5 great heel turns we still talk about today

#3 The New World Order is born

Hulk Hogan reveals himself as the third man.

It was the moment that shook the fabrications of wrestling forever.

It was 1996 and the Monday Night Wars were well underway. In the weeks leading up to WCW's Bash at the Beach, Scott Hall and Kevin Nash, known previously as Razor Ramon and Diesel in WWE, began appearing on WCW TV.

Portraying themselves as outsiders coming in to take down the company, they promised they'd soon be joined by a third member at the PPV.

But as the pair traded off with WCW's team of Lex Luger, Randy Savage and Sting, there was no third man to be seen.

That was until Hulk Hogan made his way to the ring, presumably to help Savage and co. Instead, he would drop a leg on the Macho Man, revealing himself as the third man.

With that, the nWo was formed, and the industry would never be the same again.

It is a heel turn we still talk about to this day, for the gigantic impact it had on the sport.

Without the nWo, WCW would not have had the new found edge they exhibited following the show. Without that, they'd have never dominated the early Monday Night Wars, and WWE would have never countered with the Attitude Era that would eventually help lead to the demise of WCW.

So if the nWo never formed, we may not have a WWE right now. Try picturing that.
