Curse you, Shawn Michaels. Had you not 'lost your smile' before WrestleMania 13, then we may have witnessed a much-anticipated rematch with Bret Hart on the biggest show of the year. Things worked out alright for Hart (he had a blistering Submission Match against Steve Austin instead), but the 'Mania main event didn't fare so well.

Just starting to creep out of his slow, zombie-like style inside the ring, The Undertaker was faced with the prospect of dragging Sycho Sid to a passable big man match to close out the pay-per-view. The tacked on No DQ stipulation didn't help things as hoped either. 'Taker vs. Sid was not a good match, and it went over 20 minutes.

This wasn't the main event fans wanted to see at 'Mania 13. A Submission Match between Hart and Michaels would have been much better. Yes, the absence of HBK did allow for Stone Cold to grab the spotlight, but sitting through that main event was torturous at the time.
