Loss Posted December 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2011 Gene Okerlund brings Hulk Hogan is coming out for an interview. Hogan is still in his neckbrace and is prepared to go after The Giant, but a lady in the audience throws powder at him and starts hitting him with a cane. WAIT, THAT'S NO LADY, THAT'S THE TASKMASTER! Giant rips off Hogan's neckbrace and snaps his neck again. But then, we get the awesome part, as Sullivan shaves off Hogan's mustache! Hot angle. Bischoff has no idea how to sell this in a way that gets over the impact, and when Hogan is ringside, the camera angles give away that something is about to happen, but that's WCW for you, and this is still one of the best WCW angles of the year. The Nasty Boys and American Males come in to make the save, but get cut off by chokeslams from the Giant. They tease cutting Hogan's hair, and Heenan is having a field day.

Tim Evans Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 This isn't exactly Paul Jones cutting off Jimmy Valiant's beard but it's still a good angle. Kevin Sullivan looks like the Flying Nun. Giant looks bad ass beating up fools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-P Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Heenan going crazy is the highlight. What was this fascination of guys dressing up like women to attack Hogan ? On the same show, the debut match of Eddie vs Dean was interrupted so we can watch Hogan arrive in the building and cut a shitty "dude, brotha" promo with Jimmy Hart. Ah, WCW...

flyonthewall2983 Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Vince would have treated the mustache coming off like it was the Rapture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dooley Posted November 10, 2013 Report Share Posted November 10, 2013 Vince would have treated the mustache coming off like it was the Rapture. If nothing else, we would have got a redux of the Andre haircut angle where he was was "raped of his dignity". Â This may be one of the only times during 94-95 where Hogan allowed himself to look vulnerable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zenjo Posted April 17, 2014 Report Share Posted April 17, 2014 Had Hogan finally figured out that moustaches weren't popular anymore? Don't be ridiculous, it's an angle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Bischoff is acting like Hogan will die if he wrestles the Giant in his condition. Hogan doesn't see the Giant out, so as he heads to the back to find him, WHAM! Powder to the eyes from an old lady in the front row. The Taskmaster beats the shit out of Hogan and Hart with the cane and the Giant is out. Sullivan SHAVES OFF THE MOUSTACHE in a crazy scene. Then Zodiac whips out a pair of scissors(!) in a cute nod to history, but just stands over him like an idiot instead of actually following through. Angles like this are why I give credence to Sullivan's explanation of using the Dungeon of Doom as a way to appeal to Hulk before unleashing crazier follow-up angles. It's hard to imagine the Hogan of 1994 through summer of '95 agreeing to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrzfn Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Between Sherri, Flair, and now Sullivan, someone must have really figured cross dressing was a great way to get at Hulk Hogan in this era. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
