2. Bam Bam Bigelow Vs. Lawrence Taylor - WrestleMania XI
WWE.comCelebrity and athlete involvement is nothing new to WrestleMania. The worlds have been intertwined ever since the very first event, which saw Cyndi Lauper and Mr. T both heavily involved. It's certainly not unusual to see a mainstream figure appear in a 'Mania match. But to see an NFL megastar main event the show? In a singles match? That still seems unheard of, even today. In fairness to Lawrence Taylor (yes, the two time SuperBowl Champion and NFL Hall of Famer), he turned in a performance often considered one of the best ever by a non-wrestler. Still, the fact that a WrestleMania was main evented by a pro footballer and a midcarder can't be overlooked. Given its position on the card, it's maybe the strangest match-up in 'Mania history. Imagine Ryback vs. Ray Lewis and you might be somewhere in the ballpark.
