			Fuck.  Every single person involved in that mixed tag has passed away.  Dusty Rhodes, Randy Savage, Sapphire, Sherri Martel, and Miss Elizabeth.    |

			Big Bossman sporting a confederate flag on his cop uniform.  Making me super uncomfortable, even though it's from 1990.

			...this isn't the real Rick Rude theme song, but it's VERY similar.  Please tell me that he just didn't have that theme yet by WM6 and it's not edited off the Network.

			I wonder if Undertaker and Paul Bearer actually had an understood backstory for the urn, or if it was just like "yo, this urn is your power, k?" and he was like "tight, leggo".

			Highlights of Savage smashing the scepter over Warrior's head in the title match against Slaughter.  I remember being completely crestfallen watching that as a kid.  That dastardly Macho King.    |

			Crazy foreshadowing: At Wrestlemania 7 in a post match interview with the Undertaker after his very first Wrestlemania victory, Regis Philbin (yes, seriously) jokingly declares that 'this man proves that absolutely NOTHING lasts forever' when introducing the Undertaker. Kinda crazy considering that was the genesis of the streak, unbeknownst to anyone at the time. |

			Also, a lot of blatant racism/sexism/xenophobia running rampant throughout the fed at the time.  Mind blowing to hear now.

			I just watched Big Bossman do that corner slide/re-enter/clothesline spot in 1991.  I see who Baron Corbin is molding himself after, the more I watch this match.

			They didn't have the theme song after Ax left. Here comes the Ax wouldn't make sense when it was Smash and Crush. It's not an edit or at least they didn't edit out the Derringer theme song.

			Resuming my Mania skims at 7 from the DiBiase/Virgil match. I really hope that Piper's knee injury at the time was legit, because it would have made WAY more sense to have Dibiase wrestle Virgil at the Royal Rumble and then Piper at Wrestlemania. Cool to see the genesis of the Sherri/MDM relationship though, especially considering how she split from Savage earlier. |

			I went to the refrigerator during the entrances for The Mountie and Tito Santana and walked back to the conclusion of the match.  What a Wrestlemania moment.
