I don't like neither teams.Anyways this match sucks.6/10

9.WWF CHampionship.Yokozuna vs Bret "the hitman Hart.
I think Piper did a Great job referee this match,even though is not good as the Luger vs Yokozuna match.8/10

Wrestlemania X was pretty much average at best believe it or not. Not a lot of the matches were delivering. The Harts and the Ladder match were indeed classics but the other matches wasn't really all that whatsoever.

1. Bret "Hit-man" Hart vs. Owen Hart
Now if you want a perfect demostration on what a 5 star match is really like, then this match shows you. You couldn't ask for anything more from this one. The Hart brothers are defiantly talented and they show you what true wrestling is here. Owen was a heel during this time so you expected some dirty tactics from him. Bret was awesome as always. A lot of mat wrestling and some good counters and reversals. Perfect match. Match of the night. 5/5*****

2. Doink & Dink vs. Bam Bam Bigelow & Luna
This match was totally for the entertainment value alone. Bam Bam and Doink tryed to make it a match. Not very amusing to me. 2/5

3. Falls Count Anywhere Match
"Macho Man" Randy Savage vs. Crush w/ Mr. Fugi
Now the rules of this match aint the standard rules of your regular falls count anywhere match now days. You would have to score a pin fall first anywhere out of the ring and then the opponent would have 60 seconds to get back to the ring before he would be declared the loser. Both men took a little bit of punishment but I think it would have been better just as a regular one on one match. Fugi interferes of course. Something was just missing for me. I don't know what it was but this match just didn't do it for me. A little disappointed in this one. 2.5/5

4. WWE Women's Title
Alundra Blaze vs. Leilani Kai
This women's match also didn't do it for me either. It had a few nice moves and a counter here and there but not anything worth mentioning. 2/5

5. WWE Tag Team Titles
The Quebecers w/ Johnny Polo vs. Man on a Mission
This match was fairly decent at best. Mabel pulled off a nice splash on the floor to one of the quebecers. The quebecers also pulled of an impressive double suplex on mabel. The fact is though, you just couldn't really ask for anything more from 2 guys weighing over 400 lbs. and a B tag team. The dq was a saving grace though. 3/5

6. WWE Championship w/ Mr. Perfect as the Special Referee
Yokozuna w/ Mr. Fugi & Jim Cornette vs. Lex Luger
I don't really have anything worth noting on this one either. It wasn't bad but it certainly wasn't great. It did have a pretty cheap ending with Perfect dqing Luger. Decent match but could have been better. 2.5/5

7. Adam Bomb w/ Harvey Whippleman vs. Earthquake
Now I don't know if this match was on the card or not but it was defiantly a 5 minute segment waste of time. Pourly way to set up for the ladder match. 0/5

8. Ladder Match for the Undisputed Intercontinental Title
Shawn Michaels w/ Diesel vs. Razor Ramon
This is the second classic match on this card worth seeing. These two had a pretty good match before the ladder got introduced. Diesel would soon get ejected after clotheslining Razor. Both men without a doubt took some hard bumps. Michaels utilized some interesting moves with the ladder. Razor got a couple of good shots in too. They brawled a few times while on the ladder. Great match if you haven't seen it already. 4.5/5

9. WWE Championship w/ Roddy Piper as the Special Referee
Yokozuna w/ Jim Cornette & Mr. Fugi vs. Bret Hart
I do have to say I felt this was much better than their match from Wrestlemania 9. Yoko really dominates the majority of the match. Hart was able to pull off some counters here and there but he also took some hard shots as well from Yoko. It seemed that the Hitman was still feeling the effects from his first match with Owen. Piper kept it interesting too. Hart was also to pull off some moves once he got the advantage. The ending felt a kind of cheap when Yoko "lost" his balance from the second rope. Hart defiantly deserved this one. 3/5

Wrestlemania X is worth a rental at the most only to see the Harts match and the ladder match with the rest of the card aint giving much. Don't invest too much in this one. I would rather and get the anthology set instead of buying this alone if I was yall.

It was 1994 WWF one could imagine how bad the time period was. Lex Luger was getting a heavy push by the WWF in hopes that he could replace the recently fired Hulk Hogan. The federation seemed to had lost it's heat since 1992 by now the Undertaker was thrown into pointless feuds with IRS, Ted Dibiase and Adam Bomb. Only 4 men supported the Federation by that time those were BRET HART, OWEN HART, SHAWN MICHAELS AND RAZOR RAMON.

Despite the terrible time period for the WWF at the time Wrestlemania 10 proved to be the best since Wrestlemania 6. It was funny too because the card did not look to promising but it turned out to be great.

The best matches were Bret Hart v.s. Owen Hart in a classic technical bro v.s. bro match,Shawn Michaels v.s. Razor Ramon in a great ladder match,and Crush v.s. Randy Savage in a classic falls count anywhere match.

Some was garbage like the mixed tag but it was all short so the good stuff lasted I also believe the end of the event was a shining moment in WWF history. So in a way Wrestlemania 10 supported the WWF until the company blew their reign of popularity at Survivor Series 1994 but this is by far one of the best WrestleManias so get it!

1. Owen Hart vs. Bret Hart-- This match was the best opening match in wrestlemania history.. Excellent plotted match from start to finisher.. By the way Owen played the heel role well in this match and based on my 5 point scale for all my reviews.. You guessed it.. It gets a 5.. And on side note.. I am GLAD Owen was able to beat Bret and step out of his shadow.. GO OWEN!

2. Bam Bam Bigelow and Luna vs. Doink The Clown and Dink The Clown-- Match wise it wasnt much of anything.. But Dink is funny as hell.. LMAO.. He made Bam Bam and Luna look so stupid.. LMAO.. I give this match a 2.

3. Macho Man vs. Crush Falls Count Anywhere-- I must note that the match was totally messed up based on that 1 minute outside rule.. I will not put why here but all you wrestling professors know why.. I dont want to detract from the match so I will end this pretty good match with a 2 1/4 stars

4. Leilani Kai vs. Alundra Blayze Womens Title-- I liked this match.. I dont know why but I did.. Alundra is a very athletic womens champ for this era.. I give this match 2 stars.

5. MOM vs. Jacques and Pierre Rougeau- I actually liked this match as well.. MOM looked good in this match to be honest I think.. I give it 2 stars as well

6. Yokozuna vs. Lex Luger WWF Title- I didnt like this match at all.. On side note I heard something about Luger supposed to win but gave the results to some media guy while drunk so WWE gave it to Zuna.. The rumor was Luger would win to lose it to Bret who he did the tie thing with at Rumble.. So overall with the Perfect junk.. I give this match 1 1/8 stars.. Not saying much about this long dreading match..

7. Adam Bomb vs. Earthquake-- I dont care squash or not. But could some other talent be put here..? - 0 stars.. And yes I know its no such score but 0 is too good for this..

8. Shawn Michaels vs. Razor Ramon Ladder Match-- This match was excellent.. Everyone knows this but I didnt like the finish.. I just didnt.. It took too long for Razor to get up and Shawn got out too early so he hooked his hand up.. Besides that I do not want to detract from the grading.. It still gets 5 stars because what I just mentioned is not noticeable unless you look for it..

9. Yokozuna vs. Bret Hart- Me too, like everyone was surprised.. But GLAD.. Bret won.. I liked this match.. 3 stars.. I loved with the WWE locker room filled for Bret in congrats.. And I must note here.. When Macho Man filled the ring after Brets win.. It was his last time entering a WWE Wrestlemania ring.. So this is a VERY historic WM.. One of my top 5.. I also liked how Owen came out at end to play the heel..

OVERALL- I recommend this WM to everyone that likes wrestling and WRESTLEMANIA! MUST HAVE Wrestlemania for all viewers!!

WHY DO PEOPLE LIKE THIS WRESTLEMANIA? THINK ABOUT IT. NO HOGAN, NO UNDERTAKER, THE MACHO MAN WAS PUT IN A STUPID MATCH AGAINST CRUSH, NO ULTIMATE WARRIOR, DIESEL [KEVIN NASH] DIDN'T WRESTLE, A 10 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH GOT CANCELLED, AND MUCH OF THE EVENT WAS JUST BORING. HERE'S MY THOUGHTS ON THIS PPV'S CARD;

1. BRET HART VS. OWEN HART [R.I.P.]
THE BEST OPENING MATCH I'VE EVER SEEN. AND SUPRISINGLY, NONE OF THE OTHER MATCHES ON THIS EVENT EVER TOP THIS ONE. THIS EVEN TOPS THE CLASSIC LADDER MATCH BETWEEN RAZOR RAMON AND SHAWN MICHAELS THAT TOOK PLACE LATER THAT EVENING! AND A SHOCKING RESULT CAME OUT OF THIS MATCH. RATING; 5/5

2. BAM BAM BIGELOW & LUNA VACHON VS. DOINK & DINK
JUST A DUMB TAG TEAM MATCH THAT DOESN'T DESERVE A SPOT ON THIS EVENT. RATING; 1/5

3. RANDY SAVAGE VS. CRUSH
THEY SHOULD'VE GOTTEN A BETTER OPPONENT FOR SAVAGE. RATING; 2/5

4. FOR THE WWE WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPION ALUNDRA BLAZE [MADUSA] VS. LELANI KAI
UNINTERESTING WOMEN'S TITLE MATCH. RATING; 1/5

5. FOR THE WWE WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
CHAMPIONS THE QUEBECERS [JACQUES & RAYMOND ROUGEAU] VS. MEN ON A MISSION [MABEL AKA VISCERA & MO]
PREDICTABLE AND STUPID. AND PLUS, IT'S A PRETTY POINTLESS MATCH. RATING; 1/5

6. 1ST MATCH FOR THE WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPION YOKOZUNA [R.I.P.] VS. LEX LUGER SPECIAL REFEREE; THE LATE GREAT MR. PERFECT
A LACKLUSTER TITLE MATCH. THIS MATCH SHOULD'VE BEEN A LOT BETTER THAN WHAT IT WAS. RATING; 1.5/5

7. EARTHQUAKE VS. ADAM BOMB
BORING MATCH. RATING; 1/5

8. 1ST EVER LADDER MATCH FOR THE WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPION RAZOR RAMON VS. SHAWN MICHAELS
A CLASSIC MATCH. AND THIS REALLY HELPED SAVE THIS WRESTLEMANIA FROM BEING THE WORST WRESTLEMANIA OF THEM ALL. FULL OF HIGH FLYING ACTION AND GOOD MOVES, THIS MATCH SHOULD SATISFY ANY WRESTLING FAN. RATING; 5/5

9. 2ND MATCH FOR THE WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPION YOKOZUNA [R.I.P.] VS. BRET HART
AFTER LEX LUGER WAS DISQUALIFIED EARLIER IN THE EVENING IN YOKO'S 1ST TITLE DEFENSE, YOKO HAD TO PUT THE TITLE ON THE LINE FOR A 2ND TIME. HOWEVER, THIS TIME, THERE WAS ANOTHER SPECIAL REFEREE FOR THIS MATCH. THIS TIME, IT WAS RODDY PIPER. THIS MATCH WAS OK. AT LEAST BRET PICKS UP THE WIN IN THE END. RATING; 3.5/5

AND SO, THERE GOES A CRAPPY WRESTLEMANIA. THE SHOW WAS BAD. IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT IT HAD 2 REALLY REALLY GOOD MATCHES. THIS IS ONE OF THE WORST WRESTLEMANIAS. THE ONLY ONES WORSE THAN THIS ONE ARE XI AND XIII.

When it comes from madison square garden you know its gonna be big.Bret Hart highlighted the show with the opening match and the main event.First in one of the best technical fights against his brother Owen Hart and the main event for the wwf title against the 568 pd monster yokozuna.Yokozuna also had to fight Lex Luger and Lex woudve won if it wasnt for the dumb refere Mr perfect.A great story leading up to that match.And who can forget one of the greatest matchs of all time the first ever ladder match between Shawn Michaels and Razor Ramon for the Intercontinental title.Also Randy makes his last mania appearance.And a whole lot more...

Lots of people say this is the greatest Wrestlemania of all time (although I wonder how many of them are Scott Keith fanboys.) I disagree: Wrestlemania 17 is better, but this is easily second best. There are really only two matches on the tape that are spectacular: the opener, Bret Hart v. Owen Hart. It's truly awesome. And, of course, as it's known in wrestling circles: The Ladder Match. Shawn Micheals and Razor Ramon put on a show that was CRAZY for the time and still holds up fine today. It wasn't as manic and fast paced as the TLC matches of today, but it was truly great. Other than those two matches, there's not a lot of memorable on this tape. I don't even remember all the matches. I do remember thinking Luger and Yoko was way too long. It would actually have been entertaining if it'd been five minutes (max) considering their repertoires. Doink's match was...well, a Doink match, although I have to agree with Vince and be very politically incorrect when I say that midgets are funny! Dink's amusing, at least. The woman's match was an actual MATCH as opposed to a skankfest like today, which is very cool. The main event could have used a finish, too, but otherwise, this is a great show. Don't get me wrong, the other matches aren't BAD...the show is entertaining throughout.

The tenth anniversary of WrestleMania was a mixed bag.

Bret Hart VS Owen Hart: A perfect way to start off this event with Owen winning in the end with a roll-up.

Doink @ Dink VS Luna @ Bam Bam Bigelow: Ugh, what a crappy match and the ending was bad beyond belief.

Randy Savage VS Crush: I remember this feud quite well as McMahon is estatic to see Savage. I wonder what happened between this two anyways but I digress. Crush beats on Savage for the first few minutes but Savage throws salt back in Crush's face and here comes Savage! Mr Fuji dumps water on Crush's face to revive him. It was a very short match but enjoyable. Savage would be gone from WWF not long after this event and never seen in a WWF/WWE ring ever again.

Alundra Blayze vs Leilani Kai: Skip

Man I hated Vince's forced laughter when he did commentating.

Men on a Mission VS Quebecers: Quebecers looked good in this match and Mabel had moments of brilliance. The match ended out of nowhere with a count out.

Lex Luger VS Yokozuna with Mr Perfect as Guest ref: Mr. Perfect gets a big ovation for being the ref and got a bigger ovation then Luger. McMahon sells Luger hard and predicts he's going win and usher in the new generation. Luger hits an awesome cross body block from the top rope for a two count and hits a nice elbow but couldnt gain the win. The match then goes into a boring slow pace as Yoko had Luger in a nerve hold for almost five minutes, Yoko throws him to the outside, and locks him in the same nerve hold. Luger finally manages a comeback and hits a forearm but Cornette and Fuji come into the ring. Perfect doesnt make the count and tries to get Cornette up and then Fuji, Luger gets mad and hits Perfect. The match had some good moments in the opening minutes but fell flat due to very long nerve holds appiled by Yokozuna. The ending made no sense whatsoever and McMahon is confused. The crowd chants bulls@&*, probably a first for a WWF/WWE crowd.

Earthquake returns and quickly squashes Adam Bomb.

Shawn Michaels VS Razor Ramon in a Ladder Match: This match is an all time classic and one WrestleMania moment that is always shown. If you havent watched it yet then your either new to wrestling or living under a rock.

A nice video package of Bret Hart is shown before the main event.

Yokozuna VS Bret Hart with speical guest ref Roddy Piper: Its funny how they are talking about Hart lost the opening match and it could effect him. I guess they forgot Yokozuna wrestled earlier, McMahon is not as enthused for Bret Hart as he was for Lex Luger. The match is pretty weak and not really main event worthy. Yoko attempts a bonsai drop but falls from the ropes and Hart covers him for the win. McMahon goes off after this win and says the new era is here, considering Yoko is farily new himself it didnt make much sense. If he beat Hogan i'd understand.

Overall, a mixed batch of matches. The Owen/Bret and Ladder matchs were show stealers and Macho Man/Crush and M.O.M/Quebecers were decent matches. The two best matches are on other sets so no need to watch this unless you got the anthology.

This is often referred to as the greatest Wrestlemania of all time. It definitely has to be in the top 3. From the awesome opener with Bret and Owen Hart facing off in the middle of Madison Sqaure Garden, to the cool ending of the Hitman proudly taking the WWF Championship from Yokozuna, this event packs a sure-fire WWF punch. The Bret/Yoko match is a sort of rematch to their Wrestlemania encounter from the year before. In that match, Yoko takes the title from Bret. But the Canadian legend makes up for it in this March 1994 Garden classic. Yoko defends the title twice in one night thanks to the previous January's Royal Rumble controversy in which both Bret and Lex Luger toppled over the top rope at the same time, being declared co-winners by onscreen WWF President Jack Tunney. Yoko defends the title first against Lex Luger, with Hall Of Famer Mr. Perfect Curt Henning as the special guest ref. Bret gets his shot against Yoko with Roddy Piper as the ref. This Mania also features the first pay-per-view WWF Ladder Match between "The Bad Guy" Razor Ramon and "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels, competing for the undisputed WWF Intercontinental Championship. The WWF also uses an imposter dressed as President Bill Clinton, something they would duplicate at Survivor Series 1995 the next year. It's a pretty funny little angle. All in all, a great Wrestlemania that you need to help make your collection complete.

Three matches carried this event to five stars. Bret/Owen and Shawn/Razor for sheer AWESOMENESS, and Yoko/Bret for historic value and satisfaction. On top of that, the crowd is hot and the pay per view is packed with drama, excitement, and the *big* feeling that the tenth ever Mania should have.

Owen vs. Bret - AMAZING technical match that goes back and forth with incredible psychology. There isn't a single rest hold that doesn't have some logic or psychology to it. *****

Doink and Dink vs. Bam Bam Bigelow and Luna Vachon - who the HELL booked this crap? Amusing filler, I suppose. Bigelow was one of the hardest-working big men of all time and the WWF trashed him with crap like this. What a shame. *

Falls Count Anywhere: Randy Savage vs. Crush - The stipulation here was that after a pinfall, the ref would begin a count to 60. If the pinned man could not make it back to the ring after 60, the match was over. This was Savage's last hurrah in the WWF. Okay enough match, with Savage rightfully getting a victory. **1/4

WWF Women's Title: Leilani Kai vs. Alundra Blayze - I couldn't care less about the women's division, but I always liked Alundra Blayze. She had style. Leilani Kai is old and brings down a decent women's wrestler. *

Quebecers vs. Men on a Mission - The Quebecers were really solid workers at this time, but they were put against the abysmal Mabel. They carried this to a decent rating. **3/4

WWF Title Match #1: Yokozuna vs. Lex Luger - TERRIBLE match with a screwjob ending. Yoko holds a vulcan nerve hold to the trapezius of DOOM for about 10-12 solid minutes, with one slight break in the middle of actual wrestling. The ending does provide some really good heat, however, but after this match you're thinking a good PPV has turned horribly mediocre. 1/2*, just for the Lex screwjob

Adam Bomb vs. Earthquake - Nice little filler/DUD slipped in there to eat up a minute. Another chapter in the Harvey Whippleman/Howard Finkleman feud. (snicker)

Ladder match for the IC title: Razor Ramon vs. Shawn Michaels - IN-FREAKING-CREDIBLE! Just when you thought Owen-Bret was match of the night, these two put on a match unlike anything ever seen in a WWF ring. It's slower than the modern ladder match, so complete idiots who are programmed to salivate over modern matches like Pavlov dogs will say this is subpar. Those people are idiots. There's some PSYCHOLOGY to the slow spots, morons. Two men getting beaten with ladders are SUPPOSED to move slowly after 15-20 minutes of fighting. But I digress. This has some truly great spots and is worth seeing for every reason you would want to see a match. *****

WWF Title match #2: Bret Hart vs. Yokozuna - Mercifully short match with not too much stalling and good psychology by Bret with the selling of his knee injury. The match is a solid *1/2-**, but the historic value of "David" beating "Goliath" makes this match worth about a **** or more. That's right - Bret upsets Yoko to avenge the terrible outcome of the previous year's 'Mania and go on to become one of the greatest WWF Champions of all time. (THE greatest, IMHO)

Overall, awesome show. Razor and Shawn get over for their incredible match, and Bret and Owen get over for monumental victories. It gave four of the WWF's most talented workers at the time some palpable prestige, and the wrestling ain't half bad either. Terrific 'Mania.
