10 Best Decisions That WCW Ever Made

1. Turning Hulk Hogan Heel

WWE

Really, what else could it be? In retrospect turning Hulk Hogan heel at Bash at the Beach '96 was the perfect move at the perfect time. It's easy to forget, though, that it was also just about the riskiest thing WCW could have done.

Turning the icon of their business and the industry into a bad guy at a time when bad guys weren't considered to draw much money could have backfired on the company. Instead, they got the nWo, years of television ratings dominance, millions of dollars and arguably the most iconic moment in wrestling history. Whatever else WCW may have done or gone on to do, it's impossible to deny that in this one glorious moment they made one of the absolute best decisions that any professional wrestling company ever has.
