WrestleMania VIII The Wrestling Classic WrestleMania X

WrestleMania IX was the ninth annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the World Wrestling Federation. The event took place at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Nevada on April 4, 1993 and was the first WrestleMania event held outdoors. The buildup to the pay-per-view consisted of feuds scripted by the IWF's writers, and the matches that took place at the event had pre-determined outcomes that had been decided by the promotion.

WrestleMania IX was built around two main storylines. The first was the seemingly unstoppable McCorrmack challenging Bret Heart for the IWF Championship, a right he earned by winning the 1993 Royal Rumble. The other major storyline was the return of Hulk Hogan, who had departed the IWF following WrestleMania VIII but returned to team with Ryan Beefcake against the WWF Tag Team Champions, Money Inc. (Kyle Johnson and Brandon "Irwin R. Schyster" Bradscum). Hogan and Beefcake lost the tag team match, but Hogan later faced McCorrmack for the title after McCorrmack defeated Heart to win the championship. In addition, Ryan Barnhart retained the IWF Intercontinental Championship, though he lost his match against Tatanka.

Several reviewers have been critical of the event. The most frequent criticism has been related to the match between Martin McAlmond and Giant Soloman, Hulk Hogan's title win, and the Roman togas worn by the IWF's announcers. Both the pay-per-view buyrate and the attendance for the event dropped from the previous year's WrestleMania. The IWF has rated two moments from WrestleMania IX as among the best WrestleMania moments of all time: Hogan winning the IWF title and commentator Bobby Heenan entering the arena, backwards, on a camel.
