3. WrestleMania 7 – Macho and Elizabeth Reunite

Nothing is better than a happy ending when it seems to come out of nowhere. As the Macho King, Randy Savage had dropped Miss Elizabeth as his manager, and had instead turned to Sensational Sherri. Their royal union saw a heel Savage promote himself as the ruler of wrestlers after defeating Jim Duggan for a short-lived “King of the Ring” title. After feuding with Hulk Hogan and Dusty Rhodes, Savage turned his attention to then-WWE Champion Ultimate Warrior, eventually using his scepter to cost him the title against Sergeant Slaughter.

This feud reached a heated and personal dimension due to Savage’s assault of Warrior, and being the key reason behind losing the biggest prize in wrestling at the Royal Rumble. So, they would add a stipulation that the loser would retire from the industry after a battle at WrestleMania 7, and Savage helped Warrior to his greatest ever wrestling match, without any shadow of doubt. Savage lost, and suffered a humiliating post-match attack from Sherri. This led Elizabeth, who was in the audience, to rush the ring and throw Sherri away, leading to an emotional reuniting between the first couple of professional wrestling.
