Got the first 15 on DVD before the Network. Saw the very few I missed in the first place, once I got the Network. Every Mania season, I watch all the WMs I was present at (11, 24, 28, 33) as a way to hype myself up. Oh you poor bastard I was fifteen. A freshman in high school, and a year away from becoming a true 'smark'. I know the card sucked, in hindsight, but my favorite part of the evening was getting to see my childhood hero, Roddy Piper, live in person. Again, in hindsight, they could've used him better, but for what it was, the whole experience was a nice memory.

Hell I would have loved to see Bam Bam wrestle live.

I have seen everyone since WrestleMania VI, but I saw 1 to V thanks to Silver Vision/Coliseum Video back in the day. If I remember rightly, here in the UK I saw VI, VII and VII and a tape delay, but I think, I am not 100 percent sure that from IX we got them live, it may have been X, I know for sure XI was shown live here in the UK. Anyway, I watched IX all the way up until 29 live and since then I watch them the next day or if they last about six hours I watch it over the course of two days.

Watched them all in their entirety apart from 1 to 13. And I doubt I’ll ever be bothered to go back and watch those.

Ive seen every one multiple times from start to end...my mind is kinda blown that most people havent. Honestly Ive seen every wrestling PPV multiple times. Even Capital Carnage 1998? I’ll answer...yes...even Capital Carnage. Attitude Era PPVs were fun.

I've seen them all, it did take me a while to see the one where Cena fought Rock the second time. It was ok. I've seen Mania 2,8,9,and 13 live and did watch them back on tape. lol Mania 9 was not good live and not good on video!

All of them. 1-9 are tough for me to get through entirely outside of the “big matches” promoted for those shows. 10 was the first to me that stood out as enjoyable from top to bottom. 11 then goes right back to the “tough to get through” outside of Diesel/HBK and the tag title match.
12 was memorable for the iron man match (despite being slow at times), Taker/Diesel, and Goldust/Piper. 13 is crap outside of Austin/Bret. 14 was more enjoyable but not quite to the level of 10 IMO but the shift in the tone to more “Attitude” was fun. 15 was a mess with Russo’s booking, and 16 was only memorable for the Tag Title match as the rest of the card just seemed thrown together (Kat/Terri is the only singles match on the card).
17-24 is the “golden era” of WM for me. This period is when we got the most consistent shows outside of a few (18 and 22 really had one memorable match each).
25 was crap outside of Taker/HBK (does anyone really remember anything else from this card outside of the boring HHH/Orton match). 26 was far better than 25 IMO based on Taker/HBK, Edge/Jericho, Cena/Batista, and the MITB match. 27 is crap, 28 is really only memorable to me for Rock/Cena and the HIAC, and 29 is back to crap.
30 is a fun show for the D-Bry story and the shock of Taker’s streak ending (Cesaro also got arguably the biggest win of his career here). 31 had a solid undercard but the main matches didn’t deliver for me (before Seth cashes in the Roman/Lesnar match was a slog to watch). 32 was crap for mainly the big matches not delivering outside of the Women’s title match. 33 was a step up from 32 but the main event left a lot of people upset (similar to 32’s main event but for different reasons). 34 was crap. 35 was the most enjoyable since 31 IMO. 36 is hard to rank considering the circumstances surrounding it. It’s 50/50 to me.

I still have such a soft spot for 1-9. Can sit and watch those anytime and feel entertained the whole way through. I know 9 is relatively speaking pretty bad, but I loved the whole Caesars palace thing as a kid so it's always an easy watch for me.

Essentially it was Piper trying to murder Goldust because Goldust thought he was cute. Which essentially was most of Goldust early feuds.

No, i watched up to 22 and skipped until around 28 and then again picked up at 30. I usually go to my friends to watch PPVS including WrestleMania, but he moved because of his job.
Ive seen every royal rumble though
