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!
