WrestleMania V: The Mega Powers Explode

In 1989, the World Wrestling Federation (now WWE) produced the fifth annual professional wrestling pay-per-view event known as WrestleMania V. The event took place on April 2nd at the Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and it was a historic occasion that showcased one of the most highly anticipated matches in the history of professional wrestling.

The Main Event

The main event of WrestleMania V was a showdown between two of the biggest stars in the industry: Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage. The two had been friends and tag team partners for months leading up to the match, but tensions began to rise between them over the jealousy of Miss Elizabeth, Savage’s valet and real-life wife.

The match was an intense battle between two of the top wrestlers in the industry. Hogan used his signature moves, including the Big Boot and the Leg Drop, to try to take down Savage, but the Macho Man was a skilled wrestler with a vast array of moves at his disposal. The match ended when Hogan pinned Savage after hitting him with the Leg Drop, winning the WWF World Heavyweight Championship for the second time in his career.

The Mega Powers, as Hogan and Savage were known, had exploded, and the wrestling world would never be the same again.

Other Matches

WrestleMania V featured several other memorable matches, including a Intercontinental Championship match between the Ultimate Warrior and Rick Rude. The match was a classic, with both wrestlers putting on an incredible display of athleticism and skill. In the end, the Ultimate Warrior emerged victorious, winning his first Intercontinental Championship.

Another notable match at WrestleMania V was a Tag Team Championship match between Demolition and the Powers of Pain. Demolition, consisting of Ax and Smash, had been dominating the tag team division for months leading up to the match. The Powers of Pain, consisting of the Warlord and the Barbarian, were determined to take the titles away from Demolition.

The match was a brutal affair, with both teams taking a beating. In the end, Demolition emerged victorious, retaining their Tag Team Championship titles.

Conclusion

WrestleMania V was a historic event that featured one of the most anticipated matches in wrestling history. The main event between Hogan and Savage was a spectacle that drew in fans from around the world. The Intercontinental Championship match between the Ultimate Warrior and Rick Rude was a classic display of athleticism and skill, and the Tag Team Championship match between Demolition and the Powers of Pain was a brutal affair that showcased the intensity of professional wrestling.

The event marked a turning point in the industry, with the Mega Powers exploding and setting the stage for future WrestleMania events.
