OK, first of all - apologies, because yes, this is another wrestling video. But don't run away just yet, because mark this in your diaries - this is the worst thing you'll ever witness. The worst acting, the worst script.. everything about it is Grade A TERRIBLE. And its from WCW, a company that went bust - who'd have thunk it?
History lesson first of all - Hulk Hogan had just left WWF for WCW, and so they needed something big and important for him to do. So a big bad guy? That's not enough. We need LOTS of big bad guys, and so one of the most infamous and poorly conceived storylines ever was born - the Dungeon of Doom.
Now, coming up is a series of videos and even if you have zero interest in wrestling, these are HYSTERICAL. They make the Power Rangers look like the Godfather. Now, keep in mind that in WWF you had Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Owen Hart, Undertaker, British Bulldog, Sid Justice, Yokozuna, Razor Ramon.. and this was the competition. Prepare yourselves.
First off, here's Kevin Sullivan and his marshmallow dad, who basically looks like he sits on the toilet the entire time. Meng gets introduced, looking like a cross between the Predator and a duck.

And now the debut of Kamala..

Now come the big guns. And when I mean big guns, I mean Earthquake and Brutus the Barber Beefcake. Scared yet?
Here's the Shark!

And you won't fucking BELIEVE the Zodiac...

And, OK, you're all dying to know who the last great warrior is, right? Well, it's now WWE guy The Big Show, but WCW were billing him as the SON of Andre the Giant. Watch Hogan's horror when he realises he's never been somewhere before (how did he get there in the first place?) and that water can be, you know, cold.

And lastly, here's a video after all this went on for about 20 years and 20 more villains, when Hogan was sent to the Dark Side (i.e - they shaved his mustache, the bastaaaards!). So he gets help from Randy Savage. Why they've got, um, swords, I'm not so sure.

I put it to you, treasured Dwellers of the Fortress - this is the worst television in the history of the world.
