yeah, it was a great angle that led to this match. The previous month, Hogan fought Kamala, and Kamala's handler, Kim Chee, atrtacked Hogan. He hit Hogan with a piledriver, and unmasked, revealing Orndorff. Angles like this don't happen anymore!

The ring announcer sucked...but I always loved Kamala's music

heat for Wrestlemania III. Andre The Giant is Andre The Giant. He was the man back then. The cornerstone of the WWF. He didn't work house shows and if he did he picked when and where he was going to work. He kept the shit to a minimum. Small shit like cameos and shit to build up heat for Wrestlemania III & back then he was even enjoying a nice run as a road agent. He spent most of his time as a road agent playing cards backstage and drinking and gambling with Tito Santana. Nuff said.

I guess I should acknowledge this shit. Yeah......most of you know about the rivalry that poppped between Hulk and Mr. Wonderful. As far as Kamala and Hogan are concerned, these two had been feuding in the hotbed arena's from December of 1986 to March of 1987. They feuded a lil after Wrestlemania III in June of 1987. Andre had medical problems with his back. He wasn't in any condition to be working house shows back then leading up to Wrestlemania III unless it was a small cameo to build up

The announcer should be FIRED

This was back when wrestling was "real"

good match

@Mrblancnoir Vince had Bobby divide his time between Andre, Hercules and Race during this timeframe. Orny was gonna take some time off and Bundy, though still with Bobby at this time, was for better or for worse left out in the cold as he was the only Heenan Family member not to be escorted to the ring at Wrestlemania 3.

@eddiegfan22 Nah, it's Philadelphia. Like Paul Heyman once said, Philadelphians would cheer for the guy that killed Bambi's mother.

@seikogoldwatch2009 Since this was a tag match, he probably decided to give the belt the night off. He has done this occasionally during his first run when he was doing tag matches.

I'm sorry it's just weird to see Piper and Hogan in a tag team together. lol. I mean with Roddy being the reason Hogan has no hair haha!

Amazing how easy they went on each other! Modern hard core wrestling is extremely violent, this is clearly for a children's audience. That being said, I don't want to see anyone get hurt for real and some of the things they do today have lead to sevear injuries that never should have occured.
