Welcome to my Wrestlemania review series. I will be reviewing every single Wrestlemania leading up to Wrestlemania 33, including the Manias I’ve already done. Join me on this journey and take a look at the history of the grandest stage of them all. Today, we revisit what is the biggest and most important Wrestlemania in WWE’s history, Wrestlemania III. It is known for its record-breaking attendance and two legendary matches that have influenced many wrestlers we know today. Does it hold up? Let’s find out. Enjoy. Run-Time: 3 hours. Date: March 29th, 1987 Arena: The Pontiac Silverdome in Detroit, Michigan Attendance: 93,173. The LARGEST in-door attendance record in America at that time. Commentary: Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse Ventura. Sportscaster & showbiz superstar, Bob Uecker. The host of Entertainment Tonight, Mary Hart. Ring Announcer: Howard Finkel Interviewer(s): Vince McMahon & Mean Gene Okerlund. Rick Martel & Tom Zenk (Can-Am Connection) vs. Don Muraco & Bob Orton w/ Mr. Fuji Winner: The Can-Am Connection. Rating: Fun, fast-paced match! (B-) Hercules w/ Bobby The Brain Heenan vs. Billy Jack Haynes Winner: No contest. Double count-out. Rating: Average. (C) Six-Man Tag w/ midget wrestlers King Kong Bundy, Lord Littlebrook & Little Tokyo vs. Hillbilly Jim, The Haiti Kid & Little Beaver Winner: Jim, Haiti Kid, and Little Beaver by DQ. Rating: Awful. (D-) King Harley Race w/ Bobby The Brain Heenan & Fabulous Moolah vs. Junkyard Dog Winner: Harley Race. Rating: Okay. (C-) Rougeau Brothers vs. The Dream Team (Beefcake & Valentine) w/Luscious Johnny & Dino Bravo Winner: The Dream Team. Rating: Average. (C) Hair vs. Hair Rowdy Roddy Piper vs. “Adorable” Adrian Adonis Winner: Roddy Piper Rating: Really Good! (B+) Six-Man Tag Team Match The Hart Foundation © & Referee Danny Davis w/ Jimmy Hart vs. British Bulldogs & Tito Santana Winner: Hart Foundation and Danny Davis. Rating: Good!! (B) Butch “The Natural” Reed w/Slick vs. “Birdman” Koko B Ware Winner: Butch Reed. Rating: Boring. Extremely lifeless match. (D) WWF Intercontinental Championship Ricky The Dragon Steamboat vs. “Macho Man” Randy Savage © Winner: NEW IC Champion!! Ricky The Dragon Steamboat Rating: Classic! (A+) One of the greatest matches in Wrestlemania history! Jake The Snake Roberts vs. Honky Tonk Man w/ Jimmy Hart Winner: Honky Tonk Man wins, using the ropes. Rating: Average. (C) The Iron Sheik & Nikolai Volkoff vs. The Killer Bees Winner: Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff win by DQ after Duggan attacked Sheik. Rating: Underwhelming. Weak match. (D+) The Main Event Hulk Hogan vs. Andre The Giant Winner: Hulk Hogan. Rating: Decent! (C+) Overall show grade: Decent show. (C+) Nothing noteworthy or worth watching more than once, but you managed to sit through the entire show entertained for the most part. Average matches, some good, some not so good. Storylines make little to no progression and booking at points are questionable. If you watch it, you’ll be entertained by it. However, you most likely won’t remember it as time goes by. A simple blueprint, by the books, show. ------------------------ Follow Alyx on Social Media: https://linktr.ee/Just_Alyx ----------------------- • Audio Podcast - https://t.co/zKCNK2j4Xj • Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheJustAlyxCentral • Twitter - https://twitter.com/JustAlyxCentral • Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ahix0790/ • Paypal - https://www.paypal.me/dalyxman • Discord - https://discord.gg/H7WXDPxYEG • Tiktok - https://www.tiktok.com/@justalyx • Cashapp: $JUSTALYX90 • VENMO: $ANH1990 • PWTees Merchandise: https://www.prowrestlingtees.com/dalyxmantees ___________ Submit your music to be featured on a podcast: SubmitHub: https://www.submithub.com/ Submit your music to me here: https://www.submithub.com/to/just-alyx Intro Made By FimFamBot: Follow FimFatBot on Social Media: https://linktr.ee/fimfambot #WWE #Wrestlemania #Wrestling
