ARN #272: "Shifting the Gold: April 1996"

About this episode

April 1996 was a turning point in WCW — and Arn Anderson was right in the thick of it. Hulk Hogan was still WCW’s superhero, Ric Flair dropped the World Title to The Giant, and the storm clouds of the nWo were beginning to form. On this episode of ARN, The Enforcer reflects on one of wrestling’s most pivotal months.

We cover:

  • Arn teaming with Kevin Sullivan against Hulk Hogan & The Booty Man on Nitro
  • How Arn approached working with Hogan while fans were starting to turn on him
  • The Horsemen’s place in WCW’s shifting main event picture
  • Ric Flair’s shocking loss of the gold to The Giant
  • The earliest seeds of the nWo storyline

Arn tells the story with his trademark honesty, grit, and behind-the-scenes perspective — plus answers fan questions from our live audience.
