@sweetjoey2 That's a great point...I've heard horror stories about guys who were in the ring with Andre when he wasn't being cooperative and it's not good!
one more thing this is the first and so far to me one of the best survivior series ever and thanks for the pre-show i didn't start watching ppvs till wrestlemania 5 so two years after this ppv :)
@Derby14 you also have to remember one more thing about andre the giant and hogan knew this IF ANDRE DIDN'T WANNA LOSE A MATCH HE WOULDN'T he was one of the well now rare wrestlers who chose when he would lose.
@NWpowerhouse85 LOL...I agree. I was just enjoying the kayfabe when I made that comment - not trying to be overly critical. You're absolutely right though...they've got to put over Andre as strong as possible to try and mitigate the deterioration in his skills.
@Derby14 Well, they're selling shows, what the hell do you want them to say? "Andre, who's now barely mobile, far past his prime, near the end of his career, and couldn't jump a half an inch off the ground?"
Is it true that the JYD was originally supposed to be in that match and was replaced at the last minute by Ricky Steamboat?
