1. Shawn Michaels vs "Stone Cold" Steve Austin - WrestleMania 14
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin is arguably the biggest name of all time when it comes to professional wrestling. Taking it on financial and viewing numbers, Austin was largely responsible for the wrestling boom known as the Attitude Era. Those who saw "Stunning" Steve Austin back in his WCW days knew that this wrestler was a talent, but nobody ever put Stunning Steve down as a future Wrestlemania main eventer. Via a detour to ECW, it was Austin's 1996 King of the Ring promo that made him stand out as a truly special performer. That promo and a great feud with Bret Hart, along with back-to-back Royal Rumble wins, found Austin at the point where he was to face Shaw Michaels for the WWF Championship at Wrestlemania 14. As we know by now, Austin gave Michaels the stunner and pinned him 1-2-3. Not only did this signify Austin's first WWF Title win, this match is seen as the ushering in of the Attitude Era, a time that fans still to this day regularly cry out for. As well as Austin cementing his place at the top of the WWF table, this would be a huge part in setting up the most successful days of the pro wrestling industry. Michaels would also retire due to injury, and Austin would soon be joined in the main event by the likes of The Rock, HHH, and Mick Foley, with Kane and The Undertaker still around, and the likes of Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle and Chris Benoit on the horizon. So with Wrestlemania now coming up, do you believe that Roman Reigns will be handed the ball to run with? And what Wrestlemania main event/title matches signified a great moment of change for you?
