In this thread, I rewatch 1991 WCW.
1991 was a really fun year for WCW. While 1989 blows it away in the ring, and 1993 & 1994 blow it away in terms of offbeat shenanigans, 1991 was a nice blend of both, and for me, the last of the "vintage" WCW years ('85-'91). 1992 was weird, and 1993 no longer had the classic southern wrasslin' WCW feel. The Hulkster ran wild in 1994, and southern wrasslin' was dead.
It was the year Ric Flair left. It was the year Rick Rude returned. Sting blossomed. Vader was being used more in between Japan tours. The Four Horseman were around early on, and The Dangerous Alliance came later, and THE YORK FOUNDATION came in between. Paul E had one of, if not his best years as a performer. Luger! Windham! The Diamond Studd! OZ! Ron Simmons! Stunning Steve Austin! PN NEWS!
I'll be rewatching the flagship shows, Saturday's World Championship Wrestling & Sunday's WCW Main Event, along with the six PPV's and four Clash of the Champions specials.
PPV
-WrestleWar '91 "War Games"
-WCW/New Japan Supershow
-SuperBrawl I "Return of the Rising Sun"
-Great American Bash (oh so bad)
-Halloween Havoc "Chamber of Horrors" (awesomely bad)
-Starrcade "BattleBowl: The Lethal Lottery" (awesomely bad)
Clash of the Champions
-Clash XIV "Dixie Dynamite"
-Clash XV "Knocksville USA" (guess the location)
-Clash XVI "Fall Brawl" (soon to be a PPV!)
-Clash XVII (this had no clever name)
Let's do this.
