Hog/Road Wild

By Scott Keith on 27 August 2012

Scott,
Any reason WCW changed the PPV name from Hog Wild to Road Wild? Road Wild has always sounded so stupid.

Yeah, WCW's legal department thought there could be trademark issues with the "Hog" portion due to Harley Davidson's claim on the term, so they changed it for the 97 show. I guess that they thought people might be confused into thinking Harley was sponsoring the show or something?
