Aside from Hulk Hogan losing to Lex Luger, his decimation via Goldberg's Spear and Jackhammer at the Georgia Dome on July 6, 1998 is easily one of the more awesome moments in WCW history. Insofar as a match though, it's the fact that you're watching a crowd that really doesn't care about heat, a comeback or anything besides Charles Robinson counting to three that makes this an amazing watch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WD4L_T33zWE When people watch history occur right in front of their faces, they're usually sitting there waiting for the "camera" moment, and sometimes that ruins everything else. But not this. Hogan's the pro here and literally makes the people wait, then gives them EXACTLY what they want. It demands to be said again: sometimes Hulk Hogan is the best.
