When contemplating the unique structure of 80s-era WWF where Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage co-existed in the same company, do understand that competition (above anything that anyone else may consider, is truly best for business. Just as 80s era NWA succeeded with Dusty Rhodes and Ric Flair, and the Attitude Era was pushed by The Rock and Steve Austin, Hulk Hogan's earning potential was helped by Randy Savage, and vice versa. Thus, for as much as Vince McMahon owes his success to Hulk Hogan, he certainly owes Randy Savage just as much.
