    Honkytonkman suggested that the Hogan Andre match was teased about the time of Survivor Series the year before. Survivor Series didn't debut its first event until 8 months after Wrestlemania 3 in 1987

    The main feud stemmed from André the Giant's kayfabe turn and betrayal of his ally, the WWF Champion Hulk Hogan, which began when Hogan was presented a trophy for being the WWF Champion for three years, and André, his good friend, came out to congratulate him. Shortly afterwards, André was presented a slightly smaller trophy for being "undefeated in the WWF for 15 years" and Hogan came out to congratulate André, but ended up being the focal point of the interview.

    He says Hogan, Andre started about Survivor Series. There was no Survivor Series in 86, the first one was in November of 87 which was after Wrestlemania 3 and Hogan and Andre were on separate teams. Hes a year behind.

    @BorderCityBandit I agree for the most part. There were a lot of great personalities in the WWF back then. All of the wrestlers that were talked about were just these great stars. However I do think that the Attitude Era was just a little bit better. Then again maybe it was because the 80's was like a cartoon and the 90's was more like a comic book movie. Both are great but I like the comic book movie better.

  • @godleto
    @godleto 13 років тому

    We didn't get PPV yet in my town, so I remember watching the news that night to see if Hogan beat Andre. I was 11, and didn't know why the biggest sports event wasnt covered by the sports anchor.

  • @Shadowhoggy
    @Shadowhoggy 12 років тому

    @81pdmatt you are correct.And those that are saying that there was one before the ppv are I believe confusing the Series with the 20 man Rumble

  • @meavid
    @meavid 12 років тому

    I'll never forget the Superstars show when Andre turned on Hogan. If that wasn't enough, the Hart Foundation beat the British Bulldogs for the tag titles...and Outback Jack finally made his debut lol Unreal.

  • @jwblhojer

    A couple of eras that would be interesting would be:

    WWF November 1997 - Montreal screjob and Pillman death.

    did you see the pipers pit? first hogan got a trophy that was huge and hogan gave a promo, later andre got 1 that was smaller and hogan came out and did another promo to the fans telling how the giant is so good the usual jazz and the giant left as he " didnt like hogan taking his moment and felt he should of got a better trophy "

  • @Hulkamania4eva
    @Hulkamania4eva 15 років тому

    Did the Vader thing happen in a match? It could have just been the guy working stiff with each other.
    I've read Flair's book as well but have never heard about a fight with the Nasty Boys.
    The Bischoff thing was an argument I think, not a fight.

  • @81pdmatt
    @81pdmatt 12 років тому +1

    @Shadowhoggy It was absolutely better that way, whenever the big events did happen it was something special. Think about it, why would anyone spend $50 on a ppv headlined by CM Punk and Alberto Del Rio when we have seem them wrestle on Raw 4 times. Unfortunately we can never go back to using jobbers because fans now are spoiled and wouldn't watch.

    Back then, WrestleMania didn't have the building and "lead up" that it now has today (no Royal Rumble or Monday Night Raw)...Check out the new DVD (The True Story of WrestleMania) and you'll see how late the Andre/Hogan match came together..they didn't even announce the Silverdome as the location until February (unlike today when it is announced a year in advance)...Bottom line: the planets all aligned themselves for this mega event (& thank God they did!)...

  • @peterp21
    @peterp21 13 років тому

    @cashcrazywhiteboy You're probably right about Earthquake as a draw. But, within the context of WWF 1990 booking, Warrior as new champ would have benefitted more from having Earthquake as his big first feud rather than Rick Rude. Earthquake may have been the "Monster of the Month" during that time, but feeding him to Hogan instead of UW was a bad idea.

  • @Rando1975
    @Rando1975 15 років тому

    I was confused by that too. I was thinking "wasn't the first Survivor Series in 1987?" And I was right.

  • @81pdmatt
    @81pdmatt 12 років тому

    @Shadowhoggy Possibly but that Royal Rumble wasn't a ppv. Talking about this reminds me of how big these events were back then because of the massive build up there wasn't a ppv ever month to water everything down.

  • @PeterHowe228
    @PeterHowe228 12 років тому

    On January 10, 1987, WWF and NWA ran shows the same night in Philadelphia WWF drew 14067 and the NWA drew 11000. To show you how far the industry has fallen, I guarantee you if this happened today with WWE and TNA, they would come nowhere close to those numbers.

    I KNOW! There was no suvivor series in 86. Unless it was not a ppv and andre and hogan were on the same team together. Pretty sure 87 was the first SS. I know it was the first WWF PPV.

  • @nexivdr
    @nexivdr 15 років тому

    they used to have the same thing happen in dif parts of the country, they would run the same scripts in dif towns. for the fued they showed on tv. hogan got a trophy first, then andre got 1 which was smaller.

    @Bravesrtops 12 років тому

    @81pdmatt This is true, and it's my biggest problem with the attitude era although it really started in Mid South. If you give away great matches on tv, where is the incentive to purchase the ppv. But that is where the business is at right now, I would expect the company to really take a good look at ppv business. People just don't have the disposable income.

    i just said he couldn't wrestle... doesn't mean he can't work because over the years i'm learning to distinguish between the two....i used to get caught up in the internet term of "work rate" and have gotten away from buying people's set in stone philosophies and trying to figure it out from all sides.... HTM got consistent heat with his gimmick and drew money with it.... i only said he couldn't wrestle (hold for hold that kinda bullshit) he could work (draw money work not excessive "highspots")

  • @81pdmatt
    @81pdmatt 12 років тому

    @Bravesrtops I would replace the pay-per-views, minus the big 4, with Saturday Night's Main Events. Recombine the Raw and Smackdown rosters, unify the the world titles, along with the IC and US titles and have 2 big matches a week for each show that are properly hyped. Just last Monday we had a champion vs champion match and a Wrestlemania main event rematch with no hype on free tv. Seriously how can you do that and expect people to spend $50 on a ppv.

    There was no Survivor Series prior to Wrestlemania III.
    McMahon was desperately trying to win over Southern wrestling fans and had been for a couple years at that point. First, Hillbilly Jim and family. By late-86, fucking endless Blackjack Mulligan vignettes, then Honkytonk Man - initially pushed as a babyface.
    McMahon's a wrestling genius, but when it came to appealing to Southerners, he had no fucking clue at that point.

  • @Hulkamania4eva
    @Hulkamania4eva 15 років тому

    Contrary to your opinion, you know as much as I do about the details. Last tie I read, it was basically Ric yelling at Eric. There was no physical altercation between the two. Just a volatile argument.
    Unlike you, I don't put all my faith into a WWE produced book and Internet websites.

  • @bigvern624

    it's true he couldn't wrestle worth a shit in the ring and i think more ppl than not have referred to the dynamite kid incident as fact; his memory like many others is jacked as there was no survivor series in 1986.... however, he did hold the IC Title longer than anybody else because ppl despised his character and wanted anyone to beat him and he worked main events at the house shows...you can't take that away from him

    Well first of all those that argue over about the WWF having 3 shows running the same night and drew more money than the NWA Mid Atlantic Wrestling are wrong . NWA was doin the same thing running two to three shows a night . One show might have Flair on it and the other show might have Dusty on it or one show might have Flair vs Dusty and the others have Maybe Rock n Roll Xpress vs The MIdnight Xpress . It depends where they was and who they had on the show . Thats where they drew money .

    @QuentinDude I won't overrate HTM, but to say Rude, Perfect, and Earthquake blew him away with their heel runs is a little bit wishful thinking. I like all those guys but Rude didn't do shit in WWF other than a couple of feuds with UW (the world title feud which did not draw very well). Perfect was good but wasn't a big draw either. Earthquake was a great big man but it's debateable if he was a great draw, other than his SS match with Hogan.
