11 Things WWE Wants You To Forget About Hulk Hogan

8. That He Wrestled Andre The Giant Before WrestleMania 3

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x52v6h_hulk-hogan-vs-andre-the-giant-shea_news So what was the most famous match of Hulk Hogan's career? There were many, but it's fair to say that WrestleMania 3 against Andre the Giant was top of the pile. Nobody had been able to beat Andre up until that point and that night Hogan won following that iconic body slam and leg drop combo. What WWE didn't want to tell you in the lead up to the match is that Hogan wrestled Andre the Giant before that night in 1987. They had a match in 1980 as part of a massive show at Shea Stadium. There were also plenty of other matches too in places like Japan and even on WWF shows. But if you remember the build up to WrestleMania 3, they acted as if it never happened before even though it actually happened several times.
