As we go into on this weeks show, Warrior and Undertaker did really good business after Mania 7, much better than Hogan and Slaughter did with the title, so the idea that Warrior couldn't draw on top is a total myth.
The promotion was getting colder, as shown in 1990 for both Hogan, Warrior and the NBC ratings. But when you look at the details, its not as cut and dry as history claims.

Cool man that's really interesting. I will admit that I bought into the "Warrior couldn't draw" myth perpetuated by Hogan and the WWE. Cheers.
