WrestleMania 2, held on April 7, 1986, shattered tradition in more ways than one. Unlike its predecessor and future installments, this unique event wasn't confined to a single location. Instead, wrestling fans in three cities –“ Uniondale, New York, Rosemont, Illinois, and Los Angeles, California –“ witnessed a spectacle spread across three venues simultaneously.

Each venue boasted a stacked card featuring four exciting matches, bringing the total to a whopping 12 bouts for WrestleMania 2. The main event in Uniondale wasn't your typical wrestling clash. It was a highly anticipated boxing match between pop-culture icon Mr. T and the outspoken "Rowdy" Roddy Piper.

Meanwhile, in Chicago, the energy crackled as WWF Tag Team Champions The Dream Team defended their titles against the high-flying British Bulldogs. But the biggest fight of the night arguably went down in Los Angeles. There, the legendary Hulk Hogan, the WWF World Heavyweight Champion, stepped into a steel cage to battle the monstrous King Kong Bundy in a brutal showdown.

WrestleMania 2 wasn't just about headline grabbers. The undercard in Uniondale also saw "Macho Man" Randy Savage retain his Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship against the unpredictable George "The Animal" Steele. In Chicago, a 20-man battle royal featuring both WWF wr

The opening match at WrestleMania 2 in New York's Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum saw a heated battle between "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff and "The Magnificent" Don Muraco. The tension between the two wrestlers was evident from the start, and the crowd was electric with anticipation.

Early on, Orndorff gained the upper hand with a powerful body slam on Muraco. As the crowd roared and Orndorff celebrated his dominance, a moment of controversy erupted. In a regrettable move, Orndorff directed a disrespectful gesture towards his manager Mr. Fuji. This action, widely considered offensive, has since been edited out of most commercially available versions of the match.

Despite the controversy, the fight continued with both wrestlers showcasing their fighting spirit. The intensity reached a fever pitch, ultimately leading to a double countout finish.

The Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship was on the line in the second contest at WrestleMania 2's New York venue. The flamboyant "Macho Man" Randy Savage, accompanied by his real-life wife Miss Elizabeth, defended his title against the unpredictable "Animal" George Steele.

The clash between these contrasting styles proved to be a memorable one. Steele, known for his unorthodox tactics and feral aggression, surprised the crowd by becoming the first wrestler to ever kick out of Savage's signature flying elbow drop.

Despite Steele's impressive feat, Savage managed to retain his title with a cunning maneuver. He pinned Steele with a quick roll-up, but in a controversial move, used the ropes for leverage to secure the victory.

The third match at the Coliseum was a brawl between Jake Roberts and George Wells. Roberts crushed Wells with his finishing move to win the match. After the match, Roberts let his pet snake loose on the freaked-out Wells.

The main event at the show was a boxing fight between Mr. T and Rowdy Roddy Piper. Mr. T had boxing champ Joe Frazier in his corner, while Piper had boxing coach Lou Duva in his corner. Piper got thrown out for shoving Mr. T to the ground really hard in the fourth round. It lasted just over a minute into the round.

The very first fight at WrestleMania 2 in Chicago was for the women's championship belt. Wrestlers Fabulous Moolah and Velvet McIntyre battled it out. McIntyre tried to jump on Moolah from the top rope, but Moolah dodged her and McIntyre missed. Moolah saw her chance and slammed McIntyre to the mat to win the match and keep her champion title.

The fight after the women's championship was a special kind of match. Corporal Kirchner and Nikolai Volkoff faced off, with Volkoff having his buddy Freddie Blassie in his corner to help out. During the fight, Blassie tossed his walking stick to Volkoff, but Kirchner snagged it instead. He then used the stick to whack Volkoff and pin him down to win the match.

The third match was a big brawl with 20 wrestlers and football players. Some of the wrestlers were Andre the Giant, The Hart Foundation guys (Bret Hart and Jim Neidhart), and Hillbilly Jim. Some of the football players were Jimbo Covert, Bill Fralic, and William "The Refrigerator" Perry. In the end, Andre the Giant was the only wrestler left standing, and he won the match.

The last fight at WrestleMania 2 was for the tag team championship belts. The British Bulldogs (Davey Boy Smith and Dynamite Kid) faced off against The Dream Team (Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake). The Bulldogs even had Ozzy Osbourne, the singer from Black Sabbath, and Lou Albano helping them out! They brawled for about 13 minutes before Smith shoved Valentine into the corner. Valentine accidentally bumped heads with Dynamite Kid, who went down. Smith then pinned Valentine to win the championship belts and beat the Dream Team after they held the title for seven months.

The first match in Los Angeles was a fight between Ricky Steamboat and Hercules. Hercules tried to jump on Steamboat from the top rope but messed up. Steamboat then jumped on Hercules and pinned him to win the match.

The second match in Los Angeles was between Adrian Adonis and Uncle Elmer. Adonis had Jimmy Hart in his corner to help him out. Adonis won the match by jumping on Uncle Elmer with his head.

The third match in Los Angeles was a tag team brawl between The Funk Brothers (Hoss and Terry Funk) and Junkyard Dog and Tito Santana. Jimmy Hart helped out the Funks by creating a distraction for the referee. Then, Hart gave Terry Funk a megaphone, which he used to whack Junkyard Dog before pinning him for the win.

The biggest fight of WrestleMania 2 in Los Angeles was for the world championship title! Hulk Hogan had to defend his belt in a steel cage match against King Kong Bundy. Hogan's ribs were all bandaged up because Bundy had beat him up a few weeks before.

Bundy started the fight by ripping the bandages off Hogan's ribs. But Hogan wouldn't give up! He slammed Bundy's head against the cage and tried to lift him up for a slam, but missed. Bundy then hit Hogan with a bunch of moves, trying to win. Hogan wouldn't stay down though, and got all fired up. He slammed Bundy to the mat and then jumped on him from the top rope. He climbed to the top of the cage to win, but Bundy grabbed his legs. Hogan kicked Bundy off and climbed over the cage to the ground, winning the match and keeping his championship title! After the fight, Hogan saw Bundy's manager Heenan inside the cage. He grabbed Heenan and smashed his head into the cage before hitting him low outside the cage.
