I missed most of the classics and didn't watch WCW so I'm going through every PPV ever. Currently on my first watch of WrestleMania 2. 80s Manias on another level.

Ray Charles kicking it off huge. Piper and Mr. T boxing? Is that Joe Frazier? Fuck yeah. On paper I had wondered "why would this be booked?" and the answer is because it's fucking awesome. The NFL battle royale is amazing! Such an absurd use of cross promotion. I popped when Studd and Refrigerator were throwing clubs at each other. And baby Bret Hart headbutting Andre the Giant in the butt? Incredible. Simply stunning. Ozzy bouncing around with the tag title in a Mark Henry retirement salmon suit. Elvira for some reason? Sure!

I wasn't ever really against using celebs in wrestling or at Mania, more indifferent, but now I'm all in. Give me that Modern Family Elimination Chamber and The Padres vs Team Smackdown 15-man Survivor Series match. Miz vs Ryan Cabrera hair vs hair? Sign me up.
