Ranking EVERY WWE WrestleMania Main Event From Worst To Best
1. The Rock Vs Stone Cold Steve Austin (WrestleMania 17)
The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin established the chemistry to have a truly world class one-on-one contest together years before they actually got around to it, but the responsibility of having a match so intrinsically era-defining that it closed the book on wrestling's second boom period was probably not the way they expected to have it.
A knackering and bloody fight, the two biggest stars in wrestling history underneath the memeable chin of Hulk Hogan tore into each other with vim that suggested they both thought it may be their last. Whilst their dynaamism would be relied upon countless times again, it was never as razor sharp as at WrestleMania 17.
The heel turn Steve Austin himself regrets to this day still feels tone deaf, but maniacally mashing Rock into the mat with a steel chair was the exact way to toast his ill-gotten-gain and a rare (for wrestling) bonafide season finale for an entire era.
