The fuck it ain't. Vince got to launch Rock and Wrestling and Shiek got to be immortalized as the person Hogan beat for the belt. Everybody won.
still with that being said Sheik could have still got a 3 month reign lost to Hulk & Vince would have still have his Rock & Wrestling.

I mean yeah, but it was a different business then. Superstar didn't even get an extended run with the belt and he was doing monster business, heels just didnt hold the belt in WWF.

The entire angle was that Backlund was supposed to get an immediate rematch but was too hurt and that's why Hogan stepped in. If you wait then they'd have to run the rematch with Bob and they were wont to job him twice, they already protected him by having the throw in the towel finish.

Plus the whole point was to get the belt to Hogan as fast as possible to capitalize on him in the way that the AWA wouldn't. Giving him the belt immediately was the way to show that in a way that could've been watered down by having him work matches for months before he got the belt.
