* EleventhHourRanger: As part of [[VillainTeamUp The Alliance to End Hulkamania]], this is what Z-Dogg and The Ultimate Solution were supposed to be. Thing is, despite being huge, they were ''actors'', not wrestlers - Z-Dogg was [[Creator/TinyLister Tommy "Tiny" Lister]], best known as "Zeus" in Hogan's 1989 movie ''Film/NoHoldsBarred'', and Ultimate Solution was [[Creator/RobertSwenson Robert "Jeep" Swenson]] (Bane in the 1997 movie ''Film/BatmanAndRobin''). But despite their being actors, Hogan was willing to sell for them and act like they were a serious, dangerous threat when he wasn't willing to sell for the actual wrestlers in the match.

The Dungeon of Doom was a ProfessionalWrestling PowerStable that existed in Wrestling/{{WCW}} from May 1995 to July 13, 1997. It developed out of the short-lived PowerTrio the Three Faces of Fear (Wrestling/KevinSullivan, [[Wrestling/BrutusBeefcake the Butcher]] and [[Wrestling/JohnTenta Avalanche]] which existed from late October 1994 until April 1995. At ''WCW Slamboree 95'', May 21, 1995, Sullivan d. The Man With No Name (Butcher). After the match, The Master (Curtis Iaukea - no relation to Mike "Prince Iaukea" Haynor) appeared on the video screen ranting about [[Wrestling/HulkHogan Hulkamania]] and how it needed to be stopped. Sullivan ran through the crowd and out of the arena. This led to a vignette showing Sullivan running through a forest with the Master calling for him. Then Sullivan disappeared and reappeared at the Master's feet inside the Dungeon, with the Master talking about how the "warriors were gathering." Sullivan said that he didn't want to disappoint the Master, but "no one can defeat the Immortal Hulk Hogan, no one." The Master told Sullivan, whom he called his "SONNNNNNNNNN," to take "the final step," leading to Sullivan running toward another area of the Dungeon. He reemerged in a red robe as "The Taskmaster," calling the Master "Father" and saying that he knew what his "Father" meant when he said that it was etched in STOOOONNNE!!!!! Over the next few weeks on WCW TV, the Master would present different warriors to be used to destroy Hogan, starting with Wrestling/{{Kamala}} (his WCW debut), the Shark (Tenta), the Zodiac (Beefcake), Wrestling/{{Meng}} and, most importantly, the centerpiece, [[Wrestling/BigShow The Giant]].

*DragonInChief: Kevin Sullivan may have been the leader of the Dungeon, but he was never among the more formiddable members. Meng was generally Sullivan's Dragon and could have easily been a Dragon in Chief if he'd wanted to, but despite being an uncontrollable monster, Meng wasn't an ''ambitious'' uncontrollable monster. The Giant, however, was a Dragon in Chief, and when Sullivan failed to treat The Giant with as much respect as The Giant wanted, he ditched the Dungeon for the [=nWo=].
