WWE Gallery: 35 Best WrestleMania Matches

24. Ric Flair Vs. Randy Savage - WrestleMania VIII

Final 35 Gallery

Yes, cold house show business deprived us of a huge missed opportunity in Hulk Hogan Vs. Ric Flair.

But this grand union of emotion and technique, one that built so well on another union—of technology and the most primal of human emotions—delivered not the biggest wrestling match of 1989, but a true classic of 1992.

Through foreign object shortcuts and the scheming interference of Mr. Perfect, this completed another union by the wildly popular finish—the workrate of JCP married to the big-time drama of the WWF.
