Road Wild (originally known as Hog Wild) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by World Championship Wrestling that was held from 1996 to 1999 on a Saturday. It was a free event held in Sturgis, South Dakota during the annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. After the first event, WCW changed the name to Road Wild because of a potential trademark issue with the Harley-Davidson club Harley Owners Group (HOG).
