Who'd have thought that The Ultimate Warrior taking on King of the Ring winner "Macho King" Randy Savage at WrestleMania VII would be remembered for somebody that wasn't even in the match?

Savage was being managed by Sensational Sherri; the two had accidentally cost Warrior his WWE Championship and he wanted revenge. The newly christened "Macho King" had to put his career on the line too, because Vince McMahon thought he was too old... just don't ask.

Anyway, Savage lost and had to hang up his boots. Miss Elizabeth had been seen in the crowd during the match, so all eyes were on her when Sherri started attacking Randy after the bell. Elizabeth and Savage had separated after Hulk Hogan got between them, but fans were still desperate to see them get back together.

Then it happened: the moment everybody had been waiting for.

Elizabeth got in the ring and fought off Sherri to thunderous applause from the fans in attendance.

The crowd was as shocked as the "Macho Man"; when the two embraced and Savage put Elizabeth on her shoulders it was magical. Their wedding in the ring at SummerSlam 1991 had meant to much to fans, so to see them back together was the perfect ending for the story.

Everybody thought Savage was genuinely retiring, so reuniting the WWE Universe's favourite couple was a wonderful and emotional way of saying farewell to a legend.

When I'm not trying my hardest to visit all 50 U.S. states, I'm listening to music from the 80s, watching TV from the 90s, and reminiscing about growing up in the 00s. I'm currently living in Melbourne, Australia so WWE premium live events are on Sunday afternoons for me; the absolute dream.
