Other fans have already thrown down their picks. Now it's your turn. Let's see which WWE events truly earned their spot at the top.

The Top Ten

  1. WrestleMania X-Seven (2001)

    Hands down the best WrestleMania ever. The second match of the Rock/Austin trilogy, this time a No DQ match for the WWF Championship, was a hellacious brawl with false finishes galore. Steve Austin ultimately reclaimed the gold after doing the unthinkable: accepting help from Vince McMahon, whom he had feuded with throughout the Attitude Era.

    Every other match on the card, ranging from Undertaker/Triple H, to the Vince/Shane McMahon Street Fight, to the triple threat tag team TLC match, was great and felt like a main event in its own right. There was very little filler material during this event, and every match seemed to click perfectly with the live audience, something that appears to be a lost art in today's era of WWE television.

  2. WrestleMania XIX (2003)

    Best WrestleMania match ever! Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho was the best match in my lifetime. Lesnar vs. Angle was great also, as was Austin vs. Rock III.

    Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho stopped the show when it barely got started.

    WrestleMania 17 and 19 are by far the two greatest WWE events of all time!

  3. Money in the Bank (2011)

    A fantastic PPV. CM Punk vs. John Cena was purely epic! The crowd was wild, and this was the true beginning of Mark Henry's Hall of Pain. The RAW Money in the Bank match was amazing and had superstars fit for it.

    I lost my voice screaming in the Chicago crowd by the end of the night. CM Punk and John Cena put on a terrific match, one of the best I've seen in the last 10 years.

    Very nice PPV, best of the past years. I liked both the matches of SmackDown and RAW. There was always something going on. Ladders are always good.

  4. WrestleMania 25 (2009)

    This literally had one great match, and that was the best match in WWE history: Michaels vs. Undertaker. Every other match was boring or not good. Triple H vs. Orton didn't live up to the hype. Cena vs. Edge vs. Big Show was okay but not good. Mysterio vs. JBL was short, and every other match wasn't good. Jeff vs. Matt was the second best match of this PPV but still just okay.

    No other match ripped my heart out like Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels.

    Taker and HBK match was probably the best WrestleMania match ever.

  5. WrestleMania XXVIII (2012)

    This PPV is the most unbelievable WrestleMania ever. These are some of the reasons why it was so awesome:

    1. Sheamus beating Daniel Bryan in 18 seconds

    2. Randy Orton kicking out of an RKO

    3. Kane's chokeslam to Randy Orton off the second rope

    4. Big Show's great spear to Cody Rhodes

    5. Big Show winning the I-C Championship

    6. Undertaker's match with Triple H

    7. Undertaker kicking out of a superkick/pedigree

    8. Undertaker beating Triple H, having his streak 20-0

    9. Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, and Zach Ryder's dive

    10. Team Johnny beating Team Teddy

    11. CM Punk beating Chris Jericho

    12. The Rock beating John Cena

    This is why WrestleMania is so AWESOME.

    This was a good PPV, not gonna lie, but there weren't that many great matches. Punk vs. Jericho for the WWE Championship, Triple H vs. Undertaker in Hell in a Cell with Michaels as special guest referee, and Cena vs. The Rock.

  6. SummerSlam (2002)

    Solid matches all around, but Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels was brutal, to say the least. Good to see the showstopper back in action since his WrestleMania 14 match with Austin in 1998.

    Every match on the card was very good. I'd say top three worthy. It's right next to WM X-7 for me.

  7. WrestleMania XXIV (2008)

    WWE Title: WWE Champ Orton vs. Cena vs. HHH.

    WWE World Title: World Champ Edge vs. 'Taker.

    Big Show vs. undefeated boxer Floyd "Money" Mayweather.

  8. Survivor Series (2002)

    All the matches were excellent except Lesnar vs. Show.

    All championships changed hands at this event.

  9. SummerSlam (2013)

    This was the best PPV of all time! CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar and John Cena vs. Daniel Bryan were two amazing matches.

  10. WrestleMania XXX (2014)

    This is definitely my favorite PPV. There are so many reasons it's awesome:

    1. The opening segment with Hulk Hogan, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and The Rock

    2. Daniel Bryan beating Triple H

    3. The Shield's double Triple Powerbomb to The New Age Outlaws

    4. Antonio Cesaro lifting Big Show over the top rope

    5. John Cena beating Bray Wyatt

    6. Brock Lesnar ending The Undertaker's streak 21-1

    7. A.J. Lee keeping her title one last day

    8. Daniel Bryan hitting Triple H with a sledgehammer

    9. Randy Orton and Batista doing a Batista Bomb/RKO on Daniel Bryan through the announce table

    10. Daniel Bryan winning the WWE World Heavyweight Championship

    I loved this PPV. My favorite matches were Triple H vs. Daniel Bryan, John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt, and the main event, Randy Orton vs. Batista vs. Daniel Bryan. The beginning segment between WrestleMania X host Hulk Hogan, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, and "The Great One" The Rock was definitely awesome.

    Also, Antonio Cesaro picking up Big Show and putting him over the top rope, and The Shield's double triple powerbomb on The New Age Outlaws, were also pretty great parts of the night.

    But I still can't believe that the streak is over. It took Brock Lesnar three F5s to finally conquer the streak. WrestleMania XXX was by far the best PPV of 2014 and probably my favorite PPV WWE has ever put together. I am definitely getting this on DVD.

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    Survivor Series (2016)

    All were great except for the last match (Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar).

    My favorite was the men's traditional match (though Cesaro made the tag team traditional match interesting when he performed the 619).

  12. ?

    ECW One Night Stand (2005)

    13. The Contenders

  13. WrestleMania III (1987)

    Savage vs. Steamboat, Hogan vs. Andre. Enough said. Two big-time classics.

  14. Royal Rumble (2009)

  15. WrestleMania XX (2004)

    This should be higher. This PPV was stacked. Christian vs. Chris Jericho was good. Legacy vs. The Rock n' Sock Connection was entertaining. Lesnar vs. Goldberg wasn't good at all, but Austin at the end made it great. John Cena vs. Big Show for the United States Championship was pretty good. Eddie Guerrero vs. Kurt Angle for the WWE Championship was really good.

    One of my personal favorite matches of all time, Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Benoit vs. Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship, was also included. At the end, when Benoit and Guerrero ended the show in the ring together with their titles, it was epic!

  16. Hell in a Cell (2009)

    Three hours of hell. Three Hell in a Cell matches. Steel hitting flesh, tearing flesh, drawing and creating blood.

  17. In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede (1997)

    Not many matches, but all top-notch.

  18. SummerSlam (2012)

    I choose this one because of the main event.

  19. Cyber Sunday (2007)

    WWE Title: "Viper" WWE Champ Randy Orton vs. HBK. Fans decide the night's PPV matches.

  20. Backlash (2000)

  21. Royal Rumble (2000)

  22. Fully Loaded (2000)

    Severely underrated PPV! Besides Backlash and the Royal Rumble, I thought the third-best show of that year was this PPV.

  23. ECW One Night Stand (2006)

    The first One Night Stand is better, but this one wasn't that bad either.

  24. SummerSlam (1998)

  25. King of the Ring (1998)

    Best and most memorable Hell in a Cell match ever. Mankind vs. Taker, with the famous fall, stole the show.

    Kane vs. Austin was great, born from the First Blood stipulation. Plus, with Kane threatening to set himself on fire if he lost, he was bound to win.

    And the undercard was very underrated, especially the King of the Ring tournament.

    Had the most hardcore WWE match of all time with Undertaker vs. Mankind in Hell in a Cell.

  26. Judgment Day (2000)

  27. No Mercy (2001)
