WWF Magazine
WWF Magazine launched in 1984 as the official wrestling magazine of the World Wrestling Federation and was originally known as WWF Victory Magazine through it’s first three issues. The April/May 1984 issue was the first issue known as the World Wrestling Federation Magazine (WWF Magazine) with world heavyweight champion Hulk Hogan on the cover. WWF Magazine continued to be a bi-monthly magazine until June 1987 when it became a monthly magazine. The magazine offered a “kayfabe” approach to wrestling, where the articles were all reported in character and followed or progressed professional wrestling feuds and story lines.
There also used to be an insert catalog full of WWF and Hulkamania gear that include plastic championship belts, Hulkster bandanas, t-shirts and much more for sale. Don’t forget about the Hulkster plush teddy bear!
