rise of both Cena & Batista -- two of this generations biggest stars.
Also, that Hulk Hogan/Hassan segment would of been insane to witness live. Being in that crowd for a reaction like that would of been a true life-time experience.
