WZ’s Top Ten: WrestleMania WWE Title Matches

March 11, 2012

Number 1: WrestleMania X-7: The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin:

Rock. Austin. Vince. The storyline was perfect. The absolute two biggest stars in professional wrestling got a chance to steal the show and make Houston go absolutely crazy. With no DQ, Rock and Austin had a fast paced brawl, which led to a lot of outside fighting. Austin locked in the Million Dollar Dream, a move from the Ringmaster gimmick that got him nowhere. Rock would lock in a Sharpshooter. Remember, at this time, Austin was huge thanks to his feud with Vince McMahon. Rock would become the heel in Texas tonight, but when Vince helped Austin win, the crowd and the fans were in absolute shock. The match was incredible from beginning to end, with a pace that cannot be matched. Rock would carry a lot of the offense late until Austin would shed blood all over the ring. Chair shot after chair shot on The Rock gave Austin the victory but more importantly, his alliance with the “devil” Vince McMahon. Just over 33 minutes, there has never been a match with outside and inside story telling that was better than this. Rock and Austin go simultaniously together, and round two in Houston went to Austin when the dust cleared.
