WrestleMania XXX was an eventful show. It calmed the fears of those afraid that it would crash the WWE Network and cause major damage to the company's latest venture. Cesaro broke away from his tag team and broke out by winning the Andre the Giant Memorial Trophy. Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, and the Rock hung out in the ring and had a blast. Mr. T and Roddy Piper buried the hatchet. Daniel Bryan went through an endless supply of punishment before being defeating Triple H, Randy Orton, and Batista.
That was a big moment and a major story, but the thing people will be talking about for a long time is the end of Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar. For the first time ever, Undertaker lost at...

The modern professional wrestling fan may take them for granted somewhat, but three way matches were once extremely innovative. There is a lot of debate around where the concept started in North American pro-wrestling, with some claiming Ecw popularised the match with the infamous Terry Funk v Shane Douglas v Sabu bout in 1994. Regardless of where it came from, in the 1990s it was still new and fresh.
Due to the fairly modern creation of the match, there wasn’t a single triple threat match (as it is known in WWE) at WrestleMania until WrestleMania Xv in 1999. If you can guess who was involved in the match before clicking through the answers, your WWE trivia is on point to say the least.
Since the very first one, there has been a total of 15 triple threats on the Grandest Stage of Them All. All except one has seen a championship on the line,...

Once regarded as a stepping stone to the WWE Championship or, at the very least, a consolation prize for top talent who were never going to get that World Title run, the Intercontinental Championship has always been a highly regarded belt. Not only in the WWE, but in all of professional wrestling.
From its fictitious origin involving a wrestling tournament to crown the first champion in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, which just goes to show how much they could get away with in wrestling back before the internet ruined kayfabe, to now, the Intercontinental Title has given us great matches and even greater champions.
5 Intercontinental Champions That Sucked… 5. Road Dogg
It should’ve been Billy Gunn. Think about it. The New Age Outlaws were so popular at the time that the WWE decided to give them each their own run at a singles title. The obvious choice for I-c Champ was Billy Gunn.

WWE 13 focuses on the Attitude Era, one of the most popular and exciting times in wrestling. Every week fans tuned in to Raw in record numbers to watch how Stone Cold would annoy Vince McMahon, to hear what The Rock might say and to see how Dx would cause controversy.
There were many wonderful moments throughout that time but it also brought about some of the best wrestling that had been seen. Some of the matches were technically brilliant, others had memorable moments and some ushered in new eras.
Today new information was revealed about WWE 13 that showed that the game covered from Summerslam ’97 to WrestleMania Xv, although it does exclude a couple of PPVs. 65 matches have been confirmed for the mode so, aside from those PPVs which have not been included, here are ten matches which everyone will be eager to play.

WWE 13 is one of the most highly anticipated games coming out this year; partly due to the introduction of an Attitude Era mode, which lets the player relive the memorable moments and biggest matches during that wonderful time. Thq have already confirmed that the mode features 65 matches over six chapters; beginning with the rise of D-Generation X and finishing with WrestleMania Xv, the event at which Stone Cold defeated The Rock for the WWF Championship.
Hopefully, that means the mode will cover the Undertaker/Michaels feud which brought us the first Hell in a Cell and the introduction of Kane, the Austin title win and subsequent Dude Love challenges, the battle between Kane, Steve Austin and The Undertaker for the title, the Survivor Series ’98 tournament, which saw The Rock win his first WWF Championship as the Corporation turned on Mankind and the road to WrestleMania Xv, which included Mick Foley’s first title victory.

WrestleMania! The grandest stage of them all. The platform for wrestlers to leave their mark on the profession they love. Unfortunately for some wrestlers though, WrestleMania has been a platform to leave the wrong kind of mark.
Here’s our list of 5 of the worst, most embarrassing moments in the history of WrestleMania.
5. The Undertaker ‘Hangs’ Big Bossman (WrestleMania Xv)
Growing up myself and my sister always had a rivalry as to who was better. She foolishly thought The Undertaker was the greatest of all time (even then) while I knew the greatest wrestler on the WWF roster was The Big Bossman. Sadly the two legends paths never seemed to cross so we never resolved our feud. That was until they met at Wrestlemania Xv when they fought it out in possibly the shortest Hell in a Cell match ever … maybe Undertaker’s worst ‘Mania match ever? So how do...
