after what is traditionally seen as a mixed bag of a WrestleMania show, the spotlight was eventually turned to the WWF's golden boy, Hulk Hogan and his ongoing battle with the Heenan Family, this time in the shape of King Kong Bundy.

Bundy had been orchestrating several attacks on the Hulkster in the lead up to the show, and it was decided that the two must face one on one for the WWF Championship match inside the steel cage.

While the match itself is not one of the more instantly memorable WrestleMania main events of all time, it did mark the first, and surprisingly only, occasion in which the steel cage stipulation has been used at Mania, not counting Hell in a Cell.

It was also the perfect way to round off such a long and convoluted card. If there was one thing Vince would have wanted from his WrestleMania 2 show it would have been the sight of the Hulkster battling it out in the main event and ultimately triumphing over evil.

Hogan and Bundy did some pretty decent business together during this time but it was fairly clear even then that the latter was no more than a holding piece until more worthy opponents could be thrown at the champion.

That being said, it was still a great time to be a wrestling fan, particularly if you were a self-confessed Hulkamaniac.
