"It is considered by many to be one of the greatest WrestleManias of all time." and phrases such as "Some fans have cited..." are examples of "weasel" words. See Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words Need some objective prose here. FinFangFoom 06:02, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

This is one of those things I usually edit out on sight and let someone revert if they can justify it...but that's just me. PhilTLL 07:23, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

I edited out the bit about Undertaker's undefeated streak. It was mentioned at Wrestlemania XIII. Mr. Papaya

Actually, Wrestlemania X-Seven is argued by some as the end of the Attitude Era, it wasn't the official end.LC6

Actually the overall consensus is that WrestleMania X-Seven did mark the end of the attitude era.-3bulletproof16 17:59, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

No, because ratings were still high after Wrestlemaia X-Seven, and overall the product was still doing fine in everything. Even during the Invasion business wasn't really slumping. After Wrestlemaia X-8 though the Brand Split came along and rating started hitting scary new lows and the Attitude Era stars started taking a back seat to new stars. LC6

Yeah but that's your POV which by Wikipedia policy is not allowed. We have reached an overall consensus on this matter already. This is the way things work around here. I can tell you are new so I suggest you read Wikipedia's policy before you make any more edits.-3bulletproof16 22:49, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

You could've at least said by some, because not everyone thinks that X-7 was the end of the Attitude Era. Some debated that X-7 ended it, they didn't say that it was the official end. Check the WWE article on end of Attitude Era, it says that fans said different things on what ended the Attitude Era. It didn't completely say X-7.LC6

Where was this "consensus" reached? I don't recall seeing that on the WP:PW talk page. TJ Spyke 21:41, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Well they need to go back and discuss that because I truly disagree with Wrestlemania X-7 as the end of the Attitude Era. Just because Austin turned heel doesn't mean it was the end of the Attitude Era. The stars make the era not heel/face turns.LC6 19:21, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia -- Light Heavyweight Title defense

I'm not sure when this tite defense actually take place, but it says that it happened on the Sunday Night Show preceding WM (which I guess it means Heat). It couldn't have happened on Heat, though, because the Heat match was X-Pac & Justin Credible vs. Steve Blackman vs. Grandmaster Sexay. Maybe it happened at Axxess... Anyone who knows, please make the corrections necessary... --Andresg770 19:30, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Austin's heel turn is important

I added his heel turn since it was the major moment of the evening—The preceding unsigned comment was added by The Showster (talkcontribs).

Heel and face turns are rarely worth mentioning though since they happen all the time, and especially not-notable in a PPV article. TJ Spyke 18:19, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WrestleMania X-Seven is highest-grossing pro wrestling PPV?

This line: "WrestleMania X-Seve is the highest-grossing WWE event and highest-grossing professional wrestling pay-per-view" - it is not right according to the information that exists on Wikipedia, the highest-grossing PPV is actually WrestleMania X8. The WMX8 page states that over 68,000 fans attended the event at Skydome whereas the count for WMX-Seven stands at over 67,000. Also the converted 6.1 million Canadian dollars stand at 3.9m USD, compared to 3.5m USD for this event. Please check that page out too and put down the right figures.
