WrestleMania is the night wrestling fans witnesses classic moments that stick with them for years. It's easy to conjure up an image of Hulk Hogan body slamming Andre the Giant in front of “93,000” fans at the Silverdome, or Bret Hart forcing Steve Austin to pass out to the Sharpshooter, or The Rock and John Cena going face-to-face at the 28th iteration of the show in a true battle of icons.

'Mania is the show the company revolves their year around, and Vince McMahon always wants to leave the audience with something incredibly memorable by the end of the night. Usually he does achieve this goal, but it isn’t always for the right reasons.

This is because his big ideas are often quite strange. Most of his fanbase finds his sense of humor either confusing or downright lame, and he loves bringing in celebrities who don't seem to mesh well with the product. He also has a tendency to book matches that have absolutely no chance of even reaching the level of mediocrity. Because of this, every WrestleMania can end up with its fair share of head-scratching, groan inducing moments. Plus, the show is six hours long these days, so that's bound to lead to at least some badness.

Now let's take a look back over the past three decades and countdown the 10 worst WrestleMania moments so far.

As Rust Cohle from True Detective said "Life's barely long enough to get good at one thing. So be careful what you're good at." Sadly, I can't solve a murder like Rust...or change a tire, or even tie a tie. But I do know all the lyrics to Hulk Hogan's "Real American" theme song and can easily name every Natural Born Thriller from the dying days of WCW. I was once ranked 21st in the United States in Tetris...on the Playstation 3 version...for about a week. Follow along @AndrewSoucek and check out my podcast at wrestlingwithfriends.com
