Analysis: We continue to make our way through quite a bit of muck, but at least we get some serviceable bouts in this grouping.
However, it says something that the pure entertainment and, honestly, ridiculousness of a gimmick battle royal tops every other match on this board.
Many of these matches are time filler’s on their particular Mania cards, something WWE seemingly has finally realized are unacceptable nowadays.
Must-Watch: There are a few I’d point to if you’re looking to trying to kill a bit of time in your WrestleMania prep, or if you’re looking to put together some rare WWE trivia. Crush vs. Doink at WrestleMania 9 had quite a bit of build behind it, although on par with WWE’s cartoonish ways in the early nineties.
Also, the APA battling in Texas at WrestleMania 17 has the crowd into an otherwise bland match.
Or, if you’re simply looking for entertainment, watch Bart Gunn get his lights knocked out in an epic way by Butterbean at WrestleMania 15.
Hidden Gem: Doink The Clown vs. Crush at WrestleMania 9.
Greatest Mania matches ever:
3. Edge vs Foley WM22
2. Taker vs HBK WM25
1. (and this will always be the case, can never be topped – Steamboat vs Savage WM3 – also the greatest Mania ever)
