Wow. Either Malenko is really small or Sting is really big.

Mongo was horrible here. Heenan and Bischoff were both trying to put over Malenko and then Mongo goes and buries him just because he's smaller than Sting. Here's the following week's Sting vs. Hogan match that I see you also posted: www.dailymotion.com/Stinger1981/video/x2wfp0_hulk-hogan-vs-sting_sportI remember looking forward to that match so much because it was the first one on one meeting with my two favorite wrestlers. Hogan did a great job playing the heel in this match, especially considering he hadn't played a heel in close to 15 years. He had the crowd totally behind Sting and booing himself except for the Hulk up routine. Just imagine if they would have went ahead with Hogan's heel turn at this point instead of 7 months later. The nWo as we knew it may have never existed. Outside the finish & long entrance, that's probably the best Hogan match I've ever seen. You can say what you want about Hogan's "workrate" but he is a hell of a story teller & uses ring psychology to a T. |

WCW fans crapped all over Hogan. They wanted to see their guys like Sting, Flair, and Vader.. not Hogan. |

It wasn't like that in all the arenas, but yeah they didn't react well to Hogan being there, so they did something to counteract that with the nWo and it worked well. |
