RayW Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/banner.png http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/banner2.png http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Magazine/header1.png http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Magazine/headline1.png by Joel Hattner Eric Bischoff is no stranger to anybody that watches professional wrestling; he has been a main stay here in World Championship Wrestling since 1991, joining the company from the now defunct American Wrestling Association. Starting in the finance department of AWA, he would eventually work his way up the company to become an on-air personality. This was completely last minute, when AWA's usual on-air interviewer, Larry Nelson, was arrested for a DUI offence. Some say that Bischoff only got the gig because he was already in the TV studio, and wearing his suit and tie. Obviously, this is everything that an announcer actually needs! If things had been different then maybe we still wouldn't know who Eric Bischoff was today, had Larry Nelson never been busted for a DUI, or had Bischoff not been in the TV studio on that day - which also strikes up another interesting question, had Eric not been there, who would have filled in? And would they have been as good? Since 1993 Bischoff has worked his way up the chain of command here in WCW, and now holds the title of Executive Vice President. That technically means that Mr. Bischoff is 'the boss'. And boy has he already thrown his weight around - but in a good way! Some of the changes you may have noticed is the WCW logo. It's not as boring as it used to be, is it? It was all Mr. Bischoff's idea, believe it or not. He stated that to compete with the World Wrestling Federation you had to be cutting edge. That's why you'll slowly see a change of product over the coming months. New talent, possibly, will start to show up on WCW television, bringing a fresh approach to the squared circle. But Bischoff's biggest feat to date must be the acquisition of Hulk Hogan. Hogan has joined us having not been in an wrestling ring in the United States since August 1993, and the fans are climbing the walls to see him finally step back in the ring! He's already confronted WCW World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair, and a show down looks set for Bash at the Beach later this month. So the only question that is on everyone's lips is this; who will Bischoff bring in next? What will he do next? And will he be able to bring down Vince McMahon and his wrestling empire?

Ping von Erich Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 The turning point year... Hogan is a brand new commodity, no NWO yet, Arn Anderson still healthy, Flair is back and still peaking. And that under card of Foley, Austin, Pillman, Brian and Brad Armstrong, Regal, Paul Levesque. Just an epic period of time to play as WCW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayW Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/hotline.png Hello, you have dialed the World Championship Wrestling Hotline! I'm "Mean" Gene Okerlund, and I'll be talking you through the latest news here in WCW! First of all, let's talk about the biggest news in the history of professional wrestling, ever! That's the news of the one and only, "The Immortal" Hulk Hogan signing with WCW earlier last month! Since moving from "up north" last August, The Hulkster has been out in Japan, wrestling with our friends, New Japan Pro Wrestling, and out in Hollywood working on such blockbusters as Mr. Nanny, Thunder In Paradise, and it's upcoming sequal, Thunder In Paradise 2! The Hulkster has already set his sights on becoming the WCW World Heavyweight Champion, and has challenged "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair to a match later this month at Bash at the Beach. Ric Flair, never one to shy away from a challenge, has accepted, and now the biggest "Clash of the Titans" is on! Will Flair be able to retain? Will Hogan be able to take the gold at his first attempt? Make sure to buy WCW Bash at the Beach, LIVE! on Pay-Per-View later this month! From there we go to some ins and outs of WCW in the last week. Well, there isn't so much in the way of "ins", but there are a few "outs" here this week. World Championship Wrestling has come to terms on the releases off Bobby Walker, Lt. James Earl Wright, Buddy Lee Parker, Sgt. Craig Pittman, Shanghai Pierce, Tex Slazenger and Bill Dundee. WCW wishes them all the best in their future endeavours. There is talk within WCW that some new faces may pop over the coming weeks and months, with executives having their eye on a handful of young talent, including some that are currently "up north", but it remains to be seen if any sort of contracts or deals will be brokered. As always, though, the WCW Hotline and WCW Magazine are your number one places for all WCW news, so don't hesitate to call back in a day or two to discover all the latest goings on, here in World Championship Wrestling! Remember, kids, calls cost $1.89 per minute, so make sure to ask the bill payers permission before calling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayW Posted January 1, 2013 Author Share Posted January 1, 2013 http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Logos/WCWSaturdayNight_zps67c7c8bb.png Event Information Arena: Rosemont Horizon Attendance: 14,381 Grade: B- Pre-Show Results » The Nasty Boys def. Brad Armstrong & Erik Watts ( D+ ) » Dustin Rhodes def. Jean-Paul Levesque ( C ) As WCW Saturday Night open up, we join Eric Bischoff and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan at ringside, sitting in their commentary booth. They tell us that WCW is place to see the best in professional wrestling, and then they start to bicker amongst themselves. The two continue their tirade as we cut away to the ring for our opening match. Grade: D- Notes: None In a match that had some good action and average heat, Lord Steven Regal defeated Johnny B. Badd in 9:38 by submission with a Regal Stretch to retain the WCW Television Championship. Grade: C+ Notes: Johnny B. Badd is improving in performance skills.http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Lord_Steven_Regal.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Johnny_B_Badd.png WCW Television Championship Match After the match, Lord Regal decides that he hasn't done enough damage to Johnny B. Badd and goes on attacking him. Johnny B. Badd manages to get a few shots in, but he is clearly far too injured to protect himself properly, and Regal lashes down blow after blow. Eventually Regal leaves a beaten Badd on the floor in the ring, walking off with his WCW Television Title. Grade: C- Notes: None http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Scotty_Riggs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Bunkhouse_Buck.png In an extremely short match, Scotty Riggs defeated Bunkhouse Buck in 5:15 by pinfall with an American-Plex. Grade: D+ Notes: Scotty Riggs is improving in rumble and technical skills. Col. Robert Parker did some good work at ringside, in Bunkhouse Buck's corner. Steve Austin is walking around backstage with his WCW United States Championship when Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat approaches him. He says that he doesn't appreciate the way Austin walks around the locker room, and that he needs someone to teach him a lesson. Steamboat goes on to say that Austin doesn't deserve the title belt that is drapped over his shoulder. Austin counters by saying that if Steamboat really wants to put him in his place, then he'll face him in the ring next week on Saturday Night. Steamboat says it'll be a pleasure to teach him a valuable lesson in the ring, and Austin turns on his heels and leaves. Grade: C Notes: Ricky Steamboat improvised his lines, at the request of Steve Austin, and didn't do so well. http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Sting.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Brian_Armstrong.png In a match that had some good action and average heat, Sting defeated Brian Armstrong in 6:02 by submission with a Scorpion Deathlock. Grade: C+ Notes: Brian Armstrong is improving in performance skills. Sting is improving rumble skills. A pre-recorded promo from Hulk Hogan is shown. He's sitting on a beach in California, surrounded by pretty girls and good looking guys. Hogan explains that while Ric Flair thinks he lives the high life with his "styling, profiling, blah, blah, blah" it's infact Hogan himself that is living the true high life. The Hulkster says that he's just got done filming a cameo for a new upcoming TV show, while nobody is really interested in seeing "The Nature Boy". Hogan tell's Flair that when they meet at Bash at the Beach at the end of the month, he'll be taking the WCW World Heavyweight Championship off his hands. "What'cha gonna do brother, when Hulkamania runs wild on you?!" Grade: A Notes: Hogan's dialoug was improvised, and he come off really well. http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Marcus_Bagwell.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/The_Patriot.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Booker_T.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Stevie_Ray.png In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Harlem Heat defeated Stars 'n' Stripes in 8:31 when Booker T defeated Marcus Bagwell by pinfall with a Harlem Hangover. Grade: C- Notes: Despite the great chemistry between Booker T and Stevie Ray, Booker T still looked off his game tonight. The Ptariot is improving in technical and performance skills. Marcus Bagwell is improving in performance skills. Ricky Steamboat is leaving his locker room backstage when Steve Austin blindside's him with the WCW United States Championship. Austin tells Steamboat that he needs to learn to show some respect to the younger wrestlers in the locker room, especially those that hold Championship titles, like himself. Austin continues to tell a beaten down Steamboat that he couldn't wait until next week, which is why he had to get his hands on him before the night was through. Austin walks off as Steamboat struggles to get to his feet. Grade: C+ Notes: None http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Cactus_Jack.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Ron_Simmons.png In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Cactus Jack defeated Ron Simmons in 10:11 by pinfall with a Double Arm DDT. Grade: C+ Notes: Ron Simmons seemed off his game tonight. http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/The_Guardian_Angel.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Terry_Funk.png In a match that had some good action and average heat, Terry Funk defeated The Guardian Angel in 9:30 by submission with a Spinning Toe Hold. During the match we also had Vader run in and attack Guardian Angel to help Terry Funk get the win. Grade: C Notes: The Gaurdian Angel and Terry Funk have pretty good chemistry, which lifted the match. After the match Vader continued his vicious beatdown on The Gaurdian Angel, with Terry Funk slowly making his way back up the ramp. Vader left Gaurdian Angel down and out as we cut to a commercial break. Grade: C Notes: Vader looked good in this segment. "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair grabbed a mic' before his match with Brian Pillman to talk about the arrival of Hulk Hogan. Flair says that he went "up north" a few years ago, and came back "down south" when he realised that the real fight was right here in World Championship Wrestling! Now that Hogan has come across, he says, a true 'Clash of the Titans' can happen at Bash of the Beach, "...and, WOOOO, what a Clash that is gonna be!" He says that Hogan wants to talk about living the high life, strutting around filming cameo's, Flair says that Hogan's time at Bash at the Beach is going to be the best wrestling cameo in history, when he taps out to the Figure Four Leglock in a matter of minutes. "Remember, to be the man, Hogan, you got to beat the man! WOOOOO!" Grade: B Notes: None http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Ric_Flair.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/vs.pnghttp://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh287/RayW1986/WCW%20Dynasty/Roster/Brian_Pillman.png Non-Title Match In a bout that featured great action and a good crowd, Ric Flair defeated Brian Pillman in 15:38 by submission with a Figure-Four Leg Lock.
