So sometimes I like to consider myself a "know it all" when it comes to classic wrestling. Sure I know I dont know everything but I really enjoy this time period and do a lot of time studying it and watching old tapes. Recently I just found this..... Its the card (minus Flair vs Race) for the first Starrcade. Pay close attention to the matches at the bottom...See it? Yea just 2 months before the "Birth of Hulkamania" Hulk Hogan was booked to be in a tag match on the undercard of Starrcade...... All I can say is WOW

Irony at it's best. Hogan working a filler match at one of the biggest PPV events of the sport he helped pioneer.

-- Hogan: "I'm on the verge of something BIG here, brother! What're you doing putting me in a warm-up match with Dick Slater, brother?!"
Crockett: "Sh'up Terry, you're an AWA guy!"
(Crockett walks away...... Hulk watches.. . . . )
Hulk: "I'll show him, brother. Just you wait brother, I'll show him!".

I also noticed 5 wrestlers booked in the first Starrcade were also booked for the first Wrestlemania (Hogan, Steamboat, Piper, Valentine, Orton)
