    Much better than today's rubbish.

    I can't understand why this "Wrestlemania" is hated so much. It has a few naff matches but there is plenty of quality action as well. Hulk Hogan's steel cage match against King Kong Bundy, is a sight to behold. The latter sure looks enthusiastic about charging into Hogan and taking the wind out of him! No wonder Hogan didn't like this match. A great main event. Ricky Steamboat has a good match with Hercules and displays a variety of moves. The tag team title match is marvelous from beginning to end! The British Bulldogs were one of the leading teams in the WWE at the time and were worthy of holding the belts. Jake Roberts made his P.P.V debut in a short but good encounter with George Wells (who ever he was). The 20 Man Battle Royal is a major highlight: a mixture of wrestlers and football players. I like the way Andre the Giant casually tosses out some of the opposition! The Adonis/Elmer match is poor, it's true. Too short and not enough happening. The same applies to the women's title match. Macho Man must have felt rather insulted at having to work with someone as stiff as George "the Animal" Steele. The former does his very best to put on a decent show but the latter gives nothing in return. Paul Orndorff and Don Muraco have a reasonable opening match but the ending was a bit silly. For me, the positives of "Wrestlemania II" FAR outweigh the negatives.

    A very lackluster show. I remember being like "What a show!" Back when I first saw it. Well 17 years later and I really dont like any of the card at all. Well thats what happens when you turn from Mark to Smark.

    The Funks vs. JYD and Tito match was suprinsgly good, while Match of the night honours go to Bulldogs vs. Valentine/Beefcake.

    Not recommended.

    BTW, if you want to chat about the good old days of wrestling just drop me an e-mail!

    Three different locations? STUPID!

    This one is not quite as bad as the first, but it does suck. The tag-title match is good, and I like battle royals, so that is a fun watch (even with pro-footballers in there) But the three different locals sticks. YOu get stuck with different annoucers & crowds and just breaks up the show. Take a pass on this one for sure.

    SEQUELS

    Sequels are rarely as good as the original this is an example of that. A year on from the show where Mr Vincent k McMahon gambled it all on his one off show. This feels way less of a gamble and 💵 cashing in on the year before.

    • Trivia
      A couple of days prior to the event, Bobby Heenan was in a hospital in Tampa, Florida, having an MRI done. Heenan was discovered to have two fractured vertebraes, which doctors said would require two bone pieces to be taken from his hip and placed in his neck. The night before WrestleMania 2, WWF bookers told Heenan that if he didn't make it to Los Angeles for King Kong Bundy's main event match against Hulk Hogan, Heenan would be fired. In Heenan's words, "I left the hospital, flew from Tampa to L.A., went to the ring, worked the match, took a bump for Hogan. After that, I immediately caught a redeye back to Tampa, went back to the hospital, and they said, 'Where have you been?' and I said, 'I went to L.A. to wrestle.' They said, 'You're nuts!' I said, 'No, it's my neck.' So you have to do what you have to do sometimes."
    • Goofs
      According to Roddy Piper on his podcast, Mr. T botched the finish of their match by completely missing what was supposed to be a knockout punch on Piper, who sold as planned by flying through the ropes to the outside, despite the punch not connecting at all. Having to improvise a new finish on the spot, an angry Hot Rod flung his corner stool at Mr. T, hitting the shocked "A-Team" actor with full force.
    • Quotes

      Jesse 'The Body' Ventura: [During the Hulk Hogan/King Kong Bundy steel cage match, after Bundy did it to him, Hogan decides to use the medical tape ripped off him to choke out Bundy] Ahhhhhhh! What do you think of your champion now?

      Lord Alfred Hayes: Well, as I always say, "What's good for the goose is good for the gander."

      Jesse 'The Body' Ventura: Yeah, I figured an Englishman like you would say that.

      The DVD changed some of the theme songs for some wrestlers, including Uncle Elmer and Corporal Kirchner, due to copyright issues.
