Pretty fair list IMO

Sting and Hennig did not sustain their momentum. Luger peaked the previous summer. Konnan was breaking down...

Imagine Brian Armstrong and Maxx Payne’s grunge rockers being to ‘95 Hulk Hogan what the hillbillies were to ‘85 Hogan.

 

[Valeyard]

I absolutely can. Hogan needed human shield bros in WCW.

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Yeah, I think that’s the biggest problem with ‘94-‘95 Hogan. Even his lackeys were put over super strongly.

 

[Valeyard]

He could've used second-string allies, at least. Like the kinda midcard guys who could've filled out a Survivor Series team.

 

[strummer]

Steve Austin pitched being Hogan's buddy in 94/95 and Bischoff basically laughed at him.

Renegade and Dave Sullivan.

Sauce?

 

[strummer]

Bischoff said it on his podcast that Austin pitched being Hogan's brother or cousin and they'd be a tag team

 

[Valeyard]

Renegade and Evad had no life outside of Hogan, though. Someone like Hillbilly Jim or Koko could go off and do shit by themselves and be over without him. Evad was comically offensive and and DDP killed his rabbit, two things that should totally lead to reevaluation but he sucked so much they don't.

Sounds like a sack of shit then as Eric would have been crowing about it since 98 if it were true.

 

[Valeyard]

Austin should've been kayfabe Nick.

Peg Bundy would make a good heel valet

Nastyville is the seat of Wanker County.

That's even more odd in retrospect now that Kevin has said he wasn't really a wrestling fan before he started training.

Stan Hansen hits Paul E with an unexpected verbal jab.

The Gambler is NOT dead. Well not the one we know. Thank God. There was a death hoax going around Twitter. Some ‘80s indie guy who also happened to use the gimmick/name The Gambler died and everyone thought it was the WCW C/D Show legend.


Me and @BruiserBrody would probably go through with our suicide pact if we lost Iron Sheik and The Gambler in the same day.

Where's Bobby Blaze?

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Put a book out 5-10 years ago and I am fairly certain is active on Twitter.

(Checking)

He is!

 

[Valeyard]

What about Mark Starr?

 

[Cackling Co Pilot Kamala]

Now he is dead.

 

[Valeyard]

Oh really? I knew Joey Maggs was.

Heaven need a (Chris) champion('s) brother.

Where Chad Fortune at?

Where Chad Fortune at?

Chad Fortune is a Monster Truck Driver now. He competes in competitions all over the U.S.

WCW @ Manchester, England – Evening News Arena – March 12, 2000 (16,318; sell out)
Norman Smiley defeated Brian Knobbs
The Wall defeated David Flair
WCW TV Champion Jim Duggan defeated Fit Finlay
Curt Hennig & Vampiro defeated Ric Flair & Lex Luger
Terry Funk defeated Dustin Rhodes
Booker T defeated WCW US Champion Jeff Jarrett via disqualification
WCW Tag Team Champions Big Vito & Johnny the Bull defeated Ron & Don Harris

Maybe Tony's Wembley number for AEW is really not impressive given what this drew.

Duggan/Finlay intrigues me.

 

[alfdogg]

Curt Hennig & Vampiro is like some Battlebowl shit

 

[Valeyard]

Duggan/Finlay is five years too late for a hidden gem but I'm slightly curious.

Team Package working midcard to the Harris brothers is everything wrong with WCW.
