We have made it to WrestleMania X-Seven. Cindy and Ryan look at one of the most highly-regarded WrestleMania’s ever, WrestleMania X-Seven from the Astrodome in Houston. Taking place just a week after the sale of WCW, the pinnacle of the Attitude Era, does this show stand the test of time? We’ll discuss this and so much more!

  • Quick run down of the sale of WCW and how Vince McMahon reigns supreme.
  • The Chris Jericho/William Regal feud centering on Jericho besmirching Regal’s tea. 
  • Some of the lower matches on the card stalling a bit, but at least being quick energetic matches.
  • The goofiness of the Hardcore title match, including golf carts. 
  • Test’s foot getting stuck in the rope.
  • Chris Benoit and Kurt Angle having a well put together if not hastily built match.
  • The show going on quite the hot streak of 5 matches to end it.
  • The culmination (at least for 2 hours) of all of Mr. McMahon’s asshole-ness.
  • TLC II being an instant classic with everyone involved going all out, including each team’s second.
  • WWF embracing nostalgia and having the Gimmick Battle Royal, including the return of Mean Gene and Bobby Heenan.
  • Undertaker and Triple H having a great match, that would have been even better without showing a crucial replay. 
  • Steve Austin and the Rock having another instant classic with one of the best Attitude Era main event style matches, ending with the shocking Austin heel turn, although the crowd isn’t reacting that way.
  • We look at the next two weeks of Raw where it is full steam ahead with the Austin heel turn, featuring a further beat down of the Rock, allying with Triple H and then attacking the Hardy Boyz and Lita. 

    • Enjoy the show!
