Did You Know Hulk Hogan...

Post by yourcrapsweak » Feb 19th, '11, 21:01

Did you know that WrestleMania III wasn't the first time Hogan slammed Andre? Check out this match from 1980, and note that Hogan slamming Andre gets NO reaction.

I knew that; plus, back when I was a kid I thought Hogan was the only person to ever do it; however, I recently saw a clip where Stan Hansen body slammed Andre as well....

Jerry Lawler also slammed Andre, here in Memphis in the 70's.

How in the world was that even possible? Did Andre go to the top rope? lol Would actually like to see a video of this one...

I'm also a bit skeptical. I'm not saying it didn't happen, it's just hard for me to picture. I knew Hogan did it before WM3, and I knew my boy Hansen took Andre for the ride, but this is the first I've heard of Lawler doing it...

Andre was a lot smller back then, compared to his WWF days. But it's kinda like folklore here in Memphis. Every old-timer claims to have been in the Mid-South Coliseum the night Lawler slammed Andre the Giant.
