[1992-10-31-WCW-Saturday Night] Erik Watts vignette

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

In case you ever want to know Erik's opinion on such concepts as leadership, competition, intimidation and career. He's looking off in the distance talking to no one in particular.

[shoe]

This was just lame.

[El-P]

Marcus Bagwell's debut was handled well.

Erik Watts's debut is already grating.

[Zenjo]

A glimpse into the mind of the boy wonder. He must have been hazed so badly. I quite enjoyed this vignette because it sucked.

[PeteF3]

Erik was obviously a good athlete but he didn't look like one or really wrestle like one, and perception is reality in wrestling. All the people in that Bleacher Report list had better looks than Watts.

[WingedEagle]

We get Watts' feelings on leadership, competition, intimidation, career. Then clip of him in the ring. Very different from the promos introducing Crush, but just as awful in their own special way.

[garretta]

To talk about intimidation and leadership when your career has barely started and you've got the pretty boy looks Erik does here is insane. If he was three hundred pounds like his dad was in his prime, then maybe he could have pulled it off. As it was, this kind of stuff was laughable coming from him.

 

I'm willing to give the kid a chance on his own merits, whatever they may be, but please, Pops, stop trying to make him another version of you. He's about seventy pounds too light and twenty years too young.
