Things heat up this week on Grenade #182 as the former Mega Powers begin the "my side of the story" vignettes where Randy Savage puts up a good argument as to why Hulk Hogan was "showboating & hotdogging", meanwhile the Hulkster cuts one of the heel-est babyface promos perhaps in wrestling history. Is there lust in the eyes of Hulk? You be the judge after listening to a series of interviews throughout this episode. Plus, the 4 headline matches for WrestleMania V are announced, the Rockers vs. Brain Busters turns into an all out brawl, Tag Champs Demolition defend against the Powers of Pain, Jim Neidhart takes on Honky Tonk Man (with appearances by Greg Valentine & Bret Hart), Rick Rude shows off his new tights on the Brother Love Show as he prepares for a showdown with IC Champ The Ultimate Warrior, we have ourselves a John Studd & Andre the Giant staredown, the Red Rooster gives us what may be his first cock-a-doodle-doo as he issues a challenge to Bobby Heenan, a special 3-Hour "Face to Face" edition of Prime Time Wrestling features some interesting debates, & more!
