Watching their match for the WCW World Title on Nitro in '99, Hogan went over and won the title. It made me think, was there ever a point where these guys faced each other and Savage got the win? Because i'm seriously drawing a blank. I don't think Savage ever got a win over Hogan in WWF or WCW.

By pin, no.
He got a few countout wins over Hogan in the 80s when he was IC Champ.
Savage even managed a pin on Warrior at a house show iirc during their long run.

World War 3 in 1995, though that was a 60-man battle royal.
One of the best WTF moments in WCW history happened the next night on Nitro after Hogan tried showing video with him getting thrown out by the Giant after Giant had already been eliminated, but somehow the tape had either gone missing or been erased.
They were still shilling the replay on PPV, even though in kayfabe they didn't have all of the footage of the ending to the match.

It’s possible. There’s a WCW house show that took place in Gary, Indiana back in April 1998 where Savage with Teddy Long is his corner beat Hogan with Baron Von Raschke in his corner. It’s not listed as a pin in the results but there was a DQ earlier in the night between High Voltage and Public Enemy, so if the Savage win was by DQ I believe it would have been listed that it was. It could be Savage’s only pinfall victory over Hogan.

Off-topic: Hogan worked Gary, IN of all places in 1998? |

I can kind of understand Long as he was a face manager at the time, but the Baron makes no sense at all. |

Allegedly Hogan was supposed to have been eliminated over the top rope in World War 3, but during the day he used the "that doesn't work for me brother" creative control clause and the finish changed so Hogan had an out and never really lost. Petty stuff like that is why Macho hated the orange goblin for years. |

I was gonna say something about the alleged Gary house show, but it looks like it was debunked already. WCW did good business in Hammond; why run a show one city over?
Now ECW ran Gary's Genesis Center once, which is even stranger. (Of course ECW would do that; wait until I no longer lived around there to run a show.)
At the Raw live event on my son's 8th birthday in Hammond, Tommy Dreamer (facing Jack Swagger for the WWEECW title that night) did a big pre-match spiel about how when he was in ECW they sold this place out.
He stopped for a few cheers, but not many. When it got quiet, I yelled down to him "THAT WAS IN GARY, YOU ASSHOLE!"
