Who was the guy that said Hogan was the 3rd Man before he got to the ring?

I didn't dream that right? Someone flubbed big time correct?

Heenan always got a "pass" on that because of who he was, but that was one of, if not the, dumbest calls in the history of pro-wrestling.

Had they told him beforehand he wouldn't have said it. WCW mismanagement is at fault not Bobby.

Not to shill, but on the nWo podcast we did last week we had a debate about this line, and I still contend that the only people that think this are people watching the PPV retrospectively and not at the time it happened.

Heenan was questioning EVERYBODY on the Nitros leading up to Bash at the Beach, he was totally paranoid, and even on the Pay-Per-View he accused Dusty Rhodes of being the third man. Plus, Heenan always played that game with Hogan. Like Jesse, he always called him out on the eye rakes and the back scratches. And also - just because Heenan said it, it didn't sway anybody's opinion, because Hogan was such a landmark as a babyface that it was impossible to conceive of him going full-blown heel.

To translate it to the modern day, if they did a similar angle with Cena, Cena walks down the aisle and JBL screamed "Who's side is Cena on!?", every single fan's gut instinct is to say - Fuck off JBL, Cena is never going heel, we know this, it's just not on the cards.

Retrospectively, with the knowledge that Hogan turns, was a mega-heel and led the nWo, that line raises people's ears. In execution at the time, it fit right in.

Oh yeh, and Madden sucks.

How? How was it not natural for Heenan to immediately accuse Hogan of being the bad guy?
