AUGUST 1990
Cover Story: Two years after he passed the WWF torch to Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan had it back and was passing it again in front of about 68,000 friends at SkyDome in Toronto. “WrestleMania VI: Complete Coverage Of The Ultimate Warrior’s Ultimate Victory” chronicled a rare fan favorite vs. fan favorite WWF title match, one in which I-C champion Warrior cleanly pinned Hogan for Hogan’s World championship. Warrior thus became just the third man (Andre the Giant, Tony Atlas) in 10 years to cleanly pin the “Hulkster.” Their match would be voted the year’s finest by PWI readers. And it would take Hogan all of 51 weeks to get his hands around that golden torch again.
