Its shocking how rey never headlined the biggest event of the year. The guy's been a fan fav since the very beginning.....and also his in ring abilities would have been a spectacle.
Punk is definitely planned to remove himself from this list sooner rather than later. with his gripes about the Main Event being one of his main pain points in him leaving the big Dub in 2014, he definitely have a plan to address this in his contract. His promos against Rollins showed as much and the endgame is definitely a night 1 main event slot.
CM Punk should have main evented WrestleMania 29, Rhea Ripley should have main evented WrestleMania 39, Ric Flair should have main evented WrestleMania 8, Rey Mysterio should have main evented WrestleMania 22, and Eddie Guerrero should have main evented WrestleMania 20.
I agree on all but the Rhea one. The build to Rhea and Charlotte was pretty underwhelming, and the Tag Team title story was very deserving of the main event, it was the best story in the whole company not involving Roman. Rhea got the semi main event which is nothing to scoff at, and had arguably the best match at WM. She's still very young though, she'll definitely main event soon.
@@thegreenpianist7683 the tag titles match still evolved Roman Reigns even if he didn't interfere and Rhea Ripley vs Charlotte Flair actually deserved to main event WrestleMania from a statistical point unlike Bianca Belair vs Sasha Banks ay WrestleMania 37 which had a worst build up.
Even though Eddie Guerrero will never main event a Wrestlemania, at least we will always have No Way Out 2004 to cherish and remember that feel good moment!❤❤❤❤
I don't think Rhea should have been included still a bit early in her career, she really didn't become so over and evolved until after joining The Judgment Day. No denying that she'll soon be headlining multiple Wrestlemania's.
I just can't see WWE making Eddie Guerrero vs Shawn Micheals Main Eventing WM 22 over John Cena vs HHH. Maybe John Cena vs Eddie Guerrero Main Events WM 23 ???
A video of superstars that never main event a WWE pay per view would be interested!! Cause to be honest WM is once a year now twice is slim chance!! But a wrestler that never had the chance to main event any of the other shows is harsh!!
“ The fact that Dwayne is in the main event of WrestleMania next year and I’m not makes me sick “ - CM Punk 2011 Well that’s gonna change next year because on Night 1 of Wrestlemania 40 he’s facing Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship
As much as I want Bayley to finally get a main event match at Wrestlemania, it’s definitely not going to happen this upcoming show in 2024. Night 1 will probably be Rollins vs Punk and Night 2 will probably be Reigns vs Rhodes
I really wouldn’t say Rey was arguably the greatest luchador of all time, I would feel comfortable saying he is the best period. Every statement I made is my own opinion of course so don’t attack me in the comments if you don’t agree……
Glad you remembered Kevin Nash. Out of this entire list, I would say he has the biggest case that he should have main evented Wrestlemania 11. LT wasn't staying, so he didn't need it, and sadly the WWF did nothing with Bam Bam after the show, so he didn't need it. Wrestlemania 11 is partially remembered as one of the worst shows because of put a celebrity match above it's own top title. Nash vs Michaels could have been a really good match. Give it 10-15 more minutes, plus tell Shawn to stop trying to tire Nash out early on. We might have gotten a classic main event!
I think you should have did a whole of who should have closed the show of mania instead because of a lot of the people on the list it was not realistic. Rock vs hogan should have , Austin vs rock (19) should have, punk vs taker at 29, just a few examples
Imagine, somewhere, in another universe, Punk actually did main event Wrestlemania 28 in a triple threat that he won against Rock and Cena to become the new face of WWE 😢
*Dean Ambrose should’ve been on the list. I’ve been saying this for like the past almost 8 years and I will never stop saying this: Ambrose should’ve main evented WrestleMania 32. In early 2016, he was at the height of his popularity as the hottest babyface of the company. He was clearly way more than Roman was who is still being heavily pushed as the incredibly unpopular corny babyface. WWE really have the chance to strike when the iron was hot and he also had an incredible match with Triple H at Roadblock 2016 (which is an incredibly underrated match). If only they had that match be the main event of ‘Mania 32 the crowd would’ve gone home happy but as usual, WWE drop the ball by sticking with their precious golden boy Roman, which resulted with him and HHH POSSIBLY IN MY OPINION, THE WORST ‘MANIA MAIN EVENT EVER. SMH.*
@subtle-light So tell it for the folks in the back that's not sold on Mox gimmick. Ain't he just a cheaper version of Cactus Jack, bleeding yourself on every match does not make you more interesting of a character.
To be fair with Rhea she was hot during the road to wrestlemania last year sadly the Sami Zayn Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes saga vs the bloodline was the hottest angle at the moment
In some alternate universe, Bray Wyat was the one to break the Undertaker's streak. Probably the same universe where everyone on this list, before and after, headlined Wrestlemania.
I thought Rey main evented Wrestlemania 22, since he won the Royal Rumble that year, but no. Rather, Vince McMahon of all people decided to make John Cena vs Triple H the main event of Wrestlemania 22
Ric Flair didn’t main event ‘Mania because his peak years weren’t in WWE. Other than that year and half in the early 90s he was in WWE, he was already considered a senior wrestler by the time he made WWE home.
@@ahmadceasar5484that mat h didnt draw in house shows so vince got cold feet apparently..i dont trust those rumors .vince jist didnt want the match...
It's great to see that CM punk is going to main event night 1 vs Seth rollins, As it should. The build up leading up to WrestleMania is going to be incredible.
I completely disagree about Punk main eventing over Rock & Cena, specifically in 2012. Rock vs Cena was the biggest match to book at that time. You put Jericho vs Punk on last at Mania 28, the crowd would end up dead, just like with Mania 18 with Jericho & Triple H. Rock was the one drawing the buy rates when it came to Wrestlemania 27, 28 & 29. Not Punk.
CM punk is now getting the chance to main event mania aganist seth rollins, The fued and starpower alone is enough to make this the main event of night 1.
Rhea vs Flair should've been the MainEvent @ WM39. SamiKo vs usos was meh with 20+ super kicks. being there live the roar of the crowd spoke for itself
If flair savage doesn't count as a main event there's not a single night 1 wrestlemania main even that was a main event..... In the same way Eddie and Chris both becoming champions and having their moments together was literally the main even of wrestlemania 20
Bayley should go against Io Skye, and win via disqualification when the rest of the girls swarm on her. At the last moment of the night, have Sasha Banks swoop in and rescue her.
Am I the only one that feels like night one main event doesn't really count. I mean it does in a way don't get me wrong... but it's not really the last match ya know. Let's say punk finishes off night one... If I was him I would still feel some what shorted in a way
Sasha banks is coming back to wwe. Aew has scrapped any plans of bringing her in. N wwe has started making storylines for sasha as of last night. So royal rumble next month i predict is when sasha returns
Wwe’s supporting him so much they’re using him to drive home their new tv rights deal. AEW has jungle boy and, irrelevant bucks, and the talentless cowboy and might have an uphill battle for tv.
The fact they barely gave Bray wyatt a tittle chance is beyond unfair one of the good things that came out during the pandemic would've been cool to see him and cm punk go at it on Monday night raw a few times 😊😊❤

@zanethind
I know this may never happen.
But imagine Rey vs Dom at WM.
😂
@@austintgod9621idk if you’re joking or not, but that happened this year at Wrestlemania
It's not a surprise, Vince never rated little guys and cruiserweights.

The next list should be undeserved or unearned main events
^^
Good idea
Maybe unlikely to not being so negative
Hogan & Roman(pre-2020) top that list for sure
Miz, reigns having 50 of them, Hogan, sid,
CM Punk should have main evented WrestleMania 29, Rhea Ripley should have main evented WrestleMania 39, Ric Flair should have main evented WrestleMania 8, Rey Mysterio should have main evented WrestleMania 22, and Eddie Guerrero should have main evented WrestleMania 20.
Yeah that whole Eddie storyline was in very bad taste. He could have held the heavyweight title longer and done the giant killer gimmick
I agree on all but the Rhea one. The build to Rhea and Charlotte was pretty underwhelming, and the Tag Team title story was very deserving of the main event, it was the best story in the whole company not involving Roman.

No that’s goes to me. I will win the royal rumble and I will headline wrestle mania
@@RomaroBrandon what do you mean from a statistical stand point?
If Punk was correct in what he said, then LA Knight should be headlining Wrestle Mania 2024. LA is super super over right now.👊
His move set sucks though
Cody & Punk are more over now
@@rashidbinzamanshaan5841I wouldn't say more over but they're all getting the best reactions
Ah no
No. I’m headlining wrestle mania pal. Vince McMahon already said I can headline.
Even though Eddie Guerrero will never main event a Wrestlemania, at least we will always have No Way Out 2004 to cherish and remember that feel good moment!❤❤❤❤
And him walking out to stand with Chris

Lol Otis main evented and won MITB at the 2020 ppv😂
Punk: if I don't main event wrestlemania next year there will be a repeat of brawl in and brawl out in wwe
True tho😂😂😂
CM Punk is about to bring the Brawl for All tournaments back.
BrawlMania
Next year
I'm a CM Punk fan...but I HIGHLY doubt Punk gonna start any static in THAT locker room as far as shooting! 😂😂
It's crazy that ric flair being arguably the greatest pro wrestler of all time never main evented WrestleMania
Well to be fair he wasn't in a lot of them
Flair was more of a WCW/NWA guy.
Night One’s main event is NOT the main event of wrestlemania. It’s the match before intermission.
Yeah, Night One is like ending a movie with a Pause
Is like the Dark Knight Returns Part 1 where it sets up Part 2 which is the True Clímax
@@lewisaino exactly!
thats true but people arent ready to accept that.....wwe knows its not the real headliner..its why roman always headline night2
yeah its ridiculous how they try to spin it that way. why hasnt roman ended night 1?
“ The fact that Dwayne is in the main event of WrestleMania next year and I’m not makes me sick “ - CM Punk 2011

HHH: Best I can do is night 4.
@@DaFro3713lol
He had a point
night 1 is not punks style ..he probably wants night2
Night 1 isn't the main event though. The main event is the match that closes out the show. Which is night 2.
Taker vs cm punk was a main event match
And Rock vs Cena 2 opened the show!
As much as I want Bayley to finally get a main event match at Wrestlemania, it’s definitely not going to happen this upcoming show in 2024. Night 1 will probably be Rollins vs Punk and Night 2 will probably be Reigns vs Rhodes
CM Punk definitely shudda Main Evented WM 29 either against Stone Cold or in a Triple Threat Match with John Cena & The Rock
Honorable mentions: Booker T, Dean Ambrose, Asuka, Mr. Perfect, Jeff Hardy, Bobby Lashley, Sheamus
Bobby Lashley vs Drew McIntyre should have Main Evented WrestleMania 37 Night 1
We need part two there are many faces who could be in the headline of mania
I really wouldn’t say Rey was arguably the greatest luchador of all time, I would feel comfortable saying he is the best period. Every statement I made is my own opinion of course so don’t attack me in the comments if you don’t agree……
Punk didn't Main Event but when he holds the mic... Wooo. Now that's a main event.
Dont know why Rhea is on this list but whatever ^^
She is young and have plenty of Times to main event WrestleMania
Glad you remembered Kevin Nash. Out of this entire list, I would say he has the biggest case that he should have main evented Wrestlemania 11.
LT wasn't staying, so he didn't need it, and sadly the WWF did nothing with Bam Bam after the show, so he didn't need it.

Nobody show Flair this video. We don't want him getting any ideas.
I Loved Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig Alongside Randy Savage Bret Hart Roddy Piper and Ricky Steamboat he's clearly one of my favorite WWE Legends RIP BTW
I think you should have did a whole of who should have closed the show of mania instead because of a lot of the people on the list it was not realistic. Rock vs hogan should have , Austin vs rock (19) should have, punk vs taker at 29, just a few examples
Bray could've...sadly he'll never get a chance now. Rest easy my brother.
Imagine, somewhere, in another universe, Punk actually did main event Wrestlemania 28 in a triple threat that he won against Rock and Cena to become the new face of WWE 😢
HHH was never going to be the face of the company. The Rock and Cena have a kind of charisma that HHH never had.

I agree
Roman hasn't been pushed as a Babyface in years but I get you
Nah, he's character sucks then and it sucks now.
It is hard to appreciate Moxley's character... if you are a twerp. XD
@subtle-light So tell it for the folks in the back that's not sold on Mox gimmick. Ain't he just a cheaper version of Cactus Jack, bleeding yourself on every match does not make you more interesting of a character.
AJ Styles, Nakamura & Asuka all deserve to main event Mania.
AJ Styles Main Evented Night 1 of WrestleMania 36
To be fair with Rhea she was hot during the road to wrestlemania last year sadly the Sami Zayn Kevin Owens and Cody Rhodes saga vs the bloodline was the hottest angle at the moment
Rhea and Bayley will definitely main event at least night 1. Rhea is still young and Bayley also have a lot years left.
No they won’t lol punk and Rollins are taking that spot
I agree about Bayley she's my favorite WWE women's wrestler today
In some alternate universe, Bray Wyat was the one to break the Undertaker's streak. Probably the same universe where everyone on this list, before and after, headlined Wrestlemania.
Surprised rey or Eddie never where the main event on mania...
Love the channel Andy..n Joe the narrator..💙💙👍

Ric flair is wcw 🤧
Ric Flair didn’t main event ‘Mania because his peak years weren’t in WWE. Other than that year and half in the early 90s he was in WWE, he was already considered a senior wrestler by the time he made WWE home.
Ric flair didn't main event mania because Vince didn't do Ric vs Hogan which is crazy in hindsight

@@GilDice source? trust me bro or a legit one?
The main event of night one is seth rollins defend his word heavyweight championship against the winner of the royal rumble cm punk
It's a darn shame Eddie Guerrero didn't main event WM 20. He should have won a Royal Rumble as well.
if eddie got the benoit push (rumble,headliner at mania,title win in headline)...then wwe wouldnt treat 2004 like it never happened
Rey Mysterio WM 22 should of been the main event
Cena vs HHH was much bigger
To be fair Rick flair and shawn Michaels were offered the main event spot for WM 24 but declined it
Love your videos! I rarely comment, but I've watched nearly every one.
RIP Bray Wyatt And Eddie Guerrero
Finally Charlotte Flair isn't the main focus of the women's division of wwe but Becky Lynch is almost os over rated as the queen
I will never understand why Flair/Savage didn't go after Hogan/Sid at WM-8. That was Ric's best chance right there.
"Hogan must pose"
I Was Shocked To Hear That Rey Mysterio
Has Never Main Event WrestleMania
The Same With Ric Flair
I mean, Rey is a cruiserweight.
Of course he doesn't main event WM.
It's already a miracle the he has been world champion.
It's great to see that CM punk is going to main event night 1 vs Seth rollins, As it should. The build up leading up to WrestleMania is going to be incredible.
lol night 2 is the main event buddy...night 1 is just second best
CM Punk and Seth Rollins will main event one night of wrestlemania
Saying bayley should main even WM40 while u just said punk should & u know that Roman will main event is dumb too
Hogan vs. Flair was a missed opportunity as it would have pitted the WWF Champion against the WCW Champion.
IMHO: Kevin Nash, Glenn Jacobs, and Rey Mysterio were handed the shortest straw when it came down to Wrestlemania.
if sami zayn ko and the usos are claiming they main evented then ill also say Rey Mysterio has.
