Prior to the formation of the team, André the Giant had been engaged in a feud with Hulk Hogan.

According to the storyline, André was tired of Hogan being the top wrestler in the WWF and was jealous of Hogan's reign as WWF Champion.

On an episode of Piper's Pit, André turned on Hogan by attacking him and challenging him to a match for the championship.

Hogan and André faced each other in the main event of WrestleMania III on March 29, 1987.

Hogan won the match, but the feud remained unsettled.
