Marc Raimondi's upcoming book "Say Hello to the Bad Guys" delves into how the New World Order impacted American culture through wrestling. Highlighted is a memorable NBA Finals moment on June 14, 1998, where Dennis Rodman and Karl Malone's on-court rivalry spilled over into the wrestling world. This incident is emblematic of the blending of sports and entertainment, showcasing how athletic competitions have influenced and intermingled with professional wrestling narratives, reshaping public perception of both arenas.
When they finally got up, Malone started running toward the other side of the court and Rodman got in his way. The two collided, sending both down to the hardwood again.
Mark Madden, the wrestling journalist who became a WCW Hotline host, said he got a call from a friend who worked at WCW after the game who told him: 'Look, the boys did it.'
