*WM1: Tito Santana defeated The Executioner
*WM6: Rick Martel defeated Koko B Ware
*WM11: Bret Hart defeated Bob Backland
*WM13: Bret Hart defeated Steve Austin
*WM 20: Chris Benoit defeated HBK and Trips
*WM 21: Kurt Angle defeated Shawn Michaels
*WM 22: John Cena defeated Trips
I just thought I'd pass this little tidbit of info along, I find it pretty damn interesting. Out of the over 200 matches in Mania history, only 6 ended in submission. Five, if you don't count the passing out of Austin at Mania 13.
EDIT: My bad...I completely forgot about the Mania 6 match. Under the impression that he lost by pinfall.

Martel pinned Koko, Benoit and Jericho won their falls at Mania 16 by pinfall, and Adonis did not submit, he passed out. The only reason the Mania 13 match counts is because it was billed a submission matc.

I'm so happy that John Cena has one of the submission victories. In the main event, no less. That really looks like it belongs there. I should commit suicide just so I can roll over in my grave.

Martel definitely won via submission. He put Koko in the boston crab and they rang the bell.

Just for the record
Martel definitely won his match with the Boston Crab. And I would call Piper's win over Adrian a submission because technically one could not submit to the sleeper since they are sleeping at the time.

He already fixed it, we should probably shut up about the Crab now.  But yeah winning via letting the hands fall is a "submission". Back when they would announce the name and type of victory...(And your winner via pinfall, Batista!) They would say "via submission" for sleepers. |

I should commit suicide just so I can roll over in my grave. That's great. I'm sigging it right now. I literally LOL'd at that one, and I never laugh out loud when I'm online. Bravo. Oh, and, just so I can feel like I contributed to this thread ... uh, Cena sucks. |

It was the first guy who said it wasn't a submission but rather passing out. |

I guess pinfalls are more epic. It's always a surprize of someone is gonna kick out or not.
