10 Weirdest WWE WrestleMania Matches Of All Time

9. Roddy Piper Vs. Bad News Brown - WrestleMania VI

This was another example of a lacklustre WrestleMania showdown, ending in a disappointing double-countout after six minutes or so. However, the real reason Roddy Piper vs. Bad News Brown is regarded as one of the most bizarre matches in 'Mania history is to do with Hot Rod's appearance. Inexplicably, the Hall of Famer decided to wrestle the match (and cut a typically raucous pre-match promo) half-covered in black paint. It was largely met with bafflement from the 1990 crowd - although the outrage such a stunt would spark today doesn't bear thinking about, particularly from a PR point of view. In a 2012 interview, Piper revealed: 'So, I had the match. I came back and the stuff they had painted me with, Vince had made special. So, when I broke a sweat, it wouldn't come off'. Apparently the paint took about a month (and several intense sauna sessions) to come off. Weird, weird, weird...
