WWE: 10 Most Memorable Midget Matches

2. Hillbilly Jim, Little Beaver, and The Haiti Kid vs. King Kong Bundy, Little Tokyo, and Lord Littlebrook

WrestleMania 3 is known for two matches in particular: Hulk Hogan versus Andre The Giant, and Ricky Steamboat versus Randy Savage. But there were more than just those two matches on the card that night, and one of the early matches featured a six man €œmixed€ tag match where one wrestler and two midgets faced another wrestler and two midgets. And while King Kong Bundy and Hillbilly Jim are legendary wrestlers in their own right, the little people who joined them in the match were also some of the biggest names in midget wrestling. One in particular, Little Beaver was a Hall of Fame status midget wrestler on par with the likes of Sky Low Low back in the 60s and 70s. The comedy matches that midget wrestlers tend to involve themselves with originated with Little Beaver, and there was plenty of comedy to be seen during their match at WrestleMania 3. But the jokes came to a sudden end when Bundy did the unthinkable and squished Little Beaver with an elbow drop leading to a disqualification. This attack would cause Beaver to retire from professional wrestling. WrestleMania 3 was full of highlights, and even the midget wrestlers got their moment on the grandest stage of them all.
