1994-02-19 WCW Saturday Night

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever you have found this entry.  Today I am checking out the Saturday Night before Superbrawl!  Flair will be here I am sure and so will Vader I am guessing.  I have no idea what is going to be on the show but I think it is time to go find out!

• The Boss...how did WWF not stop this the moment he showed up on TV?
• Why is "Jungle" from the Everglades?
• I love that Heenan just commented about the Everglades and Jungle thing
• Did Steele just use the Stinger Splash?  Now we know why he did not stick around long
• Worst finisher ever!
• Payne was not what you would call a great promo was he?
• A brush your teeth chant!
• I love that the brush your teeth chant is still going for Missy
• I wonder if they Nastys were as sloppy as they appear
• And the Nastys get the win with the worst looking elbow ever
• Did Ray Traylor have that much of an accent in WWF?  I feel like he hid it for Vince
• I was always a big fan of The Patriot and really enjoyed his run in WCW
• Regal challenging the Patriot!  That is why Regal is the greatest TV champ ever!!
• Hell of a dropkick!
• Did Santana ask Scotty Steiner for his 1990 ring gear?
• A big win for the Patriot with the Uncle slam and looks good
• Bagwell vs. Booker T, the match that ruined WCW in 2002!
• Was 1994 the best year for tag teams in WCW since they left the NWA?  
• THAT SHOULD BE A DQ!  Booker went over the top!!!
• Heat was much more of a brawling team here before they renamed them to Booker and Stevie Ray
• Scorpio killed himself!
• I do love this version of Vader, 92-94
• Vader looks like he kills people yet you hear stories he does not.  
• It is so odd that Parker had a job for another 7 years but guys like Bobby Eaton would not
• Weird, the teams are in wrong corners in my mind
• I always like Lightning as Cobra, thought he was underrated
• I do not remember a shoulder breaker in the past from Boss
• Second best piledriver in wrestling!
• It is amazing how much Brian's son looks like him.  It is like looking at a clone!
• Jesus that was a little graphic for 1994!
• This Mauler is AWFUL!

This felt like a very long show and very little movement, which is to be expected.  They have a big PPV tomorrow night but a really long AWFUL main event did not help.  Honestly this show was not good to be honest.  I cannot recommend anything on this show.

1994-02-19 WCW Pro

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is that you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-10-24, I am going into the way back machine and checking out the February 19th WCW Pro.  We are still a day away from Superbrawl so expect some Vader vs. Flair hype and other major matches.  It is time to get it on!

• I think I have seen these matches.  
• Rogers got destroyed, I love Vader squashes!
• I think these are WCW match
• Gotta love Regal and his promos
• Why would anyone cut Missy's hair like that?
• CLUBBERING!!!
• That is probably one of the worst looking elbows of all time
• Why did anyone think Steele was going to be a star?
• He has boots on now!
• Turner and Fonda there?
• Worst finisher EVER!  I would take the knuckle to the head from Slaughter over this
• Do you think Jane gave a damn about this show or Ted?
• Why would Steamboat skin the cat?  Hit the floor, get the DQ win and walk away!
• Fidel was around forever but always seemed clumsy. 
• I wonder how good Rude would have been in an NXT coach type role
• Rude with a leapfrog!  I do not remember him doing that often
• Both of these guys are often forgotten about

These matches were from the previous Saturday Night.  Go back and check out my thoughts as I basically copied the blow by blow above.

1994-02-12 WCW Saturday Night

 

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, August 29, 2020 I am going back once again to 1994 and checking out WCW Saturday night from February 12th.  We find out if Flair is going to man up and fight Vader.  Johnny B. Badd challenges Rick Rude for the big gold belt and more!

• Bockwinkle was a great commish!  Perfect for the role
• Why would anyone cut Missy's hair like that?
• CLUBBERING!!!
• Why did anyone think Steele was going to be a star?
• He has boots on now!
• Turner and Fonda there?
• Worst finisher EVER!  I would take the knuckle to the head from Slaughter over this
• Do you think Jane gave a damn about this show or Ted?
• I do not remember Terry Taylor wrestling at this point in his career
• Why is the Patriot getting a title shot in his debut?  I mean I love the Patriot but seriously?
• Has anyone sold better than Regal?
• Regal does the drop toe differently and is so believable
• I wonder if this Ryzing guy will do anything in pro wrestling....
• Really nice Tiltawhirl backbreaker
• It is so weird that Tony calls Heenan "Bob"
• Why is Anderson teaming with Watts a week fore his TV Title Match?
• Erik Watts would be a star nowadays
• Dear lord did you see how high Roma was!
• Arn got a little cutsie in this match
• Sonny needs to run away now
• And he is going to be unbias on Superbrawl?  HE SHOULD BE FIRED!
• Why would Steamboat skin the cat?  Hit the floor, get the DQ win and walk away!
• The Barney Fife of WCW!
• I think Sasha Banks needs to remember Ray Traylor is the only BOSS!
• I wonder how good Rude would have been in an NXT coach type role
• Rude with a leapfrog!  I do not remember him doing that often

Another great show!  Slightly too long at times, probably should have skipped the Vader interview and the Rhodes/Pillman interview but all really good matches.  Sure I could say things about the Steele match but it was short and it should have been!  Two big debuts, one for WCW for the next few years and one for the future.  Plus maybe Johnny B. Badds best match of his career!

Classic Wrestling: 1994-02-12 Worldwide

 

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-09-21, I am checking out the Feb. 12th 1994 edition of WCW Worldwide.  We are on the doorstep to Superbrawl.  Will Vader be in action?  Will Flair be around?  I think we should go find out!

• I think Travis & Thames, the Southern Posse, go on to be Disorderly conduct but I am not 100% sure
• They are big guys
• I think this and the Bagwell with the Patriot is Bagwell at his peak in the ring
• What is up with that slow count?  Good grief!
• Man how great was Scorpio?  That, I think it was called the tumbleweed, was amazing
• Who dressed Missy?  They should be fired!  
• Oh JBB!
• ITS BARRY GOLDBERG!
• Payne barely got over Ricky there, strange as he is usually solid in the ring, as far as we have seen them
• Uggg, that was stupid, stupid into the face camera shot during the match
• Weekly Regal match and I am excited!
• A perfect drop toe hold, I miss Regal in the ring
• I love William distracting the ref in a usual way, it is the little things that they do
• LOVE IT!  Regal and Sir William were perfect together
• That was a stiff-looking knee from Sags!
• Weird cut right there as Lorenzo came in
• Kinda stiff on Lorenzo the entire time he was in the ring!
• JBB gets to have two interviews?
• It is weird to hear Harlem Heat called Kane and Kole, even though I know they started that way
• No such thing as quiet when it comes to Michael Hayes as well; or so I hear
• Did he really go over the top or did Stevie Ray screw up?
• Nope, the replay shows over the top!

A decent show.  A good Regal match albeit short.  But the psychology that Regal and William use was so good and entertaining.  A good main event until the end and it got a little sloppy but Booker and JBB were still kind of green at the time.  Overall a nice syndicated show, nothing earth shattering was going to happen but it was good.

1994-02-12 WCW Pro

 

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you found this entry. Today, 2020-08-17, I am getting in my way back machine to go to WCW Pro from the 12th of February 1994.  I have no idea what is going to be on the show so I think we should just jump right into it!

• Ah yes Flair and Vader and the bait and switch and bait again for the match
• Two very underrated guys here, Badd and Rogers
• If you do not follow Rogers on Twitter you should but it is NOT safe for work or young children!
• Both of these guys are fantastic and such great characters
• Its too bad Mero could not get a character in WWF that worked because he could have been a star I think
• Another guy that I think we looked down on back in 1994 but today would be a star.  Roma looks good and is smooth in the ring, but he was just average when he was active.  What does that say about this generation?
• Kendall is a little goofy looking
• Roma was just a generation too soon
• I always like Nasty Ned on these enhancement matches
• And Mick is Mick, how can you not like him!
• What is Payne wearing?
• Some miscommunication there between Mick and Tony....or Tony sandbagged him!
• I wonder if there are recordings of the old WCW Hotline, I would love to hear them
• 5 really strong wrestlers and Frankie who is that not bad at all!
• I do not understand how Brad was not a star at this point, just makes no sense!
• Orndorff went for a drop kick?
• Think about it, four of the six guys in this match should be in any Hall of Fame!
• Is Rude the perfect looking man to be a pro wrestler?  Tall, tan, muscular and so well proportioned.  As someone to draw a pro wrestler and it is Rude
• So weird it is Brad that is doing the selling most of the time
• I love that Terry just explained why Brad has been in the ring so much
• Look how happy Rude is in the corner!

A repeat show from Worldwide "last week" but all good matches.  WCW and SMW are the highlights of 1994 6 weeks in.  ECW and WWF (minus the Rocket King) need to step up damn it!  

RESULTS

• Recap:  Vader & Ric Flair (WCW World Champion)

1994-02-05 WCW Saturday Night

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today we are going back to 1994 and the first Saturday Night of February, the 5th.  I am not sure what is on the slate for the show but we are heading to Superbrawl and the Thunderdome.  Will we hear from Vader?  What about Flair?  Lets find out!

• I do love the robot arm for some reason.  Makes me think of my youth probably
• I love Bobby's suits, especially the red and blue ones
• Tom Burton had a solid body, wonder if he would have been more successful in the territories...or was he back in the day for that matter
• Steamboat was so smooth in the ring.  Too bad the injury and his wife kept him down
• It does not pay to be a friend of Ric Flair's
• I miss the old control centers with Mean Gene
• I feel so bad for Tugboat, thought he was going to get a big push and then he literally ran into a wall
• Do you think Mark Starr was under contract at this point or just a weekly payoff
• Also does Starr look like Joe Piscopo or is it just me?
• Was this the best shape Uncle Fred was in during his runs with WWF & WCW?
• How long are both of Pretty Wonderful going to be in the ring together?
• When was the last time you saw an atomic drop?
• It does look like Fred has a halter top on!
• Really nice dropkick by Starr
• The only person who does a better piledriver is Lawler
• I hate good guy Double A
• Tony is wrong, Regal is the BEST TV Champion
• Prettiest spinebuster of all time!  Maybe my favorite move of all time
• You have a Magnum PI rip off and a Barry Goldberg rip off taking on Cobra Sting and some other guy in this match
• It is interesting that Cobra Sting was able to get several gimmicks, did he have pictures of Dusty Rhodes or Eric Bischoff
• Tango also looked a lot like the Tiger King!
• The exact picture of a professional wrestler, Ravishing Rick Rude
• I honestly do not remember Taylor wresting at this point.  I remember the few 1993 WWF appearances but not WCW in 1994
• They are very smart at making TT look strong here since they are bringing him back in as a wrestler at this point
• I always hated Austin's WCW music, did not fit him
• This will probably not be a great match, especially since EVAD was not a great performer
• A hip toss from Boss?  That is different
• At least they made it quick!
• Is Regal the most underrated wrestler?  Well maybe his future (at this point) partner Bobby Eaton is
• Regal makes everything look painful, which is the point!

Sorry I got sucked into that main event.  I could watch Regal all day long every day I think!  Overall a really good show.  They did a lot to advance the Flair & Vader storyline.  They set up a grudge match between Vader and Steamboat as well.  Just a really good show and it shows that from an in ring perspective WCW might have been putting out the best shows in 1994 thus far.

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-29 Worldwide

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-03-28, We are finishing off January WCW shows with Worldwide.  Brian Pillman is on the show and Charlie Norris is taking on His Lordship Steven Regal! 

• Pillman just never did it for me as a babyface
• Man I love this Vader
• I like Cactus but man this team was just not good, and not because of Cactus!
• Payne was just sloppy 
• I liked the future team of Jack and Sullivan better, it just fit better
• It is interesting to see Terry Taylor on multiple shows this week.  I just do not remember him wrestling in 1994
• I always like TT, I think he was his own worst enemy.  Plus he ended up with shit stain
• Payne was in WCW off an on through 2000, he had a decent look aside from looking like Barry Goldberg/Jack Black
• Sting was finally starting to do decent promos in 1994
• If I could only watch one wrestler for the rest of life it would Steven Regal matches.  There honestly is none better in my opinion
• Norris hit those ropes weird
• Regal is just so damn smooth and makes it all look so damn good!
• Look how good Regal is making Norris look
• Norris never looked better than he did during this match, and that is because Regal is that damn good!

Not a great show aside from the Regal match.  He can make anyone, probably even me, look good in that ring.  Aside from that not worth checking out.  A very basic syndicated show.

Classic Wrestling Review: Saturday Night 1994-01-29

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-03-28, I am checking out the WCW after the recent Clash of the Champions.  We will see Col Parker in a chicken suit, Bagwell and Scorpio challenge for the Tag Titles and more!  Plus, and most importantly, we get the debut of Bobby Heenan!!

• Bobby Heenan debuts and it is awesome!
• Terry Taylor back in the ring?  That is not a bad thing
• Look how great and smart Orndorff was, pushing the ropes into the ring
• My version of this show is clocking in at 2 hours and 30 minutes so it is an extra-large edition of WCWSN!
• Roma had an excellent power slam
• Illegal is a sick bird....awesome!
• Watts and Taylor could have been a decent team
• I forget how great Austin was prior to his broken neck
• The one thing that this era of WCW I do not like is that the enhancement matches started to get a little long
• Boone was in good shape but was just a little small 
• This match was sloppy but I like that it looked like a fight
• Pretty sure if I saw my name opposite of Vader I would run.  Rumour has it a lot of people did
• Nelson could have hurt himself there, as he did not go up correctly
• I love the Harlem Heat music!
• Dustin was easily an MVP in 1994
• The fans are digging this match
• I like how much the Equalizer changed his look when he became Evad
• I really REALLY miss the Brain
• It is interesting that Stevie Ray is the one taking the beating
• SPINARONI but it did not make sense
• This match is really taking too long.  If they cannot beat these guys quickly how long will it take in Thunderdome?  A week?
• I wish we could have seen a Dustin Rhodes vs. Booker T feud in their primes!
• I had a birthday during that match, good grief it was long.  Good but way too long
• Bob Cook was a great enhancement talent
• Jungle Jim not so much
• The Thesz Press was just awful
• I love that Bobby accidentally called him Big Boss Man
• I love that this is extremely embarrassing for Col Rob
• The fans are absolutely loving this!!
• Two of my favourites, Eaton and Boss Man
• Sadly they will not mention their history
• The best punch in the history of the profession, Bobby Eaton
• Much like the 6 man earlier, this is taking too long.  I love Bobby Eaton but he is not a top talent at this point
• Look how Bobby took the Boss Man Slam, made it look vicious
• Couldn't be Gordon, he is walking straight!  I love Bobby!
• Both of these guys were underrated performers, especially Henry O. Godwinn
• I love that Bobby is going to tell us why he left the WWF....but only on the hotline!
• How many people in this audience were plants?  That guy in the shirt and tie seems like it
• Missy does not look happy
• Much better tights on Bagwell and Scorpio then at the Clash
• Scorpio makes the Nasty look amazing on offence or defence, it is great
• Bagwell has a great punchable face
• How does a splash on the arm work or hurt anyone but the splashee?
• Good grief Scorpio hit hard on the apron!
• Notice Sags did the "tag" sound?  That is why they were a great classic team
• Then Knobbs did it, love it!  I miss real tag team wrestling
• Bagwell did throw a good punch back then, he got lazier it seems as he went further in his career
• Bagwell screwed his finisher up!
• 
  

A really good show with all good matches, most too long, but all good.  I know people didn't love WCW at this point storyline-wise but the performers were all good to great and many would go on to be mainstays in the WWF for some time.  I think that the main thing was the lack of pacing but overall a good show and worth checking out if you have the time...and let us be honest we all have time to kill right now!

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-29 Power Hour

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-03-27, I am going back to 1994 once again for the last Power Hour of January.  I believe this show will be the same as last weeks Worldwide but we shall see, I am going to watch and probably repeat myself.  I did see we are going to see Hogan....Randy Hogan vs. Vader to start off which I know we saw before.  But we are in the middle of a pandemic and this is a great way for me to shut my mind off with some old school wrastlin' as it were so enough chit chat....

• Hogan's brother is taking on Vader!  Now we know why the Hulkster shows up in a few months
• I like that they are talking about the Clash even though we know this match aired prior to this
• Terry Taylor was not a good announcer most of the time
• Seriously Vader looked like he hurt people....that is because he did
• Bagwell had horrible rhythm even for a white dude
• Even back at this point, Bagwell came off as a heel.  He is not very likeable
• Well that was not quite perfect but he did a pretty fisherman suplex
• I like that Larry talks about Mike "working for the Government".  Man I love Larry
• Michael Hayes was not bad as an announcer, always surprised we did not see him do it more in WWF
• Sting was really over at this point and listen to that crowd!
• Damn is there a better flying clothesline than Rotunda?
• Payne looks a little bit like Barry Goldberg
• The Cole Twins just never took off
• They probably should have had better hair cuts and been heels.  Why have twins that do not cheat with "Twin Magic"

Yeah, this was just another show.  Other than the Vader match nothing to see here.  

RESULTS

• Vader def. Randy Hogan vis countout
• Too Cold Scorpio/Marcus Bagwell def. Nasty Ned/The Claw
• Superbrawl Control Center:  Steven Regal (WCW TV Champion) & Sir William/Arn Anderson
• WCW Flash Back:  Sting def. Mike Rotunda (WCW TV Champion) for the Title

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-27 Clash of the Champions

Good morning, good afternoon, Good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-03-26, we are going back to 1994 and the end of January for the Clash of the Champions!  Ric Flair and Sting take on Vader and Rick Rude.  Plus the match I am waiting for, Dustin Rhodes takes on favorite Steven Regal.  Let us go to the ring....

• BOB HEENAN IS HERE!  BEST DAY OF WCW EVER!!!
• I love that Bobby comes out with his classic one-liners, I know who the Assassin is....the guy in the mask
• I think I say this ever WCW show they are on, but why was Roma not a bigger star?  Has to be the attitude in the back right? 
• Those trunks on Scorpio & Bagwell were just awful!
• Nick Patrick was WAY out of position there
• Why would Orndorff go to the top?
• Wait...that finished Roma off?  Strange finish
• Ah there was an object in the knee pad, I missed that till the replay
• Weird they came back right on action, no intros or anything
• I always liked Ice Train, especially later on as MI Smooth
• Oh man I love Austin with is Southern Accent
• This is the match I was looking forward to!
• I love that Sir William is out there keeping track of the time
• I would pay to see this match today, they would be 10 times better than just about anything put on TV this week
• I do not understand why are none of the announcers wearing masks?
• I love that Bobby could do the serious type announcing and then talk about thumbing both eyes
• Bobby popped Gordan twice thus far
• This is why it was great to have Regal as TV champion.  Regal and Anderson were the best at making these matches
• THAT IS ILLEGAL!  Closed fists
• Regal knows what he is doing, he is keeping Rhodes off guard
• HE HIT SIR WILLIAM!!!  THAT IS DISGUSTING!
•  It is weird that they took Tony out of the booth for Gordan
• MMMM, Missy Hyatt!!
• I do love that Cactus clothesline over the top
• Payne does look like Cousin It!
• Not a great match, but what you expect with three of these men
• Missy better get some shots
• Those fans were booing Pillman winning?
• I love that Parker could wrestle like both a wrestler or a manager, he is woefully underrated
• What is that big hick doing getting involved?!  
• How entertaining was Austin back at this point
• WTF?  THAT WAS A THREE COUNT!
• This is maybe my favourite version of Vader, that 1993-1995 Vader.  The best shape and still had that killer instinct.  
• It is a shame Rick Rude got hurt in the near future of 1994, I think he could still be going otherwise
• Were Vader's best matches in the state with Sting?
• Name another big man that can take moves like that German like Vader did, I will wait
• Was this the best time period of Sting?  The Sting Squadron through Hogan showing up
• I love to hear Flair scream "Oh God" it was so perfect
• A vicious DDT by Rude
• Is Sting loopy here?  He seems really out of it

This was a good show with two great matches.  The two tag matches were okay.  The opening match was there and was really good when Pretty Wonderful was in charge.  Bagwell was still green and Scorpio is good at what he does.  Train and Simmons was just there and probably should not have been on TV yet.  Then you have the Regal/Rhodes match.  Like I said this could happen today and be better than most of the matches on TV.  Both of these men are top ten of all time in my opinion.  Then you had the Nastys match, which was what it was.  Exactly what you expect, sloppy and hard hitting and just the next chapter of their match match.  The chicken suit match was a storyline match but showed how great Parker was in the ring.  And the main event...man Vader was on fire and amazing.  Flair was in his prime.  Rude never looked better and Sting always stepped up with the right men in the ring with him.  Those four should have main event PPV against each other for years but we know who is coming in....brother.

1994-01-29 WCW Pro

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-06-26, I am checking out the Jan. 29th 1994 episode of WCW Pro.  I know these are a little out of order but it as I get them at times!  We have Johnny B. against Slazenger, Jim Steele in action and The Boss, Ric Flair and Sting against Ron Simmons, Steve Austin and Rick Rude from Saturday Night.  Enough talk lets get to the ring!

• Two underrated guys here
• The fans into JBB
• That was a quick match and sadly JBB kind of screwed up the finish
• This is the Vader we should have got in WWF.  Imagine if we had!
• MVP of WCW in 1994 Dustin Rhodes in the ring.  Throw in Regal and JBB and you had the men who carried the company in my opinion
• So this match will go 20 or so minutes and go 50-50 right?  Oh wait this is not 2020 my bad
• Another good showing for Dustin
• Surprised that Steele is not barefoot
• The Thesz Press is the WORST finisher ever
• If I was Al I would...well I would run
• Vader was a monster at this point.  Every time I see him here I think about what Vince should have done with him
• All six of these guys are in the HOF so think about the talent!
• I have said before how much I like Ray Traylor and this might be him as this best in the ring
• Same with Sting and Austin honestly
• If you had to draw what a wrestler looked like you would draw Rick Rude I think
• Fans want Sting, interesting that it is not flair.  But then again Flair as a face just never really worked
• Love the drop toe hold by Simmons and that Solie actually mentioned it
• A sunset flip by Boss?  The first time ever for that?

A decent show.  Nothing special and matches we have seen before but all decent matches.  The only thing I would say to hunt down would be the Vader match because he is so physical!

RESULTS

• Johnny B. Badd def Tex Slazenger

Classic Wrestling: 1994-01-22 WCW Pro

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you found this entry.  Today, 2020/06/20, I am going back in time and catch up with the January 22nd WCW Pro which is new to my collection so it is a little out of order.  Let's go to the ring!

• Larry and Gordan as hour hosts here, nice
• I wonder if the Original Sheik sued this Sheik
• The Sheik is an ugly man!  Looks like a serial killer
• How great are Regal and Dundee
• I do not know why but I think Ron was a better a heel till the end as the APA
• A young Scotty Riggs is one of the things that make me smile watching these old 94 shows because we get to see him grow
• I miss these kinds of matches to grow talent. Now Studd would have kicked out of all those moves and it would have gone 25 minutes
• Wow J.D. has quite the beer gut and his gear really shows it off
• How was Scorpio not a bigger star?  He would be the man now if he came along
• Man the fans loved this team and the ladies loved Bagwell.  Now they can buy a night with him!
• I always found a fit guy doing a splash weird verse a big man like One Man Gang doing it.  Seems weird for Bagwell but right for Gang
• This match is a little long in the tooth at this point.  Okay a lot long in the tooth
• Here is one of the highlights of WCW 1994 Dustin Rhodes
• It is weird to think that the Gambler would probably be a major star now and considered big!
• Sadly a quick match for Dustin after that long tag match
• How did Dustin get to the back so quickly?
• How great were these two?  How is Pillman not in the HOF?
• I love that finish but when was the last time you saw someone bodyslam someone back into the ring?

Another good show.  I know WCW and WWF were in their dark times at this point but I really like WCW in 1994 and WWF had good things as well.  Not much to say other than it was a fun show to watch!

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-22 Worldwide

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry. Today, 2020-02-22, we are going back to 1994 once more to check out the January 22nd edition of WCW Worldwide!  We are going to see HOGAN in action for the first time in 1994....well his brother Randy Hogan.  Too Cool and Marcus Bagwell are here.  The Nastys are in action as are the Cole Twins and others.  So enough chit chat lets go down to Disney and the spinning ring!

• The Godwinns on the way to the ring
• Seriously what kind of tattoo is that that Brian James has?
• Plus with his hair like that he looks so much like his daddy Bullet Bob
• The Godwinns are a guilty pleasure of mine, I always like them either as hog farmers or the Texicans as The Body says
• Why are the people in the background doing the Public Enemy wave?
• It did not look like Sandlin did not help with that suplex
• Is it weird that Sting took his new finisher from a lower mid-card tag team in WCW?  I am sure others did the move but the first people I saw do it was this duo
• I never did like Pillman's interviews
• They decide to recap this feud?  Z-Man and DDP?
• Poor Erik, never got a chance because of his name.  He was not bad but pushed way too quickly by daddy
• Uggg, I hate that underhook arm drag
• That STF looks as good as Cena's....not sure if that is a good or bad thing
• The Cole Twins just never clicked did they?
• Really?  That is their finish?
• Where is Missy...oh there she is...how did I miss those....er....her
• The Nastys are just that are they not?  I wonder how much working was done with them back in the day
• Look at that old lady dance!
• Jesse with quite a few AWA references
• Wait....they just did the Cole Twins finisher!  Did they not watch the other matches?
• That suplex was not quite perfect!  BAM!
• THERE HE IS!  THE NOT IMMORTAL HOGAN!!
• Why did they bill him from LA and not Venice Beach?
• Dear lord look at that strength by Vader!
• HOGAN KICKED OUT!  WATCH OUT FOR THE BOOT VADER!
• HOGAN KICKED OUT AGAIN!
• Interesting, it was not quite the moonsault
• Why is Flair in the back?
• Wait....Fifi is there?  But Mean Gene just teased on the Hotline that Fifi had disappeared
• Ummm, the World does not have corners Naitch!

A very good show this week minus the Cole Twin match.  Sorry they were just very basic.  It shows that the 1994 WCW Roster had amazing tag teams.  Also, is this the best we ever saw Vader?  That 1992-mid 1994 Vader was amazing.  He could move, he could talk, you had Harley out there with him.  I would love to pluck that Vader and put in here in 2020 and let him be him.  Damn that would be amazing with some of the athletes we have now in wrestling!  Overall nothing to seek out but the Vader match is fun because it is Hogan ;)

RESULTS

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-22 WCWSN

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today, 2020-02-13, we are going back in time to 1994 to watch the Jan 22nd edition.  We are building to the Clash of the Champions and I am sure we will hear from Flair and Sting at least.  Enough talk its time to build that WCWSN cyborg!

• I love this version of Missy, I think I say that every time we see her
• Why is Missy wearing jeans, it looks weird
• They are really letting Starr shine
• CLUBBERING!!!!
• If it taking the Nastys this long to beat Oates and Starr they have no chance against Cactus and Maxx
• Listen to the crowd!  They are hot to trot!
• He is on every show, it is like his dad in charge or something!
• Seriously I would have Dustin on every show too because he is one of the best they have
• Why is Dustin getting 15 minutes?  TV Title time limit is supposed to 10.  Obviously, someone is out against his Lordship
• Another great Rhodes match!
• He does NOT speak for me Mean Gene
• TC was a hell of a bumper
• Ron Simmons is the mystery partner!
• We will see Ron Simmons with a cigar a lot in the future
• Is Steel trying to be Jimmy Snuka?
• Look at Bob's hair!
• The Thesz Press is a horrible looking move.  I mean...um....well it looks like they are having sex!
• Really?  Vader is talking about Flair's wife?
• Burton and Scorpio were not in sync there
• Was Austin drunk?  He was making weird faces during the entrance but also during he interview earlier
• What is up with the good guys and their weird long-delayed entrance
• That was the highest reverse atomic drop I have ever seen by Rude and the Boss!
• I think the way the Boss went over the top is one of my favorite bumps
• Sting with a Ron Simmons style powerslam to the man himself

Strangely as I went to post this I did not put any notes of my thoughts for the show so it is just the results!

Classic Wrestling: 1994-01-15 WCW Worldwide

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening....whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today I am going back to 1994 once again to check out WCW Worldwide from January 15th.  Being a syndicated show who knows who or what we will see so let us get to it!

• FLAIR VS. EATON!  YES PLEASE!
• Did Bobby always look the same?  He basically does now!
• Why would the World Champion open the show?
• It was always strange that Nick Patrick was as tall or taller than some of the wrestlers
• Both guys have kept trying the pinfalls after the other raised the shoulder.  Because they are trying to WIN the match not do a bunch of moves
• There is that Eaton right hand, the best in the business
• Babyface Flair is so weird
• Why would Eaton go for the knee knowing it could end up hurting you for the Figure Four?
• It is weird that some 20 plus years later Flair and Fifi get married
• It is so weird to hear them as other names other than Booker T and Stevie Ray
• I hope Harlem Heat returns to fight the Revival.  Just one more time against the best team in wrestling today
• Worst theme music ever!
• This in the ring camera work sucks
• It is almost vertigo-inducing
• Here comes the Stinger!  I wonder what kind of star he would have been had he gone to WWF at some point
• I wish Sting would have gone to WWE instead of TNA so we could have got some of those dream matches like Sting vs. Taker, Sting vs. Triple H, Sting vs. Orton, things like that when he could still go
• Young Fat Man used to love some of those Hard Copy stories like Sexy Swimsuits
• Four Hall of Famers in this main event
• For years I said Randy Orton had the perfect wrestlers body....that is because I forgot about Rick Rude in 1992-1994.  
• THAT IS A DQ!  What is wrong with Randy Anderson!!
• It was always interesting how into the matches the fans were when they were at Disney
• A belly to belly from Rude?  That is a first I think for Rude, at least for me seeing
• I loved Rick Rudes trunks over the years
• There was no finish?  Weird

A GREAT Show with two fantastic matches in the Flair and the tag match.  This is the best show of 1994 thus far easily.  Both of these matches are worth hunting down and checking out!

RESULTS

• Ric Flair (WCW World Champion) def. Bobby Eaton via Submission
• Segment  Harley Race & Vader
• Interview:  Kane & Kole
• History:  Paul Roma/Paul Orndorff vs. Marcus Bagwell/Too Cold Scorpio
• Shockmaster def. Denny Brown
• Interview:  Shockmaster
• Superbrawl Control Center
• Sting def. Nasty Ned via Submission
• Ron Simmons def. Scott Allen
• Interview:  Rick Rude (International Champion)
• Dustin Rhodes/Brian Pillman & Steve Austin (US Champion)/Rick Rude (International Champion) went to a time limit draw

Classic Wrestling Review: 1994-01-15 Power Hour

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have found this blog.  Today we are once again going back to 1994 and checking out the Power Hour from January 15th.  Not sure what is on the show so not a big intro so lets get right to it!

• Terry Taylor on commentary?  Nice!  I like him on the stick for some reason
• I would FEAR Vader for sure
• Dear lord Walby should RUN to quote Bray Wyatt
• Nasty Boys on the way.  I think this was the best version of them!
• OH MY GOD IT IS MISSY HYATT!!!
• Did Road Dogg get that weird ass tattoo removed or just never noticed
• Brian has been doing well?  Really Tony?  Really?
• Knobbs was always kind of sloppy, wasn't he?  But he looked real
• Wait, was the LOD with WCW at this point?  I did not think so
• I cannot wait to see Badd against Regal, two great bright points of WCW at this point
• If there was only one wrestler I would watch for the rest of my life I think it would be Regal.  I think the most underrated performer ever
• Notice how realistic this is.  If I was AEW I would pay Regal ANY amount of money to come in and show how to make it seem like a real fight and not a routine
• Notice that Sir William does such subtle things yet the fans HATE him
• Badd is underrated too.  Most people think he was a little Richard rip off and he was kind of but in the ring he was very smooth and his matches were usually very well done.
• Huh, that was a strange finish
• Wait...they are just cutting the post-match stuff for a Pillman segment?  Weird!
• I know I just said I would pick Regal for the one guy to watch but Dustin Rhodes is a very close second...minus probably that TNA run
• I love that the enhancement talents had different looks in WCW at times and not just a dude in trunks
• I cannot wait till I get to the Clash with Regal against Dustin, that should be a hell of a match
• Two Hall of Famers here, and great performers.  A shame both careers were cut short
• WCW fans sure did love Sting.  Too bad WWE did not do him right
• Wow Mean Gene looks weird here....but remember call that hotline anyway!
• How bad was the Cactus Jack song from Slam Jam?
• Strangely slow kind of boring match here.  Nothing bad but not what I expected from these two teams
• I think this is why because it was going to be a screw job finish
• Good grief that looked like a rough double DDT!

An okay show with a disappointing main event.  I would have probably had the Regal screw job at the end because it was more expected so he would keep the title.  The main event seemed rushed for some reason.  The rest of the show was good but anytime you have Regal and Rhodes on a show it is going to be good, be it 1990 or 2020!

RESULTS

• Vader def. David Walby
• Brian Knobbs/Jerry Sags (WCW Tag Team Champions) def. Bert styles/Brian Armstrong
• Johnny B. Badd def. Steven Regal (WCW TV Champion) via DQ for the Title
• Segment:  Brian Pillman
• Dustin Rhodes def. Nasty Ned
• Segment:  Cactus Jack/Maxx Payne
• Flashback:  Superbrawl 2:  Rick Rude (US Champion) def Ricky Steamboat for the Title
• Music Video:  Sting
• Cactus Jack/Maxx Payne def. Paul Roma/Paul Orndorff via DQ

Classic Wrestling Review: 1995-01-01 WCW Main Event

Good morning, good afternoon, good evening...whenever it is you have found this entry.  Today we are going back to 1995, New Years day and watching some WCW action!  Starrcade just happened and we saw the debut of Randy Savage in WCW.  The Butcher, of all people, was in the main event of the show!  Our hosts are Bobby Heenan and Mean Gene!  This is going to be a recap show most likely but lets go at it!

• Love that Bobby was "Hungover"
• Interactive TV, an idea before its time!
• How many times do you think Sting fought Ric Flair?  1000?  2000?
• Here comes the Hulkster....brother!
• This is NOT fair to Flair!!
• Tony Schiavone is at his best at this point I think.  94-99. Then came Russo....
• What was the deal with Stingers hair at this point?  It has to be two inches tall!
• Hogan is enjoying giving this "fan" an atomic drop!
• I love the old Flair clip of the knee
• This was the weird version of Hogan where he was leaner and just did not look right in my opinion
• HE HIT BUTCHER WITH A CHAIR IN THE FACE!  DEAR LORD HE KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED TO BUTCHERS FACE YEARS AGO!!
• Is that Brad Armstrong in the background?  
• I miss Vader in the ring.  Can you imagine if Vince would have really got behind him in 1996.  He could have been one of the biggest stars WWF ever had!
• Dear lord how hot was Sherri!!!
• How many times did these teams fight?
• CLUBBERING!!!!!  FOUR FISTES ON ONE HEAD!!!
• I could watch Sherri sneak ALL DAY LONG!
• I always hated the Nastys as good guys.  Just didn't fit to have them selling and doing hot tags and such
• How amazing was the Harlem Hangover?  For a man the size of Booker T to do it was a sight to see
• I always liked the tag division back in 1994-1996 with Stars and Stripes, Nastys, Heat, Pretty Wonderful, Sullivan and Cactus, Sullivan and Evad, Bagwell and Scorpio, Steiners, LOD, Sting & Luger and many others
• Watching these old shows makes me wonder who some of these guys are not in the HoF.  Tenta, Vader and Sullivan to name a few.  Yet Koko B. Ware and Brutus are?!  Nothing against those guys but Tenta, Vader and Sullivan are as deserving and Vader and Sullivan more so in my opinion.  But hey at least we get Batista this year!
• Think about it, Tenta was 42 when he passed in 2006.  He could still be wrestling now!  FUCK YOU CANCER!
• I know people hate 1994 WCW but I LOVE IT!  Maybe it is the nostalgia it but it was fun for me
• Is Bobby Eaton the most underrated wrestler of all time?
• Dustin Rhodes vs. Bobby Eaton?  YES PLEASE!
• Dustin is still the highlight of any show he is on 25 years later!  He is the reason to turn into AEW.  
• What is great is that these two can WRESTLE!  
• At this point, I think it is basically a face vs. face match.  Eaton was a heel with Corny and Paul E. but the rest of the time he was basically just a wrestler.  Went out and did it as good as anyone ever
• Three more guys here that should be in the HoF, Eaton, Rhodes and Darsow.  
• Seriously why in the hell is Demolition not in the HoF?  I know they sued Vince but come on Demolition was awesome!
• Oh wait, Eaton was a heel with Regal as the Blue Bloods who I forgot to mention above in the tag teams
• Their segment when they found the OJ knife was classic!
• Dusty Rhodes and Larry Zbyszko were great announcers, throw in Gordan Soile and it shows that WCW had great talent at this time in and out of the ring
• I love that Dustin missed that punch.  I do not know if it was intentional or not but I like that it looked like a fight and not a dance like so much of wrestling today
• BOBBY IS GOING TO FLY!
• SLOW COUNT NICK PATRICK!!
• Also I like that the bulldog came out of nowhere

A nice recap show with an excellent Rhodes vs. Eaton match.  You have Bobby Heenan and Mean Gene as hosts who were fantastic together.  Not much to talk about as it was just a recap of a few matches in 1994.  Also highlighted the next big feud of Hogan and Vader.  I feel like this is when WCW started to turn around and then 18 months later the nWo came and watch out!
