April 1, 2007, a date that will live on in my memory forever. This was not only my first WrestleMania, but my very first WWE ppv. I was able to watch this with my huge family and it was so beautiful. We witnessed history, awesome matches, awesome star power, awesome theme song, brutality like none other, ridiculous/funny moments, and so much more. This was in a way, the ruthless aggression version of WrestleMania X-Seven which is not a bad thing, as it showed everything what ruthless aggression was all about. I’m sorry for the long comment, but when it comes to this WrestleMania, I have amazing memories of me and my cousins as younger kids/teens.
That Cena Entrance tho, “Is this Fast and Furious J.R?!” Little did they know how intertwined the Fast series and WWE would eventually become..... cough cough Rock cough cough Cena cough cough
@@alec2000 i fell outta love with wwe late 07 just didn’t feel the same they started toning down the product 24 is good but it was the start of the pg era. A mania without any blood?
Literally just watched this 2 weeks ago. Was a great ppv where 2 of the world championship matches delivered. And Undertaker in the best shape of his life right here
A reason I'm a big fan of your channel is not just that you're describing childhood nostalgic wrestling but somehow you actually make the vibe feel like I'm in the past. It's interesting.
One of my favorite Wrestlemanias and the build up was so good. Such a good time to be a fan, unfortunately a few months after this amazing event things went downhill...
Wrestlemania 23 will always have a special place in my heart. It was 9 year old me first Wrestlemania! Considering I’m from England, my brother and cousin stayed up till 4am watching it and I was just in awe. An event I’ve watched more than any wrestling event I can bet. It was just special and that Cena entrance is still top tier. Love you Detroit!🙌🏾♥️
This WrestleMania really was one of the all-time best. Literally my ONLY complaint about it is that Undertaker Vs. Batista shouldn't have happened so early in the PPV.
I figured this channel almost 1 year ago and since then I have watched almost every video. The video topics as well as Pav's commentary make the videos masterclass
I got suspended from school the Friday before wrestlemania 23 and all weekend my grandfather threatened to not let me watch wrestlemania on Sunday, but bless his heart he still let me experience it!
2007 may have been the best overall year ever 💀. Why did this unlock so many memories I forgot about. I’m so glad this was the PPV My parents ever bought for me.
This was my first wrestlemania I was able to finally watch and afford because I got Birthday money from my uncle and spent it all on watching this. The Undertaker is my favorite wrestler of all time so this was amazing. My childhood was at its peak when I watched this
Been to 4 or 5 live shows back in the late 2000’s but this was my favorite one I ever went to, seeing Jeff hardy break that ladder had 9 year old me hype af
The best wrestlemania I ever watched. The match cards, the pyros, the logo, the soundtracks, the crowd, the stadium, the entrances, everything was on point. The memory will never die.
To me wrestlmania 23 and 26 are great complements of each other, not to mention they are probably the two best wrestlemanias of the ruthless aggression era.
Edge loses at WrestleMania for the first time and he suffered a nasty legdrop from Jeff Hardy In the immortal words of Broken Matt "Brother Nero, indulge in your addiction!"
I live in Michigan, and my dad gave me a newspaper with WrestleMania 23 advertisement on it, and that's when I looked into watching a WWE show. It's because of this WrestleMania that I started watching Smackdown and WWE. Goated for sure. Also, 07 Cena, if I recall correctly, was undefeated at PPVs.
Let's take something into account: Both world championship matches were face vs face rivalries. They managed to pull two great storylines, and intertwine them in the buildup, without turning any of the performers heel, only betrayal like Batista leaving Taker and Michaels kicking Cena but none turned heel. Magnificent!
This is my earliest Wrestlemania memory as for a long time in my country PPVs were not televised on poor man's TV but only on DSTV which we couldn't afford. Also one of my favourite WMs
This wrestlemania will have a special place in my heart, it was my childhood, it was my first ever wrestlemania,it had one the greatest wm themes of all time next to "my way" , this is my wrestlemania 17 because it has moments that are still talked about to this day and it's also where a kid broke a $1000 glass vace at a friend's house where we were invited at for the wm23 watch party!
One of my favorite WM of all time. Top 3. 1. WM33 (Mainly bacause of The Hardyz just stealing the absolute Month & it being the best looking WM stage) 2. WM25 (Had the best Match of all time HBK vs Taker, That Xtreme Rules match between Matt & Jeff & The stage was amazing with the Huge star and big event feel) 3. WM23 (Again, Jeff Hardy just being Jeff Hardy and stealing the show with that Amazing Spot, Taker vs Batista was INSANE! & HBK vs Cena... the entrance, the reversals. It was all so freaking good!)
I remember this being my first ever WrestleMania I’ve watched since I got the 3 Disk DVD a year later on my birthday and man I remember watching that with my parents and loving it. This is one of my favorite WrestleManias to watch from time to time.
I was there at Wrestlemania 23 with my Dad The event was beyond Hype. I was sad because the event ended and my father had to take me back to my mother's to make sure I got ready for School the following day. I believe I was in 5th grade around Early 2007. Good times
when you realize you could switch undertaker and shawn michaels in each title match, it still would have made two potential classics/dream matches. at least in my opinion please don’t go off 🤣
What's funny is Taker fought Batista and Cena fought HBK at WM23 and then 3 years later, it would be Taker fighting HBK and Cena fighting Batista at WM26.
@@loganmcdonald568 i never realized that, but retrospective me thought this would have been the perfect mania for cena vs taker, and probably would have stolen the show, but the spinner belt wouldn’t have looked good on taker
I think WM23 is my Most Watched WM and Undertaker v Batista my Most Watched Match - hell, the First Thing i think about is the Dude in the Background with the pink Shirt😂
Great video! I remember getting tickets for Christmas, I was 12 years old. It was my first Wrestlemania ever and never less in Detroit my own home state. Ladies and Gentlemen being played pre show on repeat, the build up of the lights and pyrotechnics. The confetti being dropped at the end, the gnarly Ford Mustang promo built up leading to Cena’s entrance, Sabu literally walking down my aisle, being able to purchase Cena’s replica belt after the show (the displayed one at that) , witnessing a billionaire who would later become the President of the United States partaking in the shaving of the CEO of the WWE while Stone Cold is slamming beers…what a time to be alive as a kid and to be a fan of the WWE, I’d never forget that experience no matter how much it’s changed and evolved.
Lesnar didn't deserve to beat the streak even when Taker is old. Batista of 2005 better than any version of Lesnar. No one deserved to win Taker at WM...
