6. WrestleMania 10 vs. Crush
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyQ1MGcgse8 The last WrestleMania match for Randy Savage was a Falls Count Anywhere match against Crush. The thing is, it wasn't like a regular Falls Count Anywhere match. The rules for the match were that you had to pin your opponent and then your opponent had 60 seconds to get back into the ring. Was it good? No. That's why they didn't use that stipulation regularly after this. Savage was back in the babyface role towards the end of his WWE career. Crush was a heel managed by Mr. Fuji, which was pretty awkward as an alliance, but they wanted to give Crush a push so they stuck Fuji with him. The mid 90s in WWE were a weird time, what can I say? The weird stipulations also led to moments like when Savage hit the Flying Elbow off the top in the center of the ring, then he had to roll Crush out to the floor, cover him outside the ring and then get the fall there. Even Vince McMahon was clearly confused on commentary because he was telling Savage to cover him in the ring. The fight went to the backstage area where Savage ended up hanging Crush by his feet, which prevented him from getting back to the ring after Savage had pinned him. The match was mildly entertaining for the 10 minutes it took place. It was only fitting that Savage won his last match at WrestleMania as the Madison Square Garden crowd in New York City cheered him on.
