[6.0] "Say what you will about WrestleMania 2 as a whole event, but Part 2 was actually pretty good and miles better than Part 1. I did enjoy the 20 man battle royal because it had decent star power to carry a match like that. William 'The Refrigerator' Perry had a good showing in the match and got a great reaction from the crowd as well and was the only one of the NFL players that stood out as thankfully the proper wrestlers dominated it. You had legends like Bruno Sammartino and Pedro Moales there and an inevitable Andre The Giant win. The tag title was a genuine highlight on this PPV as well with the British Bulldogs winning the Tag Team Titles against Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake. The Women's Title match was pretty bad with Moolah's stranglehold on the division in full effect and the flag match barely got going really. Still, the two good matches got much more time here making the Chicago event very watchable. [WrestleMania 2 Overall Rating: 5.0]"

[4.0] "A great main event and solid Battle Royale made up for another two squash matches. British Bulldogs getting the win left this leg of WrestleMania 2 on a high note"

[1.0] "The battle royal was kind of fun and the WWF Tag Team Title match is real good and best match of all WWF WrestleMania 2 (1986), but both the flag match and the WWF Women's World Title match are just bad squashes. Slightly tolerable than the previous venue, but still just bad."

[4.0] "Frankly, Chicago was a breath of fresh air from the disaster that was the New York segment. Although the ring announcer wasn't as dramatic, his down-to-earth delivery spoke to me in a way, especially in the sense that he would often repeat parts so that the audience doesn't miss anything. The match quality was also a drastic improvement from New York, given that there weren't any matches that were offenses to the sport of pro wrestling in the same way that Savage vs. Steele and Mr. T vs. Roddy Piper were. [4.38/10 match score] FULL LIST OF MATCH RATINGS (DUD-*****): - Moolah vs. McIntyre (Women's Title)= 1/2* - Kirchner vs. Volkoff (Flag Match)= *1/4 - WWF vs. NFL Battle Royale= **3/4 - British Bulldogs vs. Dream Team (Tag Titles)= ****1/4"

[3.0] "The whatever portion of Mania 2, The first two matches were so short its hard to call them matches, the battle royal was a novelty I suppose, I mean I recognized most of the NFL players in there, Andre winning was nice. Then in the last match in Chicago, the MOTN by several thousand miles the Dream Team vs the British Bulldogs, an underrated Mania gem, so honestly, skip everything else and just watch that tag title match"

[3.0] "Started out awful with moolah squashing tapent as usual and velvet looked good sad she lost and then a useless flag match. The battle royal was kinda fun with the fridge william perry and andre the giant was fairly entertaining. Best match definitely was the tag match with a great finish. Overall a bad 2nd act"

[4.0] "Two unbearable matches in the first half and two mid-to-decent in the second set Mania in this arena in a lower areas of averageness."

[3.0] "Two short whatever matches followed by a below average Battle Royal and wrapped up by a good Tag Team title match. Better than the 1st Part, but that wasn't hard to accomplish. Main event can't save an otherwise below average card."

[3.0] "This part of the show in Chicago was a little more decent than the one in New York, with an interesting main event. Unfortunately, the battle royal wasn't great, although watchable, and the first two matches are ridiculous, not to say shameful. In-ring quality: 1.5/5. Angles and segments outside matches: 0/3. Bonus/Malus: Very limited for a wrestling show, and even more so for a Wrestlemania -0.5. Total: 3/10. Show seen on WWE Network."

[2.0] "Well, at least it's better than the New York portion of the show. Two very short matches followed by a decent enough battle royal with a fun concept (WWF wrestlers vs. NFL football players) and a good Tag Team Championship match between The Dream Team and The British Bulldogs (***1/4). The tag team division was the workrate division around this time and you can sure tell."

[10.0] "This was the midcard card of all 3 shows, yet still was fairly entertaining. Sure the "flah match was confusing, why wasn't it just a regular singles match? But thankfully didn't ruin the show. The main event was the most fantastic, altough pits for Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake that they lost. Also the finish was confusing since it, in a way did look like Bulldog would turn heel since also knocked and bloodied British Bulldog. Was also quit entertaining to see Ozzy Osbourne with blond hair and acctually speaking normal not unprehonsive like he does now. Pity Ozzy wasn't involved more in the WWE. Also the commentary was better than in for Chicago, especially Cathy Lee Crosby since she gave a lot more energy in her commentary. Although pity she didn't have more lines. To be honest since she was more quiet you forget she even is there"

[2.0] "Better than the first third but that bar is hideous low. The battle royal was alright for what it was and the tag match was the saving grace of the whole event but my god this is just so boring it's not even funny."

[4.0] "This was maybe a little more better than the 1st part, the Tag Team match was maybe what gave this 2nd part a boost, and having figures like Ozzy Osbourne, (and nothing to do with the event but Velvet McIntyre looked really good) so enough said 4/10"

[3.0] "Wrestlemania 2 part 2, almost just as uneventfully bad as part 1, however the only thing protecting this part of the event, was the Tag Team match with the British Bulldogs and the Dream Team which was a decent match, but the rest? Completely worthless."

[4.0] "This part of the show got saved by the tag team match but everything else was super short or super pointless and just wasn't fun or entertaining one bit, did not enjoy it at all."

[4.0] "This part of mania got bailed out due to the phenomenal tag match between The British Bulldogs and The Dream Team."

[3.0] "Going through my rewatch of all the Wrestlemania's this one stood out to me as particularly bad. There was only one match I even remotely was moved by, and I ended up zoning out of half the matches."

[4.0] "This part of the show had a good match as the Tag Championship match was actually some decent action. The problem is that the rest of this part of Wrestlemania 2 was not good at all. First of all, we have a Womens Championship match that actually starts of fast paced and kind of fun but then it just ends after not even 2 minutes. Why? Then we have a flag match that is over so fast that I am not even sure it happened. Lame as hell. The Battle Royal featured basically no actual wrestling moves but at least Andre makes sense as the winner and they did not give it to some NFL guy. As I said, the Tag Match is a decent end to this part of the show, but it is still very dull to watch in its entirety."

[4.0] "The tag title match featured some good in-ring action which has been missing from most of this PPV. I wish McMahon had booked all 3 locations like this one with the attraction match, main event, and a good in-ring contest. In this case the last two are one in the same but if we could've had Savage vs. Steamboat in NY, Tito Santana vs. Hercules in LA, and JYD vs. Terry Funk in LA, too this would've been a much better remembered show."

[3.0] "The battle royal was fun and the tag title match was good. The other two matches weren't even time fillers, as they weren't long enough to be called time fillers. Not that I'd want Moolah or Corporal Kirschner going longer."

[4.0] "I'm going to use the same review and rating on each venue's entry, because that's how I graded things in my spreadsheet. So, WM2... from a technical standpoint, this is an absolute laugher. At one point, we have overlapping/competing audio from a ring announcer in one venue, a wrestler cutting a promo interview in a second venue and the broadcast commentators in that second venue ALL AT ONCE. It is insane. We also have the "Where's the Beef" woman either with a dead mic or not understanding how to use a mic. And who could forget Susan St. James? Without a doubt, the most obnoxious, clueless and repetitive person to ever strap on a headset microphone for the WWF/WWE. "Uhhh ohhh". Yeah, "uh oh" is right whenever I rewatch this show and remember I have to choose between her and the mute button. Oh, the matches? A highly mixed bag of solid, occasionally good and terrible/pointless, but I think the better bouts were an improvement over WrestleMania I's best bouts. There's nothing even close to the quality of the Bulldogs vs Dream Team tag match back on WM1."

[6.0] "The tag match is great and the battle royal is fun but the first two matches added absolutely nothing to the card. I was wondering if there was going to be actual good wrestling match on this show but the bulldogs and the dream team worked a nice stiff match"

[4.0] "This was only slightly better than the previous venues. There was a very short womens title match, a random squash, a random battle royal and a fun tag match."

[10.0] "As a kid i always loved seeing the Battle Royals and this one wasn't that bad. The Moolah match was useless and maybe they could have gave Kirchner vs Kolaff a little more time. But The British Bulldogs really brought it and carried this part of Wrestlemania with their must see match."

[3.0] "going through the match since I can't rate them by themselves since they're either not over 5 minutes or someone doesn't have a profile. WWF Women's title match: ASS. garbage. is Moolahs whole gimmick here is that she was old and had a long reign? her wrestling was carried by Velvet McIntyres selling and then Moolah just pins her after she misses a dive? I guess going on the top rope was considered ore serious and new back then but jeez that was bad that she was pinned from that. Flag Match: not special. not worth the rewatch but it gets some points for getting the crowd wild up which I think it was th purpose. WWE & NFL Battle Royal: very cool to see all these legendary people in the ring at the same time. got the feeling Andre was winning cause he was the only one with attire that was standing out. nothing special but fun for th history aspect. was also presented very well and quick, WOW! who would have thought wwe could do a battle royal correctly. Tag Team match: I have nothing to say. bless them for giving a wrestling match no matter how basic. I wanted to cry in joy for something resembling a wrestling mach over 5 minutes"

[2.0] "Better than the first part of Wrestlemania 2 but not by much. A decent enough main event with three bad matches. Everything is forgettable and nothing special. 2/10"

[6.0] "Satisfactory and almost even good. Good tag match and not much else but for a short event you'd be pretty happy with it. Not sure about the low rating and obviously it probably ties in to the wrestlemania event as a whole rather than these individual matches."

"Slightly better than the first part. The first two matches stunk it up, the battle royal was decent I guess, and the tag title match was the best match here which saved this part for me."

[3.0] "The second portion of Wrestlemania 2 doesn't fair very well. And if it weren't for the tag title match to save it, this very well might be one of the worst cards in WWF history. We start with the Moolah match going short because of a wardrobe malfunction, which really sets the tone for this whole portion of Wrestlemania 2. We follow with a nothing filler match, and then have a generic battle royal where it seems like getting the guys in the ring and introducing them takes more time than getting everyone out! Just terrible. Fortunately, the tag title match is well worth your time. That match is the only 'required watching' that's needed from this card, unless you want to laugh at the wardrobe malfunction or see a still relatively new Hart Foundation get a bit of a rub from being some of the last in the battle royal."

[4.0] "Everything up to the main event was skippable. Moolah vs McIntyre was nothing of a match, same goes for Kirchner vs Volkoff. The Battle Royal was a Battle Royal, so there's really nothing to look for except for the crowd reaction that some of the NFL players got. The Bulldogs vs The Dream Team was the only decent match worth checking out, but it still felt like they rushed the finish a little bit. Rosemont didn't get as robbed as Uniondale, but still it wasn't worth the ticket."

[3.0] "Much improved for the ny bit but still noot good . The celeb on the anouncres desk was very bad. Th openr was very short and i hate seing mula win. The flag match was bad but it did what it was ment to do. ie. America good ussr bad. The battel roayl was a unfun mess that had no spots for most of it. The main event was fun but not as good is i was hoping for. Loved the piper promo in this saction as well"

[4.0] "The second part o WM 2 was obviously better than the first part but nothing crazy. The first two matches are a DUD so nothing to say to that really. When I first heard the idea of the battle royal being with NFL players I thought it was going to suck but after watching it I changed my mind, this was ok nothing crazy but not bad either. The main event was a great tag team match and is definitely worth watching."

[3.0] "Slightly better than the New York section but not by much. All the real character work happened there, this was just better in terms of matches. The tag team main event was solid, and I enjoyed the end of the rumble (especially seeing a young Hart Foundation) but that was about it. Most of the rumble was really boring, and the first two matches were nothing."

[3.0] "WrestleMania 2 is not that good of a show. I gave the show as a whole a 4 but I will give separate ratings for each Halle for Cagematch. Halle 1 (New York) gets a solid two, Halle 2 (Chicago) a 3, and Halle 3 a five. There's like two, maybe three matches I remember fondly from this show as a whole."

[6.0] "Chicago got probably the best section of Wrestlemania 2, with the Bulldogs winning the tag titles and the big NFL battle royal won by Andre the Giant. I fee like Fabulous Moolah and Velvet McIntyre could have had a good match had there not been a wardrobe malfunction. Poor Velvet got one Wrestlemania appearance and was done a minute and a half into the match. Better than the first tag, but not by a lot."

[4.0] "Chicago fared a bit better than New York for the second part of 'Mania 2. It starts with two blink-and-you-missed-them matches in Moolah vs. McIntyre and Kirchner vs. Volkoff that don't amount to much, but the WWF/NFL battle royal is reasonably entertaining for what it is, and this third concludes with the best match on the entire event in the Bulldogs vs. Dream Team Tag Title match."

[6.0] "I enjoyed part to a lot more than part one although the first two matches were not really good. I love battle royals and the NFL players were better than expected in this one. Got 2 past their prime mega star's spots on the Wrestlemania card (Andre and Sammartino) and both still looked good. The tag title match was very good. Commentary improved a little from part 1."

[4.0] "I'd rate this one about the same as the first halle of WrestleMania 2 to be honest I'd probably prefer the first halle in terms of characters on the show but the consensus is that this one is better because it has the tag match which is fair"

[3.0] "Slightly better than the New York section and thats only for the Tag Title match. Bulldogs vs The Dream Team is the one bout from this card that is worth a watch. The womens match is insanely short with Moolah going over despite being way past her prime. The Flag match was also barely a match with nothing to remember from it. The Battle Royale was a long strtch of nothingness followed by a fine finish with the Hart Foudation and Andre. We got one good match here, but Mania 2 is still living up to its awful reputation"

[3.0] "[Favorite Match of WM 2: The British Bulldogs vs The Dream Team] This idea of making wm in 3 different halles is not that bad but neither of 3 halles are really memorable."

[5.0] "Honestly not that bad for the second half of Mania 2, the womens title match was very short but they got their stuff in. Kirchner/Volkoff was a crowd pleasing moment, the battle royal was goofy and slow but it was decent and the main was great!"

[3.0] "Better than the first third of the show, but the only thing that saved it from a failing grade was the tag title match, which I really enjoyed. The rest sucked. The first two matches were short, unimpressive, and poorly booked (the All American face cheats to beat the Anti-American heel...? ). The battle royal was boring (especially for me as I am not American and have no clue who any of the football players are other than the ones that I have seen elsewhere in wrestling, like Bill Fralic in WCW) and boy those introductions felt like they'd never end. Check out the tag title match if you enjoy old school wrestling, don't bother with the rest unless you're a completionist."

[1.0] "1/3 of one of the worst Manias of all time. Nothing here is relevant. The WWF vs. NFL Battle Royal was badly executed, as were the rest of the matches, except the tag match. This is the rating for the whole WM."

[4.0] "2nd portion of wrestlemania 2 is slightly better than the 1st portion, mainly due to the tag match. First two matches a complete waste of time, Moolah vs McIntyre looked to be developing into a nice match but was way too quick. Bonus point for nip slip. 2nd match was forgettable, they missed out really to use the heat Nikolai was getting properly. First 3*, 2nd 2*. Battle Royal was OK but nothing special, and a botched finish 4*. Tag Team match saved the day. The overall event gets 4*"

[3.0] "The tag title match is very worth watching, the rest of it is less so. I still remain confused how Lou Albano remains employed, maybe he really did refuse to get fired."

[6.0] "The second part of Wrestlemania II turned out better than the previous one. The first two matches are not to be missed, as they go together for less than five minutes. In the first one we saw a sprint in which both girls managed to show something, although it wasn't enough to make a full assessment. The ending was spoiled, with the challenger's foot on the ropes, but the referee counted to three. The second match started slowly, we thought we would see a five minute match, but it wasn't meant to be. Corporal sort of accidentally hit the referee, although it looked as if he was angry and hit him on purpose. It seems to me that a disqualification could be given for that. The referee decided differently, laying low for a bit, allowing Kirchner to win with an intercepted cane. I'm a fan of battle royals, so from an entertainment point of view I enjoyed it. The battle of football and wrestling looks good on paper, but it didn't really show in the match. I was pleasantly surprised when the Hart Foundation was left with Andre the Giant at the end of the match. I think it was quite an interesting and little-known moment from Bret's early career in the WWF. The winner, in my opinion, is the right one. Well the main event of the second part, the tag team titles match. I enjoyed it and recommend you watch it. Measured, with a couple of interesting moments, and perhaps most importantly, a triumph for the British Bulldogs. P.S Sometimes I felt sorry for Katie because there were moments when the commentators weren't paying attention to her. And when they asked her something, they ignored her answer. Maybe it was for the best, but it was a pity if anyone was in her shoes."

[6.0] "A perfectly solid portion top to bottom. The two opening bouts were whatever, but they couldn't even harm a fly if they were to. The Battle Royal was a nice spectacle, while the tag title match was an awesomely hard-hitting contest with a wild finish."

[6.0] "The first two matches are super quick, but are fast paced and hit what they were going for. The meat of this portion is in the last two matches, and they both deliver on the promise hyped beforehand. Two very good 80s WWF matches makes this a win for me."

[4.0] "I recommend to watch the tag team match from this one and skip the rest. Other than that was pretty terrible."

[5.0] "Chopping up the show into three segments hurts the rating here as the first two matches for this card just flat out suck! The Battle Royal was fun and the tag title match is a must!"
