Posted August 27, 20169 yr comment_5765454 WWF World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan vs Rick Rude - WWF Boston 1/9/88 One of the matches I have always wanted to see because Hogan/Rude is pretty rare (rumor is Rude did not want to job to Hogan because that's when you lose your value in WWF is once you have the Hogan series). Besides the fun, arm wrestling match that breaks out in the beginning of the match, this is a very routine Hogan. Beats up heel sends him running with atomic drop, blasts Heenan. They console each other. Rude uses hair and Heenan trips Hogan to lead to heat segment. Chinlock and Rude gets his Argentine Backbreaker, which is impressive. Hulk Up! Legdrop win. Posedown and then DiBiase & Virgil really do a number on Hogan busting him open. Really damn good sell job by Hogan. It is too bad they never really did Hogan/DiBiase blowoff.
