Summary
OHHHHHH YEAAAAAAH! Eric believes Hogan and Savage were almost interchageable as THE top star in the business. So it's no wonder he wanted the "Macho Man" in WCW. Find out when he was "sold" on Savage once he was in power, who introduced the two, the details of how his deal was put together, where Slim Jim fit in, what concerns existed based on the Hogan-Savage relationship, why he was debuted the way he was, comparing the Hogan debut to his, how he got along with Sting, why he worked the early opponents he did, when Eric heard "the rumor" about Savage, what Savage told Eric, the four star match with Flair on PPV, the craziest thing you've ever heard about Steve Austin in WCW, why Savage never pinned Hogan clean, how Savage was at home, when and how Lanny was signed, why Angelo was booked in '95, who put Flair in drag, his relationship with Liz, and of course the very interesting finish to World World War 3 in '95 when Savage won the title for the first time. SNAP INTO IT!
