50 WTF Moments From WWE WrestleMania 17

By Jack G King / September 11, 2015

WrestleMania X-Seven is often cited as the greatest 'Mania in history. Crowned by two truly awesome bouts - the Rock versus Austin main event, and the unbelievable TLC tag titles match - the PPV is rightfully regarded as a fantastic example of its time, and perhaps could be seen as the crescendo of the Attitude Era. However, for all its greatness, WrestleMania X-Seven isn't without its odd little moments. The pay-per-view is absolutely jam-packed full of bizarre, wacky, shocking, and disturbing incidents, all stretched over its almost four-hour run time. Here are 50 WTF Moments from an all-time classic, proving that even the greatest shows in wrestling history have their weird side.

50. The Opening Video Package

WrestleMania X-Seven opens with a mesmerisingly weird video package, in which various vacant-eyed wrestling fans from all walks of life tune into the PPV. Without a doubt, the most bizarre part sees a Japanese woman smile fondly at the sight of Yokozuna winning the WWF Championship at WrestleMania IX. First of all, Yokozuna isn't even Japanese - he was born in the USA and was part of the legendary Anoa'i Samoan wrestling lineage. The character was at least billed as Japanese, so we'll let that slide, but the WWF also cunningly left out the fact that Yokozuna held the title for about five minutes, before immediately losing it to Hulk Hogan.
