[1989-04-02-WWF-Wrestlemania V] Randy Savage vs Hulk Hogan

[cactus]

Savage is the master of mind games and heel psychology, and Hogan is a pro at working the crowd with his hammy theatrics, so this worked a treat. Hogan is able to do a serviceable job keeping up with Savage when they trade holds, but the real meat of this main event is the drama involving Miss Elizabeth. Savage uses her as a human shield and this gets a shocked reaction from the crowd. She was fantastic in this and made this feel like a huge spectacle. Eventually she ejected from ringside and Savage takes control of Hogan. Hogan kicks out of Macho's finish and does his Hulk-up to win back the strap. 

★★★½
