Commentary note that Steamboat is obviously looking to get a solid warmup before Bash at the Beach and his United States championship match, while a win here could put Armstrong on the map as the title rankings go. The crowd are pumped for it, and they get a good pop when "The Dragon" flies with a huge crossbody that puts young Brian down for the three count. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B-</div> Steamboat, sportsman he is, tries to catch up to Brian on his way back to the dressing room in order to shake his hand, but from off to the side he gets smashed down! <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/SteveAustin.jpg</div> It's "Stunning" Steve!

Badd (challenger)</div> The announcers talk again about what happened last Thursday at the Clash of the Champions, where Johnny B. Badd was pinned by Steve Austin after Austin used a foreign object, but referee Randy Anderson came out and called him on it and counted a three when Badd rolled Austin up. The standing call is that Badd won by disqualification. This match nearly goes to the TV title's time limit, with the noble Regal trading holds and counterholds against Badd's boxing background. Badd rallies toward the end, but when he goes up the ropes for the ten punch countdown he gets distracted by Sir William outside! Regal catches his breath and rolls Badd up to get the three count. [centerRating: C[/center] We're backstage where Brian Armstrong, somewhat distraught after his loss earlier, is talking to brother Brad. Brad tells him it was a good match, he shouldn't feel bad about it, but Brian is being inconsolable. But wait, what's that? In the background; it's STING! <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/Sting.jpg</div> Sting is here at the Pyramid! Tony and Dusty both claim having no knowledge that he was to be here tonight, he's not scheduled to have appeared. They figure the former International World champion must want to have business with Ric Flair and Sensuous Sherri after their actions the past week. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/BobbyEaton.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/SteveKeirn.jpg vs. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/ArnAnderson.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/DustinRhodes.jpg Bad Attitude vs. "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson & "The Natural" Dustin Rhodes</div> A splendid old school tag team match between a bunch of old school tag team artists. This being only the second match that Arn and Dustin have been teaming together, Eaton and Keirn use their experience to isolate Arn. Psychology noted by Dusty: Anderson is the far more decorated tag team wrestler, and far less hot-headed than Dustin, so when Eaton goads him, Dustin runs in the ring and costs them an advantage. Everything from referee placement to luring Rhodes into the ring get used, as "Double A" gets punished with the ring cut off. Arn gets a lucky break when Keirn and Eaton mistime a double backdrop, leading to Anderson hitting them both with stereo clotheslines! Arn makes the hot tag and Dustin is all over them with punches and bionic elbows! Rhodes takes Bobby out with a bulldog as Arn spins Keirn around and spikes him with a DDT for the victory. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C+</div> After the match, Dustin and Arn stop by the announce table and get a microphone. They talk about how no matter how bad Bad Attitude want to be, they couldn't beat an Anderson and a Rhodes together! And that's exactly what the Stud Stable are going to find out come Bash at the Beach. But some unwelcome visitors spoil the good times. <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/TerryFunk.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/JimmyGolden.jpg</div> Terry Funk and Bunkhouse Buck aren't too excited to be getting run down by the two new companions. They come out looking ready to fight, and they don't waste time at it; no words are even exchanged as punches fly between the four men! Security finally make their way out and pull them all apart, as Dusty says he'd love to get in there himself if he wasn't busy! <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C+</div> <div style="text-align:center;"><div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/HulkHogan.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWs/JimmyHart.jpg</div> Now it's time for what everyone has been so excited for, as "American Made" starts pumping out over the arena and five-time World champion Hulk Hogan makes his way out to the ring! Flanked by manager Jimmy Hart, Hogan plays to the crowd, though WCW's shift away from taping everything at Disney/MGM seems to have hurt his cred, as these paying crowds aren't completely eating out of his hands. Still, the pop is louder than not, and "The Hulkster" makes his way to the ring. He gets on the microphone and tells of how excited he is to be here in front of all the Hulkamaniacs from the WCW side of the fence! He says how he's been backstage all night training with his good friend Mr. T, getting ready for his debut match at Bash at the Beach. Hogan says he himself doesn't care when it is, because he's been ready to get back in the ring ever since he left it! And he REALLY can't wait until the Bash when he can get his hands on one "Nature Boy" Ric Flair! But wait, what's that? Hogan has only just mentioned the name of Flair, when suddenly.... <div style="text-align:center;">COWBELL!!!!! <iframe width="560" height="315" src="<a href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/I1opBep9wZs?rel=0" rel="external nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/embed/I1opBep9wZs?rel=0"</a> frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> IT'S STING! Wearing street clothes and facepaint, Sting comes out from the back, and the crowd goes wild for him! Sting comes out and acknowledges them with a primal scream of "OWWWWW!" Hogan stops and looks his way, not knowing whether to expect a fight or not from WCW's hometown hero! He talks to Jimmy Hart, as Sting climbs into the ring and comes face to face with "The Hulkster". Sting gets a microphone of his own, and he starts off by saying that he is PUMPED to be standing in The Pyramid Arena right now in front of all his "Little Stingers" which prompts a huge cheer that booms all through the sold out crowd! Sting says that he's not all that happy to have seen Ric Flair walking around with the gold, but he's glad to say that he's caught wind that "Sensual" Sherri is still going to be barred from the arena, and may be indefinitely suspended from World Championship Wrestling! And that leaves only one thing left to discuss, and at that the tension bristles through the crowd as Sting turns his attention to the man standing across the ring from him! The former champion stands face to face with Hogan. Sting says that Hogan claims being a five-time World champion, and he has respect for that, but says that with all due respect, Hulk needs to understand, "you ain't in Kansas no more, even if you did bring your little Toto along!" pointing at Hart! Sting says that he is also a five-time champion (once in the NWA, twice in WCW, and two International World title reigns) and that he'd love to make that six sooner rather than later! However, he also wants to say that he's happy to see Hogan in WCW now, because it means they've entered a new era, an era where the best get ahead, because now they have all of the best in one place! And with that, he extends his hand and on behalf of WCW, offers his welcome to Hulk Hogan! Sting also says that he knows Ric Flair almost as much as he knows himself, and that Flair can be a tricky one, "Slick Ric" to be sure, and in order to make sure the same thing doesn't happen to Hulk as what did himself at Clash of the Champions, he will gladly help out the Hulkster with any advice he wants! The crowd let a loud cheer at the idea of the two fan favorites working together, as Hogan accepts the handshake and is generally happy that Sting has given his blessing to Hulk challenging for the top prize in the industry. The two play to the crowd and Schiavone calls this meeting between Hogan and Sting a huge moment in the history of the sport of pro wrestling, presented right here to you on WCW Saturday Night, as we go to a commercial break. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B+</div> http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/BrianPillman.jpg vs. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/TheGambler.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"> Flyin' Brian vs. The Gambler</div> How do you follow one of the biggest moments in the history of wrestling? With a squash match! The Gambler is game, but Brian is just too much for him as he quickly takes over completely and picks Gambler apart with fast strikes and holds, before going airborne with the Air Pillman and putting a merciful end to this one. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: D+ http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/RicFlair.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWs/GeneOkerlund.jpg</div> We head backstage to "Mean" Gene Okerlund, who says he has a very special guest on hand right now, one who is not happy to say the least! Wearing his finest suit and carrying the WCW World Heavyweight championship, "Nature Boy" Ric Flair paces his way into the shot. Flair is noticeably without "Sensuous" Sherri tonight. Gene prompts Flair, asking him that after we heard about how Hulk Hogan is training with his megastar friend Mr. T, and now it appears Sting is willing to help Hogan as well, how is Flair getting ready for the big match at the Bash? Flair scoffs, saying that he's preparing the only ways he knows how, the two-sided workout plan he's had for years; "keep sharp in the ring by actually WRESTLING rather than just hanging around with buddies outside the ring, and keep cardio up with your momma after the show!" Flair says that he has friends too, and they're doing what they can to make sure Hogan does NOT leave Orlando with HIS World title. He's in a foul mood since he found out his friend Sherri is possibly going to be banned from WCW, and he plans to take his anger out on The Guardian Angel tonight. Flair then leaves one final word, to Sting; "Watch who you're throwing your support behind; sometimes, you really should keep your enemies closer." <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C+</div> We're at commentary, talking about what we've seen tonight, when Tony says he's just gotten word of a commotion backstage. A camera gets there to find a lot of yelling and ruckus, and we focus to see that The Guardian Angel and Big Van Vader have found one another backstage! http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/GuardianAngel.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/Vader.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"></div> The two bulls are locking horns, and they don't care what gets in their way! One voice finally gets them apart, under threat of suspension if they don't stop this right now, that being the acting WCW Commissioner Nick Bockwinkel! http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/NickBockwinkel.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"></div> Nick tells them that if they need to settle this so badly, he'll sign them a match for Bash at the Beach! Both of them seem pleased about it, and Nick forces Angel to go away to get ready for his match later as Harley Race tries to pull Vader away, saying "Now isn't the time!". <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/BrianPillman.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/CactusJack.jpg</div> Backstage in the dressing room now, Flyin' Brian is there alongside Cactus Jack. Brian is literally beaming, as he talks to Jack while Jack is getting ready for his match. Brian says how he can't wait to get a chance to go meet Hulk Hogan, as he's been a huge fan of the Hulkster for a long time now. Cactus says he understands how that is, getting to meet someone who you look up to, and Brian is just so excited. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B- http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWWorldTag.jpg http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/KevinSullivan.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/CactusJack.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWs/DaveSullivan.jpg vs. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/StevieRay.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/BookerT.jpg WCW World Tag Team championships Kevin Sullivan and Cactus Jack (champions) with Dave Sullivan vs. Harlem Heat (challengers)</div> You know how I said in the Arn/Dustin vs Bad Attitude match that it was a splendid old school tag match? Well, this one is nothing like that, as these four big brawlers, some of the toughest men in the WCW locker room, simply tear into one another from the opening bell. It's not pretty whatsoever as these guys literally rip and tear at one another, until finally the momentum of the match begins to swing toward the champions after Cactus hits an unsuspecting Heat on the floor with an upside down body attack! He rolls Booker into the ring and looks ready to plant him with a double-arm DDT, when out of the crowd come Pretty Wonderful! http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/PaulOrndorff.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/PaulRoma.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"></div> Orndorff and Roma hit fast from behind and leave Jack down, and right in front of the referee! Stevie Ray is disappointed when he finds the result, that because of the attack, Harlem Heat have been disqualified, and Sullivan and Jack retain their championships. But will the result be the same when Pretty Wonderful challenge them at Bash at the Beach? <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C-</div> For the second time tonight, a fact noted by Tony Schiavone, he says that there's been something in the backstage that we need to go to. We go to find Jesse "The Body" Ventura in the parking lot, and he's frantically calling for help as other wrestlers are coming to the call, and Tony says he can't really see what's happening. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/JesseVentura.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"></div> When Ventura sees the cameras he gets up and says how it looks like a horror film out here, he was walking to his car when he found Sting prone in the lot! http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/Sting.jpg<div style="text-align:center;"></div> He didn't see anything else, only found Sting down and out. Ventura looks worried, as we go to a commercial break. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B- http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/SteveAustin.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWs/GeneOkerlund.jpg</div> When we come back, despite being rattled, Tony throws it to "Mean" Gene again, as he is standing by with the United States champion "Stunning" Steve Austin. Gene says that Austin's attack earlier tonight was deplorable, and Steve just laughs. He tells Okerlund to shut his mouth, and give the champion some credit; Steamboat wanted to get a workout in order to stay ahead of Austin before their match, so Stunning Steve knocked him back down a peg or two. He says that if Steamboat wants to think he has a chance, Austin will always be right there to make sure he knows better! There is only one U.S. champ, and that's all there is to it; that's why it's emblazoned right on the tights of Stunning Steve! <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B-</div> http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/Sting.jpg</div> Back out to the parking lot, and we see that an ambulence has arrived and the paramedics are getting Sting loaded on a stretcher. Jesse Ventura is still there, and a host of other wrestlers have gathered around as well, as commentary talk over this footage. Tony says that he isn't going to start pointing any fingers, but there's one man who he, and Dusty first-hand, know is good for attacking his enemies in the parking lot! Rhodes says that he also isn't gonna name any names right off, but he agrees wholeheartedly with Tony. Unfortunately, we may have to wait to hear from Sting himself as to the person who attacked him, if even he knows who it was! <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C+ http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/RicFlair.jpg vs. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/GuardianAngel.jpg Ric Flair vs. The Guardian Angel</div> Our main event of the evening may not be for Flair's prestigious championship, but The Angel gives him everything he's got, knowing that a win can catapault him to the top in a hurry. After a brief feeling out process, Angel begins throwing huge bombs at the champion, forcing him to escape to the outside in order to cool the big man down! Flair uses his extensive knowledge and psychology to lure Angel into an ill-fated charge that only finds turnbuckle, and we go to school. Kneedrops, kicks to the knee, leg locks, and general punishment upon the knees of the Angel are the order of the day, and "The Nature Boy" gets his strut on with confidence. Flair gets a little TOO overconfident during a chinlock, yelling "Tell Hogan! Tell Hogan what's waiting for him!" and it seems like knowing that Flair is punishing him for that purpose energizes the former prison guard, and he powers up, sending Flair into the ropes and catching him with a leaping clothesline! The Guardian Angel is getting back into this, and he plants Flair with a huge swinging side slam! Angel looks ready to get the win, when Vader comes out and jumps on the ring apron, ready to continue their brawl from earlier! <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/Vader.jpg</div> Angel gets caught off-guard, and that proves to be his fatal mistake as when he goes after the mammoth beast, it gives Flair a chance to recover. When Guardian Angel goes to pin Flair, "Slick Ric" is able to put a finger in his eye, then ball him up in a small package to get the three count, much to the crowd's displeasure! <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: B</div> It doesn't look over yet by a long shot, as now that the match is over Vader is free to climb into the ring. He takes Angel out from behind with a brutal shot to the back of his neck, and he begins putting the boots to his Bash at the Beach opponent. Flair is gleeful to join in, and the two are doing a number on him that could put him out until long after Bash! Flair starts again, getting down in The Angel's face and screaming "This is for Hogan! It's all because of Hogan! You go back and you tell him, this is WCW!", but the crowd goes crazy as they all find that The Angel isn't going to have to deliver any message; the sound of "American Made" means Flair can deliver the message face to face! <div style="text-align:center;">http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/HulkHogan.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/MrT.jpg</div> Dusty screams as well in glee as Hulk Hogan makes his way out, but not alone; he has backup! Mr. T comes out right at the Hulkster's side, and the two help drive off the villains, with Mr. T in particular getting in a good shot on Vader! Harley again is left to try and pull his charge away, as Vader is hot! He's ready to get in the ring and tear all three of them down, but Race is able to pull him away. <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: C+ http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/HulkHogan.jpghttp://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/RicFlair.jpg</div> After getting The Guardian Angel tended to, Mr. T helping the big man from Cobb County to the back, Hulk Hogan gets a microphone and he addresses Ric Flair specifically. He says that he was watching from the back, and if Flair is so bent on sending him a message, then why not get in the ring right now and try it! The crowd roars its approval, and Flair stands at ringside screaming and kicking the guardrail as Hogan continues to goad him! Once Hogan insults Flair's manhood, saying maybe he's too afraid to do this until it's a sanctioned match, Flair instantly slides into the ring and the fight is on! Rights and lefts are flying; first Hogan has the edge by sending Flair into the corner with some big rights, then Flair gets the edge by hitting a flurry of punches and chops to the chest and stomach. The crowd are rocking with every blow that either man lands, and their want to see these two go at one another is only intensified when a host of officials and security come out to try and break the two up! These two are the biggest names in our sport, and they go at it one-on-one in just two weeks! <div style="text-align:center;">Rating: A</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35691" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">WCW Main Event taping Announcers: Gordon Solie and Eric Bischoff Rating: C+</div> The commentators talk throughout the night about the attack on Sting, but say that WCW Commissioner Nick Bockwinkel refuses to show any footage even if they were allowed to on this show.

Regal then goes on to say that this match was with a far better, far more deserving opponent than he'd had on Saturday Night, as "Johnathan Badd" is simply not on his level, personally or professionally. As he continues to run down Badd, the crowd cheers as Badd comes out and plants Regal with the Diss that Don't Miss, leaving the TV champ down and out! (C+)</div></blockquote>

WCW '94: War of the Thrones

http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/WCWlogo.jpg The wrestling world is in a state of flux. Old talents out, new talents in, all the time. What used to work, sometimes no longer does. The crowds start to catch on to the fresh new thing, but if they don't get what they want, they don't stick around. This is where we enter World Championship Wrestling. They have just gotten done hiring the biggest name in all sports-entertainment, "The Immortal" Hulk Hogan. All systems appear to be a go, as WCW are set to produce the match that the World Wrestling Federation never got to pull the trigger on: Hulk Hogan against "Nature Boy" Ric Flair. The entire wrestling world is skeptical over what can happen now, when two of the biggest egos collide at Bash at the Beach. However, these aren't the only egos being dealt with. A lot of wrestlers can be known to get a big head once they feel they deserve something. There are a lot of them in WCW itself, either massive egos or people simply becoming complacent with their spot in the company. Everyone needs to be kept in check once in awhile, even WCW's own Executive Vice President, Eric Bischoff. Eric has a lot of innovative ideas. There are a lot of people who need pushed, there are a lot who need brought out of their own discomfort zone. A lot of those ideas which Eric is proposing requires the boys to follow the script, without question, in order to get to the big picture. Even Ted Turner himself is a little afraid of finding what will happen when heads butt backstage, and so he's gotten a little insurance policy that will make sure the locker room of his little cash cow project will remain harmonious. Mr. Turner is an old school 'rasslin fan through and through, yet he likes the new ideas that Bischoff wants to introduce. But someone needs to make sure cool heads will always prevail. That's why we introduce this man. http://i1325.photobucket.com/albums/u628/beejus1/WCW-94/HarleyRace.jpg "Handsome" Harley Race. Long known as one of wrestling's toughest men. Now appointed to the unofficial title of "locker room leader," his role is to make sure that all things which the office wants, happens. The locker room is full of prima donnas. From the little fish such as Steven Regal and Marcus Bagwell, up the ladder to the Flairs and Hogans, and even Bischoff himself, "The Fear of Harley" is to keep them in line. Harley will be on his toes, as soon there will be the start of a new eon in World Championship Wrestling, and perhaps even in all of wrestling itself.
