rvdjrv2002 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Four Corners OF Chaos: WCW It was Monday during the first week of January when the news finally hit the wire. I had always followed WCW and after the Lawsuit and roster shakeups I was the second runner up for the big job in WCW. But sadly I fell just a little bit short I was okay with it I tried and knew that in wrestling the never fully closes. So when I got the call from Ted Turner in the end of December I thought it was a joke. It was 11:00pm local I was in England visiting family for the new year when my aunt told me there was a man on the phone. I asked who it was and she said it was Ted Turner I couldn’t fathom the thought that it was actually him I just assumed it was one of the many wrestling writers I knew form back home so I went and took the phone and this is what I heard. Ted: Howdy there I’mma lookin fer Jason Danielson. We seem to have an opening here in WCW and Ia wondered if he would be interested in appliying. Jason: Really exactly what position would that be. Ted: Wella we seem to have an opening for the Head Booker spot. Jason: But you only just hired a new booker after the lawsuit. Ted: Well im afraid that our booker just isn’t going out and we’ve decided to go in a new direction and we think you are the right man to lead that direction. Still not believing it was really Ted Turner I said the following and it changed my life forever. Jason: Well I’ll tell you what Mr. Turner why don’t you go and fax me the contract at home and when I return from holiday tomorrow night I’ll sign it and send it back. Ted: Well all right then I’ll have Sophie fax it to you and you can start at the first Nitro of the New Year. With that we hung and I didn’t think of it again until I got home and found a twenty page contract sitting aon my fax machine. I immediately took the contract to my lawyer and had him read it. He said it was all legit and I immediately signed it and returned it. I had very little time to get to the arena which just so happened to be in my home town and come up with a new direction for the company. Unfortuantly that first night did not go how I expected it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, you won't get as high an attendance in areas where your popularity is low... but as long as the workers you use on your shows there have high popularity in those same areas, you'll get good grades. At least that's my impression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby: God I hope not the Ham - N - Egger doesn’t even deserve to be in a contest with the King Jerry Lawler. Gorilla:Will you quit. Jerry Lawler makes his entrance to smattering of applause but mostly boos from the sellout crowd. Shawn Michaels music begins to play. He is introduced but doesnt make his way to the ring. Jerry Lawler looks impressed thinking he wont have to fight to become number 1 contender. The ring announcer tries again. Still no response. Gorilla Monsoon takes off his headset and enters the ring. He grabs the mic and begins to speak. Gorilla: On behalf of the championship committee I hate to do this but if Shawn Michaels does not come down to the ring by the count of 10 he will forfeit the match and Jerry Lawler will be named the number 1 contender. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Still no sign of Shawn Michaels the count begins to get slower as GOrilla doesnt want to see the match end this way. 6 7 8 Still nothing 9 Just as Gorilla begins to count 10 the music of Shawn Michaels begins to play as Shawn Michaels slowly begins to hobble his way to the ring. Jerry Lawler begins to get very upset and begins berating Gorilla for slowing the count. Well Lawler is lambasting Gorilla HBK makes his way into the ring. Before Lawler can even turn around the bell is rung Lawler turns around and is handidly hit with the Sweet Chin Music. Michaels falls onto Lawler to get the pinfall victory before the match can really even begin. Shawn Michaels def Jerry Lawler to be named number 1 contender. B- Gorilla returns to the booth just the ref finishes the 3 count. Gorilla: Can you believe it Shawn Michaels barely makes it to the ring. IT took him longer to reach the ring then it did to defeat the so called King Jerry Lawler. Bobby: Are you kidding me Gorilla if you hadn’t slowed down your count Lawler would have won before the gimp HBK could even make it to the ring. If it was Lawler who was hurt and couldn’t make it to the ring you never would have slowed the count. Gorilla: YOu are kidding I was honest and impartial and would and will do the same thing every time the situation arrises. Bobby: You keep thinking that Gorilla I know you better than that.

Tiger Mask has a strong showing in WCW including being the first TV champ since the roster shake-up. Unfortunately for the other competitors in the contest Jushin Liger will not have to put the Cruiserweight Title on the line as both Shane Douglas and The Black Scorpion didn’t qualify for the Cruiserweight limit. Steve Austin will finally get his hands on Brian Pillman as they will go 1- on - 1 the championship committee has decided the special guest referee will be Big Bubba Rogers as he has crossed paths with both men in the past.

Won by Lex Luger The final 4 were Lex Luger, Rick Rude, The Great Nita and Dean Malenko. The four men squared of each in their own corner, Rude and Luger appeared to form an alliance to win the match as they both charged a t Malenko and Nita. The heels were quick to gain the upper hand as they were both using underhanded tactics to keep the match in their favor all hope appeared lost as Nita was quickly eliminated after Rude hit him with a low blow and tossed him over the top rope. The same fate appeared to get Nita as Luger tossed him over the top rope however Nita held on and proceeded to skin the cat and get himself up in the ring as Luger turned around ans saw Nita coming back over the top both men charged however Nita wrapped his legs around Rude’s head and tossed him over the top rope. The match appeared to be coming back to Nita’s favor however Luger charged Nita and clotheslined him back over the top and hit the floor giving Luger the win and a future Title shot. After the battle royal Bobby Heenan and Gorilla Monsoon were introduced to a round of applause as they made there way to the announce booth as they settle for the ppv ahead the turner-tron lights up with the ppv opening intro. <iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/6D9vAItORgE" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> As we return from the sultry tones of Guns N Roses we join the announce team at the booth ringside. Gorilla: Wow Bobby have we got a great PPV in store for all for all our fans both here live and all across the globe wherever WCW PPV’s are available. Heenan: Ya it’s just too bad most of our fans live in Trailer Parks and cant afford PPV. Gorilla: Will you stop. Now that your in control lets run down the card for tonight's PPV. We have several title matches on the card including The Rock n Roll Express will defend there belts against Jimmy Hart’s Mystery team. I wonder who the mouth of the south is bringing. Heenan: Well I got a guy and he promises me that these guys will destroy the competition here in WCW. Gorilla: Wait you know who Hart is bringing and your your not yelling it from the rooftops. Heenan: Ive course not Monsoon I have journalistic integrity Gorilla: Please you cant even spell integrity let alone understand its meaning. But that's not all we also have Steve Austin finally going one on one with former tag team partner Brian Pillman and the third man in the ring the referee will be Big Bubba Rogers. Chris Benoit looks to retain the US Championship as he defends against former TV champion Tiger Mask.

WE also have The Undertaker bringing in a tag team partner from the orient to team with him against Abdullah The Butcher and Sabu of The Era of Evil and if Undertaker and his partner can win Paul Bearer has promised to answer all The Undertakers questions. Finally in tonight's Main Event we have The Macho King Randy Savage defending the World Heavyweight Title against The Heartbreak Kid Shawn Michaels in what is bound to be dozy. Heenan: You got that I cant wait to see Randy Savage keep his belt when he beats the Choke Broke Kid. And don’t you dare forget that the King Jerry LAwler will be in action when destroys that lump Marty Jannetty. Gorilla: Don’t under estimate Jannetty he has a fire and passion that few can match. Heenan: I know a few it’s just too bad they never leave the bar. Gorilla: Will you quit. OK Bobby I think we’ve all had enough of you so lets send it up to David Penzer Penzer: The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 30 minute time limit allow me to introduce the special guest referee for the bout from Cobb County Georgia, Big Bubba Rogers. Introducing first from Cincinnati Ohio he stands 6 feet tall he weighs in at 226 pounds Flyin’ Brian Pillman. And his opponent he hails from Victoria Texas, He stands 6 feet 2 inches tall he weighs in at 252 pounds Stunning Steve Austin. Brian Pillman def Steve Austin C- The first 20 minutes of the match saw great action and great crowd reaction. The match was fought under very lenient rules as Big Bubba gave both men enough leeway to pretty much do whatever they felt like doing. The match was finally swinging in Austins after the last 10 minutes of Pillman dominating the match through the use of underhanded tactics including but not limited to low-blows, chairs and a heinous assault with the ring bell. The swing occurred when Pillman went up to snap Austins ankle he slipped the chair and got Pillman with a boot in the face. Austin got up with the momentum on his side he caught Pillman with the Thesz Press as Pillman got up Austin was readying for the stunner. Gorilla:Pillman gets up and there’s a kick right in the breadbasket Austin is all set up there it is Stunner Stunner Stunner!!!!! Austin hooks the leg wait a minute what is Bib Bubba doing on the ground. Heenan: Why Monsoon hes tieing his shoe we cant have referees with untied shoelaces now can we. Gorilla: Pillman is out cold and Big Bubba is tieing his dang shoe this is a travesty. On that note Austin got up off his pin went over to grab Big Bubba by his shirt collar and begin berating him for not making the count. Bubba just stood up stared him right him in the face and knocked him out with a big left hand. After he hits Austin he goes over to Pillman who is only beginning to wake up after the stunner grabs him pulls him over to Austin and lays him over Austin for the 1-2-3. Gorilla: What kind of miscarriage of justice have we just witnessed. Heenan: Miscarriage are you kidding me if I was tieing my shoe and someone came over and started poking at me I would knock him out too. The camera cuts back to the ring where we see Big Bubba walk back to Pillman he appears to be upset but instead he extends a hand for Pillman to get up after both men are standing they proceed to lay the boots to Austin as the camera cuts to a a video to bring us to the next match. Chris Benoit def Tiger Mask In defence of his United States Championship C+ Penzer: The following contest is scheduled for a one fall with a 45 minute time limit and it is for the WCW United States Championship.

He is the current reigning and defending WCW Unites States Champion. He stands 5ft 11inches tall he weighs in at 220 pounds hailing from Edmonton Alberta Canada The Crippler Chris Benoit. The match goes on for 20mins before either man truly gets the upper hand. after exchanging holds and brawling all around the ringside area including a jaunt to the announce booth were Benoit tried to Powerbomb Tiger through the table before he reversed and gave Benoit a backbody drop all the way to the concrete floor below. After both men had returned to the ring after almost being counted out the match appeared to be in Tiger’s favor. As Tiger went up for the Tiger Driver Jimmy Hart ascended to the apron. AS Tiger let Benoit fall to the canvas Magnum came racing around the ring to pull Jimmy of the apron before spinning him around to receive a big left hand to the roar of the crowd. As tiger went to return to his position to give Benoit the Tiger Bomb this time he got him up in the air as in m,id air Benoit managed to get a hold on Tiger’s arm and dropped him down into the Crippler Crossface Tiger had no choice to tap as he was caught in dead center ring. As Benoit is getting his championship and picking Jimmy Hart up he brings Jimmy to the Locker Room draped over his shoulder. The camera cuts to the WCW interview stage as we hear the familiar strains of Deep Purple’s Perfect Strangers. Out from the locker room comes Shane Douglas strutting like he is the man in WCW. Douglas: All of you miserable Kentucky mountain side hillbillies have never seen a specimen like the Franchise. And you want to know something the WCW locker room has never seen anyone quite like me. I look around the locker room and do you know what i see a bunch of wannabes with a few exception I see people like Chris Benoit and Brian Pillman and i see the future of wrestling then I look and see the has beens like the Junkyard Dog and Mil Mascaras and I wonder where all the talent went and you know what i realize they all ran scared when The Franchise joined WCW the chumps like The Nature Boy Dick i mean Ric Flair and realize that I single handidly chased him his dingle-berry Arn Anderson all the way to that Bush League up north and now I am the man in WCW and in time I will bring about a REVOLUTION in WCW and I will one day proudly wear the same title that true legends like Ricky Steamboat and Harley Race and Jack Brisco all held and bring some honour back to WCW.

The match went for 20 mins before a winner was declared. The match saw intense action as all four men traded holds each man tried to end the match early by going for finishers and attempting to score the pinfall whenever possible. At around the 19 minute mark Scorpion ad Scorpion began to brawl all around the ring even trying to unmask the other competitor the referee tried to regain control of the two men on the outside before realizing all attempts to control the two warriors was futile he finally threw up a hand signal and officials raced from the back to break the two apart however there attempts were also futile as every time they got them apart they would find a way to get to each other finally brawling all the way to the curtain and disappearing from sight for the remainder of the match. Back inside the ring both men began to stir after a very big superplex by Liger left both men down for the duration of the Scorpion-Parka encounter. As both men got up Liger was first to his feet and gave Douglas a boot to the gut before picking him up for the LigerBomb he had him up and began his running start to finish the match however Douglas had a hold of the top rope and refused to let go and dropped out the back as Liger moved forward Liger realizing Douglas was no longer there turned around right as Douglas thrust his foot out for a kick right in Ligers Gut Douglas picked him for the Pittsburgh Plunge and dropped him down he bridged into the pin and the ref goes down for the count 1-2-3. Now we go back to a video recapping the Jerry LAwler vs Shawn Michaels from last night on Nitro. Gorilla: Never before in my life have I seen someone as talented as Lawler be so easily defeated by anyone in such a quick fashion. Heenan: And It’s All you fault Monsoon if you'd just have counted to 10 like you were supposed to. The match never would have happened and it would be LAwler in the Main Event tonight not the Chumpbreak Kid. Gorilla: Dont you start on me Bobby or ill do to you what everyone of the fans has wanted me to do to you for years. Heenan: Admit I’m the best wrestling announcer ever and the sole host of Monday Nitro. Gorilla: Will you quit. Lets send it back to David Penzer. Marty Jannetty def Jerry Lawler E Penzer: Introducing first he hails from Columbus, Georgia he stands 5 feet 11inches and weighs in at 226 pounds Marty Jannetty!!! And his opponent hailing from Memphis Tennessee he stands 6 feet tall and weighs 243 pounds He is the self proclaimed King Of Wrestling Jerry The King Lawler. The match went about 5 mins before a winner was declared. The match was almost entirely Lawler pounding on Jannetty to the mercy of the referee. Finally LAwler was warned for using an open fist as he picked up JAnnetty to mercifully hit a piledriver to finish the match when he tucked Jannetty between his legs Jannetty rolled him up in a small package for the victory. Lawler got up fuming as he had been between twice in a row by crazy happenings. He went to take his frustrations out on Jannetty before the referee got in the way and allowed Jannetty to escape with the victory and forced LAwler to leave fuming and boy could you hear him taking out his on anger on every fan and staff member he passed. Gorilla : Can you believe it Bobby two nights two embarassing losses for the King. Maybe now we can call him the court jester. Heenan: Monsoon you take great pleasure in kicking a man when hes down dont’cha Gorilla: Well as a matter of fact with all of the things he said in his career im actually quite enjoying seeing him get his just desserts. Heenan: Wow Monsoon showing your true colours. Gorilla: Lets send it to David Penzer before you get your just desserts. Penzer: The following contest is scheduled for a one fall and it is for the WCW World Tag Team Championship. Introducing first the current reigning and defending Tag Team Champions of the world Ricky Morton and Robert Gibson the Rock And Roll Express. And their opponents being accompanied to the ring by............ Jimmy Hart: You let me take care of the introductions. Introducing the next WCW Tag Team Champions They hail from Nastyville USA Jerry Saggs and Brian Knobbs THE NASTY BOYS!!!!!!!!!! Jimmy Hart introduces the Nasty Boys C- The Nasty Boys def The R’N’R Express to win the tag team championship B- The match saw 15 minutes of back and forth action between the two veteran teams before the Nasty Boys had to resort to their old bag of tricks to win the Tag Team championship. After about the 12 minute mark of the match Saggs and Morton had all but become non-factors in the contest as both men had taken a very nasty tumble off the entrance ramp through two stageside tables. Back in the ring Gibson started to turn the contest back in his favor when Jimmy Hart ascended the apron for the second time this evening however this time he had a plan and it worked like a charm as this time as he climbed up the apron he tossed his megaphone into the corner of the ring opposite where Gibson was. As Gibson hit a high-crossbody on Knobbs he realized he would never get the 3 count with Hart on the apron so his instinct took over and he rushed to Hart however the referee was already in position to get Hart down that he refused to allow Gibson to get his hands on the weasel. As this was going on Knobbs got over to the corner picked up the megaphone and proceeded to waffle Gibson across the back of the head before tossing the megaphone out of the ring as Jimmy Hart saw the hit he got down without hesitation and the referee was able to turn around just in time to count the 1-2-3 for The Nasty Boys to become the new WCW Tag Team Champions. As the Nasty Boys celebrate their victory the camera cuts away to a video package of all the recent developments in the Undertaker vs Paul Bearer and his Era Of Evil culminating with Paul Bearers cryptic message at the gravesite of the Undertakers Parents. As we return we find David Penzer in the ring for the next contest. Penzer : The following contest is a tag team match scheduled for a one fall. Introducing first accompanied to the ring by their manager Paul Bearer, The Madman from The Sudan Abdullah The Butcher and his tag team partner The Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal SABU Together they represent The ERA OF EVIL!!!!!!!!!!! And their opponents first hailing from Death Valley he stands 6 feet 10 inches tall and weighs in tonight at 299 pounds he is THE UNDERTAKER!!!!!!!!! With that the lights go out and the undertakers music begins to play as begins his slow walk to the ring. When he is about half way down the entrance walkway he produces a microphone from under his overcoat. Undertaker: Paul Bearer I promised I would have a Tag Team partner and I do he is a man He represents the orient and comes to us tonight from New Japan Pro Wrestling he is commonly regarded as one of the best wrestlers in the world he is SHINYA HASHIMOTO!!!!!!!!!! Undertaker introduces his mystery partner Shinya Hashimoto D+ The Undertaker and Shinya Hashimoto def Abdullah and Sabu B- A 15 minute match that was intensely stiff and saw all four men hit the other with everything they had and some things we had never seen before including Abdullah coming off the top rope with an elbow drop for a 2 count on the Undertaker. Sabu in his usual guise tried to put Hash through a ringside table however he moonsaulted directly through an empty table potentially injuring his ribs and taking him out of the contest for a few minutes. Inside the ring The Undertaker got back to his feet and began trading huge haymakers with Abdullah who himself was a little slow getting to his feet after coming off the top rope. Once back in Hash through himself right intp the mix by trading Abdullah like a ping pong ball with the Undertaker. Sabu took his time to ascend the top rope and come down with a huge crossbody taking all three men out. Sabu tried to pin both men in turn he got a 2 on hash and taker powered out after a 1 count. As everyone began getting up Paul Bearer got up on the runway and began making a stink to the referee about something or other as this was going on Mike Tyson ran through the crowd and into the ring he went to hit Hash instead he knocked out Sabu. Hash turned around hit Tyson with a spinning wheel kick and then tossed him from the ring. Undertaker took Abdullah up for the tombstone as Hash hit Sabu with the Vertical Drop Brainbuster as both men had their men out the referee turned around and made the academic three count. After the match Bearer grabbed the ringside mic and proceeded to begin to speak. Bearer: O my Undertaker all that seek will come to light however the answers are not what your looking for I promise that soon and forever you will regret the decisions you have made and you will never be able to deal with the consequences. As he finished speaking the lights went out. As the lights came back on Paul Bearer and all of the Members of The Era Of Evil were no where to be seen. Paul Bearer promises The Undertaker will get his answers B- Monsoon: What do you think Bearer meant when he said he wouldnt like the consequences what consequneces could he be talking about. Heenan: I dont know but whenever he says something he usually delivers so I wouldnt want to be in Undertakers shoes. Monsoon: All I can say is I wouldnt want to miss nitro next week. Heenan: You should miss Nitro every week Monsoon so I could be the only host of the show. Monsoon: You better stop because its time for the main event. Penzer: The following contest is your Main Event. It is a one fall contest with no time limit and it is for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.

Savage smelling victory was in his grasp rolled HBK into the ring however Michaels was jarred by his forced entry and as Savage ascended the top rope to finish the match Michaels performed a Kip-Up as it was called by Gorilla. Savage seeing his target on his feet prompted him to come down with another double axe-handle smash however Michaels was able to catch him with a stiff punch in the breadbasket causing Savage to go head over heels to the ground. Michaels feeling the energy of the crowd flowing through his veins sent him rousing into the corner.

Hive Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 Been meaning to ask, what match penalty...poor chemistry? The penalty you get from having the same match more than 3 times within 6 months. Big Al had featured those matchups 3 times already before RVD took over, iirc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hive Posted January 13, 2012 Share Posted January 13, 2012 oh I see...ouch, wondering how Micheals v Savage scored so low Yeah, I personally think the penalty is way too harsh. But eh. I had the same thing on one of my first guest booked AWA shows, where Bret Hart vs. Terry Funk tanked completely. In spite of them having great chemistry and being the holders of the 1995 MOTY.

rvdjrv2002 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 WCW Main Event Week 4 Taped Monday aired Saturday. Manley Fieldhouse In Syracuse New York Tri-State USA 10,000 The pre show saw two matches Dr Wagner Jr. def Blitzkrieg D- Octagon def Super Crazy and Tracy Smothers in a three way dance D- The Black Scorpion def Jushin Liger in a non title contest B- This contest was extremely fast paced contest between the two lighter wrestlers. The finish came when Liger went for the Ligerbomb however Scorpion rolled out the backdoor and applied the Scorpion Deathlock for the tap out victory. Monsoon: The action you are about to witness was taped this past Tuesday at the clash of the champions. After their match in which they lost the tag belts Morton and Gibson came back through the curtain as they proceeded past the lookout they were jumped by two men in jumpsuits looking like staff however after they had laid out both members of the express they took off their jumpsuits and revealed that they were in fact The Warlord and The Barbarian The Powers of Pain. They continued to destroy both men until they lay motionless on the backstage floor. They walked off laughing saying that was for the Master. Powers of Pain debut to attack The R’N’R Express C The Pittbulls def Demolition C The match was intense as all four gave it their all however the cagey veterans were not able to handle the speed and power of the younger Pittbulls. The match was won when The Pittbulls hit Ax with the Superbomb. After the match Shane Douglas came out and cut almost the exact same promo as he did at the PPV except this time he ran down the state of the cruiserweight division especially the current cruiserweight champion Jushin Liger. Shane Douglas Promo B+ In The main event of the evening Lex Luger def Steve Austin B- A twenty minute match that saw both men give it their all. Neither man refused to let the other gain any ground however that would not do as at the 17 minute mark Steve Austin seemed on the verge of pulling an upset on the star however Luger had other ideas as he also the opportunity to gain the upper hand and being the veteran that he is he decided to resort to a trick he learned many years ago and went right for the low blow as Austin was trying to regain his composure Luger had just enough time to get him up in the torture rack as Austin was in dead center ring he had no choice but to tap out and award the match to Lex Luger.

rvdjrv2002 Posted January 19, 2012 Author Share Posted January 19, 2012 http://i1189.photobucket.com/albums/z436/rvdjrv2012/EWR_net5.jpg The month of January saw many new changes in the WCW locker room many new faces were brought into the company here is a list of all confirmed names that signed contracts during the month of January The Nasty Boys, OCtagon, The Warlord, Pittbulls, Gedo & Jado, Ray Gonzalez, The Public Enemy, Dr. Wagner Jr., Louie Spicoli, bOrNe AgAiN, Tracy Smothers, Blitzkreig, Super Crazy, The Bushwhackers, Masato Tanaka, The Assassins, The Black Scorpion. Several new staff members were added to WCW they were Referees Jim Molineaux and Charles Robinson and longtime Vince McMahon confidant Pat Patterson has been added as an agent. The month saw two members of the staff resign new contracts they were Bobby Heenan and Teddy Long. The month also one of the more talented members of the WCW leave the roster amidst the changing of the guard between the old Booker and the new one. Jerry LAwler was slated to be a big part of WCW going forward and even had a long term angle based around his history in Memphis you saw the beginning of the angle as he was set to return on the first Nitro after the Clash Of The Champions holding the USWA World Championship and se him claim to be the real worlds champ however those plans were sunk when LAwler informed management that he had signed a contract with the WWF. The question on most fans minds is who is under the mask as the Black Scorpion and we here at grapple fanatics are clueless as to who it is under the mask pro wrestling is never as stumped as we are on this we know WCW closed the contract on a major player from one of the 2 smallest members of the big 4 but we have yet to ascertain as to the identity of the black scorpion. Simply put when we know you know. We have learned that Barry Windham arrived late to the week 3 taping and he recieved the nice fatherly like speech by a man much younger and to his credit Barry was very receptive. The WCW Powerplant received a brand new batch of talent this month including Gran Naniwa, Masayuki Naruse, MAsato Yakushiji, Ace Steel, Homicide, Mike Quackenbush. Of the newest recruits management is said to be highest on the last three mentioned. Also joining the powerplant are Kimo who will join his brother Ekmo. Perro Aguayo Jr. who will join his father and Hector Guerrero who was brought in for the purpose of helping further develop the next generation of superstars. Rumour has it WCW has just finalized a contract with AWA superstar Chavo Guerrero Jr. he was originally offered the chance to jump to WCW earlier in the month freeing him up for a debut at Clash Of The Champions however he said no at first chance after signing his uncle Hector, Jason Danielson reportedly reached out again this time through Hector. Look for Chavo to debut in the near future. Clash Of The Champions draws a 3.28 ppv buy rate. This was said to be a slight disappointment after Starrcade drew 3.97 however we here at Wrestle Fanatics are not surprised as the main event was a match that had previously been seen three times before by the audience. We have learned that Jason Danielson is not done bringing in new names and expects to continue to continue adding to the roster through the next two to three months. Rumour has it WCW will be debuting two brand new entrance videos on tv next week. We have also learned that WCW has reached out to several well known bands and artists to record new music for talents the company plans to either debut or re-package over the summer who those bands are we dont know but rumour has it Johnny Cash is among many artists to be contacted. We have received reports that two angles were taped at Main Event that did not make air one was Ray Gonzalez doing a promo boasting about his skills this was originally planned to air however it was decided to edit out the interview and package Gonzalez with a manager. Also taped was Steve Austin cutting a promo on Rick Rude however this was never planned to make air as it was solely a Red Herring used to keep the fans guessing as to what they expected to happen at COTC as Main Event was taped before the PPV aired.

That wouldn't have worked anyway, since I have owned that particular belt since sometime last year. Bought it when WWF started purchasing old belts, to make sure such an important artifact for the Jarrett-dynasty would not be mis-used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
