Everything about Wrestlemania Xiv totally explained
WrestleMania XIV was the fourteenth WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), which took place on March 29 1998 at the FleetCenter in Boston, Massachusetts. The tagline for WrestleMania XIV was dX raided.
The pay-per-view event was mostly remembered for the start of the first World Wrestling Federation Championship reign for Steve Austin. His victory in the main event, against Shawn Michaels (who performed despite his own severe injury), is often cited as the "official" beginning of the Attitude Era.
