[1990-02-06-NWA-Clash of the Champions X] Wrestle War '90: Wild Thing, The Rap

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Oof, this was supposed to be the alternate version of the rap that also aired during this show, but it's a repeat of the one from before.

[Kevin Ridge]

Yeah, I wasn't sure what was the difference here.

[Cox]

Awww I was looking forward to the remix.

[Loss]

This is what should have been here, just so we're clear:

 

[Laney]

I actually like this more than the first ad. The song isn't as corny though. It gave a nice rundown of the card and a Tim and Eric like lip sync of "Wild Thing" using Flair and Sting at the end.

[garretta]

A little better than the last one because it actually hypes the card.

 

What did they mean by Sting being a "dream of etymology"? I'm guessing they just needed a rhyme for "biology".

[Hawkeye12]

Entomology is the study of insects, so they shoehorned the scorpion image in there.

[PeteF3]

Of course, scorpions aren't insects, they're arachnids.

[Hawkeye12]

It's generally come to encompass the study of insects, arachnids, worms, slugs, and pretty much anything of that nature. Arachnology would be the more accurate choice of words for spiders or scorpions. I enjoy that wrestling related discussions can go it all sorts of directions you would never expect lol! That said, I enjoy this rap version the best and while that Flair-Luger match is my favorite ever between them, Lex vs. Dr Death would've definitely been interesting.

Of course, scorpions aren't insects, they're arachnids.

We did cover arachnids in my entomology class in college, so I guess it CAN fit in there (the joys of a conservation degree). Anyway, I got a good enough laugh out of this rap.

[drew wardlaw]

Are we still a year out from PN News? I reckon PN collaborated with the same producer for some of his freestyles.

[GSR]

Again not great, but at least this was better than the first one!
