Bob Backund vs. Samoan #3
1983 – WWF – 8:32
- Hogan returns to the WWF at the end of the match.
DKS, what was the story of Hulk Hogan leaving
the WWF the first time? I do not know the story of
Hulk Hogan prior to his win from the Iron Sheik for the
title.

In 1981 Hogan was offered the Thunderlips role in Rocky III. Vince McMahon Sr. said he couldn't take it because he didn't want his wrestlers being actors. Hogan then was fired. He then spent the next few years in the AWA and New Japan until Vince McMahon Jr. took over the WWF and lured him back. Hulk was WWF champ 3 weeks after returning.
