10 Famous Wrestling Conspiracy Theories
6. Savage Gave Hogan His WrestleMania IX Black Eye
There was something different about Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania IX - namely the fact that he was sporting a great big shiner right around his left eye.
Naturally, wrestling fans immediately sensed that something fishy may have been afoot, largely refusing to believe WWE's kayfabe version of events (that he was attacked by Ted DiBiase and friends) or their non-kayfabe version of events (that he was involved in an unfortunate jet-ski accident).
Instead, they theorised that he had been involved in an altercation with former friend Randy Savage, who had grown resentful of the Hulkster on screen in the belief that he was having an affair with manager and actual wife Miss Elizabeth.
Honestly, it's entirely plausible - the tetchy relationship shared by Hogan and the Macho Man is one of the industry's worst kept secrets - but we really have no evidence besides that, and given how much wrestlers love to brag, you imagine Savage would have been playing up the time he decked WWE's franchise player.
Maybe it really was just a jet-ski accident after all.
