12. Hulk Hogan vs. Randy Savage
“You made a lot of promises to The Macho Man, didn’t ya? Promises that you didn’t keep.”
–“Macho Man” Randy Savage
Macho Man and the Hulkster weren’t always rivals; in fact, they were best of friends. The Macho Man had no problem running into the ring with a steel chair to defend Hogan from his foes. Things were all good, but the tension between Hulk, Savage, and Miss Elizabeth was undeniable and sparked an unforgettable rivalry.
Their issues came to a head when Miss Elizabeth got injured in a match and was carried off backstage by Hulk. Savage, feeling his blood pressure come to a boil, ran back to throw down with Hulk, setting the stage for the WrestleMania V marquee matchup. Hogan and Savage went toe-to-toe, with Hogan almost losing the match. But, in true Hulk fashion, he hulked up, pointed his finger and dropped the leg, finishing Savage off. Oh yeah, brother!
