WrestleMania II

By Scott Keith on 25 January 2023


I know you probably answered this, but with Piper turning face after WM 2 and leaving for Hollywood after 3, do you think he’d have done the clean job to Hogan in the main event, maybe cage match/escape finish to save pinfall, if he’s been champ going in. He beats Hogan for title somewhere in winter of 85/86, loses it at WM?

Or was Piper so anti-jobbing by any method? Hogan/Piper not having a one on one at WM is as big a miss as not doing Hogan/Flair at 8

Piper doing a job for Hogan would have killed his heat in his mind, and Hogan jobbing at that point would have been stupid. Better to put Bundy in there and lose with no baggage.
