What Happened To EVERY Wrestler From WWE WrestleMania 1?

Спорт

On March 31, 1985, Vince McMahon presented what was to that point his greatest gamble: the first WrestleMania. As the then-World Wrestling Federation continued to swell through national expansion, a colorful and charismatic World Champion, and a mainstream link-up with Cyndi Lauper and MTV, McMahon put all of his eggs into the WrestleMania basket, staging a monumental card one early-spring Sunday afternoon at Madison Square Garden in New York City...

    Thanks for the “Rat Pack” mention during the Matt Borne segment. Being a kid from Louisiana, (all apologies for Lafayette) Mid-South, and to a larger extent, Dibiase’s Rat Pack were part of my early childhood. DiBiase was the brains, Duggan was the muscle, and Borne was the crazy wildcard. They were a precursor to the dynamic the Horsemen shared a few years later. Also, Mike Rotunda needs to get more love for his part in the WCW’s Varsity Club before discovering his passion for tax law enforcement in the WWF. Maybe a future show on factions thru the decades?

    *What Happened To The Venue?* The _fourth_ and current *Madison Square Garden* opened in February 1968, controversially being built on the site of historic Penn Station in Midtown Manhattan of New York City. The self-proclaimed "World's Most Famous Arena", it's hosted just about any and every kind of event you could imagine over its 54 years: the NHL's New York Rangers (including the Stanley Cup Finals in 1972, 1979, 1994 (which they won) and 2015), the NBA's New York Knicks (including the NBA Finals in 1970 (which they won), 1972, 1973, 1994 and 1999), 4 political conventions, the annual Westminster Dog Show, which used to preempt RAW every February, and countless concerts - singer/songwriter Billy Joel even _lives_ there now. In wrestling, on top of WrestleMania I it also hosted Mania's X and XX, as well as the Royal Rumble in 2000 and 2008, SummerSlam in 1988, 1991 and 1998, and Survivor Series in 1996, 2002 and 2011. You can _usually_ tell a high-profile WWE MSG show by its simplified set, typically consisting of just a Titantron-fitted door over the entrance way, uniquely across from the hard cam. In addition, it also hosted a joint NJPW/ROH event, "G1 Supercard", in April of 2019. Since the opening of Brooklyn's Barclays Center in 2012, the number of events at the more-expensive MSG has _slightly_ declined, most notably with WWE snubbing the Garden almost entirely except for a couple of non-televised live events each year, in favour of running televised shows at the newer Barclays Center; or in the case of WrestleMania, at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, NJ, across the _other_ river from Manhattan. Despite its status as well as a multi-year renovation a decade ago, the Garden's future actually has a bit of uncertainty attached to it - in July 2013 New York City Council voted to give MSG's owners a 10-year operating permit, after which they can either apply for a new permit or move the arena entirely, to make way for a newly-rebuilt Penn Station.
