One of the things that took the then WWF into the mainstream was its association with MTV and the “Rock and Wrestling Connection”. The link came to them in the form of Cyndi Lauper, who in the mid 80’s was one of the biggest stars of the music world. Her celebrity helped reach new fans and there were only a few performers who were big enough at the time who could have given them this kind of MTV exposure. She was far more instrumental to help taking the WWF big time then she got credit for.
