[1992-11-28-WWF-Superstars] Ric Flair and Razor Ramon / Reverend Slick vignette

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Flair and Razor leave the arena in Richfield pissed off. Then, we get a mildly offensive Slick vignette making fun of black televangelists.

Slick's promo reminded me of Brother Ernest Angel but not as good.

Heated promo from Ric & Razor in an unusual setting for the WWF at the time.

 

Slick is at a pulpit with some stained glass green-screened behind him. Hadn't he been Rev. Slick for most of the year at this point? They're talking up his "new attitude" again and how he's "back." The usage of Slick would just get classier and classier from this point forward.

Flair & Ramon leaving Survivor Series, out of control and hot for Perfect. This was fun and felt different from your standard interview. Then the Reverend Slick is Sunday morning paid programming. Funny line about guy with arthritis in his legs.

Ken Johnson (Slick) was actually an ordained minister, so this wasn't just Vince having a cheap laugh. I would expect him to sound something like this in real life if I walked into his church. Too bad there really weren't any good heel managers for him to play off of; the best of the bunch at this point was Jimmy Hart, and he was turning face once Hogan came back.

 

Nice quick promo from Flair and Hall. It's almost like they knew Flair would be leaving soon and wanted to transfer to Perfect/Razor, the way Hall talked about Curt suckering him. Those two are so great in their roles that if I hadn't already known that they'd been tag champs in the AWA and someone had told me, I'd have laughed right in their face.
