Vince McMahon bought WWE from his father in 1982 and kicked off his quest for industry domination. McMahon had a bunch of ideas in his bag that would help WWE become even bigger than it already was.
This led to the birth of WrestleMania, Vince McMahon's greatest creation. The Show of Shows was first held at the historic Madison Square Garden on March 31, 1985. Vince McMahon put in every bit of effort and finances that he had to make the event a major success.

The event was headlined by WWE Champion Hulk Hogan and Mr. T taking on Roddy Piper and Paul Orndorff. WrestleMania's success led to annual installments of the event. Vince McMahon's hard work paid off when first WrestleMania became a huge hit.
Today, WrestleMania has turned into a week-long mega event that attracts fans from more than 60 countries. So far, WWE has presented 37 WrestleMania events. It certainly isn't a stretch to say that 'The Showcase Of The Immortals' is the greatest creation of Vince McMahon.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
