WWF World Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan vs The Genius - SNME 11/89

Huge fan of The Genius' promos. Shockingly I have never seen this match. I LOVED THIS!!! Pure camp but it was well GENIUS!!! The left handed handshake attempt had me rolling. The Genuis frolicking in the ring was too funny. Hogan tossing him out of the ring on the lock up was a great bump by Lanny. Genius slaps Hogan hard does some cartwheels. Hogan gets this wicked look and just blasts Genius great stuff kicking ass. Mr. Perfect waltzes down and Genius takes control with dropkicks and steel posts shot. Genius Moonsault! Hulk up! Genius eye rake and back take stops Hulk Up no one can do that. Jesse calling those moves by the Genius, "Hogan tactics" was funny because it is true. HOLY SHIT BUMP WHERE HOGAN BODY SLAMS HIM OUT TO FLOOR! Mr. Perfect blasts him with the belt and Hogan loses by count out. Popular 89 finish for Hogan. Amazing campy Hogan match with some great action, awesome bump and finish. ****

I'm glad you liked this. I really enjoyed this match, and kind of wish the Genius character had more matches like this against other top stars of the time.

This match mortified me as a 7 year old. HOGAN LOSES?!?!?!?!
