#4 Bobby blows the surprise?
WCW in July 1996 was the most exciting place to be in pro-wrestling, with the Outsiders debuting and challenging Sting, Randy Savage and Lex Luger at Bash at the Beach.
Bobby Heenan was on commentary for the legendary match and when Hulk Hogan began to make his way down, he actually dared to suggest he was the infamous 3rd man by asking whose side he was on.
Many called this a botch on Bobby's part, but it actually made total sense for Bobby to "know what was coming" as he had managed Andre The Giant through his shocking turn. What seemed a mistake actually gave depth to Hogan's betrayal. That only the despicable Brain saw it coming.
That Bobby was playing a somewhat reformed character by that time only made it sweeter as Bobby played that he'd "been proven right all those years" about Hogan's true nature.
The NWO, of course, would rule WCW and the business for the next 4 years... but had Heenan kept quiet, would the turn have worked so well?
