Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "El Matador" Tito Santana opened the card against a wrestler who was making their singles debut at "Wrestlemania". Who was his opponent?

Answer: Shawn Michaels

Shawn had turned on his tag team partner Marty Jannetty. He became a villain and adopted his "Heart Break Kid" persona that he used for the rest of his career.

2. Jake "The Snake" Roberts was a master at mind games. However, at "Wrestlemania VIII," Jake would find himself in a match with an opponent who was immune to them. Who was Jake's opponent?

Answer: The Undertaker

Jake Roberts had The Undertaker down after he applied his finisher. Instead of pinning The Undertaker, Roberts went after The Undertaker's manager Paul Bearer. This gave The Undertaker enough time to recover and give Jake a "Tombstone" and win the match.

3. How did the match between Bret "The Hitman" Hart and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper end?

Answer: Hart Pinned Piper

This match was for the WWE "Intercontinental Championship." At one point in this match, Piper had Hart hurt and went to get the ring bell to use. After some deliberation, Piper realized he wanted to win the match fairly. That would lead to his downfall. When Piper had his "Sleeperhold" applied, Hart reversed it and got the pin.

4. Next up was the "8 Man Tag Team Match". How many participants of this match has held the WWE "World Heavyweight Championship" belt?

Answer: 1

The two teams of four were: Sgt. Slaughter, Big Bossman, "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, and Virgil, against Repo Man, The Mountie, and The Nasty Boys. Of the eight, only Sgt. Slaughter has held the WWE "World Heavyweight Championship" belt. Several others in this match have held WWE gold, but not the belt in question.

5. Who was the ring announcer for the "8 Man Tag Team Match"?

Answer: Ray Combs

Ray Combs, host of Family Feud, was called upon by Vince McMahon to take part of this event. Combs threw several insults at the heel team, which in turn angered them. Combs took his own life in June of 1996.

6. In the WWE "World Heavyweight Championship" match, how did the "Macho Man" Randy Savage cheat to end his match with Ric Flair?

Answer: Pulled Flair's trunks during the pin.

Whether a good guy or a bad guy, Savage has never shied away from using whatever he needed to do to get an advantage. This match was undoubtedly the best of the card. For nearly 20 minutes, Flair and Savage went back and forth until Savage rolled Flair up and held his tights to get the pin. Savage would become the new WWE Heavyweight Champion.

7. "The Model" Rick Martel fought a real Native American at "Wrestlemania VIII". Who was he?

Answer: Tatanka

Chris Chavis, AKA Tatanka, is a descendant from the Lumbee tribe. Tatanka would continue his WWE unbeaten streak as he would pin Martel.

8. Which of these wrestlers did not participate in the WWE "Tag Team Championship" match?

Answer: Steve Keirn

This match pitted the Natural Disasters (Tenta and Ottman) against Money Inc. (Rotundo and Ted DiBiase). The Natural Disasters won by count out so Money Inc. remained champions. Steve Keirn was known as Skinner and he would wrestle Owen Hart at "Wrestlemania VIII".

9. What was Owen Hart's nickname at "Wrestlemania VIII"?

Answer: The Rocket

Owen has had several nicknames in his WWE career. "The Rocket" would be Owen's nickname during his first run in the WWE after he ditched the Blue Blazer gimmick. Owen also went by the name "The King of Harts" at a later stage in his career.

10. The match between Hulk Hogan and Sid Justice was well known for being the return of the Ultimate Warrior, but what other wrestler interfered in the match?

Answer: Papa Shango

Papa Shango actually missed his cue and ran in late. Sid had to compromise and kick out of Hogan's finishing move. When Shango finally did make it to the ring, he and Sid beat down Hogan. To the surprise of everybody watching, me included, the Ultimate Warrior's music hit and he ran down and saved Hulk Hogan.
