Send that to Hogan. It's almost his worst fear.

Barry Horowitz had TWO WCW runs, believe it or not. A short one in 1990 then he was there from 1998 to 2000. I always thought second jump was smart. WWF stopped doing squash matches so he hopped on the WCW gravy train.

Of course, Best Barry Horowitz WCW moment was him patting himself on the back then turning around and getting speared by Goldberg.

"Who's Virgil? Hey did anyone ever tell you that you look like that wrestler, I think his name was Curly Bill? I loved that guy!"

FWIW, JR also mentioned in his blog after MJ’s death in ‘09 that The Jackson Brothers were huge wrestling fans and would attend LA area shows in incognito. Only (mildly) direct evidence I have of Michael being a wrestling fan is Tiny Lister being in the music video for “Remember The Time”.

Jackson's favorite workers were Mel Phillips' ring boys

(humming Virgil's theme)

If anyone tells you that Virgil wasn't a legitimately over midcard guy in '91 and even into some of '92, they're lying. Unfortunately, everyone collectively realized he sucked right around the time that the product declined and they could have used him to step up. So the product and his career were in free fal at same time! Bad times for ol' Virg.

I wish I could find that mock WWF Magazine cover from '93-'94.
