I have many. I will start chronologically.
1. Macho Man Randy Savage wins the title tournament at Wrestlemania 4, ushering in the era of the madness as well as the formation of the Mega Powers and Elizabeth perched on Savage's shoulder.
2. The Mega Powers Explode- Hulk Hogan and Macho Man, two of my favorites of all time, going at it in one of my favorite matches.
3. The torch is passed to the Ultimate Warrior- I also enjoyed this match. Both fought very well, and when Hogan handed the title to Warrior and they embraced in the ring, it was an amazing sight.
4. Bret Hart wins his second title at Wrestlemania 10 with the WWF roster holding him on their shoulders. Bret Hart is my second favorite wrestler of all time behind Sting and it was a great moment to see the new generation begin to take center stage.
5. Shawn Michaels wins the Iron Man Match in Sudden Death Over Time- The boyhood dream has come true for Shawn Michaels. One of the best matches of all time and awesome to see HBK win the big one at such a small weight.
6. Stone Cold Steve Austin ushers in the Attitude era with an amazing stunner counter to Sweet Chin Music and Mike Tyson makes the count- The Austin Era has begun!
7. The Rock wins the tournament to crown a new WWF Champion with Montreal 1997 revisited and The Rock becomes the Corporate Champion.
8. Mankind finally wins the big one from The Rock with the help of Stone Cold Steve Austin.
9. The Rock wins the title for a second time during the I Quit Match after nailing Mankind with 15 chairshots standing over Mankind with the title raised as the Corporate Champion.
10. Stone Cold Steve Austin regains his title after a long journey since September to regain his prize at Wrestlemania 15.
11. The Big Show becomes the champion at the Survivor Series with the Chokeslam as Vince McMahon counts down Triple H. Big Show kneels and hugs the title.
12. Triple H wins the title on January 3, 2000, ushering in the McMahon-Helmsley era with a Pedigree as well as confetti and green and black balloons representing D-Generation X.
13. The Rock wins the title after getting screwed by the McMahons at Wrestlemania at Backlash with the help of Stone Cold Steve Austin who raises hell on the entire McMahon-Helmsley faction. Austin and the Rock toast each other at the conclusion of the PPV.
14. Triple H regains the title via disqualification at Judgment Day in my favorite match of all time The Rock vs. Triple H Iron Man Match when the Undertaker returns as the American Bad Ass and inadvertantly assists Triple H.
15. Chris Jericho "wins" the title in an impromptu challenge when Hebner quick counts Triple H.
16. The Rock vs. Chris Benoit Fully Loaded 2000-the entire match was off the page one of the all time best title matches ever. The ending with Benoit winning and then Rock retaining after Foley reverses the decision and Rock my favorite at the time and my overall third favorite wrestler wins. Rock-Benoit was a great feud.
17. The Rock gets his title back from Kurt Angle at No Way Out in one of the best solid title matches of all time. The Rock and Angle going at it tooth and nail with non-stop action.
18. Stone Cold Steve Austin sells his soul to Vince McMahon during the best Wrestlemania main event ever. The Two Man Power Trip forms the next night.
19. Kurt Angle wins the title at Unforgiven with the entire WWF roster at the time and his family holding him on his shoulder after he made Stone Cold Steve Austin tap out.
20. Brock Lesnar wins the title after reversing the Rock Bottom into the F-5 truly showing the moniker the Next Big Thing. Great title match on one of the most solid cards of all time.
21. Kurt Angle pins Brock Lesnar to win the WWE championship at Vengeance after an Angle Slam. This was after he had the two month hiatus with the broken neck.
22. Chris Benoit makes Brock Lesnar tap out for the first time at Survivor Series '03, it wasn't a title match but he was the champion.
23. Eddie Guerrero wins the championship from Brock Lesnar after a spear from Goldberg and a huge Frog Splash. Afterwards, Eddie gets a standing ovation as he celebrates with the fans.
24. JBL wins the title after GM Kurt Angle reverses a call in the Bullrope match showing JBL hit the turnbuckle first and ushering in the era of JBL, the longest title reign since Diesel, and I enjoyed his title reign, probably the only one, but he was entertaining.
25. John Cena ends JBL's 10 month reign as champion ushering in a new era.
26. Edge cashes in Money In The Bank at New Year's Revolution capturing his first WWE Championship after Cena had survived the Elimination Chamber.
27. John Cena makes Triple H tap out at Wrestlemania 22, I was one of the few cheering for John Cena and it was awesome, nobody expected HHH to lose.
28. Edge wins his second championship during a triple threat with John Cena and Rob Van Dam capitalising on an F-U by John Cena ushering in the era of the Rated R Superstar- which I personally feel was during this reign as opposed to the first, since he held it longer.
29. John Cena wins the title in a TLC match overcoming the odds against Edge in a pretty good match. The FU through two tables was awesome. Though the arena was booing Cena, he worked through it.
30. John Cena makes HBK tap out in a fantastic Wrestlemania match. Constant back and forth action made this one of the true great main events.
31. Randy Orton wins the WWE Championship in a Last Man Standing Match at No Mercy over Triple H. The Age of Orton begins and he finally wins the title after having been jobbed out of the World title in 2004.
