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 |

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.

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

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..... |

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.

Maybe could rival Hogan-Rock in terms of mainstream hype because wrestling was still pretty kayfabed then. But realistically the match was a bodyslam because Andre was in bad shape at that point. Probably the most important of all of them in terms of them finally getting the Wrestlemania concept right. That's pretty important for non-wrestling reasons.

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. |
