On this day...(I see clearly)23 years ago Hulk Hogan defeated the Iron Sheik to win the WWF Title in what was the beginning of the Golden Age of the Wrestling.
Thoughts?

I marked for the match hugely, still do to this day, but still this should be in the (W)rest of Wrestling forum though.

I was gonna write about this for my This Week in Wrestling History yesterday during Raw since they didn't have one but chose to talk about the first ever Royal Rumble instead.

I want to see Hogan win the WWE title and hold it for 4 years in the celebration of his 20 year legacy.

Wrestling would have never taken off like it did if that happened.

Wish Iron Sheik would have took old man Verne's money and HUMBLED the Hulkster And then after Vince sued Verne and Shiek for however much money it would be, Shiek would never be trusted to wrestle in another promotion again when the AWA folded. |

Jed should seriously consider doing an RTB for this.

IIRC wasn't Bob Backlund completely refusing to do the job to Hogan, so they got him to drop the belt to Sheik as an interim??
