Tip: Stop when you find something useful.
This is the stuff legends are made of. A No Disqualification match at WrestleMania X-Seven saw these two pull out all the stops. Steel chairs, brawls outside the ring, and enough beer to fill a swimming pool (allegedly). In the end, Stone Cold stunned The Rock cold, reclaiming the WWF Championship for the fifth time.
