10 Most Crowd-Pleasing Victories In WWE History
10. Here Comes The Ax And Here Comes The Smasher (1990)
Fire up the WWE Network app on your Playstation 4 or Roku streaming stick and take a listen to the reaction when Demolition enters the historic Skydome in Toronto for their WWE Tag Team Championship match against Andre the Giant and Haku, known collectively as The Colossal Connection.
Better yet, skip through the otherwise nondescript match and take another listen, this time to Ax and Smash's victory over their massive opposition.
The outcome blows the roof off of the historic building, igniting one of the biggest pops of the entire broadcast. That is a testament to the work WWE had done in building Demolition into an overwhelming fan-favourite.
It is also proof positive of the audience's desire to see the bruising twosome reclaim their position atop the tag team mountain.
After watching as Ax and Smash had the titles robbed from them, once again by a Bobby Heenan-managed tag team, fans rejoiced as the duo recaptured what they never should have lost in the first place.
It was the last major championship victory for Demolition, who turned heel later in the year and were dismantled by the spring of 1991.
