Dave, like usual, has mayhem to report. After our update on all things Hollywood, the guys give the bio of Don Muraco. Then, Dave tells us what the Hulkster was up to in June of 1985. Steve reads the news from June of 1985 while Dave cracks wise and adds his thoughts on a month filled with baseball stuff, jersey numbers, and diplomacy. Steve and Dave break down the entire card from the 06-21-85 event at MSG, a strong debut by Leaping Lanny, the start of one of the greatest runs in company history, and a ladies match that brings the house down. Finally, Steve and Dave break down the huge main event of Hulk Hogan vs. Don Muraco for the WWF Heavyweight Championship, in a steel cage.
