It was the Heavyweight Championship win heard around the world! The explosion of Mega Powers fades into the background as Ultimate Warrior embarks on a campaign to claim double gold! He put his Intercontinental Championship up against the WWF title of Royal Rumble winner Hulk Hogan! A main event that only Wrestlemania VI could possibly hold!
The Ultimate Warrior win elevates his star, but he still can't quite crack the Top 10 rankings. Hulk Hogan misses his opportunity - joining the winners list with long reigning #1 Randy Savage. The Macho King couldn't claim the mixed tag win against Dusty Rhodes & Sapphire, even with Queen Sensational Sherri on his side!
Tag team pursuits feature top to bottom on the swollen 14 match card! Demolition conclude their chase of tag team gold, cashing in against The Colossal Connection of a declining Andre the Giant & Haku. A win by Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart bumps The Hart Foundation up to #3 off the back of the (PPV) winless Bolsheviks. They're one step ahead of Rockers Shawn Michaels & Marty Jannetty, who went down to the PPV debuting Oriental Express.
A stacked, memorable Wrestlemania card offers a glimpse of things to come, but fails to move the needle in any startling way. With WWF quiet until the Summer, the NWA once again have clear rights to dominate the PPV rankings! Capital Combat is the name of their May stopgap PPV.
