Professional Wrestling has always relied on celebrities to get the mainstream attention the celebrities bring along with them. In fact, if it hadn’t been for celebrity involvement, wrestling as we know it wouldn’t have become as huge as it is today.
Back in 1985, Vincent McMahon, the owner of World Wrestling Entertainment, made a gamble that would have either ruined him financially, or change the way people look at wrestling forever. He spent an insane amount of money on the first WrestleMania, booking celebrities like the late, great Muhammad Ali, Cindy Lauper and Mr.T. Hulk Hogan wrote in his autobiography that Mr. T saved the first WrestleMania by being a part of the main event, ultimately making it a big success.
Since then, there have been numerous instances when celebrities donned wrestling gear and locked horns with the absolute best in the middle of the ring.
