#2 The Rock vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin (WrestleMania 15)

Round 1.
Round 1.

Their first encounter on the big stage was naturally overshadowed by their subsequent two. After all, the second match defined an era, and the third was Austin's last round in the ring. Nevertheless, this was a fine main event from an otherwise disappointing WrestleMania.

The Rock was rapidly rising in popularity, and it looked like he had turned to the good side as 1998 was drawing to a close, but it wasn't to be, as he became the corporate champion. Stone Cold Steve Austin, still embroiled in his feud with Vince McMahon, wanted his title back, and the three came together to create some magic in the angle as the grandest stage drew closer.

Despite shenanigans, Stone Cold beat The Rock in their first round and at last regained the title. Let us also not forget that the build to this match included the beer truck, which was ranked last year as the greatest segment in the history of Raw.
