Episode 109: January 1988 WWF w/Saturday Night's Main Event! Andre Chokes Out Hulk!

The Wrestling Memory Grenade

We kick of the 1988 WWF Project with a BANG! Right out of the gate it's the January 2, 1988 edition of SATURDAY NIGHT'S MAIN EVENT! In a rematch, WWF Champion Hulk Hogan defends against King Kong Bundy (With Andre the Giant in this corner!). And, MAJOR ANGLE ALERT - As Andre "chokes the life" out of the Champion! Plus, Tag Champs Strike Force defend their belts in a 2 out of 3 fall match versus The Bolsheviks, Jake "The Snake" Roberts battles Sika (and a jar of mustard), Koko B. Ware meets Greg "The Hammer" Valentine... The Beefcake/Valentine feud continues on after the Barber cuts Jimmy Hart's hair, Gorilla & Bobby discuss The Royal Rumble, Mr. Fuji's bowler hat, and where, oh where has MATILDA gone? President Jack Tunney weighs in on the recent abduction of the British Bulldogs' mascot by Bobby Heenan and his Islanders. All of that, and so much more, on this, only the FIRST WEEK of 1988!
