WM 14 was great as well. Austin’s coronation as the top guy and Tyson’s involvement. You just knew wrestling was big again at that point.

I've always viewed Wrestlemania 30's ending as the perfect series finale to WWE.

X has that great ending with Bret being hoisted up as The Man and then that shot of Owen. And I love that the faces invited him in because hey, your brother overcame the bullshit and became WWF Champ again, come celebrate! And Owen is like this son of a bitch stole my thunder again. Came here to post this. You had Bret's big moment, but you knew that the rivalry with Owen was just beginning. He'd beaten Bret clean as a sheet and had a legit claim to the title

Hard to pick one, so I'd go with Wrestlemania 3 and 10.

Hard to pick one, so I'd go with Wrestlemania 3 and 10. 3 is great as well with Hulkamania reaching the zenith, Hogan getting his greatest victory and then there's Heenan. Bobby Heenan could sell the shit out of defeat. Just his face in his hand with garbage pelted at him and Andre. And he doesn't move. He just wonders how he had all the cards and still failed.

I agree with everyone saying Wrestlemania 30. Bryan finally getting his moment in the sun was such a cool feeling for someone who's been a fan of his from his ROH days.
While the show itself wasn't great, Wrestlemania 14 ending with Austin standing tall (with Mike Tyson of all people) was such a moment. Felt like a harbinger of things to come.
Wrestlemania 20's ending used to be up there for me, given how big a fan I was of both Guerrero and Benoit going back to WCW. But now it's tainted forever.

In cheonological order, imo, 3,4,5,6,10,12,14,15,20,21,24,26,30, and 31 all had satisfying endings to a Wrestlemania. Everything else was either poor, mid, anticlimactic, or something we’ve seen before.

Wrestlemania VI - first Mania I saw and a remorseful Hogan presenting the title to Warrior has stood etched in my memory.

I did enjoy last year's in all honesty as I hated Cody and felt he robbed Sami Zayn's spot.
He's had a great year though so I hope he does win this time.

3. The slamming of Andre is a moment for all eternity. That 12 foot tall 900lb undefeated giant was slammed for the very first time in front of 30 million Hulkamaniacs right there in the Superdome! He died the next day, brother.

I think 3 is my favorite. It feels like a Super Bowl win. Hogan celebrating in front of a gigantic crowd. Even Jesse is lost in the moment and gives Hulk his just due. It feels like the pinnacle of the era of wrestling that I love the most.

I liked WrestleMania 10, where Bret was celebrating his title win in the ring with most of the babyfaces while Owen is staring from the aisle. It was the first Mania ending that felt like it was segueing from one story into the next.

If Undertaker had stayed retired 33 might be my answer. It was weird to do that big emotional production to end the show then it turned out to not even be his retirement.

Gotta be the one where Roman Reigns stood tall. Mine is the one where the conquering hero Roman lost and got bloodied and Brock may have thrown the belt afterwards

Had Benoit not done what he did, WWE would be showing his celebration with Eddie in every WrestleMania highlight video package.

Seth Rollins cashing in MITB during Reigns / Lesnar. People had been fantasy booking that for years and it finally happened.
Him swinging the belt around as pyro engulfs the stadium while Lesnar and Reigns are battle torn staring in disbelief. Loved that iteration of Rollins with J&J Security.
Those were good times!
