Dennis Rodman Missed Practice During 1998 NBA Finals To Wrestle With Hulk Hogan

During the 1998 NBA Finals between Chicago Bulls and Utah Jazz, Dennis Rodman missed practice the day after Game 3 in order to fly to Michigan for a taping of WCW Nitro with Hulk Hogan. At the time, Rodman was involved in a kayfabe rivalry with NBA legend Karl Malone who was also made regular appearances in WCW during the segment. The Mailman and Rodman clashed in the 1998 Finals and a month later faced each other in a tag-team match at WCW’s Bash at the Beach pay-per-view in July 1998.

Revolving around Rodman’s antics as he juggled his NBA duties alongside his commitments to WCW, Rodman explained his actions in the final episode of the series. “I wasn’t trying to do anything,” Rodman explained his WCW appearance during the 1998 Finals. “I was just trying to play basketball, party, da, da, da, da. F*** all the girls. Just be me. Dennis s**t, you know.”

Rodman’s ex-girlfriend also appeared in the last episode where she explained, the Bulls star “took a detour” to cut a promo on Karl Malone. Rodman even beat up Diamond Dallas Page (DDP) with a steel chair. Rodman snuck out from a practice session before Game 4 through the back door to avoid his media duties. “I think Phil (Jackson) realised that I needed to always do me, just go do what I do. They’re gonna get 100% when I’m on the court,” Rodman added.

 

Dennis Rodman skipped a media session the day before Game 4 of the 98 NBA Finals and was fined $20,000.

He instead was paid $250,000, plus use of a private jet, to appear at a WCW show.

When he returned, his teammate Ron Harper said "I think that makes him a good businessman." pic.twitter.com/fK1hxZaQcH
