Short summary

One of a few Friday Night showings of 'The Main Event' on NBC features the WrestleMania III re-match between WWE CHAMPION Hulk Hogan and 'The 8th Wonder of the World' Andre The Giant. Randy 'Macho Man' Savage with Miss Elizabeth takes on WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION The Honky Tonk Man with Jimmy Hart. WORLD TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONS Strike Force (Tito Santana & Rick Martel) take on former champs The Hart Foundation (Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart).

According to a 2017 interview he did on "Sitting Ringside with David Penzer", Earl Hebner said that he injured his rotator cuff when Hulk Hogan threw him out of the ring over André the Giant, Ted DiBiase, and Virgil. After that night, Earl had to spend six to eight weeks in rehab.

There were nine matches on the card for this event, but only the last three were shown on TV.

The Stroke Force vs Hart Foundation match had just started when the show ran out of time and signed off. The conclusion of the match would not be legitimately shown until the show was uploaded to the on-demand section of the WWE Network in 2014. (Bootleg footage of the conclusion did exist, though.)
