Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This captures the 'Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection' era when MTV and WWF briefly ruled pop culture together—Cyndi Lauper's appearance wasn't a gimmick, she was legitimately mainstream famous.
Vince McMahon directed this himself, essentially making a propaganda film about his own empire's supporting characters—managers were crucial because most wrestlers couldn't talk on mic yet.
