10 Cancelled WWE WrestleMania Matches

7. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Kamala - WrestleMania 9

A year after WWE scrapped The British Bulldog vs. The Berzerker, WWE were forced to chop yet another match from the bill on the biggest show of the year. 

WrestleMania 9 was supposed to see a superheavyweight scrap between Bam Bam Bigelow and Kamala – which would have served as the WWE pay-per-view swansong for the Ugandan Giant – until it was nixed. 

For the longest time it was just assumed that one or more of the bouts on the show had run long, forcing the match to be axed. Bruce Prichard explained on his Something to Wrestle podcast, The Beast from the East and his belly-painted dance partner were not included in the festivities due to the show’s ‘impromptu’ ending.

Yes, according to Brother Love himself, WWE got rid of a whole advertised match because they needed to make sure that Hulk Hogan had enough time to pose with the WWE Title after winning it from Yokozuna.
