Bolstering the old cliche about McMahon's fascination with big guys they might have been, but Andre The Giant and Big John Studd were in another postcode to the usual airport attractions McMahon typically meddled with. It wasn't about the biceps or beef here, more the sheer mass - and just how impressive it would be to see one of them hit the deck.
Relatively recent WWE arrival Bobby Heenan doesn't feature hugely on this show, but is at his typical 'Brain' best when he nicks off with Andre's bag of cash after he scores $15,000 for dropping his mammoth foe.
The two would make far more than that when they came together years later, but this cute bit of post-match comedy between the pair made the best of the vast discrepancy between them in both size and sensibility.
