NOTABLES:
1--ANDRE HAS THE DUBIOUS DISTINCTION OF HAVING THE SHORTEST WWF TITLE REIGN EVER. (IT WAS LESS THAN 60 SECONDS AS HE SURRENDERED IT TO THE MILLION DOLLAR MAN AFTER A CONTROVERCIAL WIN OVER HULK HOGAN INVOLVING THE TWIN OF REFEREE DAVE HEPNER PRIOR TO WRESTLEMANIA IV.)
2--ANDRE HAS THE RECORD FOR THE LONGEST RUNNING UNDEFEATED STREAK IN WRESTLING HISTORY SPANNING OVER 15 YEARS. DESPITE THIS RECORD HE NEVER RECEIVED A TITLE SHOT UNTIL WRESTLEMANIA III WHICH CAUSED HIM HIS FIRST EVER LOSS AND FIRST EVER BODY SLAM.
3--AFTER FEUDING VIOLENTLY WITH THE BOBBY HEENAN FAMILY FOR SEVERAL YEARS (MOSTLY WITH HEENAN, KEN PATERA, AND BIG JOHN STUDD), ANDRE REAPPEARED IN 1987 WITH HEENAN AS HIS MANAGER AND TURNED ON LONG-TIME FRIEND HULK HOGAN.
