Royal Rumble 89

Harley Race was injured in a match with Hulk Hogan when he dived onto a table and suffered internal injuries. Haku was named King in his place since Race was going to retire. Race then returned sometime around October 1988, and there was slight hints if Race and Haku had any tension since both were managed by Heenan.

 

The match was set for the Rumble, with the winner being the true king. Haku won, Race soon left again, and thats all she wrote

Heenan cheered for both men during the match

Cawthon's site says after his return, he fought a bunch of jobbers, haku 3 times and then went away (Nov - Jan)
