Humphrey Metrodome Attendance 23,000 Event chronology ← Previous SuperClash Next → SuperClash II **WrestleRock** was a [professional wrestling](/source/Professional_wrestling) [supercard](/source/Supercard) event promoted by the [American Wrestling Association](/source/American_Wrestling_Association) (AWA). In June 2016 the event was added to the [WWE Network](/source/WWE_Network).[1] ## Background The event was held at the [Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome](/source/Hubert_H._Humphrey_Metrodome) in Minneapolis, Minnesota on Sunday April 20, 1986.[2] The card was heavily promoted for months during weekly television programming. Although not as ambitious as the WWF's [WrestleMania 2](/source/WrestleMania_2), the show was a reasonable success, drawing more fans than both of [Jim Crockett Promotions](/source/Jim_Crockett_Promotions)' [Crockett Cup](/source/Jim_Crockett%2C_Sr._Memorial_Cup_Tag_Team_Tournament) shows combined. WrestleRock would prove to be the final stadium show for the AWA. ### WrestleRock Rumble The promotions for the show included a music video shot in Las Vegas entitled the "WrestleRock Rumble" in a vein similar to "[The Super Bowl Shuffle](/source/The_Super_Bowl_Shuffle)" from 1985. It featured different AWA talent "rapping" verses, including 60-year-old Verne Gagne reading his verse off a sheet.[2] The video was parodied by the [WWE](/source/WWE) online comedy show *Are You Serious?*, with co-host [Road Dogg](/source/Road_Dogg) calling Nick Bockwinkel the best rapper of the bunch. It was then parodied as the "WrestleMania Rumble", featuring [Brodus Clay](/source/Brodus_Clay), [Yoshi Tatsu](/source/Yoshi_Tatsu), [Santino Marella](/source/Santino_Marella) and Puppet H doing rap verses to promote [WrestleMania XXVIII](/source/WrestleMania_XXVIII).[3] ## Results No. Results Stipulations Times 1 Brad Rheingans defeated Boris Zukhov Singles match 08:31 2 Little Mr. T and Cowboy Lang defeated Lord Littlebrook and Little Tokyo Tag team match with Gary Lumpkin as the special guest referee 10:01 3 Colonel DeBeers defeated Wahoo McDaniel by disqualification Singles match 05:03 4 Buddy Rose and Doug Somers defeated The Midnight Rockers (Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty) Tag team match 12:03 5 Tiger Mask defeated Buck Zumhofe Singles match 10:55 6 Barry Windham and Mike Rotunda defeated The Fabulous Ones (Stan Lane and Steve Keirn) Tag team match 14:01 7 Giant Baba defeated Bulldog Bob Brown Singles match 8:28 8 Harley Race vs. Rick Martel ended in a double countout Singles match 17:34 9 Sherri Martel defeated Luna Vachon, Joyce Grable, Kat LeRoux, Rose Divine, Taylor Thomas, Despina Montagas, Misty Blue Simmes, Debbie Combs, and Candi Divine 10-woman battle royal 10:00 10 Sgt.
