So I recently uncovered an
old thread that was posted on here almost three years ago, and was last updated two years ago. Being quite a big wrestling fan myself, and a fan of these list threads, and collaborative threads I thought it'd be a unique idea to do this. So the idea is we post the name of champion whom won the belt, what event and its date, who they beat it for, and even the gimmick or stipulation of the match. We can go until the Summerslam of this year (2017 at the latest, and of course go further depending on how big the thread gets).
Here is a link of all WWE/F events here.
But I kinda want to add a stipulation for the first list. Instead of just a simple; everyone is an option, how about this...
Challenge: Make a list of WWE/F Champions from Wrestlemania I to Summerlsam (2017) without using wrestlers who have won the WWE/F Championship. ie; No Hogan, Hart, Michaels, or Cena.
- "The Texas Warrior" Kerry Von Erich def. Rowdy Roddy Piper in a Single Match at WrestleMania I, March 31, 1985, at Madison Square Garden in New York City, New York [1]
[1] WCCW star Kerry Von Erich was snatched up for his mass popularity in the south, and for his physique and charisma. But, it also helped that he had gotten a role in the upcoming Stallone film; Rocky IV. The Texas Warrior casted as the role as the foil in the film as Soviet boxer Ivan Drago. Von Erich got his role with the help of fellow friend of the Von Erich clan Terry Funk, whom helped the future WWF Champion with his acting chops, and his connections with Stallone helped get him the role. Stallone even made a few appearances in the WWF and even helping distract and getting in a tussle with Rowdy Roddy Piper's enforcer; "Cowboy" Bob Orton. One of the most iconic images in WWF/E history being the image of Stallone holding Von Erich's hands up after the match. The world title around the Texan's waist.
