[1997-05-19-WCW-Nitro] Ric Flair vs Syxx

[Loss]

Talk about it here.

[Loss]

Syxx jumps Flair right at the bell and Flair rallies a big comeback. This match is over after about a minute when Hall and Nash come in to lay out Flair. No babyfaces are there to help him, which the announcers explain. The NWO beat up every referee that tries to break this up and cut a pretty strong heel promo to wrap things up.

Syxx does his own Flair flop after a couple chops. Very short as Hall and Nash interfere and hit their finishers on Flair. Nobody comes to Flair’s aid.

Pretty subdued episode of Nitro with a lot of focus put on Flair. Not terrible stuff here but nothing earth shattering either.

[El-P]

Wolfpack get some heat back on Flair. Nice attention to detail as they had the Horsemen banned from the building after McMicheal threw a fit backstage going after Kevin Green who cost him and Jarrett the match against the Steiners. So Flair is getting beat up to continue the feud with the Wolfpack.

Good segment to put more heat on the NWO, and what heat they draw in Flair Country. No Horsemen in the building--they all got thrown out because McMichael and Kevin Greene got into it backstage, and it's also explained that Piper isn't there either.
