push Mr Perfect, you cowards

That's another guy that sadly got burned by Hulk Hogan's endless parade of politics.

 

[Comrade Khan]

The Hogan/Slaughter did make sense. Slaughter turned against the USA and Hogan was the American hero that was gonna come back and put him in his place. That's booking 101

tbf, I have to agree here. Slaughter should never ever win that feud, especially not then

Even if it made sense, it wasn't good for business, flat out.

[Barry Poppins]

The story never should have happened.

Especially since it was a storyline that played into a war and people actually dying. It was blatant jingoism, plain and simple.

Alright this shit is gonna go on forever. I'm not debating Hogan/Slaughter now lmfao

Of course, the argument can always be that Jingoism has always been a thing in wrestling dating back to the 50s.

It was a bit of just being desperate since Warrior's run wasn't going as well as hoped, so they didn't want to do Hogan v Warrior 2, and they needed to create a villain for Hogan to fight.

I mean, fwiw, I think you might be thinking about that a bit too literally. Was it lame rah rah America stuff? hell yea. but I dont think any of that is a good argument for Slaughter going over
