In honor of WrestleMania 23 coming up...

[The One]

Take some time and list what you think are the best 23 matches in WrestleMania history. I'm working on my list right now...

[St. Jimmy]

How many matches can TOVO find of Nash, Waltman, and Hall at Mania?

[Disturbed316]

In no order, although I'm going through Mania History on WWE.com, so the latest matches will be near the bottom, and these are from my personal view:

1- Hulk Hogan & Mr. T w/ “Superfly” Jimmy Snuka def. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper & "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff w/ Cowboy Bob Orton - Mania 1
2- The British Bulldogs def. The Dream Team, Brutus Beefcake & Greg "The Hammer" Valentine - Mania 2

[Xero]

How many matches can TOVO find of Nash, Waltman, and Hall at Mania?
I'm sure enough to fill out at least half the list.

[Blue Demon]

I think the Lesner-Angle match from WM 19 is very underrated.

[Xero]

I agree. The botched SSP overshadows the whole match for most people.

[Jeritron]

Wasn't sure what to grade by, so I just though overall with a mix of actual match skill and some mark and crowd criteria.
Not completely happy with my list, but its as good as I'll get it.

[The One]

How many matches can TOVO find of Nash, Waltman, and Hall at Mania?

I think I only had one of each of those fellers in there...

Michaels: 6
Triple H: 3
Gunn: 2
Flair: 1
Hall: 1
Nash: 1
Waltman: 1

[Jeritron]

NAO match from WM14 is severely underrated. With the exception of the two TLC matches, its the best tag title match in WM history. Not to mention its unfortunately the only appearnce of the NAO at wrestlemania as a team.

When I was younger I always used to want NAO to fued with Hardys, Edge, The Dudleys in a Tabbles ladders chairs and Dumpsters match haha

[The One]

jesus tovo, you pretty much have the same matches as me. I was gonna put Xpac/Shane for the european belt but I left it off for the streetfight

Yeah, our lists are pretty close...

[Caged Heat18]

NAO match from WM14 is severely underrated. With the exception of the two TLC matches, its the best tag title match in WM history. Not to mention its unfortunately the only appearnce of the NAO at wrestlemania as a team.

I definetley agree its a very underrated match, and I was trying to think about better tag title matches, aside from the TLC matches, and I can't really think of any. Although, while it is not nescessarily better, I think the Bulldogs/Dream team tag title match for Wrestlemania II is also underratted, and usually get forgotton because WM 2 was such a forgettable show.
