10. The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 15- This was the first of two main event matches at WrestleMania between these two competitors. The match had fans on the edge of their seats the whole time. Both superstars gave the fans moments to cheer about. Stone Cold ended up winning the match, creating another chapter in the Texas Rattlesnake’s rebellious career.
9. Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant at WrestleMania 3- This match is ranked where it is because of the moments it gave the fans. Not just the iconic slam that everyone remembers, but the fact that the match at WrestleMania 3 was the only time Andre The Giant was in the main event at WrestleMania. It was a historic night for everyone watching, as this match will always be talked about as a classic.
8. John Cena vs. Triple H at WrestleMania 22- Old School vs. New School. Most people don’t think about that angle of the match when they remember the main event between Cena and HHH. Not too long into the match, Cena was being booed and receiving hate for his style of wrestling. Jim Ross was upset with the crowd, saying on commentary that Cena was a good wrestler. During the match, Ross would compare the styles of the two wrestlers, saying it was a battle of the traditional wrestling style and the unorthodox wrestling style. Throughout the match, the crowd was booing everything Cena did. The match helped Cena take the next step to becoming a superstar. He learned how to deal with adversity in this match, as he would deal with hostile crowds for every big match after that main event.
7. Hulk Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior at WrestleMania 6 Someone finally defeated Hogan at WrestleMania, which is an accomplishment in its own. The Warrior won the WWF Championship while also defending his WWF Intercontinental Title. This was a fun match to watch, as both men found the energy to get back into the match when things looked rough. The only downfall to the match is the immediate kick-out by Hogan after the Warrior got the three-count. That didn’t change anything from what happened after that WrestleMania, as the Ultimate Warrior had become the face of the WWF.
