February 22, 1991
As Andre The Giant made his return to the WWF Ring as being announced as the first inductee into the WWF Hall of Fame. Earthquake came out with Jimmy Hart. Hart offered to Andre to have Andre manage Earthquake in his match against Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 7. Andre simply refused saying that he's made peace with Hogan. Hart slapped Andre around and just when Andre put his hands on him. Earthquake struck Andre with Hart's bullhorn to the back taking the big man down and just like WrestleMania 6 when Earthquake ended his career. Earthquake was about to hit 3 sit down splashes, he had already hit 2 but as he went for a third one. Andre's old rival Hulk Hogan came down to make the save causing Earthquake and Hart to retreat. Hogan checked on Andre with Andre slowly getting up. Hogan & Andre stared each other down and for the first time since 1987, they made peace with each other again. Hogan got on the microphone and announced that Andre would be in the corner of Hulkamania. |

 Tugboat D. Dino Bravo
The Rockers D. Haku & Barbarian
The Mountie D. Shane Douglas
Ric Flair D. Dusty Rhodes
WWF Tag Team Championship: The Nasty Boys D. The Hart Foundation
The Undertaker D. Kerry Von Erich
Blindfold Match: Jake Roberts D. Rick Martel
Bootcamp Match: Hacksaw "Jim Duggan" D. Sgt. Slaughter
Million Dollar Championship Match: Virgil D. Ted Dibiase
6-Man Tag Team Match: The Legion of Doom & British Bulldog D. Demolition
Steel Cage Match: Hulk Hogan w/Andre The Giant D. Earthquake w/Dino Bravo
WWF Intercontinental Championship Match: Big Bossman D. Mr. Perfect by DQ
WWF Championship Match: Title vs Career: Ultimate Warrior D. Randy Savage to retain the WWF Championship, after the match. Savage reconciled with Miss Elizabeth.
 At WrestleMania 7, two former rivals collided for the first time in the World Wrestling Federation with Ric Flair defeating Dusty Rhodes.
 The Nasty Boys defeated The Hart Foundation at WrestleMania 7 to capture the WWF Tag Team Titles.
WrestleMania also witnessed the WrestleMania Debut of The Undertaker as he defeated former Intercontinental Champion Kerry Von Erich. Seems like this Phenom cannot be stopped!.
In a WWF First, Jake Roberts and Rick Martel faced off in a blindfold match with Roberts defeating Martel.
 Hacksaw "Jim Duggan" and Sgt. Slaughter created their own Gulf War when they faced off at WrestleMania 7, but this time like always, The United States prevailed with Duggan winning over Slaughter.
 Virgil got his much sweet needed redemption by defeating Ted Dibiase to capture the Million Dollar Championship and ending Dibiase's 2-long year reign as Million Dollar Champion.
 With his former rival Andre The Giant by his side, Hulk Hogan got a huge victory over Earthquake by winning the Steel Cage Match putting his feud behind him once and for all.
 The WrestleMania Main Event was probably an all-time classic for the World Wrestling Federation Championship between Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage.
 Both these 2 men went tooth and nail for the championship, it seemed like neither man would not give up, not even Randy Savage as he was fighting for his career. Savage almost put the champion away by hitting 2 signature elbow drops. Warrior hit 2 of his signature splashes, but both men continued to fight.
However in the end, There was not much fight left for the Macho Man as the Ultimate Warrior reigned supreme and walked out of WrestleMania still the WWF Champion as he became the second man in WrestleMania history to retain the WWF Championship.
However, Savage would get his happy ending and redemption still despite not winning the World Wrestling Federation Championship for the second time. Savage would regain the one prize he truly loved the most, Miss Elizabeth who had not been seen in the WWF since May of 1990 when Ric Flair dumped her. They both shared a reconcilation for the first time since 1989.

 WARRIOR LOCKED IN A CASKET
April 13, 1991
For weeks, Paul Bearer announced that there would be a funeral parlor show and the first guest that would be on the show would be the World Wrestling Federation Champion, The Ultimate Warrior. The Ultimate Warrior came out, Paul Bearer announced that he and The Undertaker built a custom made casket for the Ultimate Warrior because The Undertaker would be the next man in line to challenge for the World Wrestling Federation Championship and that he would make The Ultimate Warrior rest in peace. Warrior then grabbed Bearer as Bearer said that he was intimidated and scared, as Warrior attacked Bearer and tried to choke him to death. The Undertaker emerged from one of the caskets and attacked The Ultimate Warrior. Taker then tombstoned Warrior on the hard concrete floor of the parlor and then shoved him in the casket. Warrior tried his hardest to escape the casket but Undertaker closed the lid and locked him tight in there. Officials and referees came out to pry the casket, it took them 5 minutes to open the casket to get the lifeless WWF Champion out of that casket, however Warrior opened his eyes, coughing and breathing on his own. Warrior was able to get out of the casket on his own power and was able to barely walk on his own power. But you could tell that The Undertaker has now played the mind games on the World Wrestling Federation Champion!. |
