Ranking Every WWE WrestleMania Main Event - From Worst To Best

11. Hulk Hogan vs The Ultimate Warrior (WrestleMania 6)

For some matches on this list, context is everything, and that is certainly the case for the match between The Ultimate Warrior and Hulk Hogan from WrestleMania 6. The first and only time that the Intercontinental Championship and the WWE Championship has been on the line in the same WrestleMania match, this was a battle for the ages between two of the biggest names of the Golden Age of WWE.

Hulk Hogan's place as the face of professional wrestling had been long established by this point. He'd even transcended the sport to become one of the 1980s most significant cultural icons, but the first WrestleMania of the 1990s had a new hero in the shape of The Ultimate Warrior.

The match between these two giants is a slow and lumbering slog, but this is a match that defined people's childhoods. There are a whole generation of fans who will insist this is the definitive wrestling match of all time, due to the sheer magnitude and star power of these two wrestling behemoths and their legendary double-clothesline. They're wrong, of course, but the sheer weight of this match demands that it have a high placing on this list. The Ultimate Warrior won the day, but WWE quickly learned that they had overestimated his long-term appeal before switching gears back to Hulk Hogan in less than a year.
