10 Fascinating WWE WrestleMania 7 Facts
3. It Marked Demolition's Final Televised Match
Demolition Ax was long gone from the company, and the Demolition name lived on with Smash and 26-year-old powerhouse Brian Adams as Crush. With the Legion of Doom on board, the writing was on the wall for the newer Demolition, who faded away quickly enough.
While it would've made sense to have Animal and Hawk polish off their natural enemies at Mania, Smash and Crush were instead fed to Genichiro Tenryu and Koji Kitao, representing WWE's new Japanese affiliate Super World Sports (SWS), in a match more notable for Bobby Heenan's jokes than anything else.
From there, Demolition participated in tours of Japan and the UK, but were never again seen on WWE TV as a tandem. Crush would vanish for a year, while Smash soldiered on as a singles wrestler deep into the summer of 1991 before being repackaged as Repo Man.
