Greatest heel turn ever, nobody saw this coming, I thought Luger was go be the one to turn. They stayed kicking the Macho Man ass damn near every week
-
Hogan going heel is the greatest thing that happened in wrestling history.
Hogans steam was dying, he was getting stale then bam, heel turn and it made him bigger than ever.
-
The Greatest turn ever

Yeah, the way they build the storyline leading up to the match was great, Hall & Nash coming in from the WWF, and beating on people and then challenged Sting, Macho Man, Luger, and calling out Hogan too. At the time, a lot people thought they were bluffing, and thought they didn't have a 3rd person, and Hogan was gone for a while leading up to it too, so no one suspected it. It was best turn in wrestling history.
-
turn was so huge, it was on the national news
-
Greatest heel turn or turn of any kind in the history of the business.
It was something that came out of nowhere and other than Heenan putting the idea in your mind just before it happened nobody saw it coming.
-
Heenan almost ruined it and backtracked with the quickness.
I just remember running all over like "hulk hogan is a bad guy!!!"
The whole room went quiet and we all had the weebay going
-
That's so dope. Internet ruining wrestling surprises. Lol
I asked that cuz I finally watched this pay per view last week on the network and pretty much the whole night they hyped up the third member. Damn that's goat.
Also that Rey mysterious jr vs phychosis match to start was GOAT -

lol they banned white tee's at my school cuz a ? got jumped and everybody who did the stomping had one white tee's.
But this had to be the greatest shock in WCW history. I don't think nobdy saw Hulk putting the red n gold down and throwing on the black n white of the nWo. One of the greatest times of my childhood memory was watching wrestling. But yeah after this happened it was nWo everything!!! ? was a cult following for real. Then it got out of hand when they had all them other nWo factions showing up like the Latino world order SMH WcW was milking that cow a little to much.

I Watched the 1st Souled Out last nite on the network.

white tees tho? SMH
yeah nWo is the greatest faction of all time and its not even close. people dont give it that credit because "half the locker room joined" or "it became corny because of the wolfpac or lWo" yet praise DX for childish humor and mildly ? antics. -
"not only are we going to take over the wrestling business... we are going to destroy everything in our path.."
crazy how true that was.. -
? just reminded me how GOAT my childhood was, like forreal.

Val Venis damn near gettin kaientai'd was prolly the most dramatic tv scene of my childhood. I thought I knew it all, a real kid smark... But when that sword sliced down and raw ended, I was in kayfabe world.
Wrestling was so great back then that the mid card was main event material .
Al snow vs Bossman and Benoit vs booker t for the tv title could lead a program now -

Hell to the yeah. I swear it breathed new life into WCW. And fans throwing everything at them but the kitchen sink made it that much better.
If Cena went heel, the shock value wouldn't even come close to Hogan's heel turn. I honestly was expecting some mid level type to be the 3rd person. Someone you would be shocked, but 5mins later be over it. Hogan's heel turn went on for a week it seemed. And just kept gettin better and better.
