This PPV not only had quality matches from top to bottom on it, but it also where John Cena and Batista truly became "the guy" for their respective brands at the time.
Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels, and Undertaker vs. Orton were easily the 2 best matches on the card but everything else is a toss-up from there in my opinion.
Down below are the promotional videos/movie parodies that WWE used to promote the event
Most of them are funny, so enjoy

Goodeasily one of the best wrestlemanias of that decade
-
GoodHBK vs Angle is probably my favorite match all time
Plus Rey vs Eddie might have been the GOAT opening match behind Bret vs Owen at WM10 -
GOATIt's a classic, from top to bottom you can run just about every match and enjoy it.
I say "just about every match" because that Cena/JBL match was a bit of a mess as well as the Big Show debacle.
But Orton/Taker, Angle/HBK, Mysterio/Guerrero all classics. I can watch any of those 100 times and not get bored.
I haven't even mentioned the MITB ladder match either. -
GoodIt's one of the better Wrestlemaniaa aside from the Big Show match
