Maybe, I'd stopped watching by then. But the match where Andre turns over the belt was before Wrestlemania. When Andre gave up the belt, "Commissioner" McMahon ruled that the heavyweight title was vacant. Hulk lost it, Andre gave it up, and Million Dollar Man didn't beat anybody to get it. So no champ. They set up a single-elimination tournament with 14 or 16 guys to see who would come out as the champ. And I think that tournament was basically Wrestlemania I.
