There's a very small possibility that they really did not know what the Final Solution was and that it wasn't a reference to Hitler's terrible plan.

I do not however extend that same possibility to when Vince Russo wanted to give Hardcore Holly a finisher name and came up with "Hollycaust" for it.

You have to understand that Holocaust education was abysmal until the 1970s when the majority of WCW's management was already educated, except most of them had a 5th grade education.

I had never heard about the Final Solution until I read about it on wrestlecrap.com, but also I was 13

I mostly just think it doesn't make enough sense as a character name without being a reference for it to be more likely that it was just a coincidence. I don't think there was any malicious intent to it or anything, I think someone just thought referencing a really bad thing made sense for a bad guy.

In mild defense of Hogan that had been a large part of his career until then.
