This Day in Wrestling History
This day the wrestling world changed as the biggest star of the 80's made his debut in the enemy aka WCW. His name Hulk Hogan his first night he fought Flair for the world title and won the match in his debut at Bash at the Beach. Stunning Steve vs Ricky Steamboat in a great match for the US title (Nerd Note: this was Steve's last year in WCW). Also on the card Pretty Wonderful (Paul Roma & Paul Orndoroff) vs Tag Champions Catus Jack & Kevin Sullivan. Were Pretty Wonderful won the titles for the first time. Back to the main event as it was a huge deal cause hogan was the first person to jump ship to the WCW won the world title in his debut defeating a top rival Ric Flair who was world champion and had Women & Liz at ringside with him and Hulk had Shaq & Jimmy Hart so the ring was full of people. This also marked a turing point for WCW as it started an era that didnt end until the company did it was the Hulk Hogan era which helped cause the death of the company in my opinion.
