Wwe Batista vs Rock

Hello everyone. In preparation for my heavy past Mania DVD watching before the big day of Wrestlemania XXVI, I decided to dust off my keyboard after taking a break from my "Against The Grain" column to contribute to 411's Annual Countdown To Wrestlemania. This year, I wanted to provide a minor recap of sorts from my Mania' column from last year "Living Through A Decade of Wrestlemania" (and for the record I wanted to thank every reader who commented then on this as those were seriously some of the coolest and nicest comments that I've EVER had gotten for any article/column/piece that I've written so far…greatly appreciated), by looking back at my discussed main last 10 years (1998 - 2008) of witnessing the event to pick out the matches that I found to be somewhat underrated throughout the years.
