Maybe I missed you guys saying it, but wasn't the Freebirds leaving the UWF partly due to them exchanging shootish comments on TV with Missy Hyatt that had to be edited off?

That was right before they left yes where Michael Hayes said that Missy Hyatt's mouth was so big she could suck the chrome off a bumper which was funny because Dusty said the same thing and he credited Dusty for saying it

Do you guys notice the influence of Hulkamainia on the other promotions? With the "American Made" references in the promos and the Rock not Roll references.

I don't know how much of that related to Hogan but wrestling was full of patriotism and rock & roll anyway
