WrestleMania Top Five: Biggest Turns

  1. WrestleMania VI:  Andre The Giant retires as a good guy.

For nearly his entire career Andre The Giant was cheered and beloved by fans all over the world. It wasn’t until he sided with Bobby “The” Brain Heennan in the spring of 1987 that fans turned on him.

For three years the fans hated Andre and feared him. It wasn’t until the closing moments of his appearance with Haku at WrestleMania VI that Andre finally saw the light.  

Sadly, this was the final time he would set foot in a ring to wrestle on the WWE as he retired soon after. Less then 3 years later, Andre passed away, leaving behind a legacy few will ever be able to top.
