5 WrestleManias with the most matches

#1 WrestleMania 4

WrestleMania IV

Considering the fact that WrestleMania 4 through 7 all made their way on to this list says a lot about WWE's booking during that period. WWE crammed as many superstars as they could into these events to give the fans the best experience possible. This caused WrestleMania 4 to have 16 matches in total. The joint highest in history, unless WrestleMania 35 tomorrow crosses it with an impromptu match.

The bulk of matches were part of the WWF Championship tournament, which took place in its entirety on the main card. The other matches on the card included a Battle Royal won by Bad News Brown, a singles match between The Ultimate Warrior and Hercules, the Intercontinental Championship match between Brutus Beefcake and The Honky Tonk Man, a 6-man Tag match between The Islanders and Bobby Heenan against the British Bulldogs and Koko B. Ware, and Demolition vs Strike Force for the WWF Tag Titles.

The first round tournament matches included Jim Duggan vs Ted DiBiase, Don Muraco vs Dino Bravo, Ricky Steamboat vs Greg Valentine, Randy Savage vs Butch Reed, Bam Bam Bigelow vs One Man Gang, and a time limit draw between Jake Roberts and Rick Rude.

The Quarter Finals had Hulk Hogan face Andre The Giant in a Double Disqualification, Ted DiBiase beat Don Muraco, and Randy Savage defeat Greg Valentine, while One Man Gang got a bye. The two semifinal matches had Ted DiBiase getting a bye to the finals and Randy Savage beating One Man Gang. Savage and DiBiase faced off in the main event to crown the new WWF Champion.

Jake Roberts and Rick Rude's 15-minute draw was the longest match of the night, with the Tag Team title match being the only other one crossing 10 minutes. The average match time was barely above 7 minutes. Hopefully, this year isn't a repeat of this.
