I am, first and foremost, a big time pro wrestling fan and observer, but the thing I want to ask you is based on a rumor or urban legend that has been floating around since Wrestlemania III in Detriot. the rumor goes as follows: Before the match Andre the Giant gave an so-so answer to Vince McMahon and hulk hogan about losing the match, the main event of that historic indoor show. Problem was Hulk Hogan didnt know what the hell would happen when the match started.
He did know what Andre would do if he decided to say the hell with it and want the title. Many fans were unaware of this mind you, they thought Hogan would win and Andre would lose, Hogan was scared as hell in the opening matches because he did not know who would win or lose. He knew what Andre may be thinking and knew he may change his mind.
so, according to this source of mine no one not even Vince McMahon knew what would happen. It was totally unscripted except to the end. No one knew.
Is that rumor true? Did Andre really say he was going to lose or agree to lose or maybe change his mind at the last second. He was a big time pro and had been on top for many many years since the late 60's. He had a lot of clout and could do these things if he so wanted too.
