Honestly, almost very Mania in the 20s runs together for me. I remember 20, mostly for the Benoit & Eddie wins and the Brock/Goldberg fiasco. I remember the Michaels/Taker matches from... 25 and 26? Clearly the shows made an impression. I was AT 27, so I remember it well, but the rest? Completely a blur. I'd given up on WWE by 30, and I don't see me watching another any time soon.
Just re-watched 12, 16, and 18. They're all solid shows, but I think middle of the road ranks are fair.
Seven was the first PPV I ever saw. So, it's got the nostalgia thing going for it. Savage/Warrior is maybe the greatest match... Ever? That might be too far. But it's incredible. One of the most perfect stories in wrestling history.
