There have been moments that have been created that would be considered a WrestleMania moment.  In regards to the thought in general.  Of course, the thought has to come into perspective but there are historic moments that would make people think of the big moment in history of the WWE.  To name them all would be extremely difficult but to name a few that would truly stand out in terms of creating moments that never forget.

One of which would have to be the biggest moment of them with Hulk Hogan slamming Andre the Giant.  It takes some true strength to do so no matter what anyone says.  At WrestleMania 3, it was perhaps the biggest showdown and it was a passing of the torch from Andre to Hulk.  He decided to do something that would get people talking for a long time and they still do.  In fact, whenever the countdown to WrestleMania to happens, that would involve this being mentioned consistently.

WrestleMania 6 had a huge moment in itself with the match between Hulk Hogan and The Ultimate Warrior.  The big moment was that the Warrior would go on to win the championship.  Even more significant was the fact that Hulk Hogan got beat clean in the middle of the ring.  Nobody at that point had been able to do so.  It could have been a sign that would have seen the Warrior be the man but it wasn’t meant to be.

WrestleMania 20 would have to be among that list.  Despite what Benoit did, he had his moment and it was greater when Eddie Guerrero was there.  Both men were WWE and World Heavyweight Champions combined and celebrated in perhaps one of the most touching moments for both men.  They had struggled and scratched and clawed to get to the top and they did it.  For anyone, that would be amazing.  Unfortunately, it is not going to be seen at all due to the Benoit double murder suicide.

Honorable mentions would have to be WrestleMania 12 for Shawn Michaels as he would win the Iron Man match.  It would be almost a changing of the guard from Hart to Michaels but it was a great match.  It had an even greater moment with the two but more about Shawn celebrating.  At WrestleMania 14, it was the night of Austin 3:16 becoming the face of the WWE.  Of course, it was known as the WWF but still Austin became the man as it would be a symbol of passing the torch.

As all ready established, to list every moment would be nearly impossible.  All that can be said is simply there were a lot of great moments that happened.  Others could have different opinions but the fact is that it was significant in the sense of things that could people talking or be shown as a highlight.
