Both events drew almost the same ausidence (only a difference of 247 people):
WM 06: 67,678
WM 17: 67,925
Both main events had the two top stars at the time and in neither case could "you see either one lose". So you had an identical type of build up to both. Both featured a shocking ending (Hogan's clean loss and Austin siding with McMahon).
What was bigger and better? Build up, match quality, ending, shock value...
It's hard to pick... Both are so damn equal in EVERY way!

Well I grew up in the attitude era so my choice is bias but I picked Austin/Rock. Awesome promos, awesome build up, awesome...awesome match. Austin's first title win since being injured 2 years before that. And the classic ending with Austin turning heel.

Austin/Rock wins because the matches are so exactly the same I had to decide on storyline leading up to the match and outside the Debra stuff the Rock/Austin storyline and not to mention past history made it a very big match. Only down sie is it had happened already.

The bigger built match was Hogan/Warrior because it was a first. Rock/Austin had happened several times before. As far as match quality though, Rock/Austin was far superior

Hogan/Warrior. When you're a little kid and you see the 2 best "good guys" going at it for the first and (lets not count HH98 please) last time it was pretty huge.
Austin/Rock on the other hand just felt like a rehash of an old feud, but it was still great in the end.

In my opinion, Austin/Rock is the greatest feud of all time, so thats my pick.

Hogan vs Warrior. At the time, it was unbelievable and so exciting. I had no idea who would win and actually figured Hulk would pull it out at the end once again. I was shocked when Warrior won. (OMG! SPOILERZ!)  Hogan vs Warrior was also special because it only happened once under the WWE banner. I choose to ignore the crapfest that was Hogan/Warrior WCW. |

no contest Hogan vs Warrior. Austin and Rock already fought many times. Austin's heel turn in my opinon was a huge mistake. He should have been the one that helped fight for wwe. Never liked that run

This is a really, REALLY tough one, but I've gotta go with Hogan/Warrior. I first saw it when I was little, and even to this day, I get goosebumps when Hogan misses that leg drop and Warrior wins the match.

Hogan/Warrior. It was built amazingly and it was all for ONE one-on-one contest. Rock/Austin already had plenty of matches with one another. Sure they had more heat with one another, but how often will you have two of the biggest stars on your brand square off in a classic face vs face confrontation. Very rare indeed. And its never been matched as far as I'm concerned.

The WrestleMania main event was outstanding, and I didn't see the heel turn coming, but Hogan vs Warrior is my all time favorite match. a match I have been watching since I was about 4.
So it as to be WrestleMania 7.

In my eyes WM 6 Hogan vs Warrior was way bigger

Hogan/Warrior for me. Especially at the time when wrestling was "real" to me (dammit)  |
