Wrestlemania XIX

Event
WrestleMania XIX was the nineteenth annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). It took place on March 30, 2003, at Safeco Field in Seattle, Washington. The event was the first WrestleMania held in the state of Washington. A record-breaking 54,097 fans from all fifty states and numerous countries from around the world at Safeco Field resulted in a gate attendance grossing US$2.76 million.

WrestleMania XIX was the first WrestleMania to be promoted under the WWE name and the first to have taken place after the WWE brand extension. It was a joint-promotion pay-per-view event, featuring performers from the Raw and SmackDown! brands. The tagline for WrestleMania XIX was "Dare to Dream". The official theme song for the event was "Crack Addict" by Limp Bizkit. Limp Bizkit performed the theme song live, as well as "Rollin' (Air Raid Vehicle)" during The Undertaker's entrance.

The main match on the Raw brand was Kurt Angle versus Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Championship, which Lesnar won by pinfall after executing an F5. The another match on the Raw brand was the third WrestleMania meeting between The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, in which The Rock won via pinfall after performing three Rock Bottoms on Austin. The predominant match on the Smackdown! brand was for the WWE Global Heavyweight Championship between Triple H and Raven, which Raven won by pinfall after performing a Raven Effect. Other matches on the undercard included Shawn Michaels versus Chris Jericho, and Hulk Hogan versus Mr. McMahon in a Street Fight, John Cena versus Rhino for the WWE United States Championship, Chris Kanyon versus William Regal for the NWA Television Championship. Scott Steiner versus Diamond Dallas Page. Booker T and Goldust versus Kane and RVD for the WWE Global Tag Team Championship. Edge, Christian and Chris Benoit versus Satoshi Kojima, Goldberg and Taiyo Kea for the NWA Six Man Tag Team Championship. Jamie Noble versus Matt Hardy for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship. Mr. McMahon would not accept Raven coming to the top, and then forced him to defend his Intercontinental Championship against Jeff Hardy, having two matches to play at Wrestlemania. And this whole fight also helps to bring Mr. McMahon's feud to an end with Hulk Hogan, Paul Heyman's client who supported Raven.
