[StoneColdMikey]

Kinda crazy a lot of times the main event not even the best match on the card or even top 2

 

[Mister B.]

Savage vs. Hogan at VM5 should be Top 3.

Warrior vs. Hogan at WM6 should be Top 5.

[dalyricalbandit]

yea some might say co main event but the closer is the main event imo

 

[Already Home_17]

world title matches have opened wrestlemania twice

how does the main event open the show?

how does the main event open the show?

1 - Still world title matches

B - That was a rarity. They've mostly been on the second half of the show and sometimes stole the show from the WWE Championship.

 

[Peezy_Jenkins]

They tell Michael Cole dem to say it's "a main event" to cover up the blatant burial of the big gold belt, and it is A main event/marquee match. But THE main event whether we want it to be or not, goes on last

it can steal the show but if it's not the final match on the card, it's not the main event
