#4 Psycho Sid (c) vs The Undertaker for the WWF Title (WrestleMania 13)

The match that ushered a new era in WWF.
The match that ushered a new era in WWF

Back in 1996, Sid was in the midst of a humongous push as he defeated Shawn Michaels for the WWF Title at Survivor Series, but no one expected him to stay the champion until WrestleMania.

When Michaels regained the championship from Sid at Royal Rumble, fans could see a rematch between Michaels and Bret Hart at WrestleMania for the WWF Championship. Hart had been embroiled in a heated rivalry with Steve Austin, who had slowly developed into WWF's top heel and, with the WWF Title vacant following Shawn Michaels' injury, it was the perfect time to put the title on Hart and have him defend him against Austin at Wrestlemania to finally put an end to their long feud.

Instead, Psycho Sid was chosen as the guy who would walk into Wrestlemania with the Title. Oh, what a waste of opportunity. Even the presence of someone like The Undertaker, who won the title from Sid, in the main event could not prevent the match from turning into a disaster.

Hart and Austin were part of the greatest match in WWE history that night. During the time when WWF was going through its roughest phase, they closed their premier show with a boring match instead of a match that is now regarded to have ushered the Attitude Era. Austin vs Hart should have closed Wrestlemania 13. Who knows, had they been in the main event, maybe they could have had more impact on the near future of the WWE.
