Not sure if you ever saw this before Scott, but I was reviewing some Orndorff/Hogan feud clips from youtube and I found something very interesting. Kind of like an alternate take of Hogan and Orndorff on the Flower Shop right before the big heel turn. Not sure if you've seen this before, or even if its blog worthy. However, I found it very interesting - I wonder if any of these "alternate takes" still exist in the vaults.

I don't know if that is one of those "lets overdub crowd noise because Sid got a babyface pop" moments, but do notice that in the first take - the one that aired before the heel turn, and was on the Hulkamania 2 video (and I guess on Superstars or whatever it was called back then) - that Orndorff delivery is much different than the one they used in the hype video (again I'm guessing Superstars) when they had Hogan recap the heel turn in his private gym. Where they have Orndorff sound a little more heelish. Also in the second one Hogan goes "they're ready" for Studd and Bundy, where in the first one Hogan just answers "Yeah" to Adonis' "Do you accept the challenge."
It's interesting, and I wonder if they did that a lot with the Flower Shops, Piper's Pits, and Snake Pits.
I think it’s just the magic of editing, personally. I can’t speak for the 80s, but I sat through a few tapings in the 90s and never saw them do extra takes for the Funeral Parlor. I did notice some minor editing differences, though, so the same thing certainly could have happened there.
