3 Faces of Fear

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 3 Faces of Fear was a professional wrestling stable in World Championship Wrestling.

[edit] History

The Faces of Fear were formed when Kevin Sullivan recruited The Butcher and Avalanche to feud with Hulk Hogan. Sullivan had had enough of his brother Dave being a "Hulkamaniac" and wanted to destroy him. The Butcher was Hogan's real-life best friend Ed Leslie who had recently turned on him.

Hogan recruited Sting and "Macho Man" Randy Savage to aid him against them. They feuded from November 1994 until February 1995 when the Faces of Fear broke up. The Butcher tired of feuding with his best friend and left the group causing Sullivan to go after him instead. Avalanche continued to feud with Sting apart from the Sullivan-Butcher feud. The Sullivan-Butcher feud ended at Slamboree on May 21, 1995, when Sullivan pinned Butcher in a match.

Sullivan quit the feud after this match and started forming his Dungeon of Doom stable that ironically included both Tenta and Beefcake as Shark and Zodiac respectively.
