1984 was a huge year for #WWE, as Vince McMahon planned a national expansion for the then WWF that would change the #wrestling landscape forever, and the centerpiece of that push was Hulk Hogan.
Of course the aggressive business tactics of McMahon made him many enemies across the industry, including AWA owner Verne Gagne, who McMahon had lured Hogan away from with a promise of more fame and fortune.
So as the legend goes as told by The Iron Sheik, who had a strong relationship with Gagne after Gagne gave him his start in the business in 1972, was that he was offered 100k to shoot break Hulk Hogan's leg. Sheik turned down the offer, reportedly citing loyalty to the McMahon family instead, but... Imagine It, what if Iron Sheik had taken the money and shoot broken Hulk Hogan's leg, keeping himself as the World Champion instead of dropping that title to Hulk Hogan in 1984.
