Talk about it here.

It did look familiar. Flair promises a big guest on Flair for the Gold at the Clash!

Ooh, a live Flair for the Gold at the Clash! Can't wait!

 

The Worldwide/WCWSN timelines were always fucked up, it seems. When Worldwide wasn't a week ahead, they were a week behind.

Flair for the Gold is still happening huh. Even as its biggest supporter, the time has passed. Flair and Sting interacting here actually feels fresh somewhat since it had been a couple of years.

I thought for a second that we were getting Flair-Sting for the NWA World title at the Clash, which would have been excellent. No such luck, as instead we get Harley seemingly baiting Ric into a confrontation with his newest team and Sting coming out to help him. Maybe if the Awesome Kongs had had a bit of build that actually made the set I would have cared. As it stands, not a chance.

 

The outfits the Kongs were wearing looked a lot like the furry getup that the Barbarian wore dutring his singles run with Heenan in the WWF. If one of the Kongs is Barby (who used to be known as Konga the Barbarian), I at least partially retract what I said above.
