Which Rock vs Austin Wrestlemania match was your personal favorite? I'm going to have to go with 17 as my favorite.

Without a shadow of a doubt, its WM 17. And that's the bottom line, so know your role and shut your mouth.

No question it was 17. Remember the awesome buildup. Stone cold stunning Rock on Raw, then Rock trying to retaliate but getting stunned again, then Rock stunning Austin, all culminating with that big confrontation on SD before WM 17.
McMahon had been trying to keep them apart to "protect HIS main event."
I still get goosebumps watching them give beer toasts to each other before both guys go ballistic and just wail on each other.

I think it's a unanimous decision: 17

No way 19 was the best of them all.

I haven't voted just yet, may have to watch them again which I can't be bothered to right now. It's definitely between 17 and 19.
19 did have a truly epic ending, but then so did 17 I guess lol.

So uhhh...I guess I'm the only one who remembers everyone complaining about that match at WM 17 because both of them were faces at the time. As a matter of principle, 19 would be the better match because it was probably the Rock's most entertaining heel run. Remember the Rock concerts? Such classics as 'Whoopin Ass Again' and 'Leaving Sacramento' cannot go ignored. The match itself was hilarious as well. I remember the Rock putting on Austin's vest and mocking him, then gave him the stunner. I mean this was just hilarious. How can you say that the other ones were better?

Call me a redneck but 15 and 19 were better.
because Austin's heel turn was one of the stupidest things WWE ever did.
but the build up was awesome

The match at 17 was great, the one at 19 was just better.

17 was the best by far.....
I feel the match at 17 was tainted by the "dirty finish". I get why they did it - best way to turn Austin is to have him sell-out to McMahon. 19 was just the perfect finish to the fued.

I liked 19 the best since Rock finally got the proverbial monkey off his back by defeating Austin.

19 was the greatest story and Austin was smart enough to know that was it and made it a great match

17 and I was in the 2nd row for 19.
The build for 17 was the best by a mile

17, are you fucking crazy with anything else?
This match was the best Wrestlemania main event of all time.
Definitely WM 17. Though, I'll always be biased, since that was the first PPV I saw.

Can you have a dirty finish in a no-disqualification match? Everything is legal so if you don't use weapons what's the point?
I'm voting for 17 just because it was the end of an era. The Attitude Era was all about McMahon/Austin. The Rock/Austin feud spunoff from that feud, so mad props to the original.

WrestleMania 11 was the worst in my opinion.

I'd go with 17 but 19 was good also.
I can't remember much about 15 for some reason.

I think 15 ages very well, but it wasn't so special at that moment. 17 was amazing at that moment and hasn't aged all that well because the heel turn. 19 wasn't as good as 17 but was a great culmination to the series, it has age makes it better as well in my opinion. I'm gonna say 17 is the best but they all 3 have arguments.

I don't really remember any of the matches except that one that ended with Austin joining McMahon.
I never really liked Austin as a face, and I don't remember if I liked The Rock at these times.... just seem like I remember "not being very excited" for these matches..... I think.... who knows....

I voted for 17, but I remember the love for 19. I remember thinking that the build for it was really weird and just kind of there for that PPV. Austin and Rock had both sort of "moved on" at that point. Weird times.
