Favorite Wrestlemania post-match celebrations?
Last year at this time, we discussed the sexiest/funniest moments from Wrestlemanias past. But now...what are your favorite post-match celebrations that make you stand in awe?
One that definitely pops in my mind was Hulk Hogan's at Wrestlemania III in front of 93,173 fans at the Silverdome. Sure, there were other matches that night, but Hogan retaining the WWE championship belt at the end was the culmination.
Shawn Michaels after winning his first WWE title at Wrestlemania 12 reminds me of Natalie Portman receiving her Oscar last weekend after many, many years of hard work. At least being that she's pregnant, Natalie didn't arrive on the red carpet in an egg like Lady Gaga or coming down a zipline like Michaels.
Others include:
Chris Benoit with Eddie Guerrero (Wrestlemania XX)
Ultimate Warrior after claiming the WWE belt from Hogan (Wrestlemania VI, the first time they used pyro)
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin and Earl Hebner sharing a beer (Wrestlemania 15)
The Undertaker after ending Shawn Michaels' career while extending the streak to 18-0 (Wrestlemania XXVI)
Any others you remember?

XX was more emotional. Well, yeah.
X was pretty cool too.
But last I checked, Michaels and Hunter wrestled to a draw at 'Mania XX.

Right, but Gorilla Monsoon didn't want to it end that way and ordered the one-hour Iron Man Match to go into overtime.But last I checked, Michaels and Hunter wrestled to a draw at 'Mania XX.
Another memorable WM post-match celebration: Hulk Hogan, Mr. T, Muhammad Ali, Liberace, and Billy Martin from Wrestlemania I.

I don't think you've understood what he said, amigo. There's 8 years difference between those WrestleManias.

Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero-The greatest celebration ever.With Hbk and Stone Cold(storyline) two and three
The more predictable pick for this would be Eddie and Chris. In my opinion the best Post-Wrestlemania celebration was when Austin turned himself to the darkside. WM 17 when Vince McMahon himself helped Stone Cold to beat The Rock for the title. Second to this was of course the Eddie and Chris in WMXX. Words can't describe the emotions that ran through MSG during that celebrations. Kind of a let down of what happened about 4 years later. Third would have to be Taker/HBK last year. They both gave it their all in the sequel to the classic they had the previous year. When Taker showed some remorse at the end put shivers into my body. Great match and a great goodbye to HBK's awesome career.

Other than the obvious WM20 with Eddie and that guy(can't find the gif with eddie hugging the shadow figure lol). I liked the Rock-Hogan one at WM18. All the hype and everything into the match, then a great match, then afterwards it was a huge celebration(until the NWO came down) with the crowd going crazy.

WrestleMania 17 - Steve Austin and Vince McMahon.
WrestleMania 20 - Chris Benoit and Eddie Gurrero.

The Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit celebration at the end of XX, with the confetti coming up, hands down. As a wrestling fan, you could really feel the emotion that night. Benoit, really deserved the world championship and seeing him and Eddie, as champions, was epic.
