Ranking Top 10 WWE Stars With Most WrestleMania Main Events

In the star-studded realm of WWE, only a select few reach the coveted pinnacle: headlining WrestleMania. These men and women stand tall as titans of the sport, etching their names onto the proverbial Mount Rushmore of Wrestling. ## Every year, the stakes are at their highest at this marquee event, captivating unparalleled attention like no other. While the legendary matchup between Hogan and Rock undeniably captivated audiences and ignited box-office magic at WrestleMania X8, it was the Triple H vs. Jericho showdown that ultimately claimed the coveted final slot, cementing itself as the grand finale of the spectacle. ## Let's check out the top 10 below; ## 1. Hulk Hogan: 8 Main Events ## Hulk Hogan was the focal point of the first nine WrestleManias, except WrestleMania 4. He won against Paul Orndorff, Roddy Piper (teamed with Mr. T), King Kong Bundy, Andre The Giant, Randy Savage, Sgt. Slaughter, and Sid Justice. ## His only loss was to The Ultimate Warrior in a Winner-Takes-All match. At WrestleMania 9, he had an impromptu match against Yokozuna, winning in under 30 seconds. ## 2. Roman Reigns: 7 Main Events ## Roman Reigns has been in more WrestleMania main events than Stone Cold Steve Austin, John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and even his cousin, The Rock. Despite some backlash, Reigns has closed the show multiple times, with four main events in a row. His most recent win was at WrestleMania 39 where he defeated Cody Rhodes to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. ## This year too at WrestleMania XL, Roman Reigns will sit on the top of the list when he gets to defend Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Cody Rhodes in the main event. ## 3. Triple H: 7 Main Events ## Triple H, one of the most decorated Superstars, has worked seven WrestleMania main events. Despite losses, he holds significant wins over Chris Jericho and Randy Orton and successfully defended his WWE Championship at WrestleMania 16. ## 4. John Cena: 5 Main Events ## John Cena, the face of WWE for a decade, worked five WrestleMania main events. He lost to The Miz at WrestleMania 27 and to The Rock at WrestleMania 28. Cena successfully defended the WWE Championship against Triple H and Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 22 and 23, and defeated The Rock for the gold at WrestleMania 29. ## 5. The Rock: 5 Main Events ## The Rock's WrestleMania main-event record is 1 win and 4 losses over 5 matches, the same as Shawn Michaels'. His sole win was against John Cena at WrestleMania 28, while he lost the rematch at WrestleMania 29. Despite his overall legacy, his WrestleMania main-event record is not the most impressive. ## The Rock is all set to complete at WrestleMania 40, so this will make him sit at number 4, replacing John Cena who has a tied 5 main events. ## 6. Shawn Michaels: 5 Main Events ## Shawn Michaels, dubbed Mr. WrestleMania, has a poor win-loss record at the event with just 1 win in 5 appearances. His only win came against Bret Hart in a 60-minute Iron Man Match at WrestleMania 12. Despite losses to Steve Austin, Chris Benoit, John Cena, and The Undertaker, Michaels consistently delivered memorable performances at WrestleMania. ## 7. The Undertaker: 5 Main Events ## The Undertaker, hailed as the greatest WrestleMania performer, had four main-event appearances. He won the WWE Championship against Sycho Sid at WrestleMania 13 and defeated Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 24. 'Taker also ended Shawn Michaels' career at WrestleMania 26 before suffering his first main-event loss to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33. His final match, a Boneyard match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36, marked the end of an illustrious career. ## 8. Brock Lesnar: 5 Main Events ## Brock Lesnar, a top-tier talent, has been in five WrestleMania main events.

Hulk Hogan Caught Lying About Brock Lesnar Match

Augusta, August 25, 2023 - Hulk Hogan isn't telling the truth. Brock Lesnar was in the UFC from 2008 to 2011, and he got the UFC Heavyweight Champion title while he was there. He came back to the WWE in 2012 to surprise John Cena after WrestleMania XXVIII.## Lesnar's opening fight after his time in the UFC was against John Cena at WWE Extreme Rules 2012. But as per Hulk Hogan, he's saying that Brock Lesnar had a match against Hulk Hogan. ## "I got him first when he came back from the UFC. I was kind of winding down, putting guys over and doing my thing and Vince goes, 'I want you to work with Brock.' I went, 'Okay.' I knew his buddy, Brad Rheingans, who was from Minnesota. He was the coach of the Olympic team several years back, and so when Brock was in high school, we had heard of him, we kept an eye on him. When he came back from UFC, they gave him to me first, and he was really intense, brother. He was really intense. So my whole thing is we always grabbed somebody and squeezed him to give him the office. 'You've got my head, you're about to break my neck,' you give him the office to lighten up. ## I squeezed the piss out of him and gave him the office. Finally, I just started calling him Broccoli. I told him, 'Broccoli', I got him to laugh a little bit. I said, 'Let me tell you something. If you keep hurting me in here, if you don't loosen up on the old man here, I'm gonna make you look really, really bad because you can be in here by yourself.' I used to tease him all the time because he's a really good friend, you know? When I got him first, he was really, really intense and now he's like, he's turned out to be one of the best workers this business has ever seen.## I mean, brother, he draws money. He backpedals. He sells. He's got instinct. He's got placement. He knows where he's at. He listens. You don't have to tell him what to do. You don't have to have a writer write the match out. He goes out and listens to the crowd with his mind and his heart. It's something that's a lost art form. He's got it, man. He figured it out," said Hogan on the Joe Rogan Experience. ## Transcription Via Fightful ## In 2014, during Hogan's birthday bash on WWE Raw, Lesnar showed up and told Hogan, "the party's done, old man." They had just one fight together in August 2002. ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

Hulk Hogan Hails Roman Reigns As The Savior Of Wrestling's Artistry, Applauds His Instinctive Brilliance

When Hulk Hogan, the most iconic figure in the history of professional wrestling, expresses immense admiration for your abilities, it signifies that you are undoubtedly excelling in your craft. During his recent media tour, Hogan showered Roman Reigns with praise, even going so far as to suggest that if they had faced off during their physical primes, they would have generated substantial revenue. ## In a recent interview with Forbes, Hogan acknowledged Reigns for his exceptional mastery of the intangible aspects of wrestling, highlighting his innate "feel" and "instinct" necessary for storytelling at a remarkably high level. ## "I've got a soft spot in my heart for Roman, but I think he's one of the only main event guys that's keeping the art form alive," Hogan said. "He can go out there and wing it. He doesn't need a writer to tell him what to say." ## "I can tell by the way he wrestles, he's not following some choreographed pattern," Hogan continued. "He is really good with placement and physicality and knowing where he is at all the time in the ring. And it's like when I wrestled, I never ever, ever talked about my match. I would see guys sit in the back room and talk for an hour about a five-minute match, and I'd go to Andre. I said, 'What are we doing tonight?' [Andre responded] 'Don't worry.' I said 'Okay.'" That's how I was raised. And I see that in Roman." ## Although Hogan confessed that his fondness for Reigns stems from his friendship with the Anoa'i family, he reminisced about a memorable incident from his days on the road when he found himself "indulging in wine and savoring barbecue" with nearly fifty Samoans. ## "...I woke up like at five o'clock in the morning sleeping in the front yard with a bunch of his Samoan brothers. During that time, they took a picture of me holding Roman Reigns, and he was like two or three years old." ## To stay updated with all the latest combat sports news, add Sacnilk.com to your Google News feeds and follow us on Twitter.
