Not long into his run with the Georgia-based promotion, the Hulkster had already won the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, squashing everyone in his way.

On the rare occasions where he would lose the title, it was a question of when not if, he would regain it.

In 1996, Hogan shockingly turned heel, revealing himself as the third man, teaming with fellow former WWF stars Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, to form the NWO.

Whilst the ending was awful for many Hulkamaniacs, Hogan's turn ushered in the most infamous faction in wrestling, and made changes to the industry that are still being felt today.
