It also began this month that both the AWA and TNA had reached working agreements with WCW allowing the companies unprecedented to access to each others roster. I t was seen quickly with the arrivals of Rey Mysterio and Ultimo Dragon from AWA and Chris JEricho and Christian Cage form TNA with more rumoured to be participating in the Super J Cup. The best match from WCW during the 4 corners era happened between Terry Funk and AWA superstar Rey Mysterio JR who achieved an A rated match at the Great American Bash only time will tell if it can hold on and be the match of the year.

rvdjrv2002 Posted July 22, 2012 Author Share Posted July 22, 2012 No mention of D*ck Flair in the WWF? I'm midly offended somebody must have have miised shanes promo from january for you ill repost it 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. With that Shane dropped the mic and proceeded towards toward the ring for his match. Shane Douglas Promo B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackKnifed72 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 While I'd hardly call the only Global wrestling promotion "the bush league up north", it's good to see that Shane Douglas is still the same. He's always been a favorite of mine (we are from the same hometown...well he's from a suburb)...hmmm, wonder if he'd like to join "the bush leagues" when his WCW contract mercifully runs out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
