Summary
On this episode of 83 Weeks, Eric and Conrad rewind 30 years to revisit the very first time Sting went one-on-one with Hulk Hogan on WCW Monday Nitro! Was this match a glimpse into the future of the company? And did Hogan's all-black gear hint that he was already testing the waters of a heel turn? Eric breaks down the atmosphere, the intrigue, and the bizarre context of this moment in WCW history — long before the nWo was even an idea.
If that's not enough, Eric gives his LIVE reaction to Tony Khan's interview on The Ariel Helwani Show. What did Eric think about Tony's comments on him, his influence, and his impact on Tony's own thought process and career?
All that, plus so much more, on this jam-packed edition of 83 Weeks with Eric Bischoff!
