2 WrestleMania 19
Taking place on March 30, 2003, at Safeco Field in Seattle, Washington, WrestleMania 19 was the nineteenth annual WrestleMania event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). The event featured a memorable bout between Brock Lesnar and Kurt Angle for the WWE Championship, with Lesnar winning the title. It also marked the final WrestleMania match of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, who faced The Rock in a highly anticipated encounter.
The best Wrestlemania of all time. Lesnar vs Angle for the WWE Championship was amazing. Michaels vs Jericho was amazing. Hogan vs McMahon was pretty good, always fun to see someone like Hogan, Shane and Michaels to kick Vince's ass at Wrestlemania. Booker T vs Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship was really good. If Booker T leg didn't hurt throughout the match, he would be the World Heavyweight Championship. Austin vs The Rock 3 was really good as well. In my opinion, this Wrestlemania was the best and my 3rd favorite PPV of all time, behind Summerslam 2002 and Vengeance 2005.
3 WrestleMania 24
Held on March 30, 2008, at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida, WrestleMania 24 was the twenty-fourth annual WrestleMania event produced by WWE.

With over 93,000 fans in attendance, WrestleMania 3 set a new indoor attendance record at the time.
Wrestlemania 3 was great because of a successful risk Vince McMahon took to get an arena (no make that a stadium) to house the likes of Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage. 93,173 fans prove that the WWE was here to stay and marked the beginning of the end for other wrestling promotions like the AWA, World Class Championship Wrestling and Bill Watts' UWF.
Its Joeysworld.
Steamboat vs Savage was the only good match. Every other one was really bad.

This event featured two iconic matches: Bret Hart's victory over Yokozuna to win the WWF Championship and the critically acclaimed Ladder Match between Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon for the Intercontinental Championship, with Ramon emerging victorious.

The event also introduced the first-ever Money in the Bank Ladder Match, which was won by Edge. This Wrestlemania in my opinion is one of the better Wrestlemanias and one of the better PPV's of all time. Eddie Guerrero vs Rey Mysterio was really good, the first ever Money in the Bank ladder match was really good as well. Undertaker vs Randy Orton was really good. Michaels vs Angle for the first time ever was awesome. One of the best Wrestlemania matches of all time, also one of the best WWE matches of all time as well. Batista vs Triple H was good. Having Michaels vs Angle, the best match of the night easily go before Big Show vs Akebono in a sumo match and John Cena vs JBL for the WWE Championship is plain retarded cause both matches obviously sucked and probably why this Wrestlemania is ranked so low for where it should be. Overall, great Wrestlemania!
9 WrestleMania 23
Held on April 1, 2007, at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan, WrestleMania 23 was the twenty-third annual WrestleMania event produced by WWE. The event included the "Battle of the Billionaires" match between Bobby Lashley, representing WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon, and Umaga, representing Donald Trump, with the losing billionaire's head being shaved.

The others were good, but not great.

What? How am I the only person to vote for this? It's the #1 mania. I thought this would be #2 or #1. You had Hulk Hogan as the host. The end of Undertaker's streak. Daniel Bryan beating Triple H to get into the wwe championship triple threat. Daniel Bryan won the triple threat.

This was another Wrestlemania that had literally only one great match, that was Michaels vs Undertaker 2 Streak vs Career match. Cena vs Batista was good, not great. Every other match bored me.
