4. Perfect End

Outside of Royal Rumble eliminations, nobody had beaten Mr Perfect - "Nobody" - since his first outing with the gimmick in 1988. It spoke to how much emphasis they were about to place on both men that this WrestleMania scorcher went Brutus Beefcake's way.

The Barber was en route to Intercontinental Title glory (sound familiar?) before a devastating parasailing accident destroyed his push, his WWE in-ring career and the bones in his face.

Perfect, meanwhile, was an elite athlete in a time with few kicking around. Sacrificing his perfect record here wasn't done in vain - he'd win the tournament the vacated secondary strap just weeks later.
