4. Warrior Returns At Wrestlemania VIII
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN-rUaGR_u0 This was another one that floored me at the time, because there had been no inkling of Warrior returned from self-imposed exile after he walked out on the promotion in 1991. In fact, the return was so shocking that people online floated theories for years afterwards that Warriors drastically altered appearance was due to the death of the original and replacement by a lookalike. This of course is ridiculous, because Vince wouldnt have the budget for that kind of thing in 1992, what with the steroid trials going on and stuff. Dont people know how much a good cloning goes for on the black market? Anyway, 1992 was actually a pretty good stretch for Warrior, as he had a forgotten classic with Randy Savage at Summerslam 92 before flaking out on them again and leaving before Survivor Series for whatever reason he came up with that time. Still, his return made for a memorable end to Wrestlemania VIII and definitely put the show in the win column overall.
