Was awesome. It is probably my favorite. Why can't they book an event like that anymore. There were like 5 main events on the show. Hogan pretty much ends Desert Storm by beating Slaughter(lol), Warrior/Savage is incredible, Roberts/Martel is great, Nastys/Hart Foundation is great, Bulldog and Warlord have a great match without doing more than 4 moves, and the Rockers Orient Express match was a great opener. What happened to great stuff like this?

Don't forget Mr. Perfect vs The Big Bossman, that was one I thoroughly enjoyed, we even got Andre in that match.

Wrestlemania 7 was the first ppv I ever saw and I've been a wrestling fan since. I wouldn't say it was an awesome show looking back now. But it will always be in my top 10 of favorite wrestlemanias of all time just because it was my first.

and the Rockers Orient Express match was a great opener. Not to nitpick, but the Rockers wrestled Haku & the Barbarian in the opener of WM7. Rockers/Orient Express was at WM6. |

Perhaps he was thinking of Royal Rumble 1991 just before WM7 that was Rockers v Orient Express too

In my opinion WM 7 is underrated. I always think of WM 6 and 8 but kind of forget about 7 which is odd considering some of those awesome classic matches you mentioned.

I was not that impressed with WM7. Warrior vs. Savage was an amazing match and Rockers vs. Haku/Barbarian was very good. The other matches were decent, but not that great.

Yeah seven is very underrated, I watched recently and the whole line up was solid from start to finish, you can't say that about todays events. |

Yeah, WrestleMania VII was good. I enjoyed it and I thought Alex Trebek did a pretty decent job as guest ring announcer that evening.

I always thought Hart Foundation/Nasty Boys was terrible. Not either teams finest work.
Aside from that, yeah, the whole event was brilliant. Every match either had an entertaining twist to it, was hyped up as hell, or was just a solid match, period.

I remember that you could see Jake's fingers clear as day through his "blindfold" when he was putting it on.

yea it was pretty damn good, but could u imagine if it was at the la colisseum like they planned for it to be. that would have been insane - they'd be talking about that instead of wrestlemania 9 for the coolest concept

I always liked WM 7. Some real jewels the rest was decent to good.
Am I the only that enjoys matches that are announced but they have no story or feud for them? Just two guys wrestling, showing off their main spots and putting on a decent match (I.E. Earthquake vs. Valentine, etc)

well i would agree on all of it except for Roberts & Martel. That wouldve been great if they didnt have the blind storyline holding it back That was not one of the best matches ever... but the psychology was great. The crowd was amazing, and that match showed how well Roberts could control them... Blindfold matches in large are crap, but that one was great. I loved the whole event, and may have to watch it later on. |

Hogan/Slaughter has a textbook example of blading. It's done very well if you're not looking for it. Every step is there, all the way to the ref putting the blade into his pocket.

Could you imagine 100,000 fans, outdoor, with the Roman theme again? |
