What's with Hogan's right hand? Absolutely no bicep tensing going on there.

I'm guessing from everyone else's eyeline, that this is a reporter/behind the scenes shot either before or after the official one.

Looks like Ali's trying to push it into place

Love that even though Ali is 6ft2 and Hogan is 6ft6 ish, they still have them both stood on a box to make them look even bigger! Classic Vince McMahon..

Hogan lie time - Hogan was reluctant to shake Liberace’s hand because Liberace was HIV Positive, Hogan knowing that 5 months before Liberace did

Literally seconds before by the looks of things.

My main takeaway from this is that I really want that massive fur coat.

That's a great photo! Two polar opposites in style, but both masters of their art locked in battle...

Always been curious as to how Bret was allowed to do this match? Anyone know how it came about?

I think it's because he was their champ, had a lot of pull, did it on a day off and everybody loves Terry Funk, so why not?

It wasn't unusual for WWF guys to be working limited outside bookings at that time anyway - it's not just Bret that worked that show; Mankind wrestled Sabu earlier on the card, WWF talent worked the Brian Pillman Memorial Show the following two years, and WWF guys regularly worked USWA in '96/'97.

Exactly, different time. Also, I'd imagine there was a lot of respect there with it being Funk's 'retirement' show, too. 

It's such a weird and fun card. I've seen stuff like the Bret/Funk match and Dory Jr./RVD but it'd be nice to see it all. I know there are DVD versions out and about but it'd be a good addition to the WWE Network one day (the Bret/Funk match is already there as a Hidden Gem so I'm assuming they'd have the rights).
