Hogan, WrestleMania IX

[fondoffilm]

What exactly is the story behind Hogan's jacked up eye?

How did Hulk Hogan get that black eye at Wrestlemania 9?
There are actually three stories given to explain it.

The story given by WWF officials was that he was is a jet-ski accident. The story given on WWF television was that Ted Dibiase hired a group to attack Hogan so he would be weakened before their match. The other story given is that he was punched by Randy Savage while they were arguing about Savage's ex-wife Elizabeth. Savage believed Hogan was sleeping with Elizabeth while she was still married to him and confronted Hogan about it backstage. Savage apologized later on but bad blood still remains between the two over Elizabeth. It seems that the legit reason is the jet-ski accident.

The Jet Ski accident is the truth although for a couple years the fight with Savage was believed.

I didnt know the supposed Savage/Hogan fight was over sleeping with Liz, I thought it was that Savage blamed Hogan for their divorce because she divorced him right after staying a week at the Hogan House with Linda while Hulk was away filming Mr. Nanny and Savage was on the road.

He got punched in the eye for refusing to job in that cameo in Gremlins 2: The New Batch a year earlier.:shifty:
