What were some of the largest crowds for WWE events before Wrestlemania III? The Big Event on 8/28/86 drew a legitimate 61,000+ in Toronto. Any others come to mind?

Showdown at Shea. 32,000 in 1976 and 36,000 and change in 1980.
King of the Ring '85 drew 23,000 at Sullivan Stadium in Foxboro.
Some MSG Shows if you include the Felt Forum attendance would have pushed the 25,000 range.

Also, the combined attendance from the three venues of Wrestlemania II is just over 40,000. |

I don't know the number, but watching the PPV, the Wrestlemania 17 crowd looks mammoth.

Come on guys, this should have been answered like first.
The Big Event 8/28/86 61,470 WWE claims 74,000. They could be right I dont know. They did draw at least 61,470 though.
