WCW: Saturday Night (12.19.92)

Posted by Matt

WCW: Saturday Night
December 19, 1992
Atlanta, GA
Center Stage Theatre

The current WCW and NWA champs are as follows:
WCW World Champion: Ron Simmons (8/2/1992)
NWA World Champion: Masahiro Chono (8/12/1992)
WCW U.S. Champion: Rick Rude (11/19/1991)
WCW/NWA World Tag Team Champions: Ricky Steamboat & Shane Douglas (11/18/1992)
WCW World Television Champion: Vacant (11/1/1992)

Your hosts are Jim Ross and Larry Zbyszko. Check out the “King of Cable” trophy behind Ross and Zbyszko! They take us back to last week when Barry Windham and Ricky Steamboat arm themselves with chairs. Nobody gets whacked as DUSTIN RHODES shows up behind Windham, steals his chair away, and misses a big swing up against the ringpost. Rhodes and Windham get into a fist fight while Ricky Steamboat and Shane Douglas cheer on Dustin from ringside. They brawl back to the locker room. IT’S SO CHAOTIC! Read the rest of this entry →

Anywho, the WWE Network has selected some of the greatest black wrestlers ever and offers a special on each of them. We start with a couple Hall of Famers: Tony Atlas and Bobo Brazil.

Your host is Gene Okerlund.

This is going to be hopefully a regular column where I pick a random mix bag of wrestling matches that I’ve downloaded and never actually watched, but heard they were worth watching. We shall see if the word on the street is correct. Read the rest of this entry →
