Posted February 20, 200817 yr comment_5428310 This isn't a spectacular match, but I really enjoyed it. It is of course one of the most famous match ups in history, and it is fun to see it be really good. Hogan's offense actually looked good here, as he really was laying it in. Finish is especially nasty with Andre busting Hogan open huge, I am going to throw this up too. Best of Andre the Giant vol 6 (NJC 126)
December 3, 200816 yr comment_5436179 I'm not sure I saw the same match Phil nominated because I didn't see Hogan bleeding at the end. It looked like they might have matched up again the same night, but I'm not sure. The match I saw from TV was fine but nothing special. Andre didn't play to the crowd as much as he did in his best performances and the brawling never felt all that heated. I hope there's another match, because I'd like to get an Andre-Hogan one on the set.
June 14, 200916 yr comment_5440710 Andre the Giant vs. Hulk Hogan - Holy fuck, the atmosphere in this was insane as well. Way too much standing around to start. I know that they were trying to establish that they are both strong as hell but pushing each other’s hands in their faces for 5 minutes isn’t that interesting. Hogan picking up Andre was more impressive than picking up Abby. Andre was not as active in this one as the Khan match so the match just seems to pale in comparison to the two monster matches I had already seen. Also, while I appreciate Andre’s efforts, the fall out fo the ring opff the clothesline just looked unnatural and led to a sad countout. I am leaning on the fence about to fall off. (Also, no blood in this one)
