From Ric Flair to Sid – quite the fall

This match should've been Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair for the WWE Championship and it really is that simple. They were and still are two of the biggest names in the history of professional wrestling, and it would've been a momentous occasion to see them standing across the ring from one another at WrestleMania.

Unfortunately, things didn't quite work out that way.

Because Hogan and Flair couldn't quite come to terms on their match, and instead we got a bout between Hogan and Sid. That on its own is a little bit odd, but it becomes even more ridiculous when you consider that the match ended in a disqualification.

For a pay-per-view that was stacked full of potential, this one really crumbled under the weight of the main event. We go straight ahead all the way to 2007 for this next entry.
