| Hey guys, now that Backlash is history, I want to take you back to 7 years ago this month: Hulk Hogan wins the Undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Championship for a 6th time @ Backlash 2002 Here's what happend: The evening came down to Hulk Hogan stepping into the ring to attempt to take the Undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Championship away from Triple H. The two superstars glared each other down and locked up in the ring. The Game tossed Hogan into the corner and stared down the icon. Moments later, Hogan returned the favor and flexed his pythons while Triple H regained his feet. The match worked to a virtual stalemate early on. Hogan took the edge by flipping The Game over the top rope to the outside. Hogan delivered a crushing suplex onto the hard ground. Hogan maintained control from there, until Triple H zeroed in on a weakness to exploit. The Cerebral Assassin directed his blows to Hogan's left knee, which wore a knee brace. The Hulkster tried to get some offense going, but each time Triple H stopped the rally with a shot to the knee. Triple H applied a leg lock and used the ropes to get some leverage. Hogan screamed in pain, and after several moments he was able to squirm out of the hold. Triple H put Hogan in a sleeper hold, but the Hulkster used all his energy to get out of it and began to get things rolling. He hit Triple H with a boot to the face and followed with a leg drop! Hogan covered Triple H, but the ref was busy fending off Chris Jericho, who ran to ringside with a steel chair! Y2J shoved the ref down then clocked Hogan in the skull with the chair! Triple H came over and planted a facebuster on Y2J, forcing him from the ring! Hogan got back up and took down The Game with a boot once again. But Triple H got up and subdued Hogan and landed a Pedigree! The ref came over to make the count, but the Undertaker raced down and clocked the ref! Taker than smashed The Game with the steel chair! Hogan got to his feet and punched Taker out of the ring. The Hulkster bounced off the ropes, hit Triple H with the leg drop and covered him for the win! The Hulkster captured his sixth World Wrestling Federation Championship! After a short celebration, a bloody Triple H faced Hogan with a menacing look. Finally, The Game extended his right hand and congratulated Hogan on the win. The Game then turned toward the entrance ramp and directed his hatred toward the locker room. Meanwhile, Hogan celebrated with his new championship as Backlash drew to a close! and now, 7 years later, Randy Orton has def. Triple H in a 6-Man Tag Team Match and he is now the NEW WWE Heavyweight Champion for a 3rd time and as for Hogan, he is still caught up in the family drama. and that's your look @ a moment from 7 years ago this month: Hollywood Hulk Hogan wins the Undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Championship for a 6th time against Triple Hand now, here's the match: Part 1 Part 2 Commentary by Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler with Ring Introduction by "The Fink" Howard Finkel | |
