WrestleMania VI was a huge professional wrestling show put on by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It happened on April 1, 1990, at the SkyDome in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. This was the sixth time the WrestleMania event took place. It was also special because it was the first WrestleMania ever held outside of the United States. Many fans came to watch, even more than the previous WrestleMania event.

The show is most famous for a match called "The Ultimate Challenge." In this exciting match, Hulk Hogan, who was the WWF Champion, faced The Ultimate Warrior, who held the WWF Intercontinental Championship. Both of their championship titles were on the line, meaning the winner would take both!
