Ranking EVERY WrestleMania From Worst To Best

14. WrestleMania XV

Shane McMahon WrestleMania XV
WWE

'Russo-mania' is a predictably frantic watch, scripted in the vein of one of his breakneck editions of Monday Night Raw from around the time. Like much of the product at the time, the matches fail to live up to billing, but precisely nobody gives a flying f*ck.

The Philadelphia crowd are red hot for absolutely everything, allowing an ordinarily daft encounter between Shane McMahon and X-Pac to hugely over-deliver and an underwhelming Rock/Stone Cold Steve Austin main event to look like a world-beater through the lens' of the locals.
