My favorite moment was WrestleMania III –
Roddy Piper’s retirement match (and Adrian Adonis’ last PPV).
Ricky Steamboat vs. Randy Savage (easily match of the year).
The incredible commentating team of the late, great Gorilla Monsoon, Jesse Ventura, and Bobby Heenan.
The legendary Hulk Hogan / Andre feud.
The six-man tag match between the British Bulldogs/Tito Santana vs. the Dream Team/Danny Davis (although you could see Dynamite talking a good bit to Bret during the match).
Indoor attendance record of 93,173 in Detroit’s Ponitac Silverdome. The Pope was there a short time later and only drew about 60,000. WrestleMania outdrew the Pope!
This WM marked what I consider to be pro wrestling’s greatest peak of the 80’s. The industry would not experience a boom like this until 10 years later with the birth of the “Attitude Era” of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Rock, etc.
