8. A "Gimmick Battle Royal" was held at "Wrestlemania 17" where some of the famous characters of all time made an appearance. Who won the "Gimmick Battle Royal"?

Answer: Iron Sheik

The Iron Sheik was the victor of the "Gimmick Battle Royal", a match between several other popular wrestlers from the 1980s and 90s. Rather than being booed for winning, he was cheered as a fan favorite. Reportedly, bookers selected the Iron Sheik to be the winner because Battle Royal eliminations occur when a wrestler is ejected over the top rope, and the Sheik was the only wrestler in the match who was physically unable to do the move.

9. Who won the first ever "Triple Threat" main event at a "Wrestlemania" to become the WWE World Champion?

Answer: Chris Benoit

On March 14, 2004, at "WrestleMania 20", in what is considered by many to be one of the most memorable moments in WWE history, Chris Benoit won the World Heavyweight Championship by forcing Triple H to tap out to his signature submission move, the "Crippler Crossface". It marked the first time the main event of a "WrestleMania" ended in submission.

10. "Wrestlemania 3" set an indoor attendance world record. What was the record breaking number of people in attendance that day?

Answer: 93,173

The attendance figure of 93,173 is widely disputed thanks in part to pro wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer. Meltzer reportedly had conversations with "Wrestlemania 3" promoter Zane Bresloff, in which Bresloff provided Meltzer with a faxed copy of the attendance statements from the Silverdome. According to Meltzer, the actual attendance was roughly 78000 with 75500 paid.

Although the attendance figures differed, the gate figures reported were accurate.
