Hulk Hogan's 5 Greatest Matches

#4. Hulk Hogan vs Macho Man Randy Savage (Wrestlemania 5)

The Mega Powers collided at Wrestlemania 5

"The Macho Man" Randy Savage is undoubtedly one of the greatest in ring storytellers in professional wrestling history. It was almost impossible to have a bad match with The Macho Man when he was at the top of his game.

Speaking of which, at Wrestlemania 5, Macho Man certainly was at the top of his game.

Back when wrestling storylines were not known to have the greatest depth, this match had one of the greatest backstories ever told by the WWE. The two most popular stars of the WWE at that time had been a tag team in the past known as 'The Mega Powers'.

However, over time Macho Man would grow jealous of the friendship that Hogan shared with his wife and manager, Miss Elizabeth. Ultimately reaching his breaking point, The Macho Man would attack Hogan.

This story was booked perfectly for over a year, and such long term booking is rarely seen in professional wrestling in this day and age. The two former friends would face off at Wrestlemania 5 for Savage's WWF World Heavyweight Championship.

On that night, Macho Man brought his signature fast-paced, all-action style and Hogan kept up with Savage throughout the contest. Miss Elizabeth's presence at ringside and her partaking in trying to help both men just added to the intensity and tension surrounding the match.
