Steve & Larson revisit WRESTLEMANIA X-SEVEN to answer the big question: is it actually the greatest WrestleMania of all time, as so many fans claim? Dave Meltzer called it the culmination of the wrestling boom — but does it hold up? We break down the Astrodome classic match by match, from the iconic TLC II to Vince vs. Shane, HHH vs. Undertaker, and the legendary Rock vs. Stone Cold main event with THAT heel turn. Full retro review, reactions, and analysis!
In this episode we cover: ✅ Is WrestleMania X-Seven REALLY the best Mania ever? ✅ The historical backdrop — WWE buys WCW, ECW's collapse & the end of the XFL ✅ Chris Jericho vs. William Regal — Intercontinental Title ✅ Right to Censor vs. Tazz & The APA ✅ Raven vs. Kane vs. Big Show — Hardcore Title (the golf cart chaos!) ✅ Eddie Guerrero vs. Test — European Title ✅ Kurt Angle vs. Chris Benoit — an all-time technical classic ✅ Chyna vs. Ivory — Women's Title ✅ Vince McMahon vs. Shane McMahon Street Fight (w/ Mick Foley as ref) ✅ TLC II: Hardys vs. Edge & Christian vs. Dudley Boyz ✅ The Gimmick Battle Royal (Gene & Heenan on commentary!) ✅ Triple H vs. The Undertaker ✅ Stone Cold vs. The Rock — WWF Title & the heel turn that changed everything
