During an episode of WCW Monday Night Nitro in 1997, the infamous Dennis Rodman Hulk Hogan Voodoo Child entrance happened, shocking pro wrestling and basketball fans. Jimi Hendrix's hit song Voodoo Child became a theme song during many Hollywood Hulk Hogan nWo entrances afterwards and an iconic moment in professional wrestling, with many fans regarding it as one of the greatest wrestling entrances of all time.
Eric Bischoff shares during an interview with Andrew Pope on the Pickin' It Out Podcast that he originally licensed the song through Jimi's sister for $100,000 per year and was allowed to use it for 3 minutes per show with worldwide rights. The Hollywood Hogan nWo theme Voodoo Child entrances would end up being one of the most memorable in pro wrestling history.
