Ranking Top 10 WWE Stars With Most WrestleMania Main Events
In the star-studded realm of WWE, only a select few reach the coveted pinnacle: headlining WrestleMania. These men and women stand tall as titans of the sport, etching their names onto the proverbial Mount Rushmore of Wrestling.
Every year, the stakes are at their highest at this marquee event, captivating unparalleled attention like no other. While the legendary matchup between Hogan and Rock undeniably captivated audiences and ignited box-office magic at WrestleMania X8, it was the Triple H vs. Jericho showdown that ultimately claimed the coveted final slot, cementing itself as the grand finale of the spectacle.
Let's check out the top 10 below;
1. Hulk Hogan: 8 Main Events
Hulk Hogan was the focal point of the first nine WrestleManias, except WrestleMania 4. He won against Paul Orndorff, Roddy Piper (teamed with Mr. T), King Kong Bundy, Andre The Giant, Randy Savage, Sgt. Slaughter, and Sid Justice.
His only loss was to The Ultimate Warrior in a Winner-Takes-All match. At WrestleMania 9, he had an impromptu match against Yokozuna, winning in under 30 seconds.
2. Roman Reigns: 7 Main Events
Roman Reigns has been in more WrestleMania main events than Stone Cold Steve Austin, John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and even his cousin, The Rock. Despite some backlash, Reigns has closed the show multiple times, with four main events in a row. His most recent win was at WrestleMania 39 where he defeated Cody Rhodes to retain the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.
This year too at WrestleMania XL, Roman Reigns will sit on the top of the list when he gets to defend Undisputed WWE Universal Championship against Cody Rhodes in the main event.
3. Triple H: 7 Main Events
Triple H, one of the most decorated Superstars, has worked seven WrestleMania main events. Despite losses, he holds significant wins over Chris Jericho and Randy Orton and successfully defended his WWE Championship at WrestleMania 16.
4. John Cena: 5 Main Events
John Cena, the face of WWE for a decade, worked five WrestleMania main events. He lost to The Miz at WrestleMania 27 and to The Rock at WrestleMania 28. Cena successfully defended the WWE Championship against Triple H and Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 22 and 23, and defeated The Rock for the gold at WrestleMania 29.
5. The Rock: 5 Main Events
The Rock's WrestleMania main-event record is 1 win and 4 losses over 5 matches, the same as Shawn Michaels'. His sole win was against John Cena at WrestleMania 28, while he lost the rematch at WrestleMania 29. Despite his overall legacy, his WrestleMania main-event record is not the most impressive.
The Rock is all set to complete at WrestleMania 40, so this will make him sit at number 4, replacing John Cena who has a tied 5 main events.
6. Shawn Michaels: 5 Main Events
Shawn Michaels, dubbed Mr. WrestleMania, has a poor win-loss record at the event with just 1 win in 5 appearances. His only win came against Bret Hart in a 60-minute Iron Man Match at WrestleMania 12. Despite losses to Steve Austin, Chris Benoit, John Cena, and The Undertaker, Michaels consistently delivered memorable performances at WrestleMania.
7. The Undertaker: 5 Main Events
The Undertaker, hailed as the greatest WrestleMania performer, had four main-event appearances. He won the WWE Championship against Sycho Sid at WrestleMania 13 and defeated Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 24. 'Taker also ended Shawn Michaels' career at WrestleMania 26 before suffering his first main-event loss to Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 33. His final match, a Boneyard match against AJ Styles at WrestleMania 36, marked the end of an illustrious career.
8. Brock Lesnar: 5 Main Events
Brock Lesnar, a top-tier talent, has been in five WrestleMania main events. He won against Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 19 and defeated Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 34 to retain the Universal Championship. He lost at WrestleMania 31 when Seth Rollins cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase.
Lesnar also lost to Drew McIntyre at WrestleMania 36. He's expected to compete in his fifth main event at WrestleMania 38 against Roman Reigns in a winner-takes-all match for the WWE Championship and Universal Title.
9. Stone Cold Steve Austin: 4 Main Events
'Stone Cold' Steve Austin had four main-event appearances at WrestleMania, winning each time. He defeated Shawn Michaels and The Rock for the WWE Championship at WrestleManias 14 and 15, respectively. At WrestleMania 17, he again beat The Rock for the title. Austin's perfect record in main events showcases his dominance during the Attitude Era, cut short by injury.
10. Bret Hart: 3 Main Events
Bret Hart had three WrestleMania main-event appearances. He lost the WWE Championship to Yokozuna at WrestleMania 9, won the title from Yokozuna at WrestleMania 10, and lost to Shawn Michaels in the iconic 60-minute Iron Man match at WrestleMania 12.
