SHOW SUMMARY: In this edition of the Wade Keller Hotline, PWTorch editor Wade Keller continues the Hulk Hogan-themed episodes with a three-part, nearly three hour series on Hulk Hogan’s WCW Nitro era from start to finish.
Wade discusses those years with the author of the definitive book on the WCW Nitro years, aptly called “Nitro.” (Order a copy HERE.)
The series begins with a look at Hogan’s arrival in WCW and how he was received and the difference he made. Then topics include his importance to the launch of Nitro and the early success of Nitro, the build-up to the heel turn that almost wasn’t with behind the scenes insights on how it almost didn’t happen, his relationship with Scott Hall & Kevin Nash, his relationship with Eric Bischoff, the seeming sabotage of Bret Hart once he arrived, dealing with the arrival of Vince Russo, and much more throughout.
Find information on all of the books authored by Guy Evans on pro wrestling HERE.
