Sept. 22, 1997
The Streak
In his WCW debut, an unknown, but physically intimidating former football player named Bill Goldberg runs through Hugh Morrus in impressive fashion. The victory turns out to be the start of a 173-0 undefeated streak that last for more than a year.
Nov. 17, 1997
Slick Rick
On a night where Raw airs taped while Nitro broadcasts live, the legendary Rick Rude creates a bit of sports-entertainment history by appearing on both programs in the same evening. First running down WWE and Shawn Michaels on the live Nitro, the former Intercontinental Champion pops up on Raw an hour later alongside his DX cohorts. Amazingly, Rude also appears on ECW’s television show that week.
Dec. 28, 1997
Sting vs. Hogan
After more than a year of anticipation, Sting finally returns to the ring to beat Hulk Hogan for the WCW Title. (WATCH) The heavily hyped bout propels Starrcade ’97 to become WCW’s most successful pay-per-view, but the main event’s muddy ending leaves fans feeling disappointed — even with one of the first WCW appearances of Bret “Hit Man” Hart.
