WrestleMania 2 (sequentially known as WrestleMania II) was the second annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) (although the first WrestleMania was only on pay-per-view in select areas). It took place on Monday, April 7, 1986, making it the only WrestleMania that was not held on the customary Sunday. WrestleMania 2 took place at three venues: the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York; the Rosemont Horizon in Rosemont, Illinois; and the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena in Los Angeles, California.
As with the first WrestleMania, the matches were shown on closed-circuit television across North America. The event was also the first WrestleMania to air on the national pay-per-view market. The commentating teams consisted of Vince McMahon and Susan Saint James in New York; Gorilla Monsoon, Gene Okerlund, and Cathy Lee Crosby in Chicago; and Jesse Ventura, Alfred Hayes, and Elvira in Los Angeles. The ring announcers were Howard Finkel (New York), Chet Coppock (Chicago), and Lee Marshall (Los Angeles).
Each venue had its own card. The respective final matches were a boxing match pitting Mr. T against Roddy Piper at Uniondale, New York; a 20-man battle royal involving WWE wrestlers and NFL football players at Chicago; and the main event, which featured WWE World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan defending his title against King Kong Bundy in a steel cage match at Los Angeles. Matches on the respective undercards saw Intercontinental Heavyweight Champion "Macho Man" Randy Savage defending his title against George Steele and Tag Team Champions The Dream Team (Greg Valentine and Brutus Beefcake) losing their titles against The British Bulldogs (Davey Boy Smith and Dynamite Kid).
