WWE.com - Top 35 WrestleMania matches

[Deleted]

www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/article/35-best-wrestlemania-matches

Right off the bat know this is going to be a stupid list because the image is Lesnar / Taker and I wouldn't put that in the top 35 matches at WrestleMania 30.

Let's see here then, list is...

6. Edge & Christian vs. The Hardy Boyz vs. The Dudley Boyz (WrestleMania 17)
5. Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels
4. Steve Austin vs. The Rock (WrestleMania 17)
3. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin
2. Ricky Steamboat vs. Randy Savage
1. Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels (WrestleMania 25)

Yeeeeesh, yeah, quite a few of those I wouldn't put on there. I'll excuse Rock / Hogan and Bret / Michaels even though personally I have no use for either - especially the latter, think it's a complete borefest - but Taker / Lesnar, Eddie / Angle, Taker / Punk, the Mania 32 ladder match, Piper / Goldust, and Triple H / Jericho all stick out like sore thumbs and the ordering on the rest of it's also very wonky. Like, both great matches but I don't think I know anybody who likes Bryan / Batista / Orton more than Bryan / Triple H.

Side note, Jericho is so banned from WWE that he only made this list three times.

Holy shit, a Benoit sighting.

[realist]

Wow. I am shocked that they would put up the first ever Money in the Bank match with Chris Benoit but leave off the triple threat between Benoit, Triple H, and Shawn Michaels. Until the tragedies, that was my favorite WrestleMania main event. Also, that Piper vs. Goldust match shouldn't even be on a top 100 WrestleMania match list, let alone on this one.

I’m honestly suprised triple H wasn’t number 1

For what it's worth they don't actually mention his name - the other ladder match lists the participants but that one just says Money in the Bank and he's not in the description or screenshot - but still, pretty surprising they'd go with it given he's central to the thing and is the last one to go down.

[Rican]

Hmm, I don't have many objections overall. Angle/Rousey vs. Hunter/Steph is WAY too high but it was fun, I wouldn't mind it being on the list somewhere. I also probably wouldn't have put AJ/Shane but at number 35 its not that outrageous or anything.

Also, do I keep missing it completely or is Hogan/Andre not on there?

[auph10imitated]

No Savage vs Flair or Savage vs Hogan? WTF?

[Deleted]

I never saw the appeal of Steamboat/Savage. Maybe because the first time I saw it was back in 2008... but still. How was this match so well received? Even back then, there was better matches like Warrior/Hogan, Warrior/Savage, Bret/Owen etc..

[Deleted]

A Zack Ryder win made the top 30.

WWWYKI

[mcstoklasa]

Austin vs bret was way better than taker vs Michael's

[ASYLUMHAUSEN]

Mr Wrestlemania makes EIGHT appearances on this list...

i'm good with that. Though, I feel like Austin/Bret & HBK/Taker Mania 25 are 1a & 1b and the order can change daily depending on my mood.

[froggyfrog]

Shout out Stardust, Sin Cara, and Zack Ryder for making the list lol

Triple H didn't even make the Top 10!

[lavelleuk]

I opened this and in my mind I already knew Hogan v Andre was going to be number 1....but it's not even on there?

[Germansuplex]

Eww, Piper/Goldust. Be a star, WWE!

Wasn't that entire angle essentially Piper vowing to "make a man" out of Goldust?

In 1987 that match was very groundbreaking, you didn’t have lots of near falls and, what was at the time, high flying offense. Also, those matches listed weren’t “at that time” as they all happened years later. Seeing that match on 2008, it probably does seem tame, but at the time there was nothing like it, especially in WWF. Just like how Shawn/Razor bar WM 10 blew people’s minds, but compared to today’s latter matches, it isn’t that crazy.

WWE never tried to really push that as a great match. They push the slam as a big moment, but not the match overall.

[4real]

HHH v Jericho? lol.

[Bo Rida]

Not a terrible list, I'd struggle filling the lower places anyway .
Vince Vs Shane should be on there though.
Maybe gimmick battle royal too.
