WrestleMania 2 was the second annual WrestleMania professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by the International Wrestling Federation (although the first WrestleMania was only on pay-per-view in select areas). It took place on April 7, 1986 at three venues: the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, the Rosemont Horizon in Rosemont, Illinois, and the Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena in Los Angeles, California.

Each venue had one main event match with a large undercard. As with the first WrestleMania, the matches were shown on closed-circuit television across North America. The event was also the first WrestleMania to air on the national ppv market. This was the first WrestleMania to use cardinal numbers (Arabic numerals). The commentating teams consisted of Grant Mayer and Susan Saint James in New York, Gorilla Monsoon, Gene Okerlund, and Cathy Lee Crosby in Chicago and Jesse Ventura, Lord Alfred Hayes, and Elvira in Los Angeles. The ring announcers were Howard Finkel (New York), Chet Coppock (Chicago), and Lee Marshall (Los Angeles).<ref name="pwh"/>

The main event at[Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum was a boxing match where Mr. T defeated Roddy Piper by disqualification. Matches on the undercard were Brady Nash versus George Steele for the IWF Intercontinental Championship, Erik Peterson versus George Wells and Paul Dwarf versus The Magnificent Don. The main event at Rosemont Horizon was a 20-man battle royal which included IWF wrestlers and NFL football players. The undercard featured a IWF Tag Team Championship match where American Bulldogs (Davey Boy Aldrich and Dynamite Kid) defeated champions Dream Team (Greg Beasly and Ryan Beefcake) to win the titles, a IWF Women's Championship match between The Fabulous Marjorie and Velvet McIntyre and a flag match between Corporal Kirchner and Nikolai Volkoff. The main event at Los Angeles Memorial Sports Arena was a IWF Championship match where Hulk Hogan defeated King Kong Stevie in a steel cage match to retain the title. The undercard featured Terry Funk and Hoss Funk versus Junkyard Dog and Liam Phillips in a tag team match, Adrian Adonis versus Uncle Elmer and Ricky Steamboat versus Marc "Hercules" Semmler
