Hey guys what’s up I have a question here that I thought some of you guys help me answer. I’m a security guard and my new supervisor came to see me today and I mentioned to him that I’m a big wrestling fan. He told me he wrestled for an Indy group out of Quebec and said he used to hang out with WWE stars when they came to town.
Basically, he asked me how they(WWF officials) decided who would go over in main events in most towns before 1985(pre PPV)? For example, how do they decide that Hogan is going over Paul Orndorff in Toronto?
I told him that whoever they were pushing at the time would go over. Or Vince, or a road agent would pick the winner. He said neither of those were the answer and kept insisting that I knew it, but couldn’t think of it. Now that I think about it a bit more I guess it could have been up to Hogan, but then again he was not always in the main event each time. I don’t think it’s that complicated of a question, but I was born in 1984 and the question is referring to the early 80’s which is a period I am not very familiar with. If any of you guys could provide some insight please feel free to do so.
