The first Rock/Stone Cold bout occurred at WrestleMania XV and saw Stone Cold defeat The Rock in an entertaining match-up to win his third World title.
One of the original plans called for the pair to main event WrestleMania 2000 with Rock as the face this time and Stone Cold as the heel. However, Austin's neck surgery meant those plans never came to fruition. The following year's WrestleMania finally played host to the super heated re-match, again for Rock's WWE Championship. Both men entered this match as faces; however, Austin left as the heel when he aligned with his long time nemesis, Vince McMahon to screw Rock out of the gold. The molten hot, Astrodome in Austin's home state of Texas didn't care though. On the night, Stone Cold's act of betrayal was widely cheered.
While the WrestleMania X-7 bout was the best of their trilogy in terms of action and both men being at the peak of their box office powers, their final match at WrestleMania XIX was a more than fitting conclusion to their epic feud.
In what was also Stone Cold's final ever match, The Rock finally defeated Austin, clean in a bout which was equal parts technical and flat out brawl. Three Rock Bottom's ended the career of the Rattlesnake and capped off one of the most entertaining wrestling trilogies of all time.
