WrestleMania IX

1. Tatanka defeated Shawn Michaels by countout

***Match Of The Night***

This was actually a real solid match. This was probably the peak of Tatanka's popularity and he was still undefeated at the time. I have no idea why they booked this match if they didn't want to do a clean finish, but at least this match was good, unlike the majority of this card.

Rating: 3 (out of 5)

2. The Steiner Brothers defeated The Headshrinkers by pinfall

This is the lone WrestleMania for the Steiners and this was another solid match. It was right around this time that the WWF Tag Team scene really started to stink.

Rating: 2.5

3. Doink defeated Crush by pinfall

I think I'm the only person who kind of enjoyed the heel Doink. Crush, on the other hand, not so much. This match is memorable for the fact that a second Doink helped Doink win the match.

Rating: .5

4. Razor Ramon defeated Bob Backlund by pinfall

This was kind of an odd match up and I have no idea why they only gave these two guys just 4 minutes. Ramon was one of the top heels and it seemed as if they were pushing Backlund as a top mid-card guy. It's little things like this that makes this show an odd one.

Rating: .5

5. Money Inc. defeated The Megamaniacs by disqualification

This match was pretty terrible and proof that Hogan was not nearly as popular as he once was. Sadly, this was just the beginning of Hogan's night.

Rating: .25

6. The Narcissist defeated Mr. Perfect by pinfall

Luger looked pretty sluggish and unfortunately not even Mr. Perfect could save this match.

Rating: 1.5

7. Undertaker defeated Giant Gonzales by disqualification

This is infamous for being horrible and I don't even know if horrible is a strong enough word. Luckily, Gonzales didn't last too much longer.

Rating: 0

8. Yokozuna defeated Bret Hart by pinfall to win the WWF Championship

Bret gave quite the performance here and I think that is sometimes forgotten thanks to the awful moment that came afterwords. Bret would get his revenge in a year.

Rating: 1.75

9. Hulk Hogan defeated Yokozuna by pinfall to win the WWF Championship

Hands down, the worst moment in WrestleMania history. Sure, there have been some bad ones here and there, but this one is the biggest ego trip of all time. Hogan, you suck.

Rating: 0

This show is bad for a lot of reasons, but most notably Hulk Hogan. He just couldn't stand playing second fiddle to Bret Hart. Vince gave in to Hogan at this point in time, but later learned his lesson. Beyond that, nothing is really memorable, with the exception of how bad the Undertaker/Gonzales match is.
