[1990-05-11-NWA-Power Hour] Interview: Ric Flair & Woman

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Flair and Woman seem to be really starting to gel as a couple now. They always had chemistry, but this is the best. Flair cuts a good promo on Luger, and Woman seems more comfortable than ever on camera. WCW suddenly deciding to ditch her in a few weeks so they can focus on getting Missy Hyatt over was a pretty stupid move.

[PeteF3]

God forbid you have two women in one promotion. It's not like Liz and Sherri were unable to coexist.

[soup23]

Agree that Flair/Woman really felt like a singular unit here and it sad that there time together is coming to a close.

Solie reminds Flair that the Horsemen will be outside the cage at Capitol Combat. Robocop gets first billing of names Flair calls out.

[Cox]

Flair seems pretty confident that the Horsemen will come out on top thanks to the acquisition of Sid. Gordon Solie insinuates that Woman fucked Sid to get him to join the Horsemen, which Woman doesn't really deny either. Jim Ross says Paul E. Dangerously is back next week, so I guess he's gone from ICW at this point, which is a shame, as I'd like to have seen more of him with the Lethal Weapons.

[garretta]

If there was any implication of sexual favors in the Woman/Sid deal, I either missed it or Gordon no-sold it, which is what you'd expect from the Walter Cronkite of professional wrestling.

 

Anyway, I agree with everything that's been said about Woman fitting in with the Horsemen so well. She's improved tremendously in the last month, and you can tell that she's found her place within the group. If it's true that they dumped her because there could only be one over female in the company, and the female they chose was Missy Hyatt, they made the mistake of their lives. Maybe Eddie Gilbert was making noises about wanting to leave and they were trying to keep him happy, but it didn't work; he went back to Memphis anyway, which was a better fit for him and would have been a better fit for Missy too.

 

God bless Flair for continuing to sell Robocop as a threat to him without laughing his ass off.

[drew wardlaw]

I don't remember Woman being vocal or this good, so it's cool and surprising to see. Very cool. Flair focuses on Luger here, rather than Robocop.

[GSR]

Ric Flair and Woman are with Gordon Solie and Solie is surprised that Woman was able to get Sid Vicious as one of the Horsemen. She says, as he knows, she was on a manhunt and she got her man. Flair says that when Woman and the Horseman got together, they put together the greatest sports package today: money, brains, and with the acquisition of Sid Vicious, more brawn than the Road Warriors, the Steiner Brothers, Lex Luger and Sting are prepared to deal with. When the cage goes down at Capital Combat is doesn’t matter about Sting or Robocop because Lex Luger is going to bleed, he’s going to sweat and he’s going to find out why he is the World Heavyweight champion!
