* [[The Centerpiece Spectacular]]: The main event Iron Man Match between [[Bret Hart]] and [[Shawn Michaels]] at ''WrestleMania 12'', where Shawn arrived in the ring on a zip line in an iconic WM moment.
** The match went into overtime when the match's time limit expired without a single fall being scored; Michaels eventually scored the winning pinfall to dethrone Bret as the WWF Champion.

* [[Professional Wrestling/Heartwarming|Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]]: The match between The [[Ultimate Warrior]] and Macho Man [[Randy Savage]] at ''WrestleMania 7'', where the loser would have to retire, was one of the best of either man's career. The stakes were huge, the match was amazing, and what happened after the match was one of the most heartwarming things in WWF history.
* [[Dangerous Terrain]]: The Tables, Ladders and Chairs (TLC) matches, which started with a Triangle Ladder match at WM 16 between [[Edge]] & [[Christian]] (winners), the Hardy Boyz, and the Dudley Boyz. WM 17 had "TLC II" with the same teams; each team got a little help from a third party ([[Lita]], Spike Dudley, and Rhino, respectively), and there were several memorable moments, including the insane ''mid-air Spear'' that [[Edge]] delivered to a dangling-from-the-belts Jeff Hardy.
* [[Dawn of an Era]]: ''WrestleManias'' 14 and 15 saw the true rise of the Austin Era (and the [[Attitude Era]] in general), as [[Stone Cold Steve Austin]] won the WWF Championship at both shows.

** ''WrestleMania 21'' saw the creation the Money in the Bank Ladder Match, whose winner is guaranteed a world title match before the next year's ''WrestleMania''. Every year since, people look forward to the match to see just who's going to get a world title push.
** [[End of an Age]]: The [[Holy Shit Quotient|Hell In A Cell]] match at [[Wrestlemania]] 28 between [[Triple H]] and [[The Undertaker]] was billed as "The End Of Era", building on the fact that they are the last, largest [[Insistent Terminology|superstars]] from the [[Attitude Era]] still [[Ring Oldies|actively competing]], and acknowledging the possibility that they may both retire soon; 'Taker due to [[Dented Iron|injuries and old age]] and Hunter due to his [[Reasonable Authority Figure|backstage responsibilities]].
