October 4th WCW Power Hour Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff A fun episode this morning with Schiavone and Bichoff putting over the arrival of Bobby the Brain Heenan coming tonight… plus we’ll see Sting and Nikita taking on the team of the Russian Pitbulls on WCW Worldwide… we’ll see the Pitbulls this morning and the team of Sting and Nikita tonight! Let’s get to the ring for our matches this morning! The Armstrongs get a good six-man win… Brad continues to shine. Kama w/ Harley Race gets a vicious win. Demolition with a tag team win… they vow revenge on the Samoans! Skinner gets a nice singles win. The Russian Pitbulls with Ivan win in dominating fashion… they look strong but will they be strong enough to take on Sting and Nikita tomorrow night on World Wide? WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Sting Nikita Koloff - US Champion Ricky Steamboat Scott Hall - Television Champion Sid Vicious The Great Muta Mr. Perfect Flyin Brian Rick Rude Z-Man We finish up a fun Power Hour with a solid contest featuring Television Champion Scott Hall and Johnny Ace. Hall looks primed for big things and defends the tv title in a nice contest. He even hits the Diamond Death Drop for the 3-count! The shows ends with Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, and Paul E standing in the aisle… Hall looks to be welcoming them to the ring! What’s going to happen tonight! World Championship Wrestling Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone put over a big night of action… we’ve got the World Champion in action… plus we’ll see Sting and Nikita in tag team action… Sid Vicious is here… plus we’re told Ricky Steamboat has business with the Great Muta tonight! Plus… Bobby the Brain Heenan is said to be here tonight! WCW opens with World Champion, Lex Luger, flanked by Kama and Race in action. He takes on Jumping Joey Maggs and handles him with ease. Luger looks to be in the best shape of his life as he prepares for his biggest title defense against Sting at Havoc. We get a promo from him after the fact… he says that he’s been training while Sting has been buddying around with Nikita Koloff. He says he’s focused on the World Title and Sting is focused on his friendship with Nikita Koloff. If sting was half as focused on his friendship with Lex Luger we wouldn’t even be in this spot! Sting… I’m coming for my revenge… from you ruining our friendship and trying to take my livelihood! El Gigante wins a handicap match… Big Josh gets the crowd going wild outside the ring! Ricky Steamboat cuts a big promo where he calls out Muta… he says that they have a state with destiny and he is going to show Muta why he’s the dragon has the passion of 1,000 fires… he then says…“Muta, you tried to take my voice, you tried to take my breath… but you didn’t take my spirit. At Halloween Havoc, you won’t just see the Dragon… you’ll see fire.” Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty win a nice tag team match… both men appear to be healthy and ready for their big match with the Freebirds at Halloween Havoc! We then hear from the Freebirds as they come out to cut a promo… the Rockers challenge them to come to the ring… but then we hear Michael Hayes call out… BADSTREET… now this Badstreet looks like he’s almost 7’ tall! Michael Hayes says Badstreet isn’t a man it is a state of mind… DDP is with him and is sending him into the ring… problem is when DDP gets up on the apron… the Rockers hit a double dropkick and send him flying into Badstreet who catches him and stumbles! The Freebirds are pissed… they are blaming DDP… Demolition with a nice tag team win… we get an inset promo from them as they put over their issue with the Samoans. We find out that they will challenge Owen and Davey for the US Tag titles next week on Main Event. They tell the Samoans that at Halloween Havoc… Crush will be back and it is going to be the brawl to end it all! We get the big angle… a limo arrival… we see the door open… but wait just a moment… it is Paul E… Rick Rude… Curt Hennig… and then BOBBY HEENAN! Heenan is in a nice suit… they are making their way to the ring… We come back from commercials and out comes Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, and Paul E Dangerously… sans Heenan… they start to talk but they’re soon interrupted by Flyin Brian! Flyin Brian…“Paul E, Hennig, Rude — you keep talking about how dangerous you are, but you’re lookin’ at the fight that’s comin’ for you. And at Halloween Havoc, you won’t be able to run!” Hall finally then says: “We don’t need contracts, we don’t need deals. All we need is that bell to ring. Havoc, Chicago — Dangerous Alliance, you’re ours.” Paul E responds, smug and sarcastic “Brian, Hall — you want a fight? Congratulations. At Halloween Havoc, you’re signing your own obituary.” We then come back and Jim Ross welcomes in Bobby the Brain Heenan to the booth… Ross immediately asks him questions about the Dangerous Alliance to which Heenan says he has signed the biggest color commentator contract in the history of sports, entertainment, and television! He says he is making triple what John Madden is making and he’s worth every cent. When it comes to the Dangerous Alliance… Heenan has friends… guys he hopes do well… that’s all… his managing days are done and now he is in the booth… he is going to call it right down the line… like it is supposed to be! Sid Vicious destroys a couple of random dudes… then he starts calling out the Z-Man! He’s screaming for him… then we see Zenk in the crowd! Sid looks like he’s trying to beat up fans to get to him! Zenk is laughing it off… is it smart to get this guy upset? The Samoans win a six-man… no one talks for this group… Afa and Sika do work to get the crowd into it… these guys get a title match next week with Owen and Davey… we’ll see what happens there and if Demolition get involved! Doom with a sold tag team with… Teddy Long is saying that he’s pulling for the Samoans next week… he knows that the match at Halloween Havoc isn’t for gold but for the number one contendership to face the WCW tag champions… he thinks it is going to be the Freebirds… We then get a promo from Owen and Davey… they are 100% and they’re going to show Doom no mercy at Halloween Havoc! Next week… the Samoans are going to get a taste of their greatness! For some reason… the camera pans to a person in the crowd… he is dressed in all black… Ross jokes that he looks like he is in the mood for Halloween Havoc already… Heenan says that he looks familiar… he saw his face on a milk carton… Ross says he looks like he works in a cemetery! Jim Powers with a nice win. He sees that guy in the audience and he is kind of creeped out… this guy then gets up and hands Jim Powers something… it is a card…. It says RIP! Sting and Nikita Koloff defeat the State Patrol… we see Ivan bring out the Russian Pitbulls and we get a brawl… that is until Kama comes out, flanked by Harley Race… Kama looks to attack Sting who is fighting him off while Nikita is trying to fight off the Russians! Officials come out to try and break this up but Sting and Nikita are against the numbers and they will have a big match tomorrow weight on World Wide! WCW World Wide Erich Bischoff & DDP Flyin Brian vs Randy Fox Brian explodes with speed and aerials, dropkicking Fox all over the ring. Finish: Springboard clothesline for the pin. DDP line: “I’ll give Brian credit — the kid flies around like a house on fire… but sooner or later, he’s gonna crash and burn when he’s in there with the Dangerous Alliance!” Brad, Bob, & Scott Armstrong vs Rick Ryder, Larry Santo & Tim Parker Classic Armstrong Family teamwork: Brad shines with crisp offense, Scott takes heat, and Bullet Bob rallies the crowd with fiery punches. Finish: Brad hits the Russian Legsweep on Ryder for the 3-count. DDP line: “Give me a break, Bischoff — one family shouldn’t be allowed to take up three roster spots! Nepotism at its finest.” Big Josh vs Mike Thor Josh chops Thor down, hits his backbreaker, and even teases his log roll. Finish: Running powerslam seals the victory. DDP line: “Big Josh is a lumberjack, huh? Well I got news for ya, Bischoff — he should stick to chopping wood, because sooner or later somebody in WCW is gonna chop him down!” Doom (Ron Simmons & Butch Reed w/ Teddy Long) vs Joey Maggs & Jeff Warner Doom just dismantle the jobbers with power and dominance. Simmons nearly decapitates Warner with a clothesline. Finish: Doom double-shoulderbreaker for the win. DDP line: “Now THIS is a tag team! Simmons, Reed, Teddy Long — that’s what you call a dynasty in the making. Owen and Davey are already on borrowed time, baby!” Main Event: Sting & Nikita Koloff vs The Russian Pitbulls w/ Ivan Koloff Sting and Nikita bring the fight, but the Pitbulls use double-teams to slow things down. Hot tag to Sting blows the roof off — Stinger Splashes for both Pitbulls! Just as it looks like the babyfaces have it, Kama storms in and attacks Sting for the DQ. Post-match: Ivan directs traffic as Kama and the Pitbulls beat down Sting and Nikita. Then the crowd erupts — Ivan brings out a NEW monster… The Barbarian! Barbarian clubs Nikita down and drops him with a huge headbutt. Camera cuts to the aisle where Lex Luger and Harley Race are standing, laughing and clapping at the carnage. DDP line: “Oh baby, now THAT is how you make a debut! The Barbarian, Kama, the Pitbulls — and Luger and Race are lovin’ it! Sting and Nikita don’t stand a chance at Halloween Havoc, Bischoff!”
  2. Man, this was just a really fun show start to finish. Sweet Brown Sugar kicked things off with a nice little win to get the crowd going, and the Wallstreet handicap deal was a cool way to show off the York Foundation stuff. The Road Warriors crashing the Southern Boys vs. Dirty White Boys match was crazy and just makes everyone want that big clash with the Steiners even more. POW teaming with Jarrett felt like his biggest moment yet—he really came alive in that one. Austin vs. Fuller was sharp too, with Austin looking like the man as he outsmarted both Fuller and the Nightstalker. The Southern Tag Title match had classic Memphis shenanigans with Jimmy Hart and then the Rock n Rolls running out to save the day. And then that main event? Lawler and Savage tore it up, Bossman stirred the pot, and it all ended in chaos that sets up a bunch of different stories. Just a super entertaining night that gave the fans plenty to talk about.
  3. This Prime Time was a blast from start to finish. Berzerker came off like a total beast in the opener, and Billy Jack Haynes looked strong with his full nelson finish. The Genius did his usual thing and it was fun, while the Rougeaus showed why they’re champs with a smooth win. The big moment was the “Royal Proclamation” with Jerry Lawler finally showing up—perfect way to kick off his run as the real King. Haku with Sherri looked nasty, and Black Diamond Enterprise with One Man Gang wrecked their opponents in a fun squash. The Terry Funk promo at the ranch was awesome—him with the belt, the whiskey, and that wild stare into the camera really sold the outlaw vibe. Manny Fernandez brought the fight, and Vader in the main event just looked unstoppable. All in all, it was a show that had good squashes, strong promos, and plenty of hype for SNME.
  4. This UWF show rocked from start to finish. Volk Han and Hashimikov kicked it off with a slick vs. power battle, and Han’s crazy submissions got the win. Onita went out swinging, but Ruas chopped him down with brutal low kicks until he couldn’t stand. Fujinami outlasted Tadeu’s flash, while Karelin just crushed Suzuki like a tank with the Karelin Lift. Takada had a tough test with Koslowski but pulled it out with a tight armbar. Sayama looked sharp as ever, beating Vrij with crisp counters and a TKO. Maeda had a war with Dennis Koslowski but finished it with the Capture Suplex. And the main event—Funaki finally beating Fujiwara—was huge, a real passing of the torch moment. Funaki’s celebration with Fujiwara raising his hand was the perfect cap to an awesome night.
  5. Super fun stretch of PCW shows. Mike Awesome looked terrifying, the Sons of the Beach stayed over, and the Thrillseekers going time-limit with the Midnights was a legit statement. The Severn–DiBiase tap was a killer angle, Busick keeps cooking as TV champ, and Bret/Regal both delivered clean, classy wrestling. Loved the PCO “tough love” spark for David Cash, plus Guerrero and Candido grabbing momentum in the LHW lane. Kawada’s meltdown gave the League of Gentlemen real drama, while Harlem Heat’s sneaky win and Gordy gutting out Hashimoto added juice to those feuds. Capped off with Coast 2 Coast pushing the champs and Barr retaining as PCO/Cash hovered—tons of hooks rolling into the next week.
  6. These AWA shows had a ton going on and were super fun. Santana looked smooth, DeBeers got his usual heat, and Leo Burke sneaking a win over JW Storm was classic vet stuff. Jammer/Brandi is heating up, the Guerreros are cocky as ever, and Jumbo wrecking a guy while setting up Hansen felt big. Texas Red accepting that Texas Death match was a huge moment, and Arcidi showing up with the Power Twins was a real shock. Spivey talking tough about Hogan set the hype, and Hogan’s gym promo was vintage Hulkster. Then the Royal Albert Hall card totally delivered—Johnny Smith got the crowd behind him, Bundy crushed, and Slater/Garvin vs. the Bodies was a gritty brawl. The TV title match had a sneaky turn with Gary Young laying out Sammartino, and Cactus vs. Golden was pure chaos. Latin Desire and the Destruction Crew tore it up, and Flair stealing one from Tony St. Clair got real riot heat. The post-match with Missing Link, Sawyer, Johnny Smith, and then Les Thornton giving his nod? Awesome angle. Hot crowd, big matches, and tons of momentum going into Melee at the Mecca.
  7. September 27th WCW Power Hour Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff Tony and Eric bring us in for a fun morning of action… we’ve got some good matches lines up plus a fun six-man for our main event… here we go! Ivan Koloff introduces his Russian Pitbulls to the crowd and lets them loose on a couple of jobbers. The Pitbulls are relentless and secure an easy win. Ivan says he has yet to unleash his greatest threat on Nikita, and when he does, it will be his end! Skinner continues to rebuild his reputation….he handles some dude with a mouth full of chew and the Gator Roll! Kendall Windham with a nice win… nothing flashy. The Z-Man gets a nice win with a top rope dropkick… he then points to his head likes he’s outsmarting someone… Johnny Ace with a win on his own accord… again nothing flashy but these guys are building. The Freebirds get a nice win with Badstreet and DDP at ringside…they have their shot at the Rockers come Halloween Havoc! Scott Hall gets a nice television win… but the moment that gets everyone talking is when Brian Pillman shows up in the aisleway… he offers his hand… Hall just walks off! WCW Top 10 stays unchanged this week WCW Champion - Lex Luger Sting Nikita Koloff - US Champion Scott Hall - TV Champion Ricky Steamboat Flyin Brian Sid Vicious The Great Muta Curt Hennig Rick Rude Z-Man In our main event - we see Brad Armstrong out here with his brother Scott and father Bob… they take on Savio Vega and the Boricuas… it is a fun six-man with everyone getting involved but it is Brad who gets the shine. He and Savio go blow for blow and when Bob and Scott get involved to take out Perez and Estrada… Brad ducks a spinning heel kick and then swoops up Savio and RUSSIAN LEG SWEEP and a roll up for the 3-count! The Armstrongs with a nice win and they make their names known….could be good stuff on the horizon for them. World Championship Wrestling Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone Ross and Tony bring us in for a big night of action… we hear about the big contest with Shawn Michaels taking on Jimmy Garvin! Plus we’re going to see Ivan Koloff and his Russian Pitbulls… Sting will be here… along with Owen Hart in action… fans it is a big night let’s go to the ring! El Gigante and Big Josh are in tag team action to kick us off… they continue to be a good tag team and Tony and JR wonder when they will get their shot at the US or World Tag Titles… Kama comes out with Lex Luger and Harley Race. He gets a clean win and then we hear from Luger and Race who discuss how Sting’s knee is as weak as his heart and he will be nowhere to be found tonight or at Halloween Havoc. The days are numbered for Sting and all the little Stingers out there… his treachery will be taken care of and his friendship will be forgotten! Owen Hart comes out with Davey Boy… he gets a good win… Doom comes out to threaten them but then Davey takes his arm out of the SLING! The crowd pops… the Bulldog is ready for a fight Doom and Teddy Long just smile and back up. Skinner gets an easy win… spits chew all over hell… gross Paul E Dangerously sturts out again, demanding that the Great Muta show himself and take his rightful place in the Dangerous Alliance. Instead, Ricky Steamboat came to the ring and told Paul E that Muta had once been a man of honor and pride, but Paul E’s poison had soured him. Steamboat declared that he wanted Muta at Halloween Havoc. Before he could say more, Rude and Hennig circled him, ready to pounce, when Muta suddenly stormed down to the ring. Steamboat stepped up and told him directly that he was here to challenge him, but Muta fired off a spinning heel kick to the throat that dropped Steamboat hard to the mat. As Steamboat rolled to the floor gasping, Paul E gleefully applauded Muta’s arrival, but Rude and Hennig looked less than thrilled. Then, in a shocking turn, Muta sprayed his mist — straight into Paul E’s face! Rude and Hennig rushed to their manager’s side as Muta slipped out of the ring and disappeared to the back, leaving Paul E overselling in agony, blinded and flustered, while his alliance looked shaken and divided. Ross and Schiavone put this over huge! Kendall Windham with a good win… picking up some steam. JJ Dillon is then shown… he says that he has got some news for the fans of WCW… first off… at Halloween Havoc… the Great Muta will face Ricky Steamboat! The other big news… WCW has just signed a deal… with one of the best color commentators in the entire world of professional wrestling… next he will be here… ladies and gentlemen… coming to WCW… BOBBY THE BRAIN HEENAN! This comes as huge news to the fans and Tony and JR put it over in a big way! Next week Bobby Heenan is going to be here… This leads right into our next segment…. Here comes Sting and he’s got Nikita Koloff next to him. Sting cuts a good promo about accepting Nikita back as his friend and ally… he knows that Nikita was poisioned by a viewpoint or an idea but he knows now where his loyalty lies! Nikita and Sting shake hands… and then put it out there… next week… Ivan… haha… bring the Pitbulls to the ring because we’re going to take care of this problem once and for all! Nikita and Sting make the challenge for next week… will Ivan accept? We then see Flyin Brian with a nice win… he says that he doesn’t need Scott Halls handshake… but he does want him as a partner… to take on Rick Rude and Curt Hennig! The ball is in his court now! Doom comes out for their tag team match and Teddy Long makes it known that he is going to have Doom destroy these Hart boys, take the US titles, and then he’s going to unleash Doom on the WCW tag champions, whoever they may be… and it will be their END! Ivan Koloff comes out with his Pitbulls and says he is happy to accept the challenge for next week… but know this Nikita… I know you’re weakest spots… and your friendship with Sting makes you weaker than ever before… we will triumph over that weakness and destroy you down to your core! Sid Vicious has a quick squash… he keeps asking where the Giant is? Where is the Giant? He says he is the only GIANT in WCW… he’s the MAN… the RULER OF THE WORLD! Sid is walking to the back… but then he comes stumbling back out… wait a second… Z-MAN and he’s got a steel chair! Sid stumbles up and Zenk with a huge shot to the back! Officials and agents come out and Sid shows the first signs of humanity thanks to a couple of vicious chairshots… pun intended! Our Main Event is one that has a lot of juice… the Freebirds and Rockers have been parallel to one another for a while now but they are about to run into one another and this is a good match to get it going. Michael Hayes and DDP are outside the ring… Jannetty, sporting some heavy tape, is on the other side of the ring cheering on his partner. This match goes about 12-minutes… back and forth but it is Michaels who gets shine and Garvin who plays a damn good heel still. Hayes is getting involved every chance he gets… and Jannetty has to play his role to keep him out of the contest. DDP now gets involved and this brings the crowd to their feet with Jannetty going over and popping him in the head! Hayes gets up on the apron and by golly Shawn Michaels comes with a superkick and sends him flying! Garvin comes for a DDT but Michaels counters through and then comes back with another SUPERKICK and Garvin goes down… HARD! 1…2….3! Shawn is the winner… wait a second… Badstreet… now appearing to be over 6’3” tall… he grabs Jannetty and throws him right into the ringpost! Michaels jumps out there and he’s pissed. He almost seems to not care that Marty got injured… or upset he isn’t getting the hype for the win… regardless… next week… it’s going to be a huge WCW as we kick off October and head to HALLOWEEN HAVOC! WCW WorldWide Eric Bichoff and Diamond Dallas Page Tonga Kid vs “Iron” Mike Jeffers Tonga ragdolls the jobber with chops and headbutts, finishing with the Samoan Drop. DDP line: “That’s how the island boys fight, Bischoff — smash and leave ‘em layin’!” El Gigante & Big Josh vs Larry Santo & Randy Fox Josh handles most of the work, Gigante tags in for the big man spectacle. Finish: Gigante’s big boot + Josh’s log roll combo seals the win. DDP line: “I don’t care who you are, you can’t prepare for seven-foot-seven of trouble!” Flyin Brian vs Rick Ryder Brian explodes out of the gate with dropkicks and aerial offense. Finish: Springboard clothesline for the decisive victory. DDP line: “Brian’s got fire, I’ll give him that — but when he steps in the ring with Hennig or Rude, that fire’s getting snuffed out quick!” The Samoans (Samu & Fatu w/ Afa & Sika) vs Tim Parker & Jeff Warner The Samoans annihilate the jobbers with headbutts, slams, and double-teams. Finish: Double superkick → Fatu scores the pin. DDP line: “That’s what domination looks like, Bischoff — the Samoan dynasty runs this tag team scene!” Ricky Steamboat vs Nightmare Jones Nightmare controls early, but Steamboat’s heart fires him back into it. Finish: Flying crossbody gives Steamboat the win. DDP line: “Steamboat can flap his wings all he wants, but is going to clip ‘em for good!” Doom w/ Teddy Long defeated the Nasty Boys in a No DQ tag match Hard fought battle all over ringside... Nasty Boys made their final stand but Doom was too much! Finish: Ron Simmons hits Knobbs with a spinebuster but hammers him between two sitting chairs. DDP line: "Brother I don't think anyone wants to step in Doom's way... there's no way the Nasties are coming back from that beating!"
  8. Funk as WWF champion is going to be a wild ride - I also love Sherri's group she's putting together... happy to have you back buddy!

  10. September 13th WCW Power Hour Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff On Power Hour this week - Eric and Tony put over the big happenings from the Clash and also the big moment from last week with Hennig, Rude, and Dangerously. We get a brief moment where Ivan Koloff says he has a big surprise for Nikita next week! Tony and Eric put it over as we’ve got a fun show coming up! We get a couple of good squash matches and showcases… first we see Bullet Bob and Shotter Steve win a tag team match, the Nasty Boys regain some steam, Tatanka with a nice win, plus we see Savio and the Boricuas in six-man, then a nice squash with Sid killing two dudes and stacking them on top of one another. WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Sting Nikita Koloff - US Champion Scott Hall - TV Champion Ricky Steamboat Flyin Brian Sid Vicious The Great Muta Curt Hennig Z-Man Rick Rude We get a fun main event with Demolition in tag team action against the State Patrol. Ax and Smash get a good win but the story is the angle that happens afterwords….We see a couple of officials come out and Demolition run to the back… when they get back there… we see Crush laying on the ground while Afa and Sika are leading the Samoans in a beatdown with Tonga, Samu, and Fatu! Demo get back there to try and stop things as we’ve got a brawl to end the show as Tony and Eric put it over and hype for WCW tonight! World Championship Wrestling Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone Ross and Tony put over the big issues this morning with the Samoans and Demolition… we find out that Crush was taken to a local medical facility and no word on his status yet. We’ve got Doom and the Nasty Boys in tag team action tonight… plus Sting will be here in the ring! Kama w/ Harley Race and Lex Luger gets a nice win. Harley and Luger are at his table eating shrimp and drinking champagne. Kama kills his dude in minutes and then comes over and gets a shrimp from Luger. Eric comes out there and and Luger goes on a tirade how this is a life of luxury that Sting will never be able to afford. As a champion, Lex Luger donates to charities not only his money but his time all the while Sting is out there posing with fans and ignoring the calls of all the young fans and especially his friends. Lex, I have left the messages, I have sent the postcards, hell I even sent you a fax Sting… but no response from you huh… I guess i am just chopped liver to you… well Halloween Havoc is a month away but the friendship we’e had for 10 years is dead in the water like these shrimp! I am sick and tired of the betrayal and I am going to put an end to you like you put an end to our friendship! The Rockers are back in tag team action… well kind of… Marty doesn’t get in much because Shawn doesn’t tag him… he knows he’s hurt but we see Michaels handle the load and get the win. We then see the Freebirds come out with DDP… the Rockers are in the ring while the Freebirds are jiving at ringside… until out of the crowd… that’s Badstreet… wait… is it? This guy is a little shorter than Badstreet was a week ago… either way… he attacks Michaels and Jannety leading to the Birds and DDP running into the ring and it being a 4 on 2! Officials run out to break this one up… Owen and Davey Boy come out and they cut a promo about being the US tag team champions but having some serious issues with the tag team of Doom. They talk about Reed and Simmons as nothing but backstabbers who can only jump you from behind… well Owen and Davey want a fight come Hell or Highwater… The Samoans are now in six-man with Afa and Sika… they dominate their match but soon we’ve got Demolition coming out to challenge them to a fight next week… Crush is going to be back and they are going to Demolish the Samoans! We get a quick taped promo from Ricky Steamboat who says he is on the hunt for Muta… when he sees him again it will be a battle that neither man will be able to walk away from! Big Josh with a nice win and he’s got his big buddy… El Gigante by his side. Sid Vicious is seen cutting promo in the back… his head is soaked in sweat or something and he goes on a weird little tirade to talk about being the one true giant… the one true contender for the WCW championship. If it isn’t Luger he gets then he will focus on Sting… if he can’t get Sting then he’ll beat whomever is next in line… there is no more waiting… it is time for Sid to take over… because Sid Vicious RULES THE WORLD! We cut back to the ring for a nice win by Skinner - he is a nasty fellow and he’s got that chewing tobacco all over the place. Flyin Brian gets a nice win… but then we see Paul E come out… he’s got Hennig and Rude with him… he says the people may want to see Hennig and Rude in the ring but they have to pay extra for that kind of entertainment… he has big news… first… Cryin Brian… you are going to get a lesson is hard knocks courtesy of these two… wait a moment… wait just a moment… Scott Hall walks out and he gets right in Paul E’s face… Hall goes full on machismo… he tells Paul E that the dangerous alliance ain’t shit… Woah! Paul E whispers to Rude who gets right in Hall’s face… Paul E backs his guys up before saying that this little show of unity is nothing… next week… the newest member of the Dangerous Alliance will be revealed! Sting with a big win over Savio Vega… the Boricuas try to get involved but the Stinger is on fire! He handles each man with ease before setting up Savio for the big Stinger Splash and then the Scorpion Deathlock for the submission! Sting comes over to Rossy and he is on fire right now. He is talking about Lex Luger… he says that Halloween Havoc can’t come soon enough… but then… wait a second… Nikita Koloff comes out… he holds his hand out and Sting shakes it. They agree that their fight is over with one another and they are looking forward to fighting together in the future! Sting tells Nikita to watch his back with whatever Ivan’s got planned for him… Sting says he will be there if he needs backup! Our Main Event is a great showdown with the Nasty Boys and Doom… somehow I don’t know if the Nasty Boys got the memo they weren’t the top dawgs here because they bring a fight to Doom unlike any they’ve had before. Simmons and Reed have to take a step back to get themselves under control but shit - here comes the Nasty Boys outside the ring. This one is taking the fight all around the arena… wait just a minute… Reed is backed up… but here comes Owen Hart and Davey Boy! Davey’s arm is in a tight sling up against his body but he is throwing with his other arm! The referee has called for the bell and awarded the match to Doom. The Nasty Boys look over at Owen and Davey… they seem to have a mutual respect… for a moment and then the Nasty Boys attack Owen and Davey! All hell has broken loose here and the fans are unsure what to think Tony and Ross put this through the roof… tune in to World Wide tomorrow night… more to come then! WCW World Wide (Sept 15, 1990) Announcers: Eric Bischoff & Diamond Dallas Page Tatanka vs Sgt. Buddy Lee Parker Tatanka wins with the top-rope tomahawk chop. DDP line: “Kid’s got fire, Bischoff — but he ain’t Doom, and he sure ain’t the Dangerous Alliance!” Nasty Boys vs Jose Estrada Jr. & Miguel Perez Nasties win after the double-team powerslam.

DDP line: “Looks impressive, but let’s see him try that on Rick Rude or Curt Hennig, bro!” Freebirds (w/ Badstreet & DDP) vs Joey Maggs & Jumping Jim Powers Hayes pins Powers after the DDT. DDP line: “That’s how it’s done, Bischoff — Badstreet on the outside, Birds in the ring, and gold in our future!” Main Event: Ricky Steamboat vs Ninja Warrior #2 Steamboat wins clean with the flying crossbody. DDP line: “Big win, sure — but I saw Muta spit that mist, and next time the Dragon won’t be so lucky!”

Big Josh and El Gigante get a nice win to kick us off on our big night of action. They look good as a team and really seem to gel… that is Big Josh does the work and El Gigante gets some show. Diamond Studd cuts a promo with Eric Bichoff where he puts over his tv title reign… and we get some fun glimpses because he is the one that puts out the challenge to Hennig, Rude, and Paul E. He says that he is the most dangerous man in WCW and he will prove it to all three of them! Sid Vicious is in a 3 on 1 handicap match this week and he powerbombs one on top of another on top of the other for the finish. He then cuts a quick promo saying that he is the real number one contender… he rules the world… he will be the HAVOC on Halloween for Sting and anyone else in his path! Ivan Koloff is out here and he calls out Nikita… he says that Nikita disrespected him the other night and he wants answers…. Nikita comes out and says simply… he is his own man now and he fights for himself! He holds the US title as a champion and he’s going to defend it the right way… NO MATTER WHAT! Ivan backs off and says this isn’t over yet! Bullet Bob and The Shooter Scott Armstrong have another showcase and they’re building up some good momentum here this fall. We get a promo from Ricky Steamboat who says that he had some damage from the mist the other night from Muta. He says that he has had some temporary blindness… but in reality he can see… he can see what Muta really stands for. He knows their match at the Bash was for honor but this time… he wants a match for REVENGE! Flyin Brian is in singles action… he has got piss and vinegar in his veins right now and he jumps right up to the microphone to let Rick Rude and Curt Hennig know he wants them… anytime… anywhere… he is fired up… Sting joins his buddy Flyin Brian out here and the crowd is going wild! We now know that Sting will get his shot at the WCW Championship, on October the 27th, live from Chicago when WCW Presents: Halloween Havoc! Sting says he has got to wait some time for this but he knows it will be worth it in the long run because of all the little Stingers out there. He is going to train for this match like never before and take on anyone in his path! The Freebirds win a tag team match and they’ve got DDP and Badstreet in their corner. This big dude looks a little rough around the edges… The Freebirds win the match and then lay into Flyin Brian and call him Cryin Brian! The Freebirds say they are the number one contenders for the tag team titles and good gawd, they are getting their shot come hell or high water! Doom and Teddy Long put over how they are the rightful number one contenders and they need to be getting the shot come Halloween Havoc. We find out that they will be facing the Nasty Boys next week and there will be title implications on the line! Tatanka comes out and looks good in singles competition… he has a lot of momentum right now… we’ll see where he can find himself in the near future. Lex Luger is out here with Harley Race and Kama. He notes that his match with Steamboat may have some controversy but the result is the same no matter what… Lex Luger is the champion. Sting… well Sting climbed the ranks… in an auspicious way… a way without honor or respect… unlike the way Lex Luger did to not only become the number one contender but the true, undisputed… WCW World Champion. Sting… you now have your shot… but more importantly, you’ve got time… you’ve got time to think Sting… is this worth it? Is it worth you sacrificing yourself… your career…. Your knee… the hopes and dreams of all the little Stingers… and most importantly… our friendship? Why would you try to ruin this bond that you and I have had for YEARS… and TRY TO TAKE THE WORLD TITLE FROM ME! Sting you’re jealous… you always have been… you always will be. I am the Total Package. The Undsiputed Champion… you are nothing but a challenger… I thought you were my friend but you have stabbed me in the back too many times… this time is stuck and now it is time I make you fill the STING of betrayal! Crush vs Tonga is our main event… we of course got the Samoans and Demolition at ringside. This one is hard hitting - both men don’t give two shits…The Samoans are sans Gary Hart who we hear pre-tell has been removed as their manager… this opens up the door for our big moment to finish things off when Demolition are drawn to the back by Samu and Fatu only to be ambushed by AFA AND SIKA! No they aren’t wrestling but they have these heavy samoan canes that they hammer them with. Crush looks out there and sees what’s going on… that opens the door for Tonga to LOW BLOW Crush and he goes down… his head is between the ropes and here comes Afa with the cane… he cracks his face with the cane and the fans gasp! Crush goes down… Tonga covers and the Samoans get the win. Samu, Fatu, Tonga, Afa, and Sika line up in the ring and point to the sky. (Camera cuts to the ramp…. Paul E is strutting in his suit, phone in hand. Rude and Hennig flank him, arms crossed, smug as hell. Crowd boos immediately. Paul E smirks and waves them on.) Paul E: “Ladies and gentlemen… your worst nightmare has arrived. You thought you were safe. You thought that corporate America wouldn’t let a guy like me back in the door. Well, let me tell you something about billion-dollar companies like Turner Broadcasting… everybody’s got a price, and I paid it! I greased the palms of the suits in Atlanta, lined the pockets of the people who matter, and now Paul E Dangerously is BACK in WCW — not to compete… but to DESTROY!” (He paces, points to the camera.) Paul E: “You see, this company… this so-called World Championship Wrestling… has been run by the same bunch of so-called heroes for years. Sting, Steamboat, Luger, Nikita… dinosaurs! And the fans eat it up because they don’t know any better. But here’s the truth: I didn’t come back to join this company. I came back to bankrupt this damn company! To bleed it dry, to tear it apart piece by piece, and to rebuild it in my image… an image of power, of dominance, of RAVISHING greatness, of PERFECTION.” (He gestures to Rude and Hennig.) Paul E: “Let me introduce you to my Dangerous Alliance. First, the man every woman wants and every man wishes he could be… the Ravishing One… Rick Rude. And the man who will out-wrestle, out-class, and outshine every so-called technician in WCW history… Curt Hennig! Together, we’re not just a faction… we are an army. An unstoppable, ruthless machine that will chew up and spit out every single pretender in this company!” (Rude steps up, oozing arrogance.) Rick Rude: “Cut the music, cut the applause. All you women out there, don’t be jealous just because I’m standing next to Paul E instead of you tonight. You’re lookin’ at the man who’s gonna put any title he wants exactly where it belongs — around the waist of the Ravishing One. And when I’m done, all your heroes will be flat on their backs, lookin’ up at perfection.” (Hennig sneers, takes the mic.) Curt Hennig: “You’re looking at the PERFECT wrestler. I came here to prove what the world already knows: nobody in WCW can hold a candle to me. Not Steamboat, not Pillman, not Nikita — none of them. I can beat any man in this company any day of the week, and with Paul E in our corner, we’re going to do it in style. WCW wanted me as a free agent? Too late. I chose the Alliance. I chose to take over.” (Paul E snatches the mic back, his eyes wild.) Paul E: “And here’s the part you people don’t understand — we’re just getting started. Tonight was the first shot. But tomorrow, next week, next month — we’re going to carve a path through every single so-called superstar in WCW. Steamboat, Z-Man, the Rockers, Doom, whoever thinks they stand in our way — consider this your death warrant. Because the Dangerous Alliance isn’t here to play fair… we’re here to END this company! WCW is finished — long live the Dangerous Alliance!” (Rude flexes, Hennig smirks, Paul E holds up the cell phone like a trophy as they walk off to nuclear heat.) WCW World-Wide Announcers: Eric Bischoff & Diamond Dallas Page Ron Simmons (w/ Teddy Long) - Simmons wins with a thunderous spinebuster. DDP line: “That’s not just a win, Bischoff, that’s a statement! Simmons is built like money, and he’s ready to cash in.” Shawn Michaels (w/ Marty Jannetty) Michaels wins with a superkick into a flying elbow drop. DDP line: “Look at that kid strut — Marty better watch out, or he’ll be Shawn’s warm-up act forever!” Scott Hall (TV Champion) = Hall wins with the Diamond Death Drop. DDP line: “Nobody gets up from that! But Hall better keep his mouth shut about Rude and Hennig, or he’s gonna end up in traction.” Freebirds (w/ Badstreet & DDP) - Hayes pins Maggs after a DDT with Badstreet running interference. DDP line: “Ha! That’s Badstreet, baby! The Birds are flying high, and the tag belts are comin’ home real soon.” Sid Vicious in a handicap match. Sid stacks both men, powerbombs the top guy, and covers for the pin. DDP line: “Oh my gawd, Bischoff! Sid just wrecked two guys like they were crash-test dummies — and Havoc’s supposed to stop that? Forget it!”
  12. Could I get bill kazmaier, Anthony Durante and Gary wolf?
  13. Clash of the Champions XII “Fall Brawl: Mountain Madness” – Asheville, NC – Civic Center – September 5, 1990 BADSTREET BRAWL The Nasty Boys vs The Freebirds w/ DDP is our opening contest… and boy do these guys go all out and leave it out there for the fans. The crowd is going wild for the brawl as they go all over the ringside area. We get some weapons involved… chairs… and a table spot where Sags gets pushed off the apron on top of it. Hayes and Garvin have a small niche here with the fans but this is the Nasty Boys style of match and they begin to take over. They isolate Jimmy Jam and hit a double gordbuster! Hayes is trying to get away and then when DDP gets up on the apron he gets rocked for his pleasure and goes into the guardrail, overselling like crazy. Hayes is trying to crawl to the back but the Nasty Boys grab him and start walking him back to the ring… wait a moment… what the hell is that… it looks like a Batman Villian… this monster of a guy walks out in a full body suit and a mask that his pony tail is sticking out from. This guy's gotta be about 6’5”, 300 pounds. The Nasty Boys turn around, and Knobbs runs at him but this guy nails him with a clothesline on the ramp! Sags comes up and he gets kicked right in the skull! This big guy hoists him up and puts him in the ring… Hayes gets in, picks up Sags and DDT! 1….2….3! The Freebirds get the win… DDP celebrates with them… then we hear them say that THIS IS BADSTREET BABY! TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP Big Josh w/ El Gigante vs Scott Hall © is up next and the TV Title is on the line. Scott Hall gives him everything he’s got and Big Josh does the same. These two have got some in-ring prowess and actually put on a good contest. Hall is able to get some heat but then Josh is going through some offense and Hall bumps around… but it just isn’t enough. Scott Hall flips some kind of switch and he just beats the shit out of him. A couple of really stiff shots and Hall gets control…. Then sets him up for the Diamond Death Drop! Hall just flicked something inside himself… and he got the win. Hall hoists up the television title… Gigante attempts to get in the ring but Hall backs off up the ramp… NUMBER ONE CONTENDER RUSSIAN CHAIN MATCH! Sting vs Nikita Koloff w/ Ivan Koloff is out next contest… this one has been building for months and it comes to head here. This Russian Chain match just has the two combatants chained together… no turnbuckles or anything else… it is a straight fight - chained together - pinfall or submission… violence is what this one is all about and we get some juice early from both men. Nikita is dawning a crimson mask while Sting has got a gash on the side of his head and his bleach blonde hair is blood-stained. Both men use the chain… they use power moves… both sell like their life is on the line… in the end it is Ivan who tries to get involved. Nikita is there… he sees Ivan pick up Sting and hold him…. But Nikita says to let him go! Now Ivan and Nikita are arguing… Nikita looks out to the crowd…. Rears back and RUSSIAN SICKLES IVAN! OH MY! The crowd pops for that one… then Nikita kicks him out of the ring… he hits the ropes and goes for a SICKLE on Sting who ducks and dropkicks him into the turnbuckle… Sting then runs and STINGER SPLASH! Nikita stumbles out and then Sting wraps the chain around his arm and hits Nikita with his own Russian Sickle! Sting covers for the 1….2…..3!!! Sting is the NEW NUMBER ONE CONTENDER! The crowd is going apeshit right now. Ivan goes into the ring and after Nikita but Sting pulls him off… this is enough for Nikita to get up and Ivan turns around and gets RAILED by the US Champion! Sting takes off his chain… he puts his hand out. Nikita looks to the crowd… takes his chain off… shakes Sting’s hand and the crowd pops! Nikita raises his arm. Both men are bloodied but it seems like the war is over. Sting and Nikita walk back up the ramp… the crowd is still cheering on the Stinger! Johnny Ace vs Sid Vicious is what we all wanted it to be…a true showcase for this monster that is the master and ruler of the world… Sid Vicious. He handles Ace with eacha nd even takes some of his best shots and doesn’t flinch. Ace is able to get in a little offense but Sid no-sells everything and then just comes back with a flurry. A huge kick to the skull. A big chokeslam into the turnbuckle. Sid even hits him with the helicopter spin… hoists him up and POWERBOMB! Sid with the cover for the 1…2….3! Sid Vicious is big, bad, and dangerous! SIX-MAN TAG Demolition & Crush vs The Samoans w/ Gary Hart is up next and these two teams have got a lot of juice in the tank. Demolition come out to a huge pop from the crowd. They are over in a big way and the Samoans look good coming out… these guys all go through the series and have a good 12-minute match. All six-men get involved. Crush is the star of our show and shows off some good strength and power. Demolition is able to keep the crowd involved and get some nice pops here and there. The Samoans are as vicious as as ever. Gary Hart tries to get involved but he gets absolutely rocked when Demolition send Samu into him. We get some chaos and then the finish with Crush chokeslaming Tonga and getting the 3-count! Gary Hart is trying to make his case but the Samoans all take turns and nail him with headbutts and right hands. The Samoans keep their heat as they walk up the back… this one doesn’t seem to be over. Our next contest comes with a lot of anticipation… JJ Dillon comes out to the ring and here GMC announces the team of Flyin Brian and the Z-Man who come out to a huge pop. Then… no music… no promo… here comes Curt Hennig out of the back on the rampway… he walks down and looks just about as cocky as someone could look. He steps into the ring… Pillman and Zenk are asking where his partner is… Hennig grabs the microphone… Hennig: My partner? Ha… I could take the two of you by myself… I am the perfect wrestler… but I decided to share in the fun… actually, I found a partner… but I’ve also found a manger… ladies and gentlemen… Hennig points to the ramp and O M G! Paul E Dangerously walks out of the back and he has got a slick black suit on and his yuppy mullet is running wild… Paul E comes out and then he points to the back… MY GAWD… RAVISHING RICK RUDE IS HERE! Ravishing Rick Rude has arrived in WCW and Paul E is walking him down to the ring and the crowd is in complete shock. Hennig meets them in the aisleway and they shake hands and share hugs… this was a coup from the beginning… Paul E is working the crowd… Rude looks to be in phenomenal shape… Hennig looks great… here we go! OPEN CONTRACT MATCH Flyin Brian & Z-Man vs Curt Hennig and Rick Rude w/ Paul E This ends up being the match that we hoped it would be… Flyin Brian and the Z-Man make no bones about it when it comes to be surprised by Rude and Paul E. They bring the fight and Rude and Hennig don’t look like they’ve got any ring rust. This one is about 12-minutes and they all give it everything they’ve got… but Hennig and Rude are without question the ones in charge. They work over both men and get the edge… Pillman brings the fight in a big way but it is just not enough with both of these guys. Rude’s power is unmatched… Hennig’s technical skills are unequal but Pillman and Zenk bring some speed and aerial attacks. The finish sees Pillman and Rude take the fight outside the ring… Rude hoists him up and drops him right on his throat on the guardrail. Inside the ring… Zenk looks to go up top but Rude pushes him off for Hennig to hit a nasty clothesline. Hennig picks up Zenk and hits him with a PERFECT-PLEX as it is called for the 1…2…3! Eric Bichoff has the unenviable task of going and meeting Paul E with Rude and Hennig on the rampway…JJ Dillon is there…. Paul E doesn’t mince words… Paul E: What am I doing here?!? What are you doing here Dillon? Huh? I was in the offices of Turner Broadcasting this week because I couldn’t get a fair deal in the WCW offices. Everyone I spoke to at the WCW offices wanted nothing to do with my reinstatement… not you… not Jim Ross… not the championship committee… nobody! Well WCW is owned by a corporation… the Turner Broadcasting Company… a billion dollar business… a bunch of yuppies like me running around the CNN center huh? Well I found the ones I needed to and greased their palms and lined their pockets to make sure I was given a fair opportunity… one that was wrongfully taken away from me by that good for nothing Ricky Steamboat and the WCW Board of Directors! I also found two men who have been let down by the forces that be in WCW and Professional Wrestling across the world… together we have made a new Dangerous Alliance that will serve one purpose… the complete destruction of World Championship Wrestling… we will take every title… we will destroy every hero… we will dominate every facet of the sport and you will know… that the Dangerous Alliance RULES WRESTLING. Tremendous heat here on Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, and Paul E. Bichoff can’t get a word in but doesn’t need to as the crowd is really letting them have it. We’ve got more to come here this evening… we’ll be right back! Shawn Michaels & Owen Hart vs Doom w/ Teddy Long This one has been brewing for some time and Doom has already taken two of these guys out and now they have two left. Teddy Long has got Ron Simmons and Butch Reed looking STOUT tonight. These guys look the part and bring the pain. Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart are a fun pairing at this point in their careers… they go move for move with Doom and find some good tag team prowess. We get a lot of double-teaming from both crews and we get to see a lot of tags. It seems as though these four are interchanging every moment… that is until Doom slows it down… they isolate Owen Hart… Michaels continues to try and get in but nothing doing. We see chaos ensue with all four men getting involved but Teddy Long serves his purpose as he causes an issue with Shawn Michaels who goes down and gives him a huge right hand for his pleasure. Inside the ring though… Doom double team Owen and nail him with a huge shoulder breaker! Simmons isn’t done though as he picks him up and does it again! Owen is hurt! Simmons gets the cover while Reed keeps Michaels out of the ring! Doom with the victory and Owen Hart is still down. We see Davey Boy run out… he has got his arm in a sling… Marty comes out and you can tell his arm is hurting… Michaels is screaming at Owen and Davey and then he walks up the aisle… Doom has arrived and completely disrupted the scope of the tag team world here in WCW… what is next for them?!? WCW CHAMPIONSHIP Lex Luger defends the WCW title against Ricky Steamboat in our main event tonight and it has all the glitz and galmour. We get the big entrances from both men… Kama and Race lead Luger to the ring. Steamboat looks to be in tremendous shape and comes out with a huge ovation from the crowd. Ross and Schiavone put over how this could be his night to recapture the WCW World Title. In the ring, we get a solid 10-minutes of early action with Luger playing cat and mouse but it is Luger who doesn’t give Steamboat a chance to lock up. We also see Kama try to get involved and the referee then sends him packing to the delight of the crowd. He threatens to send Race out as well but Race backs up. We then get into more of the meat with the contest… Luger acting as a huge heel and not letting Steamboat get momentum… but when he does it ignites the crowd! In the second 10-minutes of the contest… we see the shift with Steamboat getting some offense going… he is as fast as lightning in that ring and Luger is struggling to keep up. Luger takes a powder out of the ring, and Steamboat not only hits a baseball slide dropkick but comes out and rams the heads of Luger and Race together! Steamboat is rocking right now. He gets Luger back in the ring but it is a nice counter from Luger that sends Steamboat into the middle ropes on his throat and takes control. Luger works the neck and the back and the throat of the dragon and he is looking to finish. The final 10-minutes of the match see Luger in complete control until the Dragon gets ignited. Steamboat is firing with chops and punches and then some DEEEEEP arm drags! Steamboat then hits a nasty flying head scissor takedown and the crowd is rocking. Steamboat goes up top and hits a flying tomahawk chop and Luger goes down to a knee. Steamboat goes to another corner and comes again with a huge chop and Luger goes down! Steamboat is ready to finish and he goes up top… he waits for Luger to get up and Steamboat with a huge high cross body 1…….2……KICK OUT at the last second! Race is sweating like a pig outside the ring… Steamboat goes up to the top again… Luger is in pain and slowly getting up… Race is on the apron and he’s got the referee… WAIT A MINUTE! MUTA! MUTA! MUTA IS HERE! Muta jumps up on the apron and spits the green myst right in Steamboat’s eyes! OMG! Steamboat falls down and nuts himself…. Muta fades into the darkness…. Luger gets up and goes to the ropes and hits a huge SUPERPLEX on Steamboat and gets the cover for the 3-count! The referee is tyring to figure out what is going on… anothe referee heads down to the ring and they are helping Steamboat to the back. Luger is standing in the ring with Race like he had everything under control the entire time… he is walking around the ring with the title… but when he turns around… oh my… STING! STING IS HERE! Sting is in the ring and he looks right at Luger… Luger’s eyes bug out and he is in shock… Sting smiles and says he is coming for the title! Luger swings big but Sting ducks and then hits an atomic drop and Luger goes into Race… Sting then runs for a double clothesline and takes both men out of the ring to the floor! Sting has got the crowd going wild! What a night of action… Sting is the number one contender… Paul E is back with Rude and Hennig… Demolition looks strong with Crush… the Freebirds have got Badstreet on their side… Muta is back and Steamboat had to suffer because of it… Doom is dominant… Sid RULES THE WORLD… WCW is on its way to Halloween Havoc!
  14. I think Vampire should be good to be drafted.... as long as Rey Jr is added as well 😉
  15. August 30th WCW Power Hour - Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff kick us off for an explosive Power Hour as they pumped up the Clash of the Champions later on this week… they run through the card and talk about all the big matches. They even put over how Paul E was seen in Atlanta last night with his attorneys… could he have greased the palms and lined the pockets of those who he wanted to get his job back? We will see. Right now we’ve got a huge hour of wrestling… let’s go to the ring! Bullet Bob and Scott Armstrong kick us off with a good tag team encounter to heat up the crowd. Tatanka continues his momentum with a big win. The Freebirds not only get a tag team win but also give an inset interview where they pump up their issue with the Nasty Boys and how Badstreet isn’t just where they come from but it is a thing… a thing that the Nasty Boys will never forget! Flyin Brian and The Z-Man win another tag team match and put over their issue with Curt Hennig and say that he wants a war well they are going to beat him so bad that the smoke won’t even clear from the first shots! Big Josh gets a nice win with El Gigante at ringside… we hear from Scott Hall who says that Josh is nothing more than a tree that’s already been cut and now it’s going to be put down! WCW Top Ten WCW Champion - Lex Luger Ricky Steamboat Nikita Koloff - US Champion Scott Hall - Television Champion Big Josh Sid Vicious Sting Flyin Brian The Z-man Crush Tatanka Our final segment is the “debut” of Ax and Smash of Demolition! They come out to a huge pop from the crowd… they look to be in great shape and have got all the garb on. They are in there with the State Patrol and we get a solid 10-minute contest with the Patrol getting just enough offense in to be something but the Demolition are masters of Pain and Destruction and they let loose here. In the end, Lt. James Earl gets the Decapitation Device and Demolition get their first win in WCW. Crush comes out to join them and they all finish the show hyping up their six-man with the Samoans at the Clash! We’ve got a big night of action coming up… tune in at 6:05! World Championship Wrestling - Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone bring us in for the go-home show for the Clash of the Champions. We’ve got a lot of action tonight but the thing on JR and Tony’s mind if Paul E Dangerously and him leaving the WCW offices yesterday and we’re now being told that he was ASKED to leave by WCW Officials! Dangerously was in Atlanta again this morning, we’re being told, and needless to say he has got something up his sleeve! We’ll see what happens with this situation as we progress through the evening… let’s head to the ring! Demolition & Crush win six-man action and look fantastic. Crush is still doing the Hawaiian thing… Demolition and him make an odd esthetic right now but a good team! We hear from Gary Hart who has got his Samoans ready to bite through concrete to get at Demolition. Hart says that the six-man at the Clash will be the first of many battles but the lines will be drawn and the Samoans will show their dominance! Scott Hall gets a good television win over Kendall Windham with the Diamond Death Drop. He is so smooth in the ring right now and you can tell he’s got a lot of upside. Big Josh cuts a nice promo with El Gigante… they put over the Clash and how El Gigante is going to be in his corner to make sure no funny business happens with Hall! The Freebirds get a nice tag team win - nothing spectacular but DDP is hyping them up the entire time. We see some distance between the Birds and Dallas but they come together with the knowledge that Badstreet will take care of the Nasty Boys this weekend! The Nasty Boys cut a promo in the back where they look ready for a fight right now. Knobbs and Saggs seem all but ready to go to battle with these guys whenever they want! Doom picks up another good win unter the tutelage of Teddy Long. He says his men are ready to destroy both tag teams come the Clash and then walk away with all four title! Owen and Shawn Michaels cut a promo together and they talk about not knowing one another very well in the ring as partners but they do as opponents. They highlight the others speed and the quickness and the technical prowess but Michaels ends it with saying that Owen better not get in his way… Johnny Ace gets a good win over Jose Estrada Jr… Migeul Perez even comes down to get involved and Ace is able to floor him as well. We know Johnny has some size… he has some strength… but can he stand up to Sid Vicious? In the back we see a video of Sid Vicious… it is almost completely dark… but a light can be seen over Sid Vicious. He has a Towel on his head that looks to be soaked… Sid continues to mutter the words…. Master and Ruler of the World… Johnny Ace… your time has come… the reckoning is upon you and I am the one who is going to carry out the Justice! You will bow down on your knees for forgiveness from the Master and Ruler of the World but I don’t know forgiveness… I only know Pain… Torture… and Agony… and that’s exactly what you’re going to feel at the Clash! Flyin Brian and the Z-Man get a good tag team win and then go to cut a promo with Jim Ross. They put over the Clash and wonder just who Curt Hennig could have… they know he doesn’t have any friends in the back, let alone in the rest of the wrestling world. We get to see Pillman act a little heelish when he is goating Hennig on… for Hennig’s side of things… well… he isn’t here… no sign… no word… will he even show up for the Clash? Who is going to be his partner if he does? Lex Luger brings us back with a powerful promo putting over his looks and legitimacy as WCW World Champion. He says that Rick Steamboat is like a dragon… something of lure of the past… a myth… a folk story… but the real tale is that of the adonis… the greatest body and mind in the history of professional wrestling… the Total Package, Lex Luger, and come the Clash, Ricky Steamboat is going to get a first hand look at the most complete and dominant wrestler in the history of this sport! Ricky Steamboat does his talking in the ring with a nice win… he then goes over to Ross and Tony and puts over the Clash. He says when he came to WCW… he had a couple of goals in mind… one… he wanted to face Muta… he beat him at the Bash and was hoping to face him again but he’s gone. The second goal… was to win the WCW World Title again… this goal is right in front of him and something he wants to accomplish and he will do whatever it takes to get it done this week at the Clash! Before our main event… we get a little sneak peak of the back where Ivan and Nikita Koloff are arguing about something… Ivan shoves the Russian Chain in his face and walks off… Big time contest for our main event… Sting takes on Ivan Koloff in… a match. It is good for what it is worth… Sting has got himself in full on ring shape at this point… he looks great in the ring and really gives Ivan all he can handle. Ivan has got just enough in him to get some heat on Sting but the youngster from Venice Beach is all too ready for this run. In the off moment… we see Nikita come out and he’s got the Russian Chain wrapped around his arm… he walks up to the ring… just in time for Ivan Koloff to Low Blow Sting and then get him wrapped up… he is screaming at Nikita to hit him with the chain but Nikita looks at him… looks at the crowd… looks at Sting… and drops the chain before walking to the back! Ivan is shown screaming at him while Sting gets himself back together… grabs Ivan for a couple of good shots and then a Stinger Splash in the corner. Ivan oversells and falls down in the middle of the ring for Sting to cover him for the 3-count! Sting finishes off the night saying that he is his own man… he wants the best that Nikita has got and he knows Nikita can be a man of his own and a man of honor… he wants the best right there in the middle of the ring and he isn’t afraid to shed blood, sweat, and tears because Sting knows that the World Title shot is on the line and he will do anything he can to get that shot… and Nikita… bring your best because that’s the only way you’ve got a chance pal! Fans we’ll see you this Friday night for the Clash of the Champions, live from Ashville… an enormous card that could shake WCW down to the very foundations!
  16. I'd like to bring in Afa and Sika in a managerial role for WCW. Joey Maggs and Jim Powers can be released if I don't have the space.
  17. August 23rd WCW Power Hour - Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff A good morning of action with Power Hour - Tony and Eric say they have heard rumbling that Paul E has been coercing with the WCW Championship Committee and authority to reinstate his manager’s license. They both think it is a huge mistake and wonder if anyone will take him seriously. We then get down to brass tax with a couple of fun matches to get us going… The Skinner comes out and carves up his talent. The Nasty Boys look great as they prepare for a big showdown with the Freebirds at the Clash. Flyin Brian and the Z-Man continue their tag team rise and work the crowd up when they are talking shit about Curt Hennig and whomever he finds to be his partner. Bullet Bob and Scott Armstrong with a good tag team win… Johnny Ace looks decent… then finally Tatanka gets a good win. WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Ricky Steamboat Scott Hall - TV Champion Nikita Koloff - US Champion Big Josh Sid Vicious Tatanka Sting Flyin Brian Z-Man Crush In our main event this morning… Crush looks on to the ring and walks down the aisle to take on Tonga… with Samu and Fatu outside the ring… They are seething… Crush gets up on the apron… looks in the ring and then looks back towards the ramp and waves his arms… “HERE COMES AX AND HERE COME THE SMASHER… THE DEMOLITION… WALKING DISASTER! PAIN AND DESTRUCTION IS OUR MIDDLE NAME! OH MY! The rumors are true… Ax and Smash are here and they come out to a monster pop from the small crowd here for Power Hour! They walk down to the ring and join Crush on the apron and before you know it they go in the ring and we’ve got a six-man brawl! The crowd is going nuts! Ax, Smash, and Crush clear the ring and the Samoans are backing up the aisle… Gary Hart backs his men up… Tony and Eric are putting this through the roof! World Championship Wrestling - Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone bring us in for a huge night of action… we’ve got some big announcements from JJ Dillon coming here in just a moment but tonight we’ll see this new team that make their debut this morning… plus we’ll see Scott Hall defend the Television Title against El Gigante… Ricky Steamboat takes on Kama… Sting is here… Nikita is here… plus… we have word that Curt Hennig has arrived at the building… fans it is going to be a whale of a night! The Nasty Boys kick things off with a nice win over the State Patrol. The Nasty Boys show off some of their nastiness if you will by beating the shit out of these guys. We hear from the Freebirds who say they are going to take the Nasty Boys to Badstreet once and for all come the Clash and then they are coming for those World Tag Titles! Johnny Ace with a nice win… we find out he is next in line to face Sid Vicious at the Clash… we hear from the big man… Sid is with Eric Bichoff… Eric Bischoff stands in the interview area, mic in hand, looking a bit nervous as the camera pans to the massive Sid Vicious looming beside him, eyes wild and breathing heavy. The crowd is buzzing, a mix of cheers and fear. Eric Bischoff: "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm here with the man who's been destroying everything in his path since his debut—Sid Vicious! Sid, at the Clash of the Champions, you've got Johnny Ace in your sights. What's going through your mind?" Sid Vicious: (grabbing the mic, leaning in close, veins bulging, voice starting low then exploding) "Johnny Ace? JOHNNY ACE?! You think that's a challenge for me, Bischoff? I AM THE MASTER AND RULER OF THE WORLD! I came to WCW to DESTROY, to CRUSH, to BREAK EVERY SINGLE SOUL that dares stand in my way! Johnny Ace, you're just the first victim at the Clash—I'll CHOKESLAM you through the mat, POWERBOMB you into oblivion, and LEAVE YOU LYING THERE LIKE THE PATHETIC WORM YOU ARE! You think you're a wrestler? You're nothing but a speed bump on my road to GREATNESS! And after I wipe the floor with you, Ace, I'm coming for that no-good, overrated GIANT El Gigante! That freak thinks he's big? HE'S NOTHING! I'll TEAR HIM APART piece by piece, BREAK HIS BONES, and SHOW THE WORLD THAT SID VICIOUS IS THE ONLY GIANT THAT MATTERS! I'll POWERBOMB him so hard, the ring will CRUMBLE, and he'll be BEGGING for mercy! But mercy? MERCY IS FOR THE WEAK! And Lex Luger—oh, Luger, you hold that WCW World Championship like it's yours? IT'S MINE! I WANT THAT GOLD! I NEED THAT GOLD! I'll DESTROY anyone—ANYONE—who stands between me and becoming the WORLD CHAMPION! At the Clash, Johnny Ace gets broken! El Gigante gets demolished! And then... the TITLE IS SID'S! I RULE THE WORLD! (Sid throws the mic down, roars at the camera, and storms off, leaving Bischoff stunned.)" Eric Bischoff (recovering, to camera): "Folks, Sid Vicious is unhinged... and the Clash is going to be explosive!" Bullet Bob and Scott Armstrong with a nice little tag team win… nothing crazy but just enough to get them on the map. Tony Schiavone is then joined by Demolition and Crush… Tony Schiavone stands in the interview area, the crowd buzzing as Demolition (Ax and Smash) step into frame, face paint gleaming, chains draped over their shoulders, looking menacing. Crush stands beside them, fired up. Tony Schiavone: "Fans, I'm here with Crush and the debuting Demolition—Ax and Smash! At Clash of the Champions, you three face the Samoans in a six-man tag. What’s the game plan?" Ax: (snarling, grabbing the mic) "Schiavone, the Samoans think they’re tough? They’ve been beatin’ down our boy Crush, playin’ their numbers game! Well, the Samoans just stepped into a WAR ZONE! We’re Demolition, and we don’t just fight—we DESTROY! At the Clash, we’re gonna SMASH Fatu, CRUSH Samu, and AX Tonga in half!" Smash: (leaning in, voice booming) "Gary Hart, you and your Island Boys are gonna learn what destruction’s all about! We’re bringin’ the pain, the chaos, and the DECAPITATION! Crush, our brother, he’s been takin’ your cheap shots, but now he’s got the heavy artillery—US! At the Clash, the Samoans get DEMOLISHED!" Crush: (nodding, intense) "Samoans, you jumped me one too many times! I went back to my roots, called my brothers Ax and Smash! At the Clash, we’re tearin’ you apart! No more runnin’, Hart—this is YOUR END!" Ax: (pointing at the camera) "Samoans, pack your bags! At Clash of the Champions, Demolition and Crush are bringin’ the house down! You’re DONE!" Demolition and Crush raise their fists, roaring, as the crowd erupts. They storm off, leaving Schiavone wide-eyed. Tony Schiavone: "Folks, Demolition and Crush are ready for war at the Clash!" We then see Tatanka in a nice squash win. We notice he has been without Wahoo for a couple of weeks now and seems to have a little more of an aggressive side. Tatanka with a good win though… hitting a nice top rope Tomahawk chop! JJ Dillon comes out to announce that at the Clash we’ll see the six-man tag with the Samoans taking on Demolition and Crush. We’ll see Johnny Ace taking on Sid Vicious. Big Josh taking on Scott Hall for the TV Title… plus a Badstreet Match with the Nasty Boys and the Freebirds! Now… another match is going to be signed… it is a tag team match… Doom… taking on Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart!(WOW!) We’ll see the World Title match with Lex Luger defending against Ricky Steamboat… Sting and Nikita in a Russian Chain Match for the number one contender spot for the World Title! Lastly…. Wait just a moment… Curt Hennig walks out from the side of the entrance arena. Hennig walks over to JJ Dillon… he grabs the microphone… Hennig: Listen… I came out here a couple of weeks ago and just had a simple request… a one on one match… with the best that WCW had to offer… I guess that couldn’t be done… then I was assaulted by Fly Boy Brian… and now he challenges me to a tag team match?!? JJ what the hell is going on here… I thought this was a challenge… a competitive one… but it sounds like you want a WAR… well if it is a WAR you want… then it is a WAR you’ve got! I will be at the Clash… I will have a partner… and we are going to destroy WCW! Hennig walks off to a chorus of boos… what has happened here?!?! Z-Man and Pillman come out and get a nice tag team win over Perez and Castillo… then cut a quick promo on Curt Hennig saying that he could go out and get anyone and it still won’t matter with the result being the same… WCW on top! We get another promo… this time from Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart. We find out that Marty has got a dislocated shoulder along with some muscle damage… and Davey Boy has a broken collarbone… Owen and Shawn say they know one another’s skills… but together they will be greased lightning in a bottle and Doom is going to be in serious trouble! We then see the team of Doom kill a couple of job de bobs while Teddy Long is all smiles. He continues to speak into the camera about Doom being the baddest team in WCW! We’re back with Sting joining Ross and Schiavone. He puts over the Russian Chain match at the Clash… we find out that next week, Sting will face Ivan Koloff… Sting wonders if Nikita can become his own man, away from Ivan. Be the man he was before. A man of honor and respect… but if he doesn’t want to… Sting may beat it back into him! Sting says he’s got his eyes on Lex Luger and if he wins and has to face Ricky Steamboat, he will enjoy the challenge… but if he wins and Lex Luger wins… Sting is going to ENJOY HIS REVENGE! Our next contest is for the television championship, Scott Hall is defending against El Gigante and he’s got Big Josh with him. Needless to say, El Gigante isn’t quite ready for this big of a match but we see how much of a pro Scott Hall is. It isn’t a great match, it’s only five-minutes, and Scott Hall sells for the big guy. Gigante is able to toss Hall around and even gets a big claw on him… Big Josh is trying to get the crowd going… Hall is selling… Scott grabs the arm and goes over to the ropes and falls over the top and ties up El Gigante in the meantime. Gigante falls ass over tea kettle to the floor but his arm is caught in the ropes. The referee is counting… He tries to get back up but Hall comes with a knee right to his skull and Gigante falls backwards but he’s still tied up. The referee gets to 10 and Hall has won via count out. He goes over to lay in a couple more shots but Big Josh comes in to fend him off. These two are going to meet at the Clash! Ross and Schiavone then put over the big night and talk about the Clash. They put over how Paul E has been trying to get his managerial license back…they wonder if he will grease enough palms to get what he wants. They pump up the World Title match as we head to the ring for our main event tonight… wait a minute… after the entrances… we see Luger come out to his “table” and he’s got champaign and shrimp… he’s here to watch the show… here we go! In our main event… we see Ricky Steamboat carry Kama to the best match of his young career. They get 10-minutes and Steamboat has the big guy beat the tar out of him and Steamboat sells in a huge way but then fights his way back with a strong passion. Steamboat nails chop after chop and big shots but Kama continues to come forward. Steamboat then hits a huge dropkick right on the jaw and it staggers the big guy. We see Race beginning to sweat outside the ring… he is circling… wait a minute… here comes Luger now… getting up from his table. Kama is pounding on Steamboat but the Dragon is fighting back with the fire and Race ends up getting on the apron… Steamboat ducks a clothesline and dropkicks Kama into Race who goes flying into Luger! They splatter on the floor… Kama falls backwards into Steamboat who grabs him for a backslide cover for the 1….2…3!! Steamboat has won it and he exits out of the ring. Luger gets in the ring and he’s pissed… Harley Race is irate… Kama is shaking out the cobwebs… Steamboat looks up at Luger and makes the sign with the title belt… could the champion be in danger? Can Ricky Steamboat reclaim the WCW World Title? We’ll find out in 2 weeks at the Clash!
  18. Wrestling Observer Newsletter – WCW News and Rumors As WCW charges toward Clash of the Champions XIII: Fall Brawl – Mountain Madness in Asheville, NC, the promotion is riding high off the Great American Bash and a string of hot TV shows. The Clash card is shaping up to be a banger, with a Russian Chain Match for the No. 1 contendership, a WCW Title defense, and debuts that could shake up the company. Backstage tension, roster changes, and creative shifts are stirring the pot. Here’s the latest on WCW’s direction, the Clash buildup, and what’s being whispered in the locker room. The big news is a shakeup in the commentary booth, with a new voice set to replace Jesse Ventura soon. Word from Atlanta is Ventura’s exit was mutual, with creative differences cited. The debut at Clash is expected to add a fresh dynamic, with Jim Ross and Tony Schiavone already hyping it. Paul E. Dangerously’s “vacation” (post-Bash license loss) continues, with his recent Power Hour limo call from NYC playing up his absence. Insiders say he’s negotiating a return, possibly post-Clash. His absence has left the Freebirds (w/ DDP) and Doom (w/ Teddy Long) to carry the heel load, but both are thriving. The roster’s depth is showing, with Tatanka (No. 7) and Bullet Bob/Scott Armstrong getting TV time, though Savio Vega, Miguel Perez, Jose, and Scotty Williams remain jobber fodder. El Gigante’s role is growing, with Sid’s recent callout and Josh’s backup pointing to a post-Clash feud. However, some in creative are sour on Gigante’s in-ring limitations, and he may need a veteran like Josh to carry him. Mystery Partner: Hennig’s partner is a closely guarded secret, with sources saying a major name signed recently. The Clash debut could lead to an outsider stable. Luger’s Reign: Luger’s title run is safe through Havoc, but some in WCW want Sting to take the belt to capitalize on his crowd support. Steamboat’s a dark horse. Tag Title Picture: The Rockers and Owen/Davey are safe as champions, but Doom and The Freebirds are circling. A four-way feud post-Clash is being floated. Sid’s Future: Sid’s title claim has creative buzzing, but Gigante’s involvement may delay his shot. A Luger/Sid match is penciled for later this year. Paul E.’s Return: Paul E.’s “vacation” is kayfabe, but his return date is unclear.
  19. SummerSlam delivers.... Tito opens it with a big win... Ronin is an awesome name for Sasaki and Hase.... Gang vs Brown is all it was meant to be.... I love the Golden Warrior name but am surprised Jake didn't pull this one out... Funk over Rhodes... again... didn't see this one going this way but good surprise. Hacksaw beats Dino.... love it... and then the actual cage match from Summerslam 1990 was good and it fits here... great stuff top to bottom - I think that the WWF is headed in the right direction.
  20. I love the pacing and style of the AWA in contract to WCW - it is a simplistic feel and sticks to the old school nature. The Horsemen are in complete control... you're building up a couple of guys along the way - Sammartino gets some shine... Texas Red looks to be an upcoming project with a high upside.
  21. Keep the train going... there's a lot of road ahead and you're lining up the light at the end of the tunnel in a huge way! Road Warriors v Steiners is enough to sell out anywhere... Lawler will have new challenges.... USWA continues to blossom.
  22. August 16th WCW Power Hour - Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff welcome us in for another exciting week of action on the Power Hour. This time - we hear a phone call from Paul E who is driving around New York City in a limo and says he is going to be back before too long… but he’s enjoying his spoils of war! Bah… Eric and Tony put over the big day of action - we’ve got a huge match with Doom taking on Davey Boy and Owen… the titles are not on the line… but we’ll also see the WCW Top 10! Let’s go to the ring! Opening things up this morning, we see Sid Vicious kill some jobber dude… he throws him into the guardrail outside the ring much to the delight of some in the crowd but the dismay of some of the younger fans. We see the debut of Bullet Bob and Scott Armstrong as they make a fun little Father/Son team. Tatanka with a good win over Miguel Perez who’s back with Savio and Jose as the Boricuas. We see Kama in a nice showcase with his boss Harley Race out there. The Nasty Boys make their return and they say they aren’t done with the Freebirds and make a challenge for a full on Badstreet Match at The Clash of the Champions! Finally we see Flyin Brian and the Z-Man win a tag team match and they look really solid together. WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Ricky Steamboat Scott Hall - TV Champion Nikita Koloff - US Champion Big Josh Sid Vicious Tatanka Sting Z-Man Flyin Brian Crush Our Main Event has got quite the contest as Doom takes on their first big test in WCW against the United States Tag Team Champions, Davey Boy and Owen Hart. This one goes 13-minutes, which is quite long for Power Hour. Tony and Eric put it through the roof with both teams looking great. Ron Simmons is a man out here and he gives Davey and Owen a run for their money. Bulldog is able to go power for power with each of the members of Doom but doubling up on him is too much. Owen shows off just break-neck speed and quickness that is hard to handle if your Doom. In the end, we see Teddy Long get involved outside of the ring… this draws out Davey Boy. Inside the ring, Doom double up and hit a double hot shot on Owen on the top rope! Then Doom go outside the ring and double team Davey Boy… leading to Ron Simmons picking him up and running his shoulder into the guardrail 4 times! Davey Boy is down and he’s hurt… the referee calls for the bell and awards the match to Owen and Davey but this is bad news here… fans we’ll have more during World Championship Wrestling tonight! World Championship Wrestling - Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone Sting opens us up this week as he’s in singles action! He’s moved up to number 7 in the top ten rankings and he’s got all the momentum behind him. He handles his opponent, Scotty Williams with ease and we see the Stinger Splash and then the Scoprion Death Lock for the win! Sting begins to walk back up the aisle but Ivan Koloff comes out… he is bad mouthing Sting… once his back is turned… Nikita Koloff out of the back… out of the darkness… with the Russian Chain wrapped around his arm… Sickles the living hell out of Sting and he goes down hard! Nikita unwraps the chain and throws it at Ivan Koloff… what a way to kick things off tonight! Flyin Brian and the Z-Man come out to let everyone know that they’ve been looking all over for Curt Hennig but can’t find him anywhere! They spoke to JJ Dillon and they have BOTH signed the contract to challenge Curt Hennig at the Clash of the Champions… if he can somehow find someone to fight with him! WCW is tired of taking orders and now they’re making them… come by yourself or find someone to come with you… at the Clash we’re challenging you!!! Sid Vicious with another big squash this week… he kills some dude and sends him flying on the stretcher… same thing as usual… but this time Sid goes and looks into the camera and says he wants… THE WORLD TITLE! The Samoans win a six-man with Gary Hart… we see Jumpin Jim Powers return here in action… he gets some shine but nothing crazy. Crush comes out and you can see he’s in a rough spot physically… he tells Tony and Ross that he is tired of this numbers game and he had to go back to his roots… he is challenging Tonga next week… and if Samu and Fatu jump in… well he’s got some backup just in case! Big Josh gets a nice win with his buddy El Gigante outside the ring… Tony and JR put him over as the top contender for the TV title! Speaking of the TV title… Scott Hall comes out and says he is sick and tired of being overlooked here in WCW… he’s the TV champion and there is no one better… that pulls Big Josh over with El Gigante… Hall says he’s a real lumberjack and he will cut down that giant oak if he wants some… Big Josh says that sounds like a challenge! The fans pop… Hall says it isn’t a challenge but a death threat… El Gigante then grabs him by the shoulder and says he’ll see him next week! We get some promos from Lex Luger and Ricky Steamboat. The big point for Steamboat is that he’s been WCW champion before… and he wants to become the champion again… he will fight Luger any way he wants but he knows he wants the gold and he’ll do whatever it takes to get it! Luger says he is not interested in sullying his hands with the dragon. He is the golden knight of the WCW and this armor is impenetrable to dragon’s fire and Steamboat is just blowing smoke. He is the total package, the undisputed world champion, and no one will be able to stop him. In fact… Luger doesn’t think that Steamboat is going to make it to the Clash because next week… he’s going to be in one on one action with Kama… let’s see if he can survive that first! Doom wins a quick tag team match… nothing crazy but Teddy Long has got his guys primed. We hear more about Doom’s attack on Davey Boy Smith this morning and we find out that he is still receiving medical attention for a possible seperated shoulder! JJ Dillon walks out and he’s got the Russian Chain that was used earlier tonight by Nikita Koloff. He says that for too long we’ve seen this issue with Sting and Nikita and it must come to an end… and it will at the Clash of the Champions… it will be a RUSSIAN CHAIN MATCH… Crowd Pops… but it will also be a NUMBER ONE CONTENDER MATCH TO SEE WHO WILL FACE THE WORLD CHAMPION AT HALLOWEEN HAVOC! The crowd EXPLODES! Our Main Event tonight is a tag team encounter and one that we’ve been looking forward to for a bit… the Rockers take on the Freebirds… it isn’t much of a big time match as one would hope but it does give us a nice taste of what’s to come. The Rockers and Freebirds put together a fun 12-minute match with both teams showcasing their skills… Freebirds with the showmanship and then the Rockers with the speed. The contrast of styles actually works well and we get quite a bit of action… until Teddy Long shows up with Doom. The crowd is stirring… you can tell that the Freebirds don’t want any of that smoke… but the Rockers are game and before too long we see Doom pull Marty Jannetty down and beat the hell out of him. In the ring, the Freebirds double up on Shawn Michaels and hit a DOUBLE DDT for the 3-count! The Freebirds just pinned the world tag team champions with some help from Doom but this story is far from over. In a mirror image of this morning… Ron Simmons picks up Marty Jannetty and rams him into the ringpost 4 times! He drops Marty like a sack of potatoes… he is a limp body and Doom walks off. Doom has made their point here… what in the world can the Rockers do to counter this? What will Owen and Davey do? What has happened to Marty and the Bulldog?
  23. August 9th WCW Power Hour - Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff bring us in with a special picture from Paul E who is on the beach in the Bahamas. What a guy! This week they are pumping up the Clash in a month along with the number one contender match tonight with Scott Hall and Ricky Steamboat… plus… we have it confirmed… Sting will take on Nikita Koloff tonight! JJ Dillon is expected to address Curt Hennig. Here on the Power Hour… Flyin Brian and Z-Man are back in action plus we’ll see Crush taking on Samu… let’s head to the ring! We have some fun squashes on Power Hour this morning… we’ve got Big Josh and El Gigante in a nice tag team win… the Freebirds get a win but there is some issue with DDP… Tonga and Fatu are in tag team action and get a nice win… we see Tatanka in action along with Johnny Ace getting a nice win! We then see Flyin Brian and the Z-Man in tag team action. They look great and appear to be 100%! We hear from both men after the match… Pillman says he is sick and tired of this Perfect Wrestler… more like a Perfect Punk! If he shows his face tonight… then Pillman will be there to smack his mouth shut! Z-Man says he is back and feels great… right now he’s focused on WCW…but he has Sid Vicious on the back of his mind. He may have injured his body but he can’t do anything to his head which is 100% for WCW and he’ll do anything he can to defend its honor! WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Scott Hall - TV Champion Ricky Steamboat Nikita Koloff - US Champion Big Josh Crush Tatanka Z-Man Sid Vicious Flyin Brian Sting Crush vs Samu w/ Gary Hart - is our main event and they come to blows before the bell even rings. Crush is fighting for his life here; especially when Samu and Tonga come out. Crush fights them off… right and left and even Gary Hart gets rocked! Samu comes with a kick but Crush ducks and he nuts himself on the top rope! Crush then picks him up for a big back body drop and gets the cover for the 3-count! Tonga and Fatu pounce! Crush wins the match but he is destroyed in the process. Gary Hart and his men leave him laying in the middle of the ring… World Championship Wrestling - Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone bring us in for what might be the biggest edition of WCW to date. We’ve got three huge matches… plus numerous others… and we have word JJ Dillon is here and he will address Curt Hennig… fans it is time to get things going, let’s head to the ring! Adam Bomb comes out to a good ovation but Sid comes out and he has got the crowd in the palm of his hand. He works the fans but then he gets in the ring and he and Adam Bomb have a “match.” Well it is a slugfest and no-sell-a-thon! Neither man is giving the other any kind of a break but then Sid breaks through and takes control. Sid with a couple of huge bombs to his back and Adam is breaking down and Sid comes with a running knee right to his skull and the crowd isn’t sure what’s going on! Sid pulls him around and picks him up for a POWERBOMB! Sid looks out to the crowd… he picks up Adam Bomb again… and POWER FN BOMB! Sid drops to a knee and covers him for the 1….2….3!! Sid Vicious is without a doubt the most dangerous man in WCW right now! The Rockers are in tag team action and show off some good skills. Owen Hart and Davey Boy Smith cut a promo as the US tag champs and say they’re excited to challenge the Rockers at the Clash. Teddy Long leads out Doom who kills two punks. Teddy Long continues to make the sign for the gold saying it is just a matter of time! In more of an impromptu brawl/match… Sting and Nikita Koloff go about 8-minutes and hammer one another down to the delight of the crowd! The fans are solidly behind Sting and cheer every move he makes. As noted, not too much of a match, but these two put something together but it is more of the final moments that cause some questions. Nikita gets control and stops Sting’s momentum and Ivan is screaming up a storm outside the ring and pushing Nikita… then Ivan hands him the chain but Nikita doesn’t want it? He looks back at him and says no but Ivan is pushing the chain towards him. Sting then comes from behind and dropkicks Nikita - into Ivan - knocking him out with the chain - then rolling up Nikita for a 3-count! The fans go berserk for this one and Sting gets out of the ring as fast as he can. What a win for the Stinger and this has to make him move up the top 10! Flyin Brian and the Z-Man have a tag team match against the State Patrol and the crowd is solidly behind them. Zenk and Brian have good chemistry and a great look. We then get to a pretty big moment when JJ Dillon comes out and he says he knows Curt Hennig is here… he’d like him to come to the ring. Hennig walks through the crowd, batting away debris and popcorn along the way. He hops the rail and joins JJ. We get an intense promo from JJ who says he is tired of this talk from Hennig… he’s frustrated about having to go through all the wrestlers in the back who want to take a shot at him… Hennig cuts him off to say he is not afraid of any one or two men back there… that brings out Brian Pillman who is being held back a little by Zenk. Pillman gets into the ring and says… Pillman: Listen up Hennig… I think everyone here is sick and tired of you running your mouth! You want to put out a challenge… well I am right here and I’ve got WCW behind my back and I am ready to take you on… right here… right now! Hennig: Listen Fly Boy… I am not in the mood to wrestle you tonight or your buddy the Z-Man! In fact… I don’t do anything that someone else says… I do things when I wnat, how I want, where I want… and you aren’t worth the time… Pillman: There you are… running your mouth again… just keeps running… someone needs to shut it… Hennig: Is that going to be you Fly Boy? Pillman smirks… looks at the crowd, and then he smacks the living hell out of Hennig and the crowd pops hard! Hennig takes the smack, backs up, and goes out of the ring. He says nothing… he jumps over the rail and walks up the aisle through the fans. JJ Dillon smiles and shakes Brian’s hand… but Pillman says this isn’t over! We get to see WCW’s odd couple, Big Josh and El Gigante in tag team action tonight as well… Gigante is getting better in the ring… not good by any means… Ross and Schiavone wonder if Sid will get his wish to see him one on one soon? In our main event… Ricky Steamboat and Scott Hall go one-on-one with the winner going on to the Clash to face Lex Luger. Luger has a table set up at ringside with champagne and caviar. Race is seated next to him. Kama is behind him as they watch on. Hall and Steamboat work a very good television match for 15-minutes. Steamboat brings out every ounce of shine that Hall has got and the fans are eating it up. Scott Hall is able to show off his size and strength with some big lumbering shots but also work some heel moves in there to keep the crowd going. Steamboat has the best shine in the business and fights back with the passion of 1,000 fires. Luger is watching on intently… but then starts to get out of his seat as we get to the finish. Scott Hall has worked the neck and back ferociously throughout the contest and he goes for the Diamond Death Drop… he backs him up into the corner but Steamboat kicks off the ropes - flips over Hall - rolls him up for the 3-count out of nowhere! The crowd is shocked at how fast it happens but Steamboat has won and he is the new number one contender. Luger doesn’t look happy about this at all! Hall is arguing with the referee and this is an opening for Kama to charge the ring and go after Ricky! Luger comes too and he starts to put the boots to him something awful. This draws out Sting to the crowd’s delight and he makes the save with a couple of huge shots on Kama before he exits the ring! Luger makes his move without getting touched as he and Kama and Race all exit stage left. Sting picks up Steamboat and raises his hand. Scott Hall is still pissed outside the ring. JR and Tony put this through the roof… we’ve got our championship match set up for the Clash!
  24. I should have 4 spots open... WCW signs: Miguel Perez Jose Estrada Jr Bob Armstrong Scott Armstrong
  25. August 2nd WCW Power Hour - Tony Schiavone & Eric Bischoff Tony and Eric show off a postcard from Paul E who is traveling the country. He wishes them their worst as he is soaking in the rays out in California! Tony and Eric put over a big show including a top-10 caliber match with Crush taking on Fatu! Plus we’ll see the new team of Doom among others along with the debut of Skinner! Let’s head to the ring! A couple of good squashers this morning… We’ve got a fun tag team of Johnny Ace and Kendall Windham… plus we see The Freebirds in tag team action… Teddy Long shows off the team of Doom… Sid Vicious kills some more schmuck and sends him flying into the guardrail… then we see the debut of the Alligator Hunter… Skinner! Skinner has got quite the look and hits a gatorbreaker… a twisting DDT/shake,rattle, and roll combo! WCW Top 10 WCW Champion - Lex Luger Scott Hall - TV Champion Ricky Steamboat Nikita Koloff - US Champion The Great Muta Big Josh Crush Tatanka Z-Man Sid Vicious Flyin Brian Crush takes on Fatu in our main event. Crush looks great and really puts together a good match with Fatu. Gary Hart has got his hands in everything during the match but it doesn’t go as planned for Crush as we see Samu and Tonga come out and they beat him down something awful. They tie him in the ropes and take turns beating the hell out him… it’s a 3 on 1 beatdown as Tony and Eric put this through the roof. World Championship Wrestling - Jim Ross & Tony Schiavone bring us in to our big show… we’ll see a number of top 10 wrestlers in action tonight… plus the Freebirds take on the Nasty Boys! We see another postcard from Paul E who seems to be enjoying the desert… Ross hopes he gets lost. We’ll hear from Sting tonight… plus WCW Champion, Lex Luger will be here… right now! Lex Luger and Harley Race bring out Kama for his “debut” match in which he beats the hell out of some poor kid and then hits the heart punch to finish it off. Kama looks unstoppable here and Luger has some premiere backup if needed. We then get a Luger and Race promo putting over the big number one contender match next week with Steamboat and Scott Hall. Luger says he will be paying close attention but isn’t worried in the slightest. The fans are cheering on Sting and Luger says that the fans can chant his name all they want but it won’t help him get a shot at the WCW title! Ricky Steamboat wins a nice singles match… big hype for the number one contender match next week. Sid Vicious kills a pair of turds… he stacks them on the stretcher and he’s ready to push them to the back but Adam Bomb stops the stretcher! Bomb tips them over and then he comes face to face with Sid… he points to the ring! Sid smiles and shakes his head… these two guys are going to clash! Big Josh comes out with his buddy El Gigante and gets a nice win as he continues to improve up the top 10! Davey Boy and Owen have a good showcase and once again prove their a top tier team in WCW… the Rockers cut a promo after and say they’ve signed the contract to face them at the Clash! It will be for the WCW World Tag Team Championship and not a title for title match. Doom has a tag team match and Teddy Long is hot under the collar. He goes right to Jim Ross and wants to know who is running this ship and why Doom can’t get a title shot. Ross says they just showed up here two weeks ago… Long says if that’s the case then the next two weeks will spell DOOM for everyone in their path and they will be the only team left standing at the Clash! Flyin Brian is back on WCW after the issues with Lex Luger. He says he’s been keeping an eye on things here in WCW and he wants to address this situation with Curt Hennig. Brian says he feels 100% and if JJ Dillon can’t find someone to come in and face him at the Clash - Flyin Brian would love to put his name in the ring! Scott Hall also gets a nice win tonight and Ross and Schiavone are putting over the big number one contender match next week. Sting gets a nice win over Savio Vega and the fans are cheering for him. He and Jim Ross discuss how he hopes to get back in the ring again and again to rise the ranks of the top 10… that brings out Ivan Koloff with Nikita… Sting says he’s sick and tired of the back and forth… if Nikita wants some… come get some… NEXT WEEK! JR and Tony continue to pump up our big main event with the Nasty Boys taking on the Freebirds until we see Curt Hennig come out from the fans… he’s wondering where JJ Dillon is… in a pretty simple segment… JJ walks out with some security and he tells Hennig that there isn’t one man who has accepted the challenge… but a WHOLE LOCKER ROOM OF PEOPLE! Hennig smiles and says that he isn’t afraid… and that he’d… that’s where JJ cuts him off… if Hennig is still interested… he’ll have a better idea of who will be facing him… more next week. The Nasty Boys vs Freebirds - starts as a match - ends in a double DQ with brawling and Garvin getting laid out with a chair! These four men went balls to the wall in the opening minutes of the match and even DDP gets rocked by the Nasty Boys! The crowd seems 100% for the Nasty Boys here and they work the crowd before handling the Birds in this no-contest. We hear about next week’s big matches…. Sid takes on Adam Bomb… plus the number one contender match with Scott Hall and Ricky the Dragon Steamboat!
