#4 WrestleMania X-Seven – The deal with the devil

The heel turn
The heel turn

Arguably the best WrestleMania ever. The roster was full of legends at the time and WWE put on a show to remember. Every single match stood out for different reasons and left the fans stunned.

The main event saw The Rock defending his title against Stone Cold Steve Austin in an epic match that would be remembered by the WWE fans forever.

Vince McMahon surprisngly made his way down to the ring during the match and sided with the Texas Rattlesnake. The WWE Chairman helped him win the title and the heel turn is all people talk about these days - not the match itself.

In the words of Paul Heyman, who was on commentary that day, Stone Cold sold his soul for the WWF Championship.

The moment when Vince handed Steve Austin the chair and helped him beat The Rock still makes people wonder if that actually happened or if they were just re-living their worst nightmare.

But then again, had Stone Cold delivered a stunner to the WWE Chairman after it was all over, the fans would have popped. Instead, he was seen shaking hands with 'the devil', leaving the fans scarred forever.
