WWE: 10 Best Wrestlemania Show Stealers

1. Bret Hart vs Steve Austin - WrestleMania 13

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a2gkZ-QIyII The main event of Wrestlemania is a special oppertunity given to a wrestler. To be in the main event match of a Wretlemania is to be given the chance to show everything you have and try to make a match that everyone, no matter what their preference in terms of wrestling style, should enjoy. The Bret Hart-Shawn Michaels Iron Man Match is a classic. The Triple Threat Benoit-Micheals-Triple H match is a classic. However, never before has a moment in Wrestlemania history so clearly undercut what was promoted as a 'main event' as the Bret Hart-Steve Austin match at Wrestlemania 13. Undertaker vs Psycho Sid? Give me a break. Hart-Austin is an era-defining moment in wrestling where you can actually see and hear the crowd and, by extension, the wrestling world, switch from the technical proficiency of Bret Hart to the tough as nails spirit of Stone Cold Steve Austin. To see Austin enter as the heel and to take (as well as dish out) such as beating and not give up when caught in a sharpshooter in the middle of the ring, is just as magical as when it happened live on Pay-Per-View. It truly shines above and beyond the main event and stands, as Austin screams in pain with blood in his eyes, as a moment when two men's careers changed. That, my friends, is something rarely seen in the squared circle and is still celebrated to this day.
