Nineteen eighty-three and even before that he had a tag team in mid south with ted to be aussie winning the mid south tag team.

Plans order was he was one of the principal individuals involved in the promotion of the very first wrestlemainia of course he. He teamed with roddy piper against hulk. Hogan and mr t. at the inaugural wrestlemainia eighty five. But then on top of that he is one of the key components that made wrestle a nut wrestlemainia but but hulkamania work. He was the complete diametric opposite of hulk hogan an attitude right. He was still charismatic. Abbadi guy sure. All of that but orndorff was in personality. The perfect foil for for hulk hogan if i if i remember correctly and i didn't if i remember correctly After the wrestlemainia match roddy piper blamed orndorff for the loss so that led into an angle where orndorff aligned with hulk hogan only to turn on hogan after that in orndorff joined the heenan family.
