WrestleMania: The Album is the third studio album by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It was released in 1993 by Arista Records and RCA Records.
Mike Stock and Pete Waterman (of Britain's famed Stock Aitken Waterman songwriting team) oversaw the project as producers and co-composers for RCA Records, with British A&R executive Simon Cowell serving as the executive producer.
Cowell conceived the project after learning that the WWF wrestlers had sold out Wembley Stadium in 27 minutes. Senior executives and A&R staff at Arista begged Cowell not to proceed with the project, fearing it would bring the label into disrepute.
The album failed to chart on the US Billboard 200 but reached #10 in the UK. The single "Slam Jam" was certified silver by the British Phonographic Industry in the United Kingdom and reached number four in the UK charts in December 1992.
