The 1998 Bash at the Beach was the fifth Bash at the Beach professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Championship Wrestling (WCW). It took place on July 12, 1998, from Cox Arena in San Diego, California. As of 2014, the event is available on the WWE Network.[2] The main event of the evening was the tag team match between Hollywood Hulk Hogan & Chicago Bulls star Dennis Rodman taking on Diamond Dallas Page & Utah Jazz star Karl Malone, less than a month after Rodman and Malone clashed in the 1998 NBA Finals. As a result of the participation of the two NBA stars, this event received significant mainstream attention, being covered by non-wrestling news organizations such as USA Today and CNN.
