5. Ted DiBiase v. Hogan (lumberjack match - The commentators discuss this match as if Hogan is still champion, but the
actual match actually occurred after Hogan had lost the title. This match is relevant because the lumberjacks that
Hogan had the most problems from were the Killer Bees working as heels! It’s impossible to tell whether these were the
real Bees though, as they worked the entire match wearing their masks. This might have possibly been a try out
by the WWF to see what the reaction would be to the Killer Bees turning heel. It never went any further than this
match though. Philadelphia Spectrum 3/12/88)
