10 Wrestlers You Never Realised Were Signed To WCW
4. Zeus
Of the ten wrestlers featured here, Zeus is one of the most oddball signings that World Championship Wrestling made. After all, this would prove to be a super brief WCW stint for the real-life Tiny Lister.
Having gone up against Hulk Hogan in 1989’s No Holds Barred, Zeus would turn up on WWF programming to battle The Hulkster at that year’s SummerSlam, Survivor Series, and a special No Holds Barred PPV. Skip ahead to 1996, and The Human Wrecking Machine would resurface to butt heads with Hogan over in World Championship Wrestling.
Going by the name Z-Gangsta, the intense actor-turned-wrestler would be a part of The Alliance to End Hulkamania as Hogan was running out of larger-than-life monsters to compete against. Fortunately for viewers, this all thankfully came to a swift end as the Z-Gangsta character was pretty much done after just two weeks.
Before you could say "Rip 'em!", Zeus had departed WCW just as randomly as he'd entered it.
