Whoa...

The thrid best WrestleMania ever only edged out by WrestleMania X and WrestleMania X-7. The Match of the night was of course Ricky Steamboat vs. Randy Savage(It is alos considered the greatest match in North America until 1989 thanks to Steamboat again! He really is a god). Hogan vs. Andre was pretty bad but WHO CARES? This IS the greatest match in North America not because of the star ratings, but because of the magic involved with it because you were hoping Hogan would win.

Highly Recommended!

Brilliant

These WERE the days for the WWF. It's 1987, the absolute height of Hulkamania and there's 93,000 VERY loud fans cheering and booing in all the right places. Perfect. Randy Savage vs Rick Steamboat is the finest 15 minutes of your life, it's a truly great match. Elsewhere, the matches aren't all great, but the sense of history and fun carry them all through. A real wrestling classic, up there with WrestleMania 10 as a 100% great event.

Masterclass

Ricky the dragon 🐉 steamboat v Macho man Randy Savage sets the standard for what could be possible in a wrestling 🤼‍♀️ match add to that Hulk Hogan and Andre the giant show how the tension can reach fever pitch without ever throwing a punch 🥊 The two men standing toe to toe in the ring will forever be one of the most iconic wrestling pictures need I say more ..... this is wrestlemania 3

A Classic (historiclly speaking)

Loved by virtually everyone, this show only has a couple of highlights. The 93,000 fans is truly something speical, and Hogan vs Andre is leagendary (although the match is HORRIBLE). Savage vs Steamboat is a lil overrated, but is still great. Not much else on this one though. The rest of the show is a bunch of weak matches. Still, the first *good* Wrestlemania.

Alternate versions
The DVD replaced some of the theme songs for some wrestlers. This was done due to song rights. KoKo B Ware Piledriver which would later become his theme song from 1987-1989. Ricky The Dragon Steamboat Hillbilly Jim Don't go Messing with a Country Boy replaced with generic music.
