10 Things You Probably Never Knew About WrestleMania 2


WWF Wrestlemania 2 – Hulk Hogan vs King Kong… by Yosihait23

5. The Bundy Blade Job

In the main event in the big blue awkward cage between Hulk Hogan and King Kong Bundy, you can clearly see one of the most poorly covered up blade jobs by a wrestler in the main event in the history of pro wrestling.

Being in a cage and looking for revenge, Hogan midway through the bout threw Bundy into the cage, and the huge brawler went down in a heap. With his manager Bobby Heenan holding his head to cover up what was happening, Bundy proceeded to take out a blade (likely a razor blade) and put a slit in his huge forehead.

The cut looked cool, but you can see Bundy holding the blade as Hogan picks up his head and starts punching the cut to draw even more blood.

Then as Bundy stumbles to the corner, with a shot from the top of the cage, you can see him put the blade into one of the straps of his right singlet of his ring attire. It was absurd that it was not more well thought out, and what likely should have happened was Bundy should have slid the blade out to Heenan, or left it on the mat for the HOF manager to pick up.

Whatever the case, it was another element of the oddly planned out main event that didn’t look all that well on TV.

    I actually knew this because I had 2 record from Showtime. I accidentally recorded over it but still had a little bit with showtime symbol on it.
