With the road to WrestleMania around the corner I thought this would be a good one. The biggest event in wrestling for 38 years!! It’s crazy to see it nearly hit 40 soon.
WM17 is the goat for me, always has been & always will be.
Also in no order -
WM14
WM18
WM19
WM20
WM21
WM24
WM28
WM30
WM31
Honourable mentions goes to WM3,WM6, WM8, WM38, WM35, WM22, WM23, WM25, WM26 , WM10.

X7 for sure and X8 a close second. Still have never heard a louder reaction than the entire Rock/Hogan match from the entrances all the way to the final bell. Will never be duplicated.

WrestleMania 23 will always be my favourite. Personally, i think it's up there as one of the better Mania's too.
The only negatives that I, and most others call out on the show are:
- Kane vs Khali. For the big guys going on 2nd to bring the crowd down a bit, they did serve their purpose, but they just didn't click as opponents. Kane slamming Khali was a cool moment though.
- Melina vs Ashley. From memory, i believe the match was almost cut entirely due to time. So for the 3 or so minutes they had, they tried to put something on. Can't really blame them.
As for the rest of the card, it was all good to great.
One thing i liked too, is how Matt Hardy and Chris Benoit got two of the biggest crowd reactions of the night. When their music hit, the crowd erupted for them.

WM7 and WM8 were always favorites of mine. Both had 2 really good/great matches, one had a shocking return, and I don't remember any of the matches being horrible.
WM3 is a great one.
WM4 was a good one too, but the tournament style matches made it hard for any one match to really be great.
WM6 was good but could have been better, they should have had Roddy Piper vs. Rick Rude (cage match) and Tito Santana vs. Rick Martel on the card.
WM10 was good too, not the most popular era, but the event was really good. The event did give two all-time classic matches in Owen vs. Bret and HBK vs. Razor
WM17 was great too, tremendous setting.

No particular order 8 14 17-21 23 24 31 38 Unpopular opinion but 17 isn’t the best. Overrated imo Agreed on 17. Half the show is filler/matches that could have been basic RAW matches. |

The big matches were great but there was some stuff on there that goes with all the other meh WM undercards. I understand why it’s usually ranked as the best. I put it top three but it’s not the best top to bottom Mania for me |

I really like the first one. I was there for all of that and I just like the old school of it. 3 is also really good. I'm a fan of 19 as well.

Pure nostalgia on falling in love with wrestling will always keep VI on top for me. I'll always have a soft spot for IX as well just for the childhood memories, though I always skipped the main event lol.
But, IV through VIII are the ones I'll go back and re-watch in entirety.

14-Good for it’s time
15- Garbage
16- Garbage
17- Fantastic/One of my favorites
18- Underwhelming
19- Fantastic one of my favorites
20- Good/big time feel/loved how WWE tried to get everyone on the card but it led to clustered card
21- Very good show/ loses steam for the two main events but two very important main events
22- Good Show also loved the presentation. Little weak in parts of the card
23- One of my favorites. Loved the presentation and feel. Some stinker matches but I have a love for this show
24- my favorite
25- Taker and Shawn and a alright triple threat world title with overall garbage show
26- okay; some solid matches and the end of HBKs career, but a clustered card. Sort of the end of my love for the 19-26 big time mania feel.
27- Garbage but good spots sprinkled in
28 - Loved the hype to the show with Cena/Rock felt like a massive match as a kid watching: loved end of era story ending; some very misguided matches but a very significant show which makes it okay
29- loved the presentation stage set up. Not a great card with not much to offer. Loved that stage and set up though.
30-One of the all time great shows for me.
31- A show that I never expected to be as good as it was.
32- One of the worst in modern years
33- amazing arena and stage. Some terrible matches with some real good entries of matches lost in it.
34- underwhelming in every aspect
Taker/Cena - Aj/Nakurma. Two very good tag matches and a opener.
35- the show dragged on but I liked it it’s the best of post WM 31 manias. Lots of solid matches but overbooked and it felt something was missing.
36- Points for effort and the pandemic going on so I’ll let it slide
37- Really fun two nights and I think Roman/Bryan/Edge angle is one of my favorites to date. The best so far of the 2020s
38- Didn’t care for it at all just felt very underwhelming as a card

17 might have taken it for me but the ending of the ME was one of their worst booking decisions ever. It was proven & underlined in the ratings too.
WM5
WM6
WM14
WMXX
for me are ones that stand all the way out.

Great success = profits. Mediocre success still = profits.
