* Say what you will about the match, but Bret FINALLY giving Vince what he deserves after 12 long years is pretty awesome.

** It's hardly a crowning moment when the Rock was kicking the crap out Triple H for most of the match and it took Vince McMahon hitting the Rock with a chair twice for Triple H to actually win. The real crowning moment in that match comes when the Rock delivers a Rock Bottom to all of the McMahons and [[WouldHitAGirl finishes with Stephanie]] and finishing it all with a People's Elbow on her for screwing him out of the title.

* TheUndertaker makes his Wrestlemania debut by defeating WWF legend Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka in a fairly short match. It was the start of something big.

* While most of the event was very lackluster, one match stood head and shoulders above the rest: TripleH vs. TheUndertaker. Specifically, the moment where Triple H tombstoned Undertaker and then recoiled in sheer horror when Undertaker has to be seen to believed.

** The specific Crowning Moment of the match itself was when Undertaker dove over the ropes at Michaels... where Michaels shoved a cameraman in the way instead, resulting in a broken camera, a downed cameraman, and Undertaker practically killing himself with a head-first landing on the mat (and, from the initial camera angles, looking like he'd actually done so!). There were countless other great moments in the match, but that moment was when it became clear that this was shaping up to be an all-time classic. (This also counts as a DethroningMomentOfSuck for the "cameraman" - who was actually Sim Snuka; pretty much missing catching Taker, and the fact that he hadn't been used on TV for a while, resulted in his being let go from WWE.)

A dream match which will hopefully as exciting to the fans as Rock/Hogan was at WM18. In fact the announcement itself was so big that they've announced the main event an entire YEAR before the show!

* TheUndertaker also gained his second WWF championship against Sycho Sid, starting his first legitimate title reign, since his actual first one was very short lived. It was also nice to see him wrestle in his original attire for one more night, by this time he'd switched to his Lord of Darkness attire.

* The WWE Championship match. A month prior at No Way Out, EddieGuerrero won the WWE Championship against Brock Lesnar and would face Kurt Angle at Wrestlemania with Kurt often lambasting Eddie in the weeks prior for his former drug and alcohol addictions and felt he didn't deserve to be champ. The match itself was spectacular as the two performers really utilized their mat skills for a truly technical match. Towards the end, Eddie untied one of his boots towards the end of the match and then faked a limp. Angle, catching the limp, immediately went for his signature ankle lock. When he grabbed Eddie's boot, it came flying off and Eddie took advantage of the surprise by executing a roll-up on Kurt that won the match.

* CMPunk being the unlikely winner of the Money in the Bank match, in what must have surely pleased his legions of internet fans that had followed his career from the indy circuit all the way to the WWE. Considering he won over a returning ChrisJericho and a pair of up-and-coming heels in JohnMorrison and [=MVP=], it's pretty impressive.
