WrestleMania IV (1988)

Edit this Page

The fourth annual WrestleMania was held at Trump Plaza in Atlantic City, New Jersey and featured a 14 man tournament for the WWF Championship.
Quote: Jesse 'The Body' Ventura

That's kinda like talking to the third base coach before you lay down the bunt, Uecker. Then again, in your case, Ueck, you gotta make contact with the ball.

WWE Championship Tournament

After André the Giant defeated Hulk Hogan for the WWE Championship at The Main Event I, he immediately sold the championship to Ted DiBiase for a large sum of money. However, WWE President Jack Tunney quickly vacated the title and created a 14-man tournament at WrestleMania IV to determine a new champion.
