10 Wrestling Facts We Didn’t Know Last Week (August 2)
2. Bruce Prichard's XXX WrestleMania VI Story
The above wide shot shows the massive Toronto SkyDome during WrestleMania VI. It's an iconic picture, one taken during the height of WWF hysteria before a lull in the 90s, and it's still a breathtaking visual to this day. Things might've been even more stirring had the company not taken some precautions pre-event.
There's a reason why the WWF booked out every hotel room suite overlooking the SkyDome venue they could.
On his podcast, Bruce Prichard revealed that a couple had earlier been shown having sex on camera during a baseball game played in the dome. Vince McMahon was concerned lightning would strike twice, so he instructed his staff to book out every room that could peer into the venue just on the off chance some kinky lovers fancied replicating the incident.
Prichard himself stayed in one of the suites. He ignored co-host Conrad Thompson's questions about whether or not he got 'funky' with anyone the night before 'Mania and said it was done as a precautionary measure to appease sponsors buying into the WWF's child-friendly image.
