[8.0] "Enjoyed this show a lot. Starting the show with a return of Legion of Doom with Sunny was a great choice. Battle royal itself was... something I guess. There isn't anything that I can say was memorable about it. LOD wins, they got a new look, and as far as I remember, that was last thing of note that they accomplished in WWE. Godwinns and DOA pushes continue. Sigh. WWE had such a big number of tag teams back then and that division still sucked until late '99. *1/2 Taka/Aguila was a decent little match. When you compare it to cruiserweight matches WCW had on Nitro, it doesn't look that special, but they were trying. Taka was great, and I wish more people used Michinoku Driver as finisher. Nice showcase for both guys. *** I liked Owen/Triple H match, but it could have been better. Point of the match was that Chyna is tied to Slaughter and thus unable to a factor in the match so that Owen could have a clean bout with Hunter. Of course, Chyna was a factor in the match. Owen having H beat and still looking up to check on Slaughter after Chyna threw a powder in his eyes made him look stupid, which might have been the intention of the whole storyline. H also worked over the leg for the good part of the match, to no payoff. Crowd wanted to see Hart win. Vince didn't. End of the story. ***1/4 Mixed tag was fun for what it was. Needless to say, Sable was more over then 3 other people in the match combined, and not because of her wrestling skills, although she looked pretty good here in that regard. Thing with Sable is, she was never made to be a wrestler, and she isn't first nor the last wrestler to get over with horny male crowds so it's not a crime of hers to be sexy and not too good of a worker. Problem is, she was off to a great start and then never showed a single trace of desire to get better and improve and let her ego run wild. Goldust was as huge physically as Sable was over. Goldust and Marc had the workhorse role here. If you don't take this match too seriously, it might be more fun than expected. *** Rock had a funny backstage interview. Speaking of The Rock, his match with Shamrock was going well until the bell rang. Sounds weird right? Yep, because after beating up Rocky and winning with the Ankle Lock Shamrock is DQ'ed for doing something after the match was over. He kept the Lock on after bell rang and then crashed out after everything was over. The Rock got away, again, prompting the "He can't keep getting away with this" meme. Would have been a good story if not for worst Dusty finish in history of mankind. ** Dumpster rules match was well, something. Not my cup of tea, but it was fun. They were some stupid obviously rehearsed spots but it was going along with the stipulation. Outlaws as always, are fun until the bell rings, so that's why Terry and Mick are there. They played lunatics well as usual. Finish was cool. ***1/4 Undertaker/Kane match is dividing people to this very day, and I'm on the side that liked this match. Kane destroying Pete Rose, who had a large heat with the crowd, was a legendary bit. Undertaker's entrance was fantastic. You could cut intensity with a knife, the story was on another level and you can appreciate how good this one was comparing it to other matches they had. I still think a stipulation could make this better. They did a good job on presenting Kane as legit threat to Taker, to the point Taker had to go to extremes such as diving over the top rope and doing 3 Tombstones to beat him. Best match of the streak so far. As good as it can be with these 2 giants. ***3/4 Main event was better than I remember. This was Shawn's flu game, with a fucked up back he worked a match as usual, which means he took a load of hard back bumps that you can imagine did wonders to his health. Austin was, well, Austin. He always said how he hates this match, and I can see why, but I don't think Shawn's state took anything away from Austin' big crowning moment. It was less of a technical and more of a brawling match that worked fine for these two guys that had major injuries holding them back. If I had to compare it to their KOTR match, I'd take this one since they had an actual finish here, that is now a moment WWE can replay million times since it was a truly crucial moment in history. It felt like two biggest stars in the company fighting for number 1 spot, which is what WrestleMania main event should be. **** Thumbs up"

[8.0] "This is a WrestleMania that actually surprised me to good, great moments, entertaining, matches like the Dumpster Tag team match, Kane vs Taker and the Main Events with a great moment like the coronation of Stone Cold, overall amazing. 8/10"

[8.0] "Best overall WrestleMania of the Attitude Era: one where every match delivers. X-Seven had some great moments, but it was also filled with a lot of average or filler matches throughout. Absolutely iconic. The show is also very well structured, with a clear flow and excellent pacing from start to finish. A great diversity of matches and It's well divided and keeps a strong rhythm throughout."

[6.0] "(***). Overall, this WrestleMania is historically significant as it marks the official beginning of the Attitude Era. The event is particularly memorable for the crowning moment of Steve Austin, who had been the hottest star in the company for over a year. Unfortunately the show opens poorly with a pointless battle royal that does no favours for anyone involved. The event improves significantly after the opener, maintaining a good streak of matches up to and including the main event. None of the matches are bad, and they all serve to advance or conclude storylines while delivering memorable moments. The last two matches are my favourites, despite their flaws. While the quality of the matches doesn't reach great highs and each one feels about average (with some being slightly better than others), the event still deserves a thumbs up. It's not among the top WrestleManias in terms of match quality, but its historical context makes it a crucial entry in the series."

[7.0] "Overall a solid Wrestlemania (after the opener) there is no bad match on the card which cannot be said for previous Wretlemanias before it."

[7.0] "Wrestlemania 14 is an incredibly consistent card after the opening battle royal. Match after match is built and crafted magnificently, and the effort into making everything on this event stand out shows. But this is really a Wrestlemania known for its historical significance and moments more than overall match quality. The low blow on Owen, the dumpster bump from the ladder, the entrances and table spot from Taker/Kane, Austin winning the big one with JR's heartfelt cries behind it all. All of these are all time Wrestlemania moments that stand the test of time. But a lot of the matches are just solid outings in a vacuum. I love this Mania for how brilliantly the whole event was crafted out to be. I love watching Wrestlemania 14 as a whole event. But it lacks a little bit more if you go back to it trying to pick out a few matches. It is a rare event that really needs to be watched in full and not cherry picked, or a lot of the context and overall design is lost."

[6.0] "Just watch from Tennessee Lee in the ring through to Pete Rose being Tombstoned and this is a tremendous 30 minutes. First up, one of the great comedy matches of the era. Rock full on crying scumbag and Shamrock doing his best twitching 2 bit psycho routine. Now I like a ref bump as much as the next guy, at the end there's 3 here and watch the for the clown in the green suit. Funk & Cactus beat up on the New Age Outlaws and ending with Rose's all time guest heel promo."

[7.0] "I have this on VHS, I figured I would give it a watch. The Rock vs Ken Shamrock: 7/10....... It was a fine match with a few good moments even if it should've been better. I wish they wouldn't have done the reverse finish and kept it with Rock tapping........ The show as a whole, while not being the best was entertaining after you got through the first handful of matches. Once you get to the dumpster match, the show starts getting better"

[8.0] "When you're talking the best WrestleManias, WM17 was lightning-in-a-bottle greatness but I wouldn't begrudge anyone giving WM14 the runner-up spot. It's a brisk 2hr45min watch with minimal downtime between matches and little drag in the matches themselves; only the battle royal and Undertaker/Kane will have you checking the time, and those are respectively buoyed by the returning LOD with smoking hot Sunny in tow and the story/visuals of the Brothers of Destruction soap opera. TAKA/Aguila, HHH/Owen, and the mixed tag are all good midcard fare and Rock/Shamrock is a brilliant angle that makes the former a bigger bastard than ever and the latter look absolutely killer. The dumpster match is a fun little spotfest and a Terry Funk title win on the flagship show is a wonderful thing, while the main event delivers all it can given the circumstances and stands as the culmination of the most important success story in company history. There isn't any classic on this card nor any crazy production value or stadium spectacle, but it's one of the shows that most successfully lives up to the ambitions of late-90s WWF - strong characters, rocking crowds, smart booking, easy viewing."

[10.0] "One of the most important WrestleManias of all time. Even if both men wanted a better match, the Austin/Michaels main event is still very fun and and an iconic torch-passing moment. Undertaker vs. Kane isn't a technical wrestling classic, nor should it have been; it was exactly what the story called for, a very good Godzilla vs. King Kong battle between two indestructible monsters. The dumpster match was great fun, and the mixed tag match provided a surprising showcase for Sable. All in all, an excellent show, and probably the third best WM of the '90s (behind X and VIII)."

[8.0] "This event got me back to being invested in the WWF when I was team WCW in 1998. I remember some co-workers going on and on about this show, making it sound like the most interesting show ever aired. So I checked it out and loved it. It still holds up pretty well, and it did help get more eyes on the product at the time."

[9.0] "Definitely one of the most underrated WrestleMania of all time, every single match on this card except the opener was fun and entertaining, topping it off with Austin's crowning moment in a very solid main event makes this an excellent and historic show."

[8.0] "Fantastic introduction in to the golden phase of Attitude Era. Endings of incredibly intense and emotional storylines were executed in a well proportion of pure wrestling and entertainment. Best Mania of the late 90s."

[7.0] "Wrestlemania 14 is an AMAZING event! The only down-point is the worst match of the show, The Tag Team Battle Royal, being the opener (2/10). After this? Everything ranges from good to great to amazing! The Light Heavyweight Title match is short but fun (5/10), the European Title match is great (6/10), and so is the Mixed Tag Team match (6/10). While not being able to rate it, the entire The Rock vs Ken Shamrock portion is also quite good, and its followed by the great Tag Team Title Dumpster Rules Match (6/10) and the amazing clash between The Undertaker and Kane (7/10). The Main Event between Stone Cold and Shawn Michaels is also AMAZING (7/10). It's clearly hurt by Shawn Michaels' injury, but they were able to put on an entertaining match that served as an excellent finale to the show and crowning moment for Austin. All in all, this Wrestlemania got only one bad match. Besides that, everything is enjoyable and either good, great or amazing. At this point in time I would easily consider it to be the most enjoyable Wrestlemania purely based on the quality of the ENTIRE show. Obviously no match on this card reaches the level of Hart vs Hart, Michaels vs Ramon or Savage vs Flair, but from start to finish, this show simply has the best flow and that really affects the overall experience of the event. Because of that, I have to give it the same rating as Wrestlemania 10, which is (7/10), making it among the best rated Wrestlemania at that point! Yes, Wrestlemania 10's two classics are better on their own, but when it comes to the entire show? Then Wrestlemania 14 is easily the most enjoyable so far!"

[7.0] "This was an important mania for WWF as this was the WWF trying to keep their foot at the atitude era and still say "we aren't done yet" during the wars. And the matches were great, apart from the mixed tag, the tag battle royal and the rock vs shamrock match. This is a fun show made to ensure that WWF is fighting back in the Monday night wars"

[7.0] "Opening match aside, this is a really fun WrestleMania that builds nicely to a solid main event. Highly enjoyable."

[9.0] "I think this is a highly underrated WrestleMania and is really good fun from the second match onwards. The matches and gimmicks are entertaining and the time passes by. Then you've got Kane vs. Undertaker that I think is a hidden gem, and the beginning of the Austin era. It's an easy watch and it's a history making show."

[4.0] "Well this is my wrestling hot take I don't think a single soul will agree with. Personally I didn't like this Mania much. Aside from 4 matches there isn't much here. Those matches in question are Owen/HHH, Undertaker/Kane, Taka/Aguila, aswell as TerryandCactus/Outlaws. Personally the mainevent never clicked with me as much as it did for some other people. Don't get me wrong it's impressive how Shawn pulled off sucha performance injured but the match never really clicked with me. Overall thus is far from the worst Mania but this still isn't great"

[6.0] "6.4/10: with the royal rumble promising us great stuff, and what could have been great stuff, we got a slight downgrade. The three openers were mediocre, and just absorbed the excitement of the greatest show. The ic title match was just revisiting the rumble match for me, the dumpster match was my top match of the night, i dont care what anybody says. Kane vs taker was a pretty nice match, but couldnt age too well to get liked now. The main event was pretty self explanatory. The mania overall ended on the good side, almost a new dawn for the company, the attitude era..."

[5.0] "Match 1: 3/10 Match 2: 6/10 Match 3: 7/10 Match 4: 6/10 Match 5: 4/10 Match 6: 7/10 Match 7: 6/10 Match 8: 8/10 Total: 5.87/10"

[6.0] "First wrestlemania where Ive actually enjoyed most of it, still not amazing the opener and the Taker v Kane match being the lowest points of a solid show"

[9.0] "Excellent Wrestlemania and I have to say it's one of the most underrated shows on this website. I thought the show delivered on just about every match besides the terrible battle royal opener. Austin and HBK both worked the main event hurt, but still delivered a strong match and Austin's rise to the top came to a satisfying conclusion. I thought Taker and Kane was a very strong storyline match where Kane looked like a monster even in defeat. The mixed tag match was shockingly good for what it was and much better than it should have been which really took full advantage of Sable's popularity. The Dumpster match was fun with the backstage finish feeling like a precursor to the Hardcore division. HHH vs Owen was solid even though I wish Owen had got the win and Taka vs Aguila has some insane stuff for the short time it got."

[8.0] "This Wrestlemania knocked it out of the park in terms of being the perfect blend of Attitude Era Style "Sports Entertainment" and consistently solid wrestling (aside from the Battle Royal but at least it was short). It will always stand as one of my favorite Wrestlemanias for being such a great encapsulation of the Attitude Era in general."

[8.0] "This is a great show and one of the most important ppv of all time as it is considered the start of the attitude era by most you have a great main event match between shawn michaels and steve austin you have kane vs undertaker and the rest of the show is pretty good as well. The only bad match on this show was the opener."

[3.0] "Such a mediocre show, it has a feeling that has never been felt on the wrestlemanias, it just does not feel like one. All the matches are meh, fine, or boring, some of the rivalries were very well constructed, and the crowd is not like dead silent, but is so forgettable, this has nothing to it more than the end."

[8.0] "Fantastic WrestleMania! I didn't expect it to be that good after the horrendous opener with the unwatchable chaos of a Tag Team Battle Royal, but at least it wasn't too long and then the proper show started. Light Heavyweight Title match wasn't bad, but both Taka and Aguila wanted to fit so much stuff into 5 minutes that almost none of the big moves really registered with me. Then Triple H and Owen had a great and simple heel vs face dynamic with Hunter constantly cheating and having people wonder how will Chyna eventually interfere in this. Mixed Tag Team Match was probably the biggest surprise here for me, as Sable might have been the most over person on the whole show. They didn't have her wrestle much, but when she was in the ring the fans were losing their minds. Rock vs Shamrock was a phenomenal angle and even though the match itself wasn't as hot as their Royal Rumble encounter the aftermath got the crowd going. Ken losing his mind was such a great thing to watch and everybody just wanted Rocky to get his ass kicked - brilliant stuff, the best thing on the show. Dumpster Match was also a pleasant surprise for me as I hate Foley's and Funk's hardcore stuff, but here it wasn't all about spots and they did have some place for the character work. Outlaws worked nicely as prick heels and the whole thing felt like a fight, without anybody looking like they're getting prepared for the next spot. Taker and Kane had a great buildup and the match had me hooked until the final minutes when they just started no selling each other's moves and then the main event ended everything on a positive note. It wasn't a technical masterpiece that Michaels and Austin had at King of the Ring, but their feud was hot and the crowd was reacting to everything they were doing. Simple things got big pops and Stone Cold finally winning the big one felt huge. A really good PPV with some of the hottest stuff in the company's history."

[8.0] "This was technically the first Wrestlemania of the Attitude Era, and it really delivered big time, because outside of the battle royal opener, everything else clicked, despite not all the matches being classics. HHH/Owen, Undertaker/Kane, Taka/Aguila, and the main event were all really good matches."

[6.0] "This wasn't an amazing PPV by any means, but apart from the battle royal this has to be the most consistent Mania so far. From TAKA/Aguila to HBK/Austin every bout is perfectly fine with some decent moments in there, even if none of the matches are classics. Biggest higlights probably were Takers big dive, the ending of the Main Event and seeing how over Sable was during the mixed tag match"

[7.0] "This was overall not necessarily the greatest show, nor the greatest Wrestlemania. But if you have kept up with what the federations rival WCW was up to at this same time, then youll see Mania 14s biggest positive. Its consistency. No match besides the opening tag battle royale was bad, and even then the opener featured LOD returning at least. Everything else was still ranging from moderately enjoyable at least to genuinely good."

[7.0] "Good show! Nothing that blows you away but no bad matches bar the opener, and even that had the cool reaction to LOD. The mixed tag, Shamrock going nuts for some reason, the aesthetics of 'Taker/Kane, the Austin era begins, it's an entertaining time."

[7.0] "A great Wrestlemania! Finally! It only took 14 of them! Every match had something going for it and aside from the opener (which was kinda bad except from the Road Warriors), every match had it's moments. The light heavyweight title match was fun, HHH/Owen were working well, Mero/Sable vs Luna/Goldust was a huge surprise and my personal MOTN, Rock/Shamrock was intense and brutal, the Dumpster match was fun and charming in it's ways, Kane/Taker was okay but was a huge spectacle and the main event saw the crowing of Austin. Nothing reached the previous years' Bret/Austin all-timer but everything was a solid watch."

[6.0] "A card that was built on the two top matches but watching it back I have come away somehow enjoying the mixed tag match the most."

[5.0] "This might have been the best WrestleMania overall going back to 10. The undercard was kinda forgetful but the matches weren't terrible, just very middle of the road. But middle of the road matches are better than a bunch of duds. Michaels/Austin and Taker/Kane are the ones that stand the test of time."

[7.0] "Every match here is solid except for the battle royal which was expected because it's 30 people in the ring at once trying to throw one another over the top rope. I wouldn't call any of the matches except for Michaels vs Austin great, however. The light heavyweight match was alright and Rock/Shamrock was a fun 5-minute brawl and seeing Shamrock go crazy postmatch was fun. The show overall had a big show feel to it and it was great. Matches from best to worst: Austin/Michaels ****, Funk & Cactus vs New Age Outlaws ***1/2, Mixed tag ***1/4, Triple H vs Owen Hart ***, Taker/Kane ***, Rock/Shamrock **1/2, Taka/Aguila **1/2, Battle Royal *"

[6.0] "Pretty much every match here is good but not great, with the exception of the Battle Royal and the Intercontinental title match. The first Kane/Taker match and Austin's first World title win are the important matches, and while they're both good they don't quite reach the next level."

[7.0] "I think it is a solid WrestleMania but lacks that one all time classic match that people are gonna talk about for years to come. Yes there were a lot of solid matches but nothing that's must see. Austin/HBK had potential to be that great match but unfortunately due to Shawn's back injury it failed to deliver."

[7.0] "Oh my God, it's a halfway decent Mania... HALLELUJAH! Okay it's not all rainbows and sunshine, there really aren't any classic matches on this show and Taker vs Kane went real real long. That being said though, the rest of this show was decently consistent and had some great moments. L.O.D.'s return, the light Heavyweight title match. Chyna and Luna existing, Shamrock's post match meltdown, the tag title match and Austin's big win were all highlights of this show and while it wasn't the most dynamic Mania, it's a sharp contrast from the crap ones we were getting for the years prior to this. The best Mania since Mania 8 by far, thank God. Thumbs up."

[8.0] "So LoD 2000 is pretty much the same as LoD except with... some combination of hockey, football and racing helmets? The first dozen minutes of action is just a mess, and then maybe you'll get some entertainment when there's less people in the ring. The entire point of this match must've been to get LoD back in the mix. It's followed up with Taka Michinoku defending his title against Aguila, a damn fine luchador. I can't get over how cool it is when Taka jumps onto the top rope and onto his opponent, looks equally crazy each time. It's just a bummer they were only give like 6 minutes in the ring. Hunter/Hart match for the European Title was also solid, good in the ring with a nice little twist of Chyna being handcuffed to Slaughter in a failed attempt to keep her from interfering. The mixed tag team match saw, as far as I know, the first action between women in the WWF since '95? No-one cared about Goldust or Mero, this was all about Sable and Luna, and it was honestly quite the treat. While it starts out like a catfight, it ends with Sable powerbombing Luna before delivering a TKO. Because WWF felt the audience had had too much fun so far, we have to watch Shamrock in the ring again. Not only that, but he's the new Intercontinental champion. Great. At the very least we get progression with the Nation falling apart. And then Shamrock goes crazy and stuff. Whatever. The Dumpster Tag Team match is a mess as expected, but interesting with a couple cool spots, like a fall into the dumpster from the ladder, and a funny ending where the NAO ends up getting forklifted into a different dumpster. I didn't expect Funk and Foley to come away with the win, but I'm happy about it. Undertaker's entrance was absolute fire, the crowd absolutely in love with it. Undertaker and Kane finally get to meet in the ring after Undertaker's long absence. It starts out with a bit of back and forth, but Kane quickly takes complete control over the match. There are some cool spots. At one point Undertaker's sitting on Kane's shoulders pummeling his head. There's also a suicide dive from undertaker that misses the mark and destroys the Spanish announcer's table. There's also a real cool point where Undertaker's got Kane up and ready for a tombstone, but ends up flipping backwards to himself take a tombstone piledriver. A third tombstone after a flying clothesline from the top rope gives Undertaker the win as Kane kicks out just too late. Crazy match! Main event time, and nothing gives the chills like hearing the crowd's pop when that glass shatters before Austin's arrival. Such a damn well paced match, I don't know how much pain HBK was actually in with his back at this point, but if it wasn't a lot, then he sold it damn well. A lot of back and forth with only short breaks for either wrestler. In the ring, out of the ring, on the announcers' table, over the fencing. Tyson giving a pretty fast 3-count because of the ref being knocked out was probably a bit of a shocker."

[8.0] "One of the better WrestleMania's up to this point. An incredibly historic one with Stone Cold Steve Austin being crowned as WWF's top guy, winning the WWF Championship. Crowd was hot from start to end, and each match was good."

[4.0] "Not an awful show but like most mainas up to this point, filled with average matches with the odd good one. Of course the Outlaws vs Jack/Funk athc was good and the HBK/Austin match was surprisingly solid enough. The rest is a skip. Maybe the mixed tag for a bit of fun but nothing else worth watching. BEST TO WORST: The New Age Outlaws vs. Cactus Jack & Chainsaw Charlie - [***]. Shawn Michaels vs Stone Cold - [**3/4]. Luna & TAFKA Goldust vs. Marc Mero & Sable - [**1/2]. Taka Michinoku vs. Aguila - [**]. Kane vs. The Undertaker - [**]. 15 Tag Team Battle Royal - [*1/2]. Triple H vs. Owen Hart - [*1/4]. The Rock vs. Ken Shamrock - [*]."

[8.0] "The second best WrestleMania in the attitude era period. Just watched it and I loved it. Never saw before in its entirety, it was one of the most influential shows in history of World Wrestling Entertainment, the one that allowed The Company to beat WCW in Monday Night War Rating. Great undercard, really really solid, taka michinoku vs Aguila great match for the Light Heavyweight championship, good bout between Owen Hart and Triple H, and good match between Rocky Maivia vs Ken Shamrock. The Dumbster match between Cactus Jack and Chainsaw charlie vs New Age Outlaws was really funny, incredible the fact that at that time Terry Funk was already 50 years old and he is still wrestling to this days! Fucking amazing. Kane vs Undertaker is one of my favorite matches ever. I know from a technical point of view is not a great match but nobody give a shit about that, there will never be another Undertaker, it could easily be great wrestler sport entertainers in the future and in the present but there will never be a superstar able to storytelling and create something MORE than just a great match than The Undertaker, to be a Legend and told us Great stories, like the one in this event against his brother Kane, who at the time wasn? t the Kane we know to this days , he was an incredible and invincible Kane , the only to be able to keep up to The Phenom , it was a in ring warfare between to titans, 4 Tombstones, a thing that at the time was unimaginable, and Kane seemed superior to the deadman. Undertaker the greatest legend of all times. The Main Event is not one of the best ever but it was one of the most important. Congrats to HBK to have come up to Mania with a back destroyed just to pass the torch to Austin and make it the icon that would later become in the years to come. They both had performed better matches at the Grandaddy but this one was one of those moments that stands the passage of time. The Austin era has begun said JR at commentary table. Iconic Quotes."

[8.0] "Not a bad Wresltemania. It was better than the previous installment but had a few too many filler segments. The Main Event stands out above the rest and helps bump it up a couple of points alone."

[7.0] "Slightly above average Mania overall in terms of match quality but there was too much entertainment throughout for me to give it a 6. Sure, the only really great matches on the show were the dumpster match and the main event, and even calling the dumpster match "great" is a bit of a stretch, but it was just too much fun for me to really care. Mania being 3 hours around this period helps things a lot and it lets the card breathe more. European title (**1/2) and Mixed tag (***) matches are two unexpected hidden gems for Mania, mixed tag especially. I wouldn't expect a match with Sable in it to entertain me as much as it did, but that crowd, man! They help immensely. Action's decent, crowd reaction is godly. Taker/Kane's match doesn't at all compare to the feud going in but it's still enjoyable in places (**) and 3 Tombstones helps keep Kane slightly dominant as well as the post-match angle. Only really negative things about this show is the boring af battle royal and the ending to Rock/Shamrock's okay IC title match. DQs at Mania are a big no no in my book. Overall, surprisingly great show."

[7.0] "Fairly good Wrestlemania. It was easy to get through and had a fair amount of good matches. It also has some really memorable matches that are famous like Undertaker vs Kane and Austin vs Michaels. The battle royal was probably the worst match. If not that one it was Shamrock vs Rock which was really boring and had a bad finish. Aguila vs Taka was a fun, quick match. Helmsley vs Hart was a good match and was exciting to watch. The mixed tag match was really good and was third best match on the show. The dumpster match was really good as well and had some good spots and was second best on the show. Undertaker vs Kane is not the best match in the world but it is also not the worst. A pretty serviceable big man match. Kane was pretty boring. Undertaker impressed me throughout the match and was very good. Michaels vs Austin was a really good match and a felt big which is good for a main event."

[3.0] "This WM was huge disappointed for me. Battle Royal was good for the moment when LOD returned and won but overall this match was chaotic shitstorm, *. Michinoku vs Aguila was good 6 minute sprint, **1/4. There wasn't much heat in the first half of Triple H vs Owen Hart. In the second half of the match it was better but still not good. Hart's selling of the leg was weak and the interference at end of the match was unnecessary, **1/4. I don't give damn about that mixed crap. Shamrock vs Rock was pretty weird, more interesting stuffs happened after the match, *3/4. Dumpster tag match had some good spots but overall it was garbage, *3/4. In Undertaker vs Kane match there was pretty good storytelling but crowd didn't buy it and some botched moves didn't help neither, **3/4. Main event was match of the night but it don't say much. Last Michaels' match before the long break. Nothing memorable happened in the match until the finish. It wasn't bad, it was pretty good, just not WM Main Event level of match, ***. Overall this Wrestlemania just feel like glorified weekly show..."

[8.0] "I thought this Wrestlemania was a pretty solid one for what it was. The Battle Royale was a decent little opener and LOD got a pretty good pop for their return, even though LOD 2000 definitely wasn't my personal favorite revision of the team. I thought Taka vs Aguila was ok. It made me realize how much of an underrated athlete that Aguila was, but the match itself was a short and simple High Flying bout. Triple H Vs Owen was mediocre, but I found it kind of odd that Owen wasn't selling the leg that was injured, even after Triple H went after it and the whole Chyna being handcuffed to Slaughter stipulation. Wrestling was alright I mean its Owen and Triple H so it definitely wasn't terrible, just kind of slow and boring for the most part. The Tag match was alright, it got some good crowd pops for Sable, and Mero and Goldust filled the space in between tags well. Shamrock and Rock was a little shorter than what I expected but, I feel if it had gone longer, I probably would've been put to sleep so it was alright, but for the IC title was a little disappointing. I for one loved the Dumpster gimmick match mostly for the spots that Foley and Funk took. and the feud itself was very well built as well. But that ladder dumpster spot made me jump as I had forgot about it. Kane and Undertaker was a spectacle outside of the ring, but inside it failed to live up to expectations. It was built so highly to be an all out war, but in the end we got a slow match, that was 80 percent Kane knocking the hell out of Undertaker. But, I like this match because it is very nostalgic for me. Growing up I loved it when Taker and Kane would collide and seeing the first of the series was very enjoyable. in the ring, not the best match- outside, i loved the build and the characters. Shawn and Austin, is easily the best match of the show. Such a well worked match, even with Shawn in pain from the back injury. The ending was great. Austin era begins, and with it a whole new attitude."

[8.0] "Great show, some people think that it's a start of Attitude era. Opener is very bad, only reason for that to be at Mania is reunion of LOD. Taka vs Aguila is good little light heavyweight match. Hunter vs Owen is a great emotional match that tales good story. Mixed tag match is good for what it was. Rock vs Shamrock is okay for its length. Dumpster match is very entertaining. The best hardcore WWF match so far. Undertaker vs Kane is awesome too. Perfect big man match with big intrigue. Main event is just good. It could be much better if not Michaels's injury. But he gave us rememberable Mania main even with injured back. That's how good he was."

[9.0] "Underappreciated Mania. They've really tapped into Attitude mode with the blockbuster main event and it's fascinating to see that change throughout the undercard too. Thoroughly enjoyed this one."

[7.0] "Fifteen Team Battle Royal was not that good and very predictable, Michinoku vs Aguila is a decent match with some good spots. Triple H vs Owen Hart is a pretty below average match that I didn't care for. The wrestling in between Mero and Goldust was actually pretty good and Sable did what she could considering how skilled she was in ring, but managed to pull off a good finish, overall an above average match. Rock vs Shamrock was too short and the tag team match was fun with an awesome finish and ladder spot. Kane vs Undertaker delivered as expected. Finally onto the main event, Steve Austin vs Shawn Michaels, great match between 2 of my all time personal favorites, really solid match with one of the greatest finishing sequences although I didn't like Tysons fast 3 count. Satisfactory Wrestlemania and way better than the previous years."

[8.0] "A fun show with my favorite matches being Kane vs. The Undertaker and Taka Michinoku vs. Aguila. Also a good build up for the future."
