This also meant that another performer took over the baton as the best unbeaten wrestler at ‘Mania with four victories and zero defeats – Rob Van Dam.

Mr. Monday Nights made his ‘Mania debut at WM 18, defeating William Regal for the Intercontinental title. Him and Booker T retained the World tag team title at WM 20 as well. Van Dam took over the moniker of Mr. Money in the Bank with a ladder match victory at WM 22 and was also victorious in a tag team match the following year.

He did suffer a defeat on the preshow of WM 19, teaming up with Kane in a losing effort for the World tag team titles, but RVD is perfect in the main show.
