So what better time than now to schedule a WWE Universal/Championship unification match for WrestleMania 38?

It's near impossible to sit down and watch anything from that era seriously with half of it blurred and the other half removed. Which is what brings us to WWE's latest DVD release as they have put out The Attitude Era WrestleMania Collection A DVD set of four specific WrestleMania events as we get to look[...]

Another source said, "Vince sees him as a future WrestleMania main eventer That should tell you everything about his future here."

 So when his former employer, the WWE, comes a calling looking for him to "come home" and make an appearance or even wrestle a match, it had better be a big deal and one that is planned well in advance. It's being reported that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson will be at both Survivor Series and Wrestlemania[...]

 Roddy Piper was at the front of this moment as the best talker in the industry (as featured in his iconic Piper's Pit segments) and as the main adversary to super-babyface Hulk Hogan, eventually leading to the two main-eventing the first Wrestlemania with Mr T and "Mr Wonderful" Paul Orndorff.
