Like every great, worldwide recognized sport in this world, WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) also

has its very own Great Event, known to public as, WrestleMania. WrestleMania, over the years have
seen many changes, many new things come, new faces making debuts, veterans retiring, records being
set and broken, streaks being demolished, dream matches being aired and legends saying farewell. It is
set up annually between mid-March and April, during spring. WrestleMania is called by different names.
Some of these nicknames are The Grandest Stage of Them All, The Showcase of Immortals, The Show of
Shows, The Greatest Spectacle in Sports Entertainment, The Super Bowl of Sports Entertainment, The
Granddaddy of Them All etc. A win at WrestleMania can make a superstar’s career while at the same
time a loss can ruin a superstar’s career. Since its dawn, WrestleMania have seen many things come and
go, many records being made and broken, some of these are: First edition i.e. WrestleMania I was aired
on 31st of March 1985, had an attendance of 19,121, however the attendance record was set very
recently, on the 32nd edition i.e. WrestleMania 32 on 3rd April 2016 which is 101,763, first addition aired
for almost an hour, however the latest edition, WrestleMania 36 lasted for 2 days, 3 hours each making
it the longest WrestleMania event in history. A WrestleMania event is usually divided into three parts,
first being the kickoff show and main show analysis, then comes the main show, and lastly the Main
Event, which usually the most hyped match of the evening, and the superstars involved are Main
Eventers. Hulk Hogan holds the record for most WrestleMania Main Events, 8. This record is closely
followed by Triple H at 7. The record for most appearances goes to The Undertaker at 27 matches which
is closely followed by, yet again, Triple H at 23. During this run of 27 matches by The Undertaker, he only
lost 2 matches, this includes a legendary run of 21 matches undefeated streak, which was eventually
broken by Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 30 in 2014, causing Undertaker his first defeat.
