[1991-06-08-WCW-Saturday Night] Desperados vignette

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

Here we go! It's the first Desperados vignette! There's no dialogue in this one, as they seem to be re-enacting Dirty Harry. I have no idea.

When they 1st aired they made no sense. I see they don't make any sense now either.

Just 3 guys arriving in a Western ghost town (you can tell because all the signs are labeled "GHOST TOWN") on horseback, then walking to face off with another man. This was slightly more enthralling than the Master Blasters' legs walking through a junkyard.

Once Upon A Time In The West it ain’t.

Good God man, this is getting sad now.

You can tell WCW wasn't used to doing vignettes like this, because there's nothing at all which suggests wrestling or anything connected with it. Usually, vignettes like this at least tell you who the man you're supposed to be watching is, if nothing else. This looked like something I would have stumbled on by mistake while looking for TBS, or at best a promo for one of their Sunday morning movies (which I still think they did at the time).

 

I don't know if I'm interested in seeing where this goes or not; I just hope it goes somewhere.

Yeah, I'm sure there's a town out there that named itself "Ghost Town." Seems like it'd really bring in the settlers. WCW is getting shockingly bad.
