There are many memorable moments from this Wrestlemania. To me there wasn't a bad match on card at all. All of the matches are pretty watchable which makes up a good event to watch all the way through.
1. 15 Team Battle Royal for the #1 Contendership
A very good opener and battle royal which features 2 teams of the nation, headbangers, gowins, too cool, and others. The new L.O.D. makes a surprise return which was the highlight of the match. Good opener. 3.5/5
2. WWE Light Heavyweight Championship
Taka Michinoku vs. Aguila
A very good and high flying match between these 2 light heavyweights. There were some good aerial moves and also some good wrestling moves used as well. Very good match with light heavyweights. King also makes references about how his son could beat both of these guys, so listen for that. 4/5
3. European Championship
Triple H w/ Chyna vs. Owen Hart
Now the stimpulation to this match was that Chyna had to stay handcuffed to St. Slaughter through the duration of the match. This match just became fight in the beginning with Hart just whelling on Triple H. Hart even utilizes a standing hurricanrana on Triple H. Triple H would then get the advantage and start working on the injured ankle of Hart. Chyna would eventually get lose and give Hart a low blow to allow Triple H to deliver the pedigree on Hart. Just a good all around match nevertheless. 4/5
4. Mixed Tag Match
Marc Mero & Sable vs. Goldust & Luna
Sable from the beginning was ready for a fight. I believe the 2 women made the match more than the 2 men. Sable wins with the TKO on Luna. 2.5/5
5. Intercontinental Championship
The Rock vs. Ken Shamrock
To me, this match was much better then their match at the Rumble. The match had more brawling and some more wrestling. Some good outside ring action in the beginning. And just like the Rumble, Shamrock initially wins the match but gets the decision reversed after Shamrock wouldn't let go of the ankle lock. 3.5/5
6. Dumpster Match for the WWE Tag Team Championship
The New Age Outlaws vs. Cactus Jack & Terry Funk
This was just a good hardcore tag match. chairs, the dumpster, cooking sheets, and even a ladder all come into play. Some good spots with the dumpster. Funk gets powerbombed into the dumpster by the Outlaws. The match would end in the locker room area. Great first match of it's kind. 4/5
7. Undertaker vs. Kane w/Paul Bearer
This was a great match between these so called brothers and the build up towards the match was just pheonomenal as well. Kane basically just dominates the undertaker during the majority of the match. Kane utilizes some wrestling holds to wear down the undertaker in this one. some good out of the ring action. Both men displays some great agility in this one. Undertaker kicks out of a tombstone that kane delivers, but it takes 3 tombstones to put away Kane. Pheonomenal match! Listen for Pete Rose's red sox jokes before the match, they're pretty funny. 5/5
8. WWE Championship
Stone Cold Steve Austin vs. Shawn Michaels
Great match even though Michaels back was injured throughout the whole match due to the casket match at the Rumble. Some good brawling on the outside. Michaels utilizes the figure 4 in this one. Some good reversals. Good overall match. Austin would counter sweet chin music and then hit the stunner to begin the Austin 3:16 era. Great main event. 4.5/5
This was a good wrestlemania. I'll say this Wrestlemania is most likely in the top 10, if not in the top 5, but that is just my opinion. Great Wrestlemania nevertheless. I recommend yall picking this one up.
ReviewsThe Austin Era Begins In BostonReview Date: 2008-04-23 Rating: 10 out of 10This is one of the best WrestleManias that I have seen and that is not only the fact that I actually went to this event in my hometown of Boston but this was one of the better cards that we had seen during this era. One thing you can't help but notice was that you could tell that Attitude Era was really starting to evolve here with the atmosphere here being much more different than the previous WrestleManias.
15 Team Battle Royal. The winners of this match would receive a title shot at the Tag Team titles the next month at Unforgiven. This was one of those matches that was just good for what it was as the real highlight here was the return of the Legion of Doom with a new look & a new manager in Sunny to receive one of the loudest pops of the night. Other moments include Lawler constantly putting his own son over, the continuation of the Bradshaw/Windham feud & the end of the Road Warriors feud with the Godwinns.
WWF Light Heavyweight Champion Taka Michinoku vs Aguila. Jim Ross quoted this match perfectly when he said "that someone should notify Logan Airport" because these two put on a great match with so many high, risk moves & high-flying that really showed the possibilities that this division had if given the proper push but this was certainly a highlight for it's time.
WWF European Champion Triple H vs Owen Hart. The stipulation here was that Chyna was going to be handcuffed to Sgt. Slaughter to prevent her from interfering in the match. This was a really good match as Owen & Triple H worked well together with Triple H even working on Owen's injured ankle with Chyna not really becoming a factor till the end where she not only got even with Slaughter but took care of Owen as well.
Sable & Marc Mero vs Goldust & Luna. For those wondering, this was the third mixed tag team match in WrestleMania history & was a better match than anyone anticipated going in. The crowd was pro-Sable throughout the match with Sable being very aggressive throughout the match & even doing moves that she had never done before to Luna like a powerbomb & even using Mero's TKO to get the victory.
Intercontinental Champion The Rock vs Ken Shamrock. This was mostly just Shamrock dominating most of the match & even winning the match by submission but not before taking a sick chair shot at the hands of The Rock to the point where Shamrock snapped again to the point that the decision was reversed back to The Rock. However, one moment to check out was when the leader of the Nation, Faarooq refused to help The Rock when he was in the anklelock.
Dumpster Match: WWF Tag Team Champions New Age Outlaws vs Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie. The rules here was to win the match, you have to put your opponents in the dumpster & close the lids. This was hardcore to say the least as these two teams beat the hell out of each other with various weapons being used like a ladder, pans, stop signs etc with one moment to look out for when Billy Gunn & Cactus Jack were knocked off the ladder from the middle of the ring all the way down into the dumpster. They went backstage using more weapons before Jack & Charlie outsmarted the Outlaws to win the titles.
The Undertaker vs Kane. This was their first match & to this day, I still regard this one as their best encounter as this was one of the best "big man vs big man" matches in WrestleMania history. This match also told a good story in which Kane was the relentless monster that Taker is known to be in the past to the point where he took more of a beating here than he ever did before to the point where Taker took a dive to the outside but landed on the spanish announce table. Great match between these two as Taker sealed the deal after the third tombstone.
WWF Champion Shawn Michaels vs Stone Cold Steve Austin w/Special Enforcer Mike Tyson. This was the match that began Austin's era in the WWF along with the final in-ring performance of Shawn Michaels...for at least four years anyways. This was a great back & forth match with both men's different styles really complimenting each other well with extra credit to HBK for putting on this type of performance with a broken back that really showed it's effect throughout the match. Tyson wasn't a factor till the end to allow Austin to win his first WWF title that lead to the aftermath of Tyson knocking out Shawn in the middle of the ring.
In the end, this was one of those WrestleManias where there wasn't a bad match on the card & while some matches might have disappointed (Rock/Shamrock for example), there is nothing really bad here with standout matches along the way. I highly recommend this one as I felt this was one of the best WrestleManias that I have seen.Austin's era beginsReview Date: 2007-11-26 Rating: 2 out of 10WrestleMania is called the granddaddy of all wrestling PPV's. Well they do make some good moments, I find them to be a little misleading. Only recently has WrestleMania been putting on subpar PPV's ever since this one. The year before was a good WrestleMania highlighted by the Hart-Austin submission match that fans will never forget. This Austin-Michaels ppv ushered in a new era but up until WrestleMania X7, WrestleMania would put on Raw like matches for there biggest PPV of the year.
Tag Team Battle Royal: LOD returns and wins this very confusing battle royal. I dont even remember half the teams that where in this event. I like how the King puts over his own son, Brain Christphor, in this match.
Take Michinoku VS Agulia: Good, fast paced match. Again Lawler puts over his son after Michinkoku wins. WWE cruiserweight division never amounted to much.
Triple H VS Owen Hart: A good match but Chyna interferes and ruins what was a good match.
Marc Mero @ Sable VS Luna @ Golddust: I guess Golddust was always a weird guy. This match didnt really do much. Could have been saved for Raw.
Ken Shamrock VS The Rock: I use to love Shamrock. The Rock screws Shamrock out the IC title, which was really the only bad part to it.
Cactus Jack and Terry Funk VS N.A.O: A good street fight. Funny how over N.A.O were considering only Billy Gunn knew how to wrestle.
Kane VS Undertaker: Good match. One of the best on the card.
Austin VS Michaels: Triple H and Chyna are thrown out after a few minutes, much to the fans delight. I never knew how Mike Tyson brought in ratins for WWE but I guess it did. Austin wins and ushers in his era, as Michaels would retire for a few years. Good match.
Decent PPV with only a few highlights. WWE would return to WrestleMania from in Houston.
Tyson! Tyson! Tyson!Review Date: 2007-04-07 Rating: 10 out of 10THIS IS THE PPV THAT GAVE BIRTH TO THE ATTITUDE ERA IN THE WWF. IN THIS CLASSIC, YOU WILL SEE THE UNDERTAKER BATTLE KANE, CACTUS AND CHAINSAW CHARLIE FACE THE NEW AGE OUTLAWS IN A DUMPSTER MATCH FOR THE WWF TAG TITLES, OWEN HART VS. HHH, AND THE UNFORGETTABLE MAIN EVENT FEATURING AUSTIN AND HBK WITH TYSON AS THE SPECIAL ENFORCER. FANS WILL NEVER FORGET THIS WRESLEMANIA SINCE THIS WAS WHEN AUSTIN WON THE WWF TITLE FOR THE FIRST TIME. HEADING INTO THIS EVENT, EVERYONE IN THE BUSINESS WAS ANTICIPATING A NEW CHAMPION AND AUSTIN WAS THE PERFECT CANDIDATE TO FILL THAT ROLE. IT WAS GREAT TO SEE TYSON TURN ON DX SIMPLY BECAUSE HE AND AUSTIN HAD SPENT THE PREVIOUS WEEKS FIGHTING HEADING INTO THE PPV. ANY WRESTLING FAN CANNOT GO WRONG WITH A PPV FILLED WITH THESE CLASSIC MATCHES AND MOMENTS.the dumpster match was moneyReview Date: 2007-04-02 Rating: 6 out of 10catcus jack terry funk vs new age outlaw
this match is near my favorite hardcore matches it was innovative and exciting the only thing is it was a little short i feel this match is slightly overlooked because of hbk and scsa match as mainevent both two teams work well against eachother i wish there was a rematch between the two teams in another hardcore gimmmick perhaps a hiac in either case they used ladders, chairs, obviously dumpsters, and large plastic soda bottles i know they used more weapons but i forget i admire the conclusion of the match as it was very creative with funk driving a folklift to pick up the new age outlaws and put them into the dumpster to win the match if this was five minutes longer this would have probably been a tag team version of hhh vs catcus jack at the royal rumble 2000 it was close though i rate ***3/4 to very close **** star match Running time: 180 minutesTheatrical release date: 1998
