WCW Vault Presents 'WCW vs. nWo in 1996' (Mixtape)

Image
WWE's 'WCW Vault' YouTube channel has taken it back to the year 1996 (more specifically the second half of it) to relive the beginning of the 'WCW vs. nWo' war that changed Pro Wrestling forever!!! To some modern day fans it can be difficult to truly explain how significant the war between WCW and the nWo was to the landscape of the business at the time and even how this moment in time would go on to change the future of it as well. Watching this compilation mixtape really does bring back memories of when Pro Wrestling was fresh and truly unpredictable which is something the modern day scene is missing!!! Watching Hulk Hogan, the industries biggest babyface at the time, drop a leg drop on 'Macho Man' Randy Savage, and turn heel, is still one of the most shocking moments in Pro Wrestling history and it was certainly shocking to everyone who grew up watching Hogan at that point!!! The whole angle worked well because everyone...

Hulkamania Will Live Forever: A Tribute To Hulk Hogan!!!

Image
Before we go on our, hopefully, brief hiatus we couldn't go off grid without mentioning the recent passing of one of Pro Wrestling's most iconic, and charismatic, figures Hulk Hogan. To say that Hogan, real name Terry Bollea, didn't have his controversies would be the understatement of the decade however if you grew up watching Wrestling, in the 80's and 90's, it would be difficult to ignore Hogan's impact on the business and his mainstream appeal throughout that time. Seeing people you grew up watching on television, and who played big parts in something you love, pass away is always hard and Hogan's passing is a difficult one for all of us at R.A.W Media. We wish to remember the Hulk Hogan that changed Pro Wrestling forever. The man that main evented the inaugural 'Wrestlemania', slammed Andre The Giant, created the New World Order and had one of the greatest comebacks, of all time, in the early 00...
