The prototype for today's big babyface vs. babyface showdowns, this was supposed to be a passing of the torch moment. It didn't turn out that way in the long run. Fans weren't thinking about that in 1990, though. They were just excited to see two of their favorites get in the ring.

This match wasn't brilliantly worked by any means. It was slow. Most of the moves looked phony even by the standards of the day. Nevertheless, it was a great exercise in getting the crowd emotionally invested.

A giant contest of strength and endurance throughout, both men sold well, and the ending sequence, where Warrior overcame the "Hulk Up" that felled so many in the past, and just managed to barely beat Hogan, was well-done.
