WrestleMania has always been infatuated with celebrities, a love-in dating all the way back to the inaugural event in 1985. Although WWE are often criticised for designing their annual spectacular with mainstream exposure in mind (rather than rewarding hardcore fans that stick with the product all year round), this is far form a modern trend.

WrestleMania I saw Hulk Hogan team with Mr. T, defeating Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff in a highly significant (if rather sloppy) main event.
