PW Boards Worst Wrestlemania Tournament... EVER!

Angron

Another one where I reckon the one that goes on won't progress too much further. I'm voting for 21 for one reason: 30 had one of the single greatest moments in wrestling as far as I'm concerned, Daniel Bryan raising the belts after beating Batista and Randy Orton in the main event.

Bounty Hunter

21 but mostly becauseI rate 30 very highly I'd say 21 will be eliminated by something worse next round

Necro

21. Not only for DB's awesome moment, but the end of the streak at 30 too. Two classic WM moments. 21 was good too, but not in 30's league

ERG89

Definitely 30.
21 had a legit WM classic in Angle vs Hbk, great debut of MITB, Orton vs Taker, Mysterio vs Guerrero & a superbly built main event. Looking back now in hindsight it's probably the last night WWE created a huge star in John Cena & to a lesser extent Batista.

gerrybbadd

21 for me too. 30 was a really special night, something that isn't achieved very often these days

Chain Smoker

30 but only barely, as jaw dropping as the streak ending was, the build to the match was terrible, the match was terrible and the shock of the streak ending kind of killed the atmosphere of the rest of the show.

I imagine it was probably the best mania weekend to be at by a long shot though.

Omackeral

A pretty one sided affair there it must be said. Two 20 somethings do battle now...

29. Once in a lifetime my arse...

gerrybbadd

Both had some great matches. Gonna pick 29 too I think.

Its amazing to see how small the attendance for 22 was!

Omackeral

I'm picking 29 also by virtue of the fact 22 was one of my favourite Manias and had a great Vince vs HBK street fight not to mention Edge vs Foley.

Omackeral

Two powerhouse supercards prepare to do battle next...

Wrestlemania XX for me. Really only 2 or 3 good matches on this show.

johnnyryan89

WM31

Both only had two or three good matches but 20 had probably the best wrestlemania moment with Benoit and Eddie.

WrestleMania XXXI

Necro

20 for me.

the groutch

has to be 31, largely forgettable, 20 had two great world title matches.

Angron

31. I respect it for managing to pull off one of the great moments in the unexpected Seth cash in, but overall it was the worse show. Not a bad show, just not really as good as 20.

Omackeral

31 rolls on through to the next stage. Next up is New Generation vs Hulkamania

Wrestlemania 6. A pretty poor show, and as a match I just prefer the main event of 12 to the one for 6.

Pretty much the same for me. WM 6.

sky88

Mania 6 for me just a poor show to me

Omackeral

The Ultimate Challenge will go on to challenge for the title of ultimate sucky Mania. Two stinkers up next...

27. A pretty rubbish main event that existed just for the purpose of setting up a match for the next year's PPV, a terrible idea. There was decent matches at the PPV, but that main event was brutal.

Kankan14

Original mania gets my vote.

Tag match main event. No thanks.
Mr.T in main event. No thanks.

I'll take 27 over it all day. Least it had taker

Blue_Dabadee

I will go with WM 27 because at least WM 1 had historic significance.

Itssoeasy

27 for the fact that without the first one being a success we wouldn't have had 31 others.

Ageyev

WM 27 > WM 1.

The former had a great Taker v Triple H match, Eagle's last match and Orton v Punk was decent. By the standards of the time the first Wrestlemania wasn't a particularly good wrestling show or even all that notable outside of the celebrity involvement and promotion.

Stereomaniac

I'm voting for WrestleMania I here. It pains me to do that because it really was the great grandaddy of them all. But if like me you don't mind The Miz, WrestleMania XXVII is actually a bit of a novelty and can sometimes be looked back on as worse than it actually was.

sky88

Wrestlemania 27 was just terrible terrible show

Omackeral

This is the last match of the round and is just a formality more than anything. If the tournament was to find the best Mania, these two could make a great final. With that said...
