    The Most Anticipated Match Until That Point

    Usually, the main event of any major wrestling event was "babyface" (good guy) vs. "heel" (bad guy). Hulk Hogan vs. Andre the Giant would be a big example of such a main event. With Wrestlemania VI, however, two incredibly popular wrestlers at the time in Hogan & the Ultimate Warrior put their respective belts on the line in a main event that split the crowd in half in terms of cheering support. Good guy vs good guy!

    Of course, an event is not made by its main event alone, and this is a great wrestling card that earns its 5-star rating. I won't go into detail on every match here, but here are some of the highlights:

    -Mr. Perfect continuing his great brand of wrestling against Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake. -The Hart Foundation taking on The Bolsheviks with some hilarious pre-match comedy featuring Steve Allen. -An interesting semi-heel turn from newly-branded "Macho King" Randy Savage by pairing up with Sensational Sherri instead of the traditional Elizabeth. -Any Big Boss Man match (this time vs. Akeem) is usually pretty entertaining because he is such a great character.

    There are no terrible matches in this entire event. They are all entertaining in some facet or another. The commentary from Gorilla Monsoon & Jesse "The Body" Ventura helps set the perfect tone once again.

    Then, "Hulk vs. Warrior" blows the lid off! This was one of the most anticipated battles of all- time, and it pretty much lives up to the billing. Neither big man is a particularly talented wrestler, but the hype is just so big and each man plays his part perfectly.

    This is the best Wrestlemania in the series so far, just ahead of the tournament from W4.

    EXPLOSIVE EVENT

    This event ranks right up there with WrestleMania's I, III and X as a truly spectacular event with a brilliant main event and an awesome undercard.

    This event took place in April 1990 and for the first time in WrestleMania history two good guys fought for the belt. Hogan and the Warrior battled in an explosive match for over twenty minutes in a match that could have gone either way. Those two guys were sweating at the end of the match. And who can forget the crowd? Just like WrestleMania III where Andre the Giant fought Hogan the crowd cheered like they were crazy. The electricity in the building was amazing as Hogan and the Warrior tore into each other.

    If the main event isn't enough for you there were plenty of other great matches such as The Rockers VS The Orient Express, Tito Santana VS The Barbarian, Roddy Piper VS Bad News Brown and many other great matches. My favourite match on the undercard pitted tag team champions Demolition VS The Colossal Connection.

    A smashing event!

    Warrior vs Hogan need I say more?

    Ok I will say more, this goes down in wrestling history as the first super match, it was the current WWF Champion Hulk Hogan vs the WWF intercontinental champion The Ultimate Warrior, it was a unification match of sorts. What made this match so special was the fact that there was no 'bad guy' both were huge fan favourites and one of the few times when no one knew who was going to win, this made for a unique atmosphere with the crowd 50/50 on who they wanted win (I was a little warrior, not a hulkamaniac). Of course now we know that the Warrior beat Hogan, much to my delight.

    Everyone thought that this would be the last time we saw Hogan hold the WWF Chamionship and that The Ultimate Warrior would go on to dominate wrestling. For one reason or another this never happened and a mere six months later Hogan was the champ again. This match will also be remembered as one of the very few times Hulk Hogan jobbed (lost) to someone.

    Anyway this main event will go down as one fo the great matches of all time, maybe not for the quality but because of how important it was. I would rank it right up there with other main event Wrestlemania matches like Bret Hart vs Shawn Micheals, Steve Austin vs Shawn Micheals and the second Austin vs Rock match. I would recommend buying this video to anyone for the plain reason of the main event.

    Wrestlemania perfection

    The Sky Dome ready the crowd is jumping can they deliver. A perfect mania needs a perfect team on Commentary Monsoon and Jesse always a perfect Tag team on The mics. The Bird v The Model opening the night. Tag team titles on the line next demolition against haku and Andre This match delivers a giant surprise. Hurcules to try to stop an Earthquake in Match three. Brutus mr perfect could be a close shave . Some good wrestling. Hot Rod hoping to getting some good news from Bad News Brown this ones going to be a fight Danny Davis Referees. Tito Barbarian average match. King & Queen facing the common man and women If this match doesn't make you smile and laugh I don't know what will . This ones a lot of fun wrestling not taking it self to seriously and the crowd seems to love it. Appearances by some legends to follow Shawn Michaels million dollar man Jack the snake boss man snuka Rude Greg valentine and many more before title v title The intercontinental champion Ultimate warrior & world champion Hulk Hogan one of the most iconic images of all time is these two men standing toe to toe . the anticipation is bursting through the arena everyone had there side we all believed in one or the other. Has tried to be downplayed over the years but don't be fooled. both men at the peak of there powers this is near perfect match everything you want from wrestling.story power recovery defining the odds to come back when there nothing left. The world watched on and they delivered.

    wwE manage to edit history

    I was at Wrestlemania VI in Toronto as a 10 year old, and the event I saw then was pretty different from what I saw on the Wrestlemania Collection DVD I just watched. I don't understand how the wwE doesn't have the rights to some of the old music, since most of those songs were created by the WWF they shouldn't have to worry about the licensing and royalty fees that prevent shows like SNL from releasing season sets. Its pretty stupid to whine about, but for me hearing Demolition come out to their theme music at a Wrestlemania in person was a memory that I never forgot, and it didn't exist on this DVD. What is the point of them even owning the rights to this huge library of video if they have to edit it so drastically to use it?

    • Trivia
      Originally, WWF owner Vince McMahon wanted the main event to be Hulk Hogan vs. Zeus for the WWF Championship. According to Tom Lister Jr., these plans were nixed when Hogan refused to drop the title to Zeus, thus causing The Ultimate Warrior to be placed into the main event slot with Hogan instead.
    • Quotes

      Jesse Ventura: Sean Connery was named "Sexiest Man in the World," and he has my hairstyle.

      Gorilla Monsoon: I know that.

      Jesse Ventura: You know how I can't miss in Hollywood, Gorilla? I got Paul Newman's eyes, I got Kirk Douglas's chin, and Robert Duvall's haircut. How can I lose?

      Gorilla Monsoon: But what do you have of your own, Jess?

      Jesse Ventura: [long pause] ... And here comes Brutus.

    • Alternate versions
      The DVD version edited out any reference to "WWF". The DVD version also replaced the entrance themes for a number of wrestlers. This was likely done because of song rights. They were:
      • Koko B. Ware: "Bird" replaced with "Piledriver", which was his theme from 1987 to 1989.
      • Dusty Rhodes: "American Dream" replaced with the theme to Wheel of Fortune (1988).
      • Demolition (Ax and Smash)
      • The Orient Express (Sato and Tanaka)
      • Big Boss Man: "Hard Time" replaced with the song that eventually became his music when he returned in 1998 to 2002.
      • Akeem: "Jive Soul Bro" replaced with generic music.
