They were the brunt of so many jokes, but they took it all in stride. Kudos to all 3 sisters for being good sports about it. I remember them being in the audience for an episode of Tuesday Night Titans when Randy Savage was the guest. They did a "Questions from the Audience" segment. One of the sisters asked "If you're so macho, how come you haven't beaten Hulk Hogan yet?" Savage replies "What's that you got in your shirt? George Steele's turnbuckle stuffing?"

Mr. America
It was following their match at WM XIX in which Vince McMahon would tell Hogan he was gonna pay em to rot at home for the remainder of his contract.From there Stephanie McMahon would announce that a new superstar is coming aboard the Smackdown brand which would be then revealed as Mr. America. Complete with full Hulk Hogan mannerisms and the old Real American theme.This would irate Vince who called out Hogan on his BS with him threatening to unmask the All American hero along with aid from Roddy Piper and Sean O Haire.This would lead to Mr. America vs Roddy Piper at JDay.But prior to this showdown, Piper would get in alot of heat when he would attack a ''fan'' with him tearing off his fake leg.This fan would be revealed as Zach Gowen.
Mr. American would go on and defeat Hot Rod at the PPV with aid from a pipe but this feud wasnt over by a long shot.Vince was dead set on revealing to the world that in fact Mr. America was Hulk Hogan that he made em take a lie detector test on SD. The end result being that he is ''not'' Hulk Hogan.Vince failing the test was gold.After this is when they focused more on Gowen with the gimmick being on its last legs.The end for Mr. America would come in late June when Vince would fire em for revealing his true self to the crowd a week prior. In kayfabe, Vince secretly filmed the moment and aired it the following week on Smackdown. In reality Hogan would leave following pay issues.
Overall...Bad gimmick but Vince in the crazy heel role along with heel Piper back on WWE TV helped this a ton.Although looking back this angle would lead to the dreaded Vince/Steph feud later in the year.Also poor Sean O' Haire. Dude had a ton of potential but was just a side character throughout this thing.
What are your memories/thoughts of Mr. America? Share them below!

Why did they make him Mr. America again? Was it cause of Marvel and the Hulk name? Although they immediately went to another Marvel hero (Captain America), as a middle finger to Marvel.
