Episode 767: Halloween Havoc 1995 Revisited

Welcome back to The Lawcast! This time our hosts cover the insanity of Halloween Havoc 1995, the night Hulk Hogan threw The Giant off the roof of Cobo Arena and The Yet-AY debuted. We're six weeks into the Nitro era and WCW seems to be picking up steam, but that's all going to come to a halt on this disastrous night. Hulk Hogan faces off with The Giant twice, once in a Monster Truck Challenge and once in the ring for the WCW Title. Lex Luger and Randy Savage both wrestle twice, with Luger facing Meng, Savage facing The Zodiac, and then them facing each other. Sting teams with Ric Flair against Arn Anderson and Brian Pillman in what surely isn't a setup.Plus we discuss WWE Crown Jewel, the new ratings tracking and the huge decline in reported wrestling viewership, and Dwyane Johnson's "The Smashing Machine."
