[1992-06-20-WCW-Saturday Night] Interview: Arn Anderson

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Dusty interviews Arn Anderson, who talks about going after the world title. This could have been an interesting storyline had they stuck with it, but I understand why they didn't. Arn gives a typically good promo, saying mostly the same stuff he's said before.

Another gold star interview from Arn. Still when I watched this stuff originally I was like their is no way Arn is going to beat Sting.

[Kevin Ridge]

Arn wants to abandon the tag team ranks and go after Sting. Pretty good promo. I may not believe he could beat Sting but I'd root for him.

[WingedEagle]

AA setting his sights on Sting. I'm not complaining, but it seems like they went to a lot more trouble to set up Arn as an interim challenger for a tv show or 2 given how comparably little they'd do for some big programs. But its Arn on the stick, so I'll take it.

Arn was never going to light the world on fire as even a quickie house show main event single, but in a perfect world this match would have co-headlined a Clash.

[MikeCampbell]

Nice promo from Arn, making the Sting challenge out to be a big deal. To bad it didn't go anywhere.

[garretta]

I'm surprised they're pushing this as hard as they are when Sting/Vader is where they've placed their bets. Maybe they didn't know how Vader would get over and needed a backup plan in case he fizzed at the gate. At least Arn was a known name who they knew could give Sting a run for his money until they could set up another challenger for him.

 

There's still a slight hint of animosity between Arn and Dusty, as Arn accuses Dusty of trying to get inside his head. It's subtle stuff, but a nice nod to history nonetheless.

I liked Arn telling Dusty off as well.  We had heard the rest before.

Arn talks about being focused on Sting and winning the World title for himself, despite this airing the same night as Beach Blast where Arn is in a 6-Man Tag.

Arn had a two house show matches against Sting shortly after this but unfortunately this didn't really go anywhere.
