It's really interesting to hear Gorilla Monsoon calling a sneak attack getting "Pearl Harbored" without even any hesitation.

Was Wrestlemania WWE's first ever live broadcast closed circuit event?

I think Wrestling Classic was first, but I'm no historian.

That was the norm up until the mid-90s at least.

Will they play 'Queen - Another one bites the dust' for Junkyard Dog? will they gently caress

You're right. I looked it up right after posting. Should have done that in the opposite order.

and yes at the actual event JYD did come out to queen, Hogan and Mr T also came out to Eye of the tiger which I will bet is overdubbed with Real American

It was his entrance music in Legends of Wrestlemania, so I'm not surprised they applied it retroactively.

Why is Lord Alfred holding a Wrestlemania program? Is he selling them in-between check-ins from the announce desk?

I wonder if having all these old matches and stuff easily visible will make Current WWE step up their matches and commentary any so as not to look bad by comparison.
