Little known fact: Comedian Freddy Lewis was thrown out of WrestleMania 1. He kept shouting, “Anyone who dislikes Piper is an a**hole!” xoxo The Clarences
Kids today don't understand the significance of Wrestlemania. Back then, pro-wrestling was regional, so you only see the wrestlers from your region. Most of the matched were squash match, where a named pro beats on a nobody. The main event will be the last match between two recognized wrestlers. Occasionally, another top wrestler from another region would come and wrestle the top dog in your region. That's it. Wrestlemania broke the mold and featured main events for every match with top wrestlers from every region. It was like the NCAA March Madness for wrestling that all happens in one night.
WrestleMania 1 was great! The only thing that could’ve made it cooler, would have been if Hogan had the title on the line, even in a tag match, it would’ve been awesome!
true, but the match was big anyway , you know i didn't ever watch the first wrestlemania until i was 18 & that was 1993 I rented it from blockbuster video , but you know in my opinion the greatest westlemania ever was number 3
Ya good call there. He’s the only Pro Wrestler to grace the cover of Sports Illustrated, and he only had about a decade as the biggest draw in Professional Sports history.
@iminyourcloset388 Because that's what the fans wanted, they had they talent for main eventers, and the majority of the matches win or lose were on track. They didn't seem to take that seriously throughout the two decades!
hard to believe were just around the corner from Wrestlemania XL , hard to believe 40 years has past
WrestleMania 1 was great.
Piper was unreal in 1985.
I feel blessed to have been a kid growing up in this era. Kids now have no idea what they missed.
Being a 6 year old Hulkamaniac was a great feeling
Then growing up to learn he’s a self absorbed, coke snorting, sex addicted scum bag is just awful 😅😢
Imagine being Mr. T, a big tough dude........and then standing next to Hulk Hogan, you look like a high school student.
3:52 WrestleMania 39 Night 1: Hold my beer
Wrestlemania 40 Night 1: Hold my beer again!
I was literally ONE day old when this took place! Maybe like 15 hours old...

Thunder Lips and Clubber Lang...
I think the absence of Rocky 3 from this video.. is missing a huge chunk of the buildup.. respecfully
I always thought that hulk hogan was just a joke.

Back when Wrestlemania use to be something special! Throughout the years is turned into a joke!
How?

I stopped watching wrestling or being interested in it after Wrestlemania 11. It was already getting too stupid for me.
@@JasonNoxid Because that's* what

They didn't* seem
Even now
Worst thing ever happened
