WrestleMania trivia: The humble beginnings

Yesterday's answer: The last time Triple H was in a WrestleMania match that was NOT for the WWE or World Title was at WrestleMania X7 in 2001 -- seven years ago -- when he faced Undertaker. An astute reader points out that both Rock and Stone Cold were still with the company at the time, and Triple H had just started dating Stephanie McMahon. Draw your own conclusions there.

Today's question goes back to WrestleMania's humble beginnings, as I simply ask you -- who came up with the name "WrestleMania"?

The Fink did. I think he's also appeared at every single one in some form hasn't he?

The Fink!

I know David Schultz claims he came up with the concept and Vince stole (Honky Tonk Man backs up Dr D's claim) so I though he came up with the name...however Howard seems to be the guy.

Jimmy Hart

Howard Finkel. He thought of the Beatles and how there was Beatlemania and so he thought there would be a new craze in wrestling and he thought of Wrestlemania.

it was me

I always thought it was Pat Patterson
