22 Days Of WrestleMania (#1 Best WrestleMania And Match)

Before I get to the final day of the countdown, I wanted to do a brief WrestleMania 22 preview. The predicted winner will be in bold and my predicted rating (out of 5) for the match will be next to it. I must say that this WrestleMania is one of the hardest to predict, which is definitely a good thing. I wouldn't be surprised to see some "shocking" endings tonight.

Booker T vs. Boogeyman (1.5)
Torrie vs. Candice (0)
Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus (1.75)

1. WrestleMania X-Seven
This was a no brainer. No WrestleMania, let alone pay-per-view that I've ever seen has come close to topping this show. The card was absolutely stacked and even the filler stuff was watchable. For technical wrestling fans, you had Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit. For brawling fans, you had HHH vs. Undertaker. For fans of more "extreme" wrestling, you had TLC 2 (#4 Best Match). For fans of nostalgia, you had the gimmick battle royal (featuring the Gobbledy Gooker). For fans of wrestling in general, you had the two biggest stars facing off, Austin vs. Rock (#7 Best Match). I remember watching this show in my friend Marc's basement and being completely entertained all four hours. This was the rare show where you didn't want to get up and go to the bathroom because you may miss something. Yes, folks, this is the GREATEST WrestleMania there is. If you were ever to waste your time watching wrestling, this is the one you should go out and watch.

1. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin (WrestleMania XIII)
WrestleMania XIII was a dud of a show. The card was full of matches that didn't have that WrestleMania feel. Of course there was one exception, and it saved the show from being the next WrestleMania IX. In 1996-97, the greatest feud was the Bret Hart/Steve Austin feud. Heck, the best feud ever was the Bret Hart/Steve Austin feud. They put on countless classic matches together, but none better than this one right here. This is not only my favorite WrestleMania match, it's my favorite match period. It's amazing how a "fake" sport can be so intense. You truly believed that these two guys hated each other, making the match all the more entertaining. No one will forget Steve Austin, with blood gushing out of his forehead, passing out while in the sharpshooter, causing guest referee Ken Shamrock to call the match. Austin's walk back to the locker room was greeted by a standing ovation, and one that was very much deserved. I still believe that when we reach WrestleMania 122, this will still be the greatest match in the greatest wrestling event.
