Whether you wish the current setup of WWE or choose the old man of WWF, true wrestling fans never lose a single WrestleMania event. It just happens once a year, but the creators of the event never go to leave an unforgettable show year after year. WrestleMania is frequently referred to as the grand daddy of all wrestling events because in its 25-year run, there has been no shortage of classic wrestling moments.
WrestleMania is where the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin and Shawn Michaels were catapulted to stardom, while giants like Yokozuna and Andre have fallen. To simply put, this is where wrestling history is made. Here are the 4 best WrestleMania moments that every fan will never ever forget.
Iron man match between Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart
Never has anyone seen a 60-minute wrestling match filled with charisma and electrifying moments until the first-ever iron man match between the WWF champion Bret "The Hitman" Hart and Shawn "The Heartbreak Kid" Michaels. Throughout the match, both wrestlers went at it like there was no tomorrow. Shawn Michaels ran, flew, and showed enormous flamboyance, while Bret Hart was cool, calm and gathered as he displayed finesse with his technical abilities and intelligent maneuvering. After the two legends beat the hell out of each other for the low 60 minutes, Gorilla Monsoon brought the pit into overtime to stop the deadlock. Two minutes later Shawn Michaels pinned Bret Hart after his good foot found its way in Bret`s chin. In the end, Michaels outperformed Hart and went on his way to get the WWF Champion.
Bret Hart beats Stone Cold Steve Austin to a Bloody Pulp
Fans will never leave the fit between Bret Hart and up and coming wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin that took station at WrestleMania 13. At the root of the match, the crowd favorite was Bret Hart but that off the reverse way as The Hitman showed a different and quite scary side of his character. He loaded a steel chair to Austin`s injured knee and continued on with his ruthless assault even after guest referee Ken Shamrock stopped the fight. Austin`s blood was all over the ring. Despite being all bloodied and beaten, Austin never tapped out when Hart applied the famous sharpshooter on him. Because of this, coupled with the terrible beating he received, Austin gained the fans` respect and this served as the turning point towards his future successes as a wrestler and a fan favorite.
Hulk Hogan body slams Andre the Giant
If there is one truly unbelievable and iconic moment in all of WrestleMania memories, it has to be the fit between then champion Hulk Hogan and Andre the Whale at WrestleMania III. Before the fight, many were doubtful that Hulk Hogan has what it takes to kill the 540-pounder. In fact, no one expected the Hulkster to win because there is no way he can slam or even suffer the Giant. This was further proven during Hogan`s first effort to body slam his opponent only to have Andre fall on him. By the end of the match, however, Hogan gathered all his powers and channeled the cheers from the crowd, and was capable to body slam Andre en route to a 3-count victory. GP
