After 22 minutes, Hogan missed a leg drop, and Warrior countered with a splash. Warrior pinned Hogan clean for the victory (Hogan still kicked out after the three count), the only time in Hogan’s first WWF tenure he would lose without interference. A sad-looking Hogan walked around ringside, picked up his WWF Championship, climbed into the ring, and presented Warrior with the belt. They hugged it out and Hogan raised Warrior’s arm. Hogan left Warrior to celebrate with both championships, as Wrestlemania VI came to a close. The fans loved every minute of it.
Conclusion – Wrestlemania VI failed to deliver a good mid-card, many of the good matches were tainted with screwy finishes. The Hart Foundation, Savage, and Piper were wasted in the booking. I enjoyed the Andre face turn, the return of Elizabeth, and Roberts vs DiBiase. They had many match possibilities, Hart Foundation vs The Rockers would have been sweet. Mr Perfect vs Piper also.
You could see the talent, but they were paired up poorly. The main event is the reason to watch, just for the atmosphere. It’s hard to describe how excited the fans were. I would like to end this article by praising the loud Canadian fans at the SkyDome, because without them, this Wrestlemania would have been one to forget. I enjoyed the show overall, and I would recommend it to any Ultimate Warrior fan.
