WrestleMania VIII (1992 TV Special)
8/10
The Best Wrestlemania Of The 1990's
10 June 2006
This Wrestlemania saw the end of an era and beginning of a new one. The transition from the Hulkamania years to what I like to call the Gimmick years left of with one of the best Wrestlemania events in history. Now I would've given this a 10 out of 10, but there are a few matches that weren't up to par.

Now you see a lot of gimmick changes in this Wrestlemania. Tito Santana is now referred to as El Matador. You have characters like Repo Man and The Mountie. Aside from that, you are in for a great event. Shawn Michaels makes his singles debut against Tito Santana and it is a good one. Jake Roberts and the Undertaker square off in one of the better early Undertaker matches. The Roddy Piper vs. Bret Hart match is fantastic. Probably one of the best in Wrestlemania history. I could've done without the 8-Man Tag Match and Tatanka vs. Rick Martel. I thought the Tag Team Championship was good and the WWF Championship Match was excellent. Ric Flair's small run in the early 1990's in the WWF was outstanding. His match with Savage was also one of the best in Wrestlemania history. Hogan's match was typical Hogan, with a little twist because at the time, he was going to retire.

I'd say overall, this is the best Wrestlemania of the 1990's. The good matches outweigh the bad one's and all in all, you should be highly entertained.
