I always liked Henning but he didn't do too much as US champ. Wahoo, however...

while Hennig was a great wrestler, and a fine entertainer.....his title reign began by beating Steve McMichael.....a sad state of affairs, if you ask me.....

Wahoo should continue on for another round, at least.....

Not to mention this title reign began right after he was the first man ever to turn on the Horsemen

I loved Henning and thought he was truly one of the geatest wrestlers in his day, but as a US champion, it doesn't hold much weight when compared to Wahoo......
