'Stone Cold' Steve Austin was an absolutely flawless wrestling character, and exactly what the 'Attitude Era' required. Drenched in beer and with more aggression than the entire 'New WWF Generation' combined, Austin was a revelation. Similarly, by 1999 The Rock had evolved into one of wrestling's greatest heels. He was cocky and dripping with charisma, and the pair were a riot when working together.

Their first WrestleMania match occurred at 'Mania XV, and it was a stunning brawl. Austin's road to the grand show had been long, mainly due to the intense obstacle Vince McMahon provided. It was a great story, one which had fans simply begging to see their (anti)hero of choice emerge on the winning side come March 28 of that year.

That's exactly what happened, and the show even ended up with a celebratory foot on the chest of a downed McMahon. Fans had their wish, and WrestleMania XV ended with a bang. Incredibly, it wasn't the biggest babyface victory Steve Austin would have during his appearances on the annual supershow.
