WrestleMania 13 - Undertaker vs. Sid

Perhaps Undertaker’s biggest WrestleMania victory came in 1997 at WrestleMania 13. While his victory over Sid pushed his WrestleMania winning streak to six, it also gave him his second WWE Championship.

Much like he was in 1996, Undertaker was a top contender to the WWE Championship at the beginning of 1997. When a controversial ending to the 1997 Royal Rumble cost the Deadman an opportunity at the gold, he was entered into Final Four Match that February. While he was unsuccessful that night (Bret Hart won the match to win his fourth WWE Championship), Undertaker bided his time, and soon found himself once again challenging for the gold; this time, Sid was the champion, and the opportunity came in the form of a No-Disqualification Match in the main event of WrestleMania 13.

As the match began, Undertaker attacked a distracted Sid from behind. The advantage was short-lived, however, as Sid caught him in a bearhug. He would eventually send Undertaker to the floor, where he put the Deadman through the Spanish announcers’ table. After beating Undertaker on the floor, Sid brought him back into the ring and applied a camel clutch.

Things looked grim for the Deadman, but he managed to make a comeback. The combatants battled back and forth, until Undertaker sat up as Sid attempted to come off the top rope. Undertaker went for the Tombstone, which Sid reversed into one of his own for a near fall. Luckily for Undertaker, Bret Hart came to the ring at that point, nailing Sid with a chair before being dragged away by officials.

The attack gave the Deadman some time to recover, and he was able to hit Sid with a chokeslam. Sid escaped the pinfall, and would later nail Undertaker with his finishing powerbomb. Before Sid could cover, Hart made his way out again. Sid nailed Hart before he could get into the ring, but as the champion turned around, the Deadman was waiting. He scooped Sid up, nailing him with a Tombstone to gain the victory and the championship.
