10 WWE WrestleMania Matches That Sadly Get Overlooked
You NEED to check out these underrated classics!
7. The Rockers Vs. Haku & The Barbarian (WrestleMania 7)
Within a year, Marty Jannetty would be extracting glass from his forehead on the floor of The Barber Shop, but for now, he and Shawn Michaels were still the same "tag team specialists" that enthralled crowds, mixing the frenetic athletics of The Young Bucks with the salesmanship and timing of The Revival.
Given enough time, The Rockers could steal any show they damn well pleased, though thanks to Ultimate Warrior and Randy Savage's career-ending match, they had to settle for second place on this night in Los Angeles.
Haku and The Barbarian were the opponents in WrestleMania 7's opener, but they were more than just two beefy roadblocks for The Rockers to try and overcome. Both were highly-skilled, deceivingly-athletic brutes that not only bumped off of The Rockers' most dazzling strikes, but could fire back with punishing offense that looked great.
The two duos were natural foils, and with 10-plus minutes with which to work, they kicked off WrestleMania 7 with an absolute bang.
