spaldoni Posted December 28, 2024 Report Share Posted December 28, 2024 Future Shock! Great way to open the show by featuring the exciting new stars. YES! Power and Glory get some gold. I loooooooooove them Damn! I think Liger and Owen might've stolen the show Hard act to follow, but Garvin and Martel did a top notch job. Road Warriors get the huge pop but those darn NWA/WCW rules put a damper on the special moment Sting gets the flash pin but I know Sherri and Spivey arent finished yet. Rich still has some fire but Muta's in a league of his own right now. Cool seeing the Diamond Stud debut in our game. Ventura was a nice touch putting him over. Luger finally wins the big one! Can he lead WCW into the 90s? We shall see. Well done passing of the torch moment. Awesome show! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted December 30, 2024 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2024 WCW Power Hour - December 29 Gordon Solie & Paul E Dangerously welcome us in for a nice highlight show of the Future Shock PPV. We see highlights from the six-man with Bulldog, Z-Man, and Pillman going over. We also see the match between Owen and Liger highlighted in a major way. Paul E goes on and on all episode about how the Great Muta is the rightful number one contender for the WCW title and he will not rest until Lex Luger signs the contract. Tomorrow night in the Omni… Flair teams with Muta against Luger and Sting and once Muta pins Luger there will be no doubt who is the rightful champion. In action, we see the JYD win a decent match… also the new US tag team champions, Power and Glory look good. We hear from Brother Love who says that Ron Garvin is not going to be able to get away tomorrow night in the Omni when Rick Martel takes on him for the TV title! We get a ruling from Jim Herd on the state of the WCW and NWA Tag titles. We find out that the NWA titles are currently held by Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard. The WCW titles did change hands at Future Shock. The Road Warriors will defend the WCW tag titles tomorrow night in the Omni while Anderson and Blanchard defend the NWA tag titles against the Rockers. The United States Championship is currently vacant due to Lex Luger winning the World title. The title is being held up in a special three day gauntlet tournament… we’ll have four matches that take place on Power Hour… two matches on World Championship Westling and then the finals on Main Event to crown the new United States Champion. That tournament will be coming up in a matter of weeks. Our final contests see the Bob Orton and Harley Race win a tag team encounter along with Tully Blanchard getting a singles victory. Our main event saw The One Man Gang defeat Big Josh with help from Kevin Sullivan… but here comes the JYD to even the odds! World Championship Wrestling - December 30 Tony Schaivone & Jesse Ventura bring us in for a big night of WCW action. They put over Future Shock in a big way and we kick things off with Lex Luger coming out to a grand ovation. He looks good with the WCW big gold belt and he works the fans. He talks about working so hard for this title and it coming to fruition in front of a record crowd and a worldwide audience. Just as he gets going we see Ric Flair walk out and he’s got Ole, Arn, and Tully with him. They get right in Luger’s face but he no sells it to let them know he isn’t afraid. He has climbed the mountain and now he will take on anyone who will try to take what is rightfully his. This brings out the Great Muta and Paul E. Dangerously is on a roll tonight and he’s letting everyone have it… he says that tomorrow night in the Omni, Flair and Muta are going to put him and Stin…. Wait a moment… here comes the Stinger. The crowd gives no doubt who the top dawg is. He comes down to the ring and he sides with Luger… just then JJ Dillon steps in to let everyone know he’s been made the assistant to Jim Herd and will no longer be affiliated with the Horsemen… thus… he has the ability to make matches… and tonight he is doing so… tonight Sting and Luger need to find two partners to take on the Horsemen and Muta in an eight-man tag team main event! We see the ever exciting Owen Hart come out on top in singles action… he cuts a promo on how good Liger was but how he knows he can beat him and he’ll prove it tomorrow night in the Omni! The Road Warriors made quick work of two jobbers and said that the WCW tag titles are one of three in the company right now but one of one when it comes to what matters. They are going to keep an close eye on the NWA tag title match tomorrow night in the Omni and they will be the first ones to take the titles from them… put them with theirs and be the undisputed kings of tag team wrestling! Jesse Ventura puts over the Diamond Stud Scott Hall who will make his debut in the Omni tomorrow night Savio Vega gets a win with the Boricuas outside the ring. Gary Hart lets the Berzerker kill someone… win via count out. We see Sting and Luger in the back with Eric Bischoff… they are talking about who to get as partners and then we see the Rockers walk in the scene… shake hands… well… here we go! Rick Martel gets a nice win and he and Brother Love run down Ron Garvin. Michael Rotundo & Curtís Hughes won a tag team encounter. In the main event, in an eight-man tag team match, The Great Muta pinned Marty Jannetty. The Horsemen were reluctant to tag in Muta but then they wouldn’t accept his tag to get out of the ring. Sting, Luger, and the Rockers played well enough together. The chaos ensued at the end which led to the nasty shining wizard. We saw Flair/Muta/Luger/Sting all going at it to finish the show… they’ll face off tomorrow night in the Omni! WCW The Main Event - December 31 Eric Bischoff & Bob Caudle put over a fun episode of Main Event that highlights Future Shock. We see the TV title and US tag title matches in full along with words from Brother Love. Eric and Bob put over the big night in the Omni and talk about Flair and Muta vs Sting and Luger. We then see the World Tag Title match in full to close out the show… nothing special but more or less a way to promote what happened at Future Shock and what will go down tonight in the Omni! WCW Live from the Omni - December 31 Jushin Liger and Owen Hart had an awesome 20-minute contest but this time it was Owen Hart who snuck out a controversial victory with a German Suplex double pin situation. Multiple referees had a say but in the end it was Owen who walked away with the victory. Television Championship Ron Garvin vs Rick Martel was an interesting contest. This one went almost 15-minutes again… but in the end it was Martel who won via DQ when Ron Garvin destroyed him with a steel chair! Martel laid motionless while Garvin knocked out Brother Love and stood with the tv title! The One Man Gang and Kevin Sullivan defeated Big Josh and The Junkyard Dog WCW United States Tag Titles - The Power and Glory defeated the Nasty Boys with interference from Brother Love. Flyin Brian, The Z-Man, & British Bulldog defeated The Samoans & Abdullah the Butcher w/ Gary Hart in six-man action. WCW Tag Titles - The Road Warriors defeated Harley Race and Bob Orton in a roughneck match that saw a lot of brawling. Orton and Race didn’t appear to want to bump and the Road Warriors no-sold everything… so that was fun. The Diamond Stud Scott Hall made his WCW debut an beat the hell out of Johnny Ace. NWA Tag Titles -In a 30-minute classic… the Rockers defeated Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard to become the NWA World Tag Team Champions. Tully Blanchard seemed to have really hurt his arm during the match but kept going. He ended up eating the pin after a double super kick took Arn out of the ring and then the Rockers were able to 2 on 1 and get the victory. Kona Crush defeated the Berzeker w/ Gary Hart via DQ MAIN EVENT Lex Luger and Sting defeated The Great Muta and Ric Flair - Muta went to MYST Luger but he ducked and Flair got a face full of green. Luger clotheslined Muta out of the ring to the floor… Sting came off the top rope with a splash and got the 3-count on Flair for the victory.

Autistic Dragon Posted December 30, 2024 Report Share Posted December 30, 2024 Television. I'm sure Jim Herd giving JJ matchmaking abilities won't backfire in any way whatsoever. Though his first main event was admittedly a doozy. Love the idea of turning the gauntlet into a tournament. The Omni. Owen evens the score with Liger albeit with an asterisk. Garvin snaps and lays out Martel and Brother Love. OMG and Sullivan always were a good team. Brother Love recovers from the beating Ron gave him enough to save the US tag titles. Pillman, Zenk & Smith are proving to be quite the trio. The Roadies tend off the grizzled veterans. Hall shines in his debut. The Rockers capitalize of an injured Blanchard to capture the NWA World Tag Team Titles. Berserker got a little too out of control. A Flair/Muta misfire ends in disaster.

spaldoni Posted Sunday at 08:42 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 08:42 PM Great job with the Future Shock aftermath which segued nicely into the Omni card. Owen and Liger could have a series of matches that will be talked about for years to come. The heel in Garvin comes out as he uses a chair and his title to clean house. It's fun watching OMG and Sullivan wreak havoc. People better pay attention to Power and Glory. Loved that 6 man match up with the exciting youngsters defeating the brutal savages. LOL, the Road Warriors get the win but Race and Orton sure didn't get pushed over. Diamond Stud lives up to Ventura's hype. WOW! Just like that, the Rockers win the gold! Tully might be taking a hiatus. Kona and Bezerker could be a fun big man feud Hmmmm, after that I don't think Flair's going to be too happy with Muta.

We get Paul E putting over Muta throughout the entire hour and Gordon says he should definitely face Luger for the title… when he’s the rightful number one contender. Paul E is fuming at that one. We have a couple of decent matches on the card… The Hog Farmers make their debutish… fun little team with some good spirit from the fans. Flyin Brian gets a nice singles win. We get footage from James J Dillon who is assistant to the regional manager here in WCW. He lets us know that we’ll see a special United States Championship tournament in one month. Between now and then… we will need to see the best of the best here in WCW and decide who will make it to the final eight to run the gauntlet.

Plus we’ll see three different tag team championship matches… those matches will be announced in the coming weeks. The One Man Gang w/ Kevn Sullivan beats the hell out of two random dudes. Tatanka w/ Wahoo gets a nice victory. Wahoo seems to be nursing some shoulder issues. WCW Top Ten WCW World Champion - Lex Luger Ric Flair Sting The Great Muta - International Champion Ron Garvin - Television Champion Rick Martel Jushin Thunder Liger Junkyard Dog Arn Anderson Tommy Rich Scott Hall Main Event - Big Josh & The JYD defeated the Samoans w/ Gary Hart via DQ! World Championship Wrestling 1/4 Tony Schiavone & Jesse Ventura bring us in for a huge night of action. They put over the announcement from JJ Dillion… We get footage from James J Dillon who is assistant to the regional manager here in WCW. He lets us know that we’ll see a special United States Championship tournament in one month. Between now and then… we will need to see the best of the best here in WCW and decide who will make it to the final eight to run the gauntlet.

The Rockers get a nice tag team victory… it doesn’t last long though… here come the Road Warriors… they are talking a big game but the Rockers aren’t backing down. Abdullah the Butcher & The Samoans w/ Gary Hart win a six-man contest. We get a special promo with Gordon Solie in the back… he’s with Ric Flair and Arn Anderson… Ole Anderson is in his non-wrestling gear… but Tully Blanchard is in a suit with a sling on his arm. We find out that Tully has been sidelined for the time-being… his arm is in a bad way. Ole Anderson is going to will be more of an advisor for the Horsemen and step in the ring when he needs to. Arn Anderson is now 100% focused on the WCW television and United States championships. Ric Flair is now the hunter and he’s hungry. Lex Luger has exactly what he needs to be filled and he’s going to push him to every limit he’s got to get the WCW World Title back. If Sting continues to but his nose in Flair’s business…. Then he will be the one who goes down… and goes down hard! Television Champion - Ron Garvin won a singles match against Bill Irwin - Rick Martel and Brother Love were quick to point out how he cheated to beat Martel… Ron says why don’t we do it with NO dqs then! Martel says he has a face of granite and Garvin says his hands of Stone will bust that granite into pieces! The Diamond Studd - Scott Hall wins a singles match with a nasty Diamond Death Drop! We get a promo from WCW Champion, Lex Luger. He puts over Future Shock and the Omni card… he says he is going to keep a close eye on the US title tournament. He knows what that title is all about and he’s proud to have added to its legacy… that’s when things take a turn. Out of the back walks Ivan and Nikita Koloff! They walk over to Luger and Nikita is quick to point out how he’s sick and stirred of seeing that title that he held with honor become a prop for people who want to be something. Nikita says he is the most fierce competitor in the history of the NWA and he’s back in WCW with the help of his Uncle Ivan to achieve the destiny of the Kremlin… to gain the WCW World Heavyweight Championship! Luger says that History will repeat itself if Nikita decides to step in that ring with him… Nikita swipes the title from Luger’s hand! Oh man… security comes out… Nikita is backed off…. Luger has got to worry about Flair, Muta, and now Nikita! The Nasty Boys put together a pretty good tag team match and work the crowd. They have a nice little following going. We get the Wildfire in singles action and he has got the crowd behind him. We find out that he and the JYD will be teaming up tomorrow night on the Main Event against Kevin Sullivan and the One Man Gang! Gordon Solie is with Sting and out comes JJ Dillon. We find out that Sting is announced as the number one contender for the WCW Championship and he will face the champion at WrestleWar on February the 26th! Sting points out how there is a lot of time between now and then and he knows a lot can happen but he’s going to prove to everyone why he’s the number one contender and when it comes to WrestleWar… he is going to bring everything he’s got! In our main event tonight - The Great Muta w/ Paul E defeated Tatanka w/ Wahoo McDaniel. Tatanka gave him a lot of fight but Muta was way too much. Muta hit a moonsault from across the ring that lit up the crowd - won the match - and showed the world why he may be the next World Champion - if he ever gets the chance!

Autistic Dragon Posted Monday at 05:02 AM Report Share Posted Monday at 05:02 AM The Koloffs are here and waste no time putting Luger on notice. Speaking of Luger, I wonder how he's reacting to the news that he has to team with Sting to take on the Horsemen before defending the World title against him at WrestleWar. Muta continues to make an impressive case for a world title shot. OMG may have just put JYD down for good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
