Hulk Hogan and Big Boss Man had 11 cage matches throughout the house show circuit in 1989 -- including an awesomely violent one on March 18th-- but their twelfth cage encounter was nationally broadcast on Saturday Night’s Main Eventin May. It’s a strong match, but one most memorable for Hogan pulling off a Superplex off the top of the cage, which i...
The heel stealing the babyface’s championship belt is a common trope in pro wrestling title feuds, but Mr. Perfect went above and beyond the call of duty when he was feuding with Hulk Hogan for the WWF Championship. He didn’t just steal Hogan’s title -- he smashed it with a hammer on television. It’s a real shocker of a moment that birthed a long-s...
Jake “The Snake” Roberts is considered by many -- fans and wrestlers alike -- to be one of the greatest heels of all time. His dark side is on full displayduring his pre-match attack on perennial babyface Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat on SNME.

After Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior crossed paths in the Royal Rumbledays earlier, the two teamed up in a tag match against Mr. Perfect and The Genius, which Hogan and Warrior of course won. However, in the post-match clash, the heels would attack the babyfaces, and in the process Warrior would accidentally deliver a clothesline to Hogan. It was ...
The ninth episode in the series opened with Hulk Hogan defending his WWF Championship against Paul Orndorff in a steel cage -- credited as the first time WWF aired a cage match on TV for free. Beyond historical value, the match is remembered for its classic finish, where Hogan and Ordorff both escaped the cage at the same exact time, prompting a re...
More than just a rip-off of The Road Warriors, Demolition were actually pretty good and super over with crowds. In mid 1989, Demolition was feuding with Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard, otherwise known as The Brain Busters. Their title match at the previous SNMEresulted in a DQ, so the follow-up was 2/3 Falls, which The Brain Busters actually mana...
Randy Savage made his bones as a heel. But by 1987, Macho Man became popular enough to justify a face turn. On the 12th episode of Saturday Night’s Main Event, Hulk Hogan ran out to save Savage during a post-match beatdown from Honky Tonk Man, and the pair subsequently formed a dream tag team, The Mega Powers.

The 20th episode of Saturday Night’s Main Eventends with a one-minute bout between The Red Rooster and The Brooklyn Brawler, but before that The Rockers took on The Brain Busters in a wild, nearly 10-minute match. Consider it the original Young Bucks vs. FTR as Shawn Michaels and Marty Janetty used their speed against Blanchard and Anderson’s more ...
At the 1992 Royal Rumble, Sid Justice eliminated Hulk Hogan to a surprising amount of cheers from the crowd. Hogan, in heelish fashion, flipped out and helped Ric Flair eliminate Justice. After that, on the 30th SNME, Hogan and Justice would team up in a match against Ric Flair and The Undertaker, during which Sid would walk out on his partner matc...
The Macho Man and The Hitmanonly clashed in singles competition four times, including non-televised house shows, but the best one that fans can actually watch on the WWE Network was on Saturday Night’s Main Event. Randy Savage vs. Bret Hart would go 12 minutes and prove to be a fun, competitive bout as the rising star Hart would take on the megasta...
