On the 53rd episode of the 24 Inch Podcast (Season 4 Episode 8), Steve Bennett and Dave Rowlands take a deep dive into the season premier of Saturday Night's Main Event on 10-29-1988. On this night, Hulk Hogan wrestles Haku with the lovely Miss Elizabeth at his side.
At the top, it's just Paula and Steve. We learned Paula has started third grade, a new season of cheerleading, and went to see the new Beetlejuice movie.
After the break, Steve catches up with Davey Caffeine or Hollywood (FL) Dave as some know him. After some jibber jabber, Steve and Dave go over the bio of Haku and the Baltimore Arena. Last, Dave tells us what the Hulkster was up to in October of 1988.
Steve reads the news from October of 1988 while Dave cracks wise and adds his thoughts on a month filled with news from the upcoming presidential election, a major debut on television, and one of the biggest moments in the history of Major League Baseball (yes, Dave had no clue).
Steve and Dave break down the entire card from SNME on October 29, 1988, including a match between Jake Roberts and RicK Rude, a tag team title match, and a showcase squash for the Big Bossman.
Finally, Steve and Dave break down the huge main event of Haku vs. Hulk Hogan.
