#7 Hulk Hogan vs The Ultimate Warrior for WWF World Heavyweight Title (Wrestlemania VI)

The Clash of the Titans.
The Clash of the Titans

The modern generation, in the past 10 years, has witnessed quite a few clashes of two big babyfaces. Be it Cena-Reigns at No Mercy 2017, Cena-Punk at Summerslam 2011 or Cena- Batista at Summerslam 2008 (quite a few Cena matches, eh?), the anticipation of such matches is always a few notches above than regular pay per view matches. The fact that the clash between Hogan and Warrior was the first time that two biggest babyfaces at the time clashes automatically took the buzz to a whole new level.

The stage was set for Wrestlemania VI. Hogan was the WWF Champion and Warrior was the IC Champion. The showdown, titled 'The Ultimate Challenge', was a Winner-take-all match. From the first bell to the finish bell, it was a face-off between two equals. The red-hot crowd reacted to every single maneuver - from shoulder blocks to clotheslines, to every kick and punch. This is what took the match between two average in-ring performers to the level of a certified classic. After almost 23 minutes, a new superstar was born that night, although for only one year, as Warrior did the unthinkable as he pinned Hogan down on the mat cleanly following the ultimate splash.
