It's freaking awesome but Hogan's acting is hilariously bad. Savage saves the segment and then some.

 

[Rusty Brookes]

And here's the version with the original botch with Beefcake running in too early

 

[Rusty Brookes]

Haha and here's Hulk's stuff up as well. And I've never figured out whether Akeem's bump was a botch

which is worse? his acting here, or his promo about the ref having plastic surgery when he lost the title to Andre?

This stuff looks more believable then the current product haha

the good ol' days of WCW PPVs on Main Event, with a slight discount for ordering early.

Nothing will top David Arquette winning the title.

Good old WCW lols

I can name something worser! The movie Surbaban Commando



Poor Doc Brown, I guess he had to pay for the DeLorean’s Hover conversion somehow… also pity The Undertaker still having to job to Hogan…

That's gold as well but here he is so over the top (and asking for the countdown on live TV) that it tips it over the top for me.

Worth noting, how beautifully the whole segment was cleaned up for future broadcast. I only saw the angle on Superstars of Wrestling so it wasn't live so I was never aware of the botches until reading about them years later.

Nothing beats the Shockmaster video the only thing that comes close was the AEW exploding death match.

Titus World Slide is easily the greatest thing we've seen since Shockmaster.

Voice of the Black Scorpion and the Shockmaster. He hated everyone when he used to get interviewed on Observer Live with Meltzer back in the Eyada days.

Back in the days of selling. These days you have people getting hit with baseball bats, barbed wire, glass, tables , exploding rings and they still get up.

Ole was great (his interviews were awesome in the Four Horsemen) but I'd be lying if I didn't say the Shockmaster segment was my favourite moment of his. I still nearly wet myself when he broke character and started laughing.

Absolutely love Ole. He's with Flair, Dusty and Terry Funk in my absolute favourite wrestlers to look up old footage of. Remarkably effective heel and capable as a baby face also.

Very underated IMO, only really due to the company he was in during his career.

Love that era of wrestling.
