Ranking Top 10 Surprising WWE Stars Who Have Never Won A Match At WrestleMania

Being part of the main event or even headlining WrestleMania is considered the pinnacle of achievement for most WWE stars. It signifies top-tier status, pushes you into the spotlight, and brings immense media attention. ## A WrestleMania match holds significant importance for many WWE stars, offering potential career boosts, memorable moments, and increased exposure. Even non-main event matches at WrestleMania can create iconic moments that resonate with fans for years. Think of Edge spearing Jeff Hardy off a ladder or Undertaker's undefeated streak ending. These moments can solidify a wrestler's legacy and endear them to fans. ## WrestleMania has the biggest viewership of any WWE event, providing unparalleled exposure for all participants. This can be crucial for mid-card wrestlers to gain recognition and potentially move up the ranks. ## Below check out the top 10 WWE stars who have indeed competed at the event, but never got to win a single match. ## 1.

Top 10 WWE Wrestlers With Most WrestleMania Wins

WWE WrestleMania stands as the pinnacle event in WWE history, making it a dream for many wrestling stars to grace its card and headline the spectacle.## As the 2024 WrestleMania approaches, let's examine the top 10 wrestlers who have not only made the most appearances but also secured the most victories.## Across the 39 WrestleMania events, The Undertaker stands tall with an impressive 25 wins. Below, let's take a look at the top 10 wrestlers with the most victories. ## 1. The Undertaker - Won 25 And Lost 2 ## The Deadman himself, The Undertaker, reigns supreme at WrestleMania with a staggering 25 victories. His legendary undefeated streak of 21 consecutive wins, etched forever in wrestling history, solidifies his position as the undisputed king of the grandest stage. With a total of 27 matches under his belt, it's highly improbable that his record will ever be eclipsed.## Throughout his WrestleMania career, The Undertaker has conquered an impressive roster of opponents, leaving a trail of defeated legends in his wake. From Triple H, whom he's vanquished thrice, to Shawn Michaels and Kane, who each fell twice to his power, his dominance is undeniable. Other giants like Ric Flair, John Cena, Batista, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Edge, Bray Wyatt, and AJ Styles have all tasted defeat at the hands of The Phenom. ## 2. John Cena: Won 10 And Lost 6 ## No discussion of WrestleMania legends is complete without John Cena, the iconic figure known by various personas like "The Champ," "Super Cena," and "Big Match John." He served as his generation's Hulk Hogan, consistently taking center stage in the event's most prestigious matches.## Cena's WrestleMania dominance is undeniable. He boasts victories over wrestling royalty like Triple H, Shawn Michaels, The Rock, Batista, JBL, Edge, and the formidable duo of Big Show and Edge in thrilling World Title matches. This impressive list doesn't end there. He emerged victorious in United States Title bouts against The Big Show and Rusev, further showcasing his championship prowess. Moreover, his triumphs over Bray Wyatt and the controversial partnership of The Miz and Maryse (with Nikki Bella by his side) solidified his versatility and adaptability in the grand arena. ## 3. Triple H - Won 10 And Lost 13 ## Triple H has a unique WrestleMania legacy, boasting the third most victories despite having the most losses. With the second most matches in WrestleMania history, he's defeated iconic names like Brock Lesnar, Batista, Randy Orton, Sting, Chris Jericho, and Booker T. ## Notably, he was the first heel to win the WrestleMania main event in 2000, retaining his WWE Title against The Rock, Mick Foley, and The Big Show. ## 4. Hulk Hogan: Won 8 And Lost 3 And 1 Went Draw ## Hulk Hogan's WrestleMania legacy is defined by his presence in eight of the first nine main events, winning seven of them. Memorable victories include triumphs over Andre the Giant and Randy Savage, as well as notable wins against Sid, Sgt. Slaughter, and King Kong Bundy. ## In 2002, his return to the company culminated in his eighth and final WrestleMania victory in a highly anticipated match against Vince McMahon, billed as "20 years in the making." ## 5. Edge: Won 9 And Lost 5 ## Edge holds a WWE record with 31 title reigns. He began his career with a streak, winning his first five WrestleMania matches, including memorable victories in the fabled triangle ladder and TLC matches, as well as against Booker T and Mick Foley. ## In his final match before retirement in 2011, he defended his World Heavyweight Championship against Alberto Del Rio. Since returning in 2020, he has secured victories over Randy Orton and AJ Styles at WrestleMania. ## 6. Bret Hart: Won 8 And Lost 6 ## Bret "The Hitman" Hart competed in 14 WrestleManias over 24 years, with several historic moments. He secured his first major singles victory by defeating Roddy Piper for the Intercontinental Title in 1992, with Piper later refereeing his wins over Yokozuna and Bob Backlund. ## His classic match against Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 13 is often cited as one of the best and featured a memorable double turn. Hart returned in 2010 to defeat Vince McMahon at WrestleMania 26, concluding their on-screen rivalry. ## 7. Kane: Won 8 And Lost 9 ## Kane, despite having a losing record, has been a consistent presence just below the top tier throughout his career. ## At WrestleMania, he's had notable victories over Triple H (by DQ) and Randy Orton. His quickest triumph came at WrestleMania 24, defeating Chavo Guerrero for the ECW Title in just 11 seconds, making it the shortest title match (and second shortest overall) in WrestleMania history. ## 8. Randy Orton: Won 8 And Lost 10 ## Despite more losses than wins, Randy Orton has secured memorable victories at WrestleMania, including defeating The Rock and Mick Foley at WrestleMania 20. He's added wins against CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Bray Wyatt (twice), Triple H, and John Cena (in a triple threat WWE Title match).## His latest victory was with Matt Riddle as "RKBRO," successfully defending the Raw Tag Titles. Fans speculate if Orton and Riddle could face off at WrestleMania 2023 upon Orton's hopeful return from injury. ## 9. Roman Reigns: Won 8 And Lost 2 ## Roman Reigns boasts a strong WrestleMania record with seven wins from nine outings. His victories include triumphs alongside The Shield and as a singles star, defeating top names like Brock Lesnar, The Undertaker, Triple H, Drew McIntyre, Edge, and Daniel Bryan in a triple threat match.

Recent Photos Of Stephanie McMahon And Triple H Together Following After Stephanie McMahon's WWE Exit

Since stepping down as WWE Chairwoman and co-CEO in 2023, Stephanie McMahon has largely eschewed the spotlight, particularly amidst the recent media frenzy surrounding her father, Vince McMahon. ## Her departure followed a tumultuous period for WWE. Vince controversially re-inserted himself onto the Board of Directors before orchestrating a sale to media giant Endeavor.## This ultimately led to the formation of TKO Holdings Group, merging WWE with the UFC. However, allegations in a lawsuit by former employee Janel Grant forced Vince's resignation from all TKO positions, effectively ending his longstanding tenure in the wrestling industry. ## While speculation swirls about Stephanie's potential return to WWE, her recent public appearance suggests a focus beyond the squared circle. She and her husband, Triple H, were spotted enjoying dinner with combat veterans, an event organized by the Catch A Lift Fund, a non-profit supporting military veterans. ## View this post on Instagram A post shared by Andrew Berman (@fitandhairy) ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...

The Rock Slams False Claims: Fans' Boos At WrestleMania Presser Misconstrued As Maui Relief Fund Backlash

While hyping up his upcoming heel turn at WrestleMania, The Rock shut down false rumors about his Maui Relief Fund efforts. ## During the WrestleMania Kickoff press conference, the internet wrestler known as Cody Rhodes stole the spotlight by announcing his title match against Roman Reigns, surprising fans who expected a Rock vs. Reigns showdown. ## This twist led to some booing from the audience, which was actually part of a pre-planned storyline. However, someone tried to manipulate the situation by using the footage and claiming the boos were directed at The Rock's lack of follow-through on his Maui Relief Fund promises. The Rock, alongside Oprah Winfrey, established the fund to support victims of the devastating Maui fires. Quickly addressing the false information, he took to Twitter to clarify the situation. ## I typically refrain from responding to toxic, false clickbait garbage like this because I hate dignifying bullshit with a response, but when you use Hawaii’s tragic events to draw attention to yourself I won’t stay quiet. This moment you’re referring to is from our @WWE press… https://t.co/z76m1Q7w1N— Dwayne Johnson (@TheRock) February 11, 2024 ## Stay Tuned To Sacnilk...
