You know what’s great? This podcast. And we have another fun filled episode for you today.
This is the first Halloween Havoc in the nWo era and the entire landscape of WCW has changed. Halloween Havoc 1996 took place October 27, 1996 from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Paradise (Las Vegas), Nevada in front of 10,000 fans.
These fans came out to see former rival and potential WCW Savior Macho Man Randy Savage take on the recently turned Hollywood Hulk Hogan for the WCW World title. But wait! The lovely Miss Elizabeth is at ringside in a neutral corner. Where will her allegiance lie?
If that’s not enough there are many groups at war tonight. The nWo, the IV Horsemen, the Dungeon of Doom, and a Cruiserweight division that will have you out of your seat. Plus, a surprise appearance closes out the show.
All of this plus your trios tag team champions usual banter and stories. Hear all about Matty Treats hanging out with Coolio. We discuss heel referees. How we would fix Revolution. Looking for old pay per view audio feeds. The best bodies in wrestling. And you know what’s great?
