@TheRedWaltz24 yeah and Koko B Ware is. what a joke! they should've never started that bullshit. It's not a Hall of Fame its a "Hall of Guys who Kissed Enough Ass and are Still in Good with Vince Mcmahon aka GOD"
-
The referee's decision is final. Who is the old man in the ring? His opinion on the matter means nothing to me!
-
@Lfdjake91 It was pretty rare that they would have been interested in having one during Backlund's reign though. He wasn't very well-respected amongst insiders, but Backlund was insanely popular.
-
@mindbeyond In the wrestling magazines of the time, it was said that the referee was confused as well with both wrestlers wearing black trunks.
-
This shows how much respect the McMahons had for Greg Valentine. They practically gave him the WWF championship here....without actually giving him the title. The disputed finish is a show of respect.
-
This finish was great and plausible.
-
Valentine won fair and square!
-
That finish made less sense than 1999 Hulk Hogan silliness.
-
What's a miscarriage of justice is that Bob Backlund isn't in the WWE Hall of Fame.
-
@Lfdjake91 Yes Greg Valentine would have made a great heel champion! But they wanted Bald Hulk Hogan to be champ
Greg Valentine should have gotten to be WWF champion. He would have made a great heel champion.
