hogan/bigelow vs dibiase/virgil #1 wwf 88

[Tubewings]

A few things to point out.

1--This was held the day after the first-ever Royal Rumble.

2--Vince McMahon called this show due to a health scare by Gorilla Monsoon.

Unusual to see Hogan without my alltime favorite WWF belt in 88', which is obviously the Winged Eagle Belt...

[tb049]

Haha Bigelow gets nailed in the face by a fan 2:03

[chessarama]

This card was held on the last week of Januray, 1988. Hogan lost the best about a week later on February 5th.

[adheckle]

Was this the only time Vince did commentary for a card at MSG besides a pay-per view.

[Fartingbellybutton]

RIP Bam Bam.

[originaldeadman1190]

is that the grand wizzard with hogan and bam bam?

[BHoz77]

No, it's Sir Oliver Humperdink. The Grand Wizard died in 1983.

Does anyone have footage of the match between these two teams from 2/6/88 in Boston where DiBiase is introduced as WWF Champion?

[tico8007]

wow Bam Bam was in the wwf in the 80's as well as the 90's

[TurgeonFan77132]

Didn't they change the belt to the Winged Eagle one later in 1988?

[GarfieldVsSnoopy]

I don't know.

[SheriffTankStoner]

A week or so later in fact.

[BrianMilligan1]

actually they changed it just two weeks later, when hogan faced andre on feb 5 in indianapolis, that was the first time the winged eagle belt was used
