Big Bubba Vs. Lex Luger

Sup, Bubba?! On this episode of The Bubba Cast, we fire up the time machine and head back to Orlando, Florida, for WCW Monday Nitro, July 15th, 1996 — just one week after Hulk Hogan shocked the world and formed the nWo at Bash at the Beach. From the MGM Studios entrance gates to the ring chaos, this night had it all: The Steiner Brothers battling Fire & Ice, Harlem Heat defending the gold, Medusa keeping the women’s division alive, and technical clinics from Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero, and Chris Benoit. But the story overshadowing it all? The Outsiders lurking, Hogan’s venomous words, and the nWo staking their claim on WCW. And right in the middle of the storm — Big Bubba Rogers steps into the main event against a banged-up Lex Luger. Bubba promises to end Luger once and for all, but when the New World Order crashes the party, even Bubba finds out no one is safe. If you love Monday Night Wars nostalgia, legendary promos, and stories that connect the action inside the ring to the legacies outside of it, this is an episode you won’t want to miss. 🔗 Subscribe to The Bubba Cast wherever you listen, and join us as we relive the chaos, the drama, and the night WCW changed forever.
