What is your choice for the most underrated WrestleMania of all time?

4 definitely. It made the WWE Championship mean so much, with having that one night single elimination tournament. Plus lots of wrestling matches on the show.

I can't believe two things. How Wrestlemania 11 didn't ruin Wrestlemania as a whole, and how someone has already voted for that horrible, horrible event.
I'd go with Wrestlemania 4. People crap on it and say it was boring, or matches should have went a certain way, but I think the tournament cemented Savage as one of the greatest of all time, kayfabe or otherwise. One of my favorite Wrestlemania moments was the end of this event.

Honestly, I don't think any of them are under rated. The general consensus on all of them seem fair to me.

I think Wrestlemania 11 gets crapped on because of the match quality for Wrestlemania (though the Michaels/Diesel, the Jarrett/Razor and the Hart/Backlund matches were pretty good). Plus the embarassing audio problems didn't help at all.

I liked Hart/Backlund & HBK/Diesel, so I voted for WM11.

I know Wrestlemania 13 was bad as a whole....but Stone Cold vs Bret Hart should go down as one of the 5 best matches in professional wrestling history. If you ever wanna know why Bret is the greatest of all time, simply watch that match.

I always liked 4 but I'm gonna say WM9, it's nowhere near as bad as people say. And I still mark for Hogan winning the title at the end of the show.

2000. It had - Dudleys vs. E&C vs. Hardys in a Triangle Ladder Match for the WWF Tag Team Titles
- Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit vs. Chris Jericho in a Triple Threat Match for the Intercontinental and European titles.
- 15 minute Hardcore Battle Royal
- Triple H vs. Rock vs. Big Show vs. Mick Foley Fatal Four Way for the WWF Title with a McMahon in every corner.
I loved all of these matches (the Triangle Tag Team Title Ladder Match is a WM classic, IMO). Plus it had the Wrestlemania All Day Long documentary.

Just curious ... why is WM7 not on the list of choices? Not counting Savage-Warrior, which most people seem to love, that WM generally gets a terrible rap.

Gotta go with WM4 Macho Man put on a great show, and Million Dollar Man was at his best, too bad the ending was again over shadowed by Hogan

I'd go with 15. You know, I have seen the show 3 times, and the more I watch it, the more I enjoy it. Sure, it had some low points (Bossman/Taker), but it really did have some solid competitoin.

For me, 7. It was my first, so that made it special. Matches were pretty fun, and Hogan became the first 3-time champ.
Of the ones on this list, I say 9. I loved teh layout of the arena, the Roman theme, the outdoor setting with the awning supported by the pillars. The matches weren't that bad except for Taker/Gonzalez, and I marked for Hogan's surprise win.

Wrestlemania 2 was really good for what it was. Plus as I have said before I don't consider it to be wrestlecrap. Rather I consider it to an early attempt at ppv's back when the company was still learning how to do them. The 3 city thing made it unique, if nothing else. Plus it featured Uncle Elmer's only Wrestlmania apperence

The McMahon in Every Corner thing ruined the match IMO. and I think that despite the Ladder Match, Wrestlemania 16 pretty much sucked IMO. Wrestlemania 2 I liked because of the Bulldogs match. Wrestlemania XI I didn't mind too much. Wrestlemania XV I also liked very much and it was an above average PPV. and Wrestlemania IX I can always laugh at.
