More on my top five:

There was only one choice for the top spot. Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin happened 20 years ago this month. It’s flawless with a legendary ending. One of the best matches of all time, it may well be THE best.

Pure wrestling in the Owen Hart vs. Bret Hart match from WrestleMania X. I’ve always preferred this to Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania X and that’s not a dig at the Ladder match.

In Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XXV, I think to ‘Taker diving headfirst into the floor from his over the top rope dive and the terrific final stretch. In the WrestleMania XXVI rematch, Undertaker injures his leg early, his great sell job and another memorable final stretch leading to Michaels’ retirement.

I'm surprised you have X7 main at 13. To me, it was one of the few times it felt epic with the setting and actually delivered. And while the ending wasnt as clean as I would've liked, it made sense in the story they were telling to me.

Honestly when I was comrprising the list, I thought the Austin vs. Rock WrestleMania X-Seven placement was off. It may be for the reason you gave.

Warrior/Savage has unparalleled drama in the match. Dude kicks out of 5 top rope elbows. Great conclusion of a five year story arc for Savage afterwards. It's so far and away better than anything else Warrior did - probably the greatest example of a miracle match.
