#4 WrestleMania 33 (2017)

One of the greatest returns in recent history.

This was one of these modern-day five-hour-long WrestleManias, meaning it is pretty difficult to judge. 'Mania 33 was similar to its 2018 counterpart in a number of ways.

The undercard was great, a McMahon was part of the show-stealer, and the show dipped in quality towards the end. However, the final few matches here were much better than what happened at the end of WrestleMania 34.

AJ Styles and Shane McMahon had a surprisingly fantastic match to open the show, while the biggest pop of the night belonged to the returning Hardy Boyz. Matt and Jeff came home and won the RAW Tag Title ladder match.

Triple H put over Seth Rollins in an Unsanctioned Match that would have benefited from being 5 to 10 minutes shorter. The rest of WrestleMania 33 was hit and miss, epitomized by the two world title matches.

Bray Wyatt vs Randy Orton flopped, while Brock Lesnar's Universal Title victory over Goldberg set the Citrus Bowl on fire. However, the show was headlined by Roman Reigns, who defeated The Undertaker.

The Deadman put his hat, coat, and gloves in the middle of the ring after the main event, seemingly retiring and leaving the WWE Universe shocked.

Of course, we know that 'Taker returned, removing the emotion from that moment. Had this been his curtain call, WrestleMania 33 would have been looked back at much more fondly.
