Consistent draw too. Really helped pave the landscape.

I'll be sure to check out the link Kimbo just gave. I am into seeing what Michaels & Flair can do at Mania.

But considering the past, I need more inspiration. Because I am one of the people who was excited to see the match they went onto have at Bad Blood 2003 and came out disappointed. Which doesn't help this upcoming match for myself now.

You want to credit someone for making Mania? Credit Vince. The only reason Savage is up there with the best at Mania (Which he is) is because of the amount of good matches he had, but he's not had as many or as many quality matches at least as HBK.

Again, it's personal opinion. HBK's matches at Mania are definitely well-known for being classics, but i'm not one of those people who see them that way.
I think the second HBK/Razor ladder match was better than the mania one, his match against Austin at mania was nowhere close to being as good as their KOTR '97 match either. I've never understood why the HBK/Benoit/HHH match gets so much love; it's just not my cup of tea.

Vince may have created Wrestlemania, but it wouldn't have taken off without Hogan. It was a two-way thing; Vince created it and Hogan put the butts in the seats.

There's too much stubborness in this thread, nobody is willing to relinquish any ground when it comes to discussion. Don't act like i'm insulting you or HBK, i'm just stating my opinion.

I can't believe i'm saying all this, i don't even like Hogan!

That's not stubborness then

Razor/HBK is epic. It's way better than the Summerslam match, it's a five star match. Paved the way for so many other matches, some say HBK's performance in that match is the single greatest in-ring performance ever. HBK/Austin from KOTR is better, but HBK/Austin pulling out a match like they did considering HBK was completely physically inept was pretty darn good. Like HHH/HBK/Benoit or not, it's probably the greatest Main Event to a Wrestlemania, ever. Not to mention the Angle, Jericho, and Hart matches.

Please tell me I did not see someone say that Triple H is more of a Mr.Wrestlemania than HBK.

Don't worry, it was the same person who said HBK was the worst seller of ALL TIME.

The only reason why that match was a disappointment was because of the lack of time it received.
