Loss Posted March 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2013 Owen in WCW! They have a cut-in promo with Pillman putting over Owen. Owen is teaming with Ricky Morton, and he's in with really good lower rung guys, but instead of showing what he can do, he works an armbar and his high-flying stuff is no more special than anything Pillman does. He doesn't look as good here as you would think he might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoe Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Back in the old Apter mags they would predict Owen as a future NWA champion. So when he show up I was stoked. Though he'd be gone sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteF3 Posted March 29, 2013 Report Share Posted March 29, 2013 I think the proposed "Wings" tag team of Owen & Pillman could have gone places. Owen looks good here, but unspectacular, and he clearly doesn't have Pillman's fire. He's more about crisp execution, like his older brother, than the high-flying that Pillman and the announcers were hyping up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Ridge Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Owen Hart in WCW. First for me to watch. Owen shows off some of his high flying moves in quick match. I’d be curious to see more of Owen/Morton tag team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajtroma Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 I remember Owen in a couple WCWSN matches (against Joe Cazana & Mark "Killer" Kyle) as well as syndie/other TBS shows matches with Rip Rogers and Keith Hart (who they called "Keith Stark" for that one).

soup23 Posted June 19, 2013 Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 There is something so bizarre with hearing TOny call an Owen match. He looks ok here but doesn't get a chance to do a whole lot besides a nice kip up. Him and Morton as a team is a cool sight to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garretta Posted May 15, 2015 Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 They were still introducing Owen to the WCW audience here, so it made sense that he didn't overdo it. He and Ricky make a cool team, but I think what Dusty really wanted was for Owen to team with Pillman, as was mentioned above. Unfortunately, it seems like Owen left before that could happen. Â Zbyszko continues to impress me with his straightforward commentary on Pro. I thought he'd be a lot like Jesse Ventura, especially since he was still wrestling regularly as a heel. But he's a great complement to Tony, and for sheer quality of analysis may be the best color man in the business at this point, despite being a broadcaster for less than a month.

dawho5 Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 Owen with some generic agility stuff, but I would agree that you don't want him doing too much too soon. Odd that the thing that really made Pillman stand out was his intensity and Owen stood out for his execution. Yet WCW wanted to push them for their amazing aerial attacks. Okay, not odd. What is the word I am looking for? Oh, it's very WCW that they did that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajtroma Posted December 26, 2017 Report Share Posted December 26, 2017 I think Owen had already quit WCW by the time this aired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
