WrestleMania Top Five: Athletes Crossing Over

The pomp, the pageantry, the stars! All part of WrestleMania on nearly a yearly basis.  Fans just know that the WWE will bring in whomever in can get to create even more of a pop culture feeling to it.

Typically it is a big musical act that gets people talking, but then few remember afterwards.  It is when the stars of pop culture, the big screen, the cage and the sports world step into the squared circle, that become legendary moments!

Here below, are the five that stick out to us the most.

  1. WrestleMania XIV: Mike Tyson as special guest referee.

At the time, he was still seen as the baddest man on the planet. Feared by just about everyone but Stone Cold Steve Austin, the self-professed toughest SOB walking.  Put the two of them together and it was magic.  It would be Tyson turning on DX to raise Austin’s hand and kick off the Stone-Cold Era.
