I have watched the video about the death of WCW. The Big Show was on there talking about all the big contracts they had with people...and him being the world champion and making $125,000/year.

Since Zaga Fan happened to mention creative control, here is one of the most famous "creative control" incidents from WCW... ***WARNING: STRONG LANGUAGE!***




Just watched this and remember it fondly...

Was it ever released if this was a work or Hogan was surprised with this?
I know he filed a lawsuit over it afterwards for defamation of character but Russo always said it was a work.

I don't remember what happened exactly, but if I remember correctly they had a fight about the outcome of the match and Hogan had some kind of clause in his contract that allowed him to override Russo.

Also, didn't Hogan win the title like this another time...
in his "feud" with Nash.
I could be wrong...
it's been a while lol
