Can any moment live up to Hogan vs Rock
 

Do you think there will ever be a case where we can debate hogan VS rock as the best WM moment?

That match had the stars, the hype, and the delivery


I think only flairs retirement dwarfs this as best moment ever

bro that isn't even Hogan's biggest WM moment

As far as icon of the past vs icon of today, definitely not. Hogan is pro wrestling, Rock was at his peak in the Attitude era. Can't be topped.

Hogans biggest WM moment was being in the ring with this man:

hehe, too frail for a leg drop

I agree.

And IMO the match really wasn't that great.

I never liked Rock/Hogan, so quite a few matches could top the hype....

It was impressive for the crowd reaction alone...believe me, I was there....it was LOUD

Rock Hogan is up there, but I seem to remember the Austin/Rock matches having a really crazy sort of energy also.

Rock/Hogan wasn't even the best moment at that WrestleMania. The two greatest performers of our generation collided in the main event of WrestleMania XVIII in Toronto,Ontario,Canada in the legendary SkyDome. The Undisputed Championship was on the line, and a classic was delivered by these two living legends.

rock vs hogan does give me a nice little tickle on my spine but I can think of tons of other matches I'd rather watch...including:


Jericho vs Michaels
Michaels vs Hart
Michaels vs Undertaker - rounds 1 and 2
Flair vs Michaels

ect.....

You know what was a great Wrestlemania moment? Ultimo Dra*gets banned by Funky*

I'm not sure if you're serious but that match was decent/good at best. It was one of the worst built WrestleMania main events ever. The crowd was dead as this match was only 2 matches after Rock/Hogan. A lot of people in the stadium left after Rock/Hogan.

Go worship a cow, you piece of shit.

JamesSteele, what? That WM main event is universally known as a huge flop and and underbuilt mess. It was completely predictable, the crowd was more or less dead, Jericho wasn't built to look like a legitimate threat toward Triple H, and it followed Hall/SCSA AND Rock/Hogan. The actual match itself was good but many of the aforementioned elements ruined it.

In terms of hype it probably is Hogan's biggest Mania just due to how much bigger the company was at the time than his earlier days. But everything being equal, it's a tough call between Wrestlemania V and Wrestlemania VI. V is the better match and has a better build, but VI has more prestige because both titles are on the line.

Despite WM 18 being booked to be Triple H's "glorious" moment, I think the Wrestlemania 2000 fatal four-way was a bigger deal just because of how much of the public eye was on the WWF at the time. The boom period was peaking and the WWF SNL episode hosted by the Rock had just aired. That match was the culmination of around six months of storylines and sort of broke Triple H through into being a star "outside" of the confines of the WWF.

The four way match itself might not have been spectacular but it had all the other necessary qualities, including hype and fan reaction.

Exactly. Hogan held HHH down.

What about WrestleMania III?

Opinion. Opinion. Opinion.

A lot of people enjoyed the buildup.

Name 3

SCSA vs Shawn Michaels WM14

Check & Mate, cocksucker.

Thanks for ignoring my post James Steele. Last time I defend you. :mad:

I didn't want to hog all the greatness by myself. :kiss: Also, I have blocked Backlash 2002 out of my memory forever.

Nah it's all good :love:

:y: I was also there, to use the old cliche, the atmosphere was electric. The crowd audio on video doesn't do it justice at all. I will never forget it.

Also, yes, the Jericho-HHH match had people walking out of skydome, the crowd was essentially dead (compared to Hogan-Rock). We all came to see Hogan-Rock, that was the main event in our eyes.

So you can speak for 68,237 people?

Highly doubtful.

There seem to be plenty of people excited here:

Damn you James. :'(

here we go. Someone says something Juan doesn't agree with or like and Juan acts like a little bitch and continues his reign as the absolute shittiest mod of all time.

Fixed now. ;)
