FunTranscript
00:00Yet another victim will fall prey to six-foot-nine-inch Big Sid Vicious.
00:06Lex Luger, the total package, and the former heavyweight champion of the World Sting
00:10will team up together for the first time ever on the Power Hour.
00:13Not just that, but it's Barry Windham one-on-one against Ron Simmons
00:17this morning on the Power Hour.
00:30The following tag team event is set for one fall.
00:54Introducing first team number one.
00:56Here are the United States Tag Team Champions from Detroit, Michigan.
01:00And it's got Steiner, the Steiner brother!
01:05Entering our opponent from Union City, Indiana, Rob Morgan
01:10and his partner from Princeton, Kentucky, Mike Settle.
01:14All right, everyone, the Steiner's United States Tag Team Champions
01:17who tomorrow night in the Omni in Atlanta will defend the United States Tag Team Championship.
01:22That big event, the Omni, starts at 7.30, and I want to remind you fans
01:25that we'll be telling you more about that, especially our fans here in Atlanta,
01:28and more about that throughout the hour here this morning.
01:31And the tickets are on sale today at all Ticketmaster outlets.
01:35If you wait until tomorrow to buy your tickets, they'll be available at the Omni box office.
01:41Well, Mike Samples here just made a really big mistake because he backed Scott Steiner up into the rope.
01:46And instead of breaking clean, what he's done is now he's raised the ire of the Steiner brothers.
01:52Single leg pickup by Scott Steiner.
01:55Stomps away at the face there.
01:56I don't know if that was exactly called for.
01:58But in any event, he sends Sample for the ride.
02:01Catches him with the elbow up high.
02:03We really got one of our most outstanding broadcasts here this morning on TBS.
02:08World's heavyweight champion Ric Flair is here.
02:10Lion, Brian will be here.
02:13JYD, Ricky Morton, and Tommy Rich will be here.
02:17There's a call set.
02:18Ron Simmons and Barry Windham one-on-one.
02:22Scott Steiner rather frustrated in this contest.
02:26And here comes Rob Morgan in there.
02:29This guy needs to put on a few pounds if he wants to step into the ring with the Steiner brothers.
02:36There's the tag.
02:37Here comes Rick Steiner.
02:39U.S. Tag Team Champions.
02:43Not long on brains, but long on athletic ability.
02:47And they've been getting by with that for quite a while as evidenced by right here.
02:50Looks like they're setting him up for the DDT off the top rope.
02:53They have fascinating physical potential.
02:58As the DDT from the top, Rob Morgan will be history, no doubt about that.
03:03The Steiner's on their way to the Omni this Sunday night at 7.30.
03:08The United States Tag Team Champions, Steiner Brothers, are your winner!
03:14This one makes me nervous.
03:15He's goofy.
03:16The Steiner Brothers, the United States Tag Team Champions,
03:19utilizing a DDT off the top rope.
03:21I am very impressed.
03:23With what they've accomplished in the past few months,
03:25but they have a lot of teams just waiting for a shot at the U.S. Tag Team title.
03:31The Steiner's flying, Brian, and their Captain Sting will take on the Horsemen in the War Games
03:44one week from tomorrow night, exclusively on pay-per-view.
03:47Now, let's talk a little bit about the War Games.
03:49A very unique situation.
03:51Two rings will be sitting side-by-side.
03:54They'll all be enclosed by a giant steel cage with a top on it.
03:58When all eight men have finally entered the War Games, then the match beyond begins,
04:05and Paul Vett has a very unique stipulation.
04:07See, here's the thing.
04:08Let's make it so simple that even you can understand it.
04:12The bottom line is somebody has to submit or surrender.
04:16One of these eight superstars, none of whom have ever given up for any reason in their lives.
04:21One of these eight guys is going to have to quit on a live national pay-per-view.
04:26Which one is it going to be?
04:27We'll find out on February 24th.
04:30One man that certainly hopes it isn't him.
04:32It's Flying Brian.
04:33In this big main event, he's also on his way to the ring.
04:37Let's go now and see Flying Brian in action.
04:42From Cincinnati, Ohio, at 227 pounds,
04:46Flying Brian!
04:48In the ring, his opponent from Los Angeles, California,
04:54Strap Fire, Bill Forrest.
04:57Why do you hope it's not Flying Brian that submits or surrenders next week at Wrestle War?
05:01I hope it's one of the horsemen, quite frankly.
05:03Well, that's very prejudiced of you.
05:05No, it's my opinion.
05:06It's bias.
05:07You're against the horsemen.
05:09I have that prerogative, being the host of this program.
05:12When you work your way up and you're a host of the program,
05:15maybe you can express your opinion in that regard, too.
05:17Yeah, but you see, being the host of the program,
05:19you should set an example for the young people
05:21that want to work their way up to a position such as yours.
05:24You should be totally unbiased.
05:26Well, thank you for the philosophy lesson,
05:28but I'll pass on your advice.
05:33Flying Brian rolling,
05:34Scrap Fire and Bill Forrest to the rope.
05:37Flying Brian, by the way, fans,
05:39will be on the big event this Monday night
05:40in Montgomery, Alabama Civic Center.
05:43It's a WCW national television taping.
05:46That's in Montgomery, Alabama.
05:47This Monday night, 7 o'clock,
05:48over 30 great stars will be on hand.
05:51These fans, the Montgomery area
05:52will have your chance to be on television.
05:54We encourage you to bring your posters
05:55and your banners to that big event
05:57Monday night in Montgomery.
05:59Nice bridge here by Flying Brian
06:01working his way up off the mat
06:02on Scrap Fire and Bill Forrest.
06:04Obviously, this is one of the many things
06:06that he learned from his mentor,
06:08Nature Boy, Rick Flair.
06:09Flying Brian football block.
06:11Down goes Scrap Fire and Bill Forrest.
06:13We'll see Rick Flair a little bit later
06:14here this morning on the Power Hour.
06:17Tillman's got great agility
06:18as is evidenced right here.
06:20Look at the great strength as well.
06:23And Pillman from behind the dropkick.
06:25Out goes Scrap Fire and Bill Forrest.
06:27Much to the delight of the fans here
06:29watching the Power Hour this morning.
06:34Great broadcast tonight on DBS 605
06:37World Championship Wrestling.
06:39A return match in the Clash of Champions.
06:41The Z-Man takes on beautiful Bobby Eaton.
06:43And after reviewing the takes,
06:45the officials decided not to reverse the decision
06:47but to order a rematch
06:49because it was very clear
06:50that beautiful Bobby's shoulder was up
06:52as he was being counted down for three.
06:55We're going to see a team
06:57that could even make the Steiner Brothers
06:58run for their lives.
07:00Dan Hanson and Stin Fishing tonight.
07:03actually team up on national TV.
07:06Of course, Hanson and Vicious tomorrow night
07:08on the Omni will meet Sting and Lex Luthor
07:10with a great tag team of men.
07:12Tillman with another great dropkick there
07:13on Scrap Iron Bill Ford.
07:17Reverse karate kick.
07:19Lion Bryant will be headed toward Phoenix
07:22next weekend.
07:24With a big event.
07:26Learned that from Flair 2.
07:27Fly and Brian Pellman.
07:33Oh!
07:34Tillman dropping it all there
07:35on Scrap Iron Bill Ford.
07:37Lion Bryant.
07:39Perhaps the unsung member
07:41of the War Games team.
07:43But he will come to fight.
07:44I'll tell you that.
07:45What an opportunity for him
07:46to prove himself.
07:48Here is your winner,
07:49Fly and Brian!
07:50Well, it was an impressive victory for flying Brian Pillman.
07:57Here you see him going over the top rope
07:59as Scrap Lion Bill Ford ducks under,
08:02but Pillman holds on, comes back into the ring
08:05to defeat his opponent.
08:06But here's the thing.
08:07He used to be a protege of Nature Boy Ric Flair
08:10and the world's heavyweight champion
08:12has personally told me that it's his mission
08:14at WrestleWar next week
08:16to make this gentleman submit
08:19or surrender.
08:20We'll find out in the war game.
08:23We've got a great wrestling weekend coming your way.
08:25WCW tonight, two big hours at 6.05.
08:27Tomorrow night, 6.05, the WCW main event.
08:31More on that in the hour.
08:32Ric Flair is next.
08:43The following contest, it is set for one fall.
08:47Introducing first, making his way for the ring
08:50from Charlotte, North Carolina,
08:54weighing 242 pounds,
08:57the incomparable Nature Boy,
09:00Ric Flair!
09:02World's heavyweight champion, Nature Boy Ric Flair,
09:09making his way to the ring here this morning
09:11in the power hour.
09:13Ric Flair certainly has his hands full
09:17in more ways than one
09:18as he prepares to meet the biggest man
09:21in all of professional sports,
09:25the 7'7", 450-pound elegante
09:27for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.
09:32That's really going to be a showdown.
09:33I can tell you that.
09:34The opponent from Middle Beach, South Carolina,
09:36245 pounds,
09:38Ric Flair.
09:39Yeah, but the match with El Eagante
09:41will never happen.
09:44Of course it's going to happen.
09:45No, because tonight at 6-0-5
09:47on World Championship Wrestling,
09:49I am personally going to get
09:51El Eagante in the danger zone
09:53to admit that he's nothing more
09:55than a freak of nature
09:56and that through his interpreter
09:57he's going to admit
09:58that he's going to go back to Argentina
10:00and leave the greatest heavyweight champion
10:02of all time alone.
10:04Well, I don't think a whole lot of us
10:06are going to believe that,
10:07but he will be interviewing El Eagante tonight.
10:09We'll see how that comes out,
10:10but the match has been signed.
10:12I have seen the signed document.
10:14Ric Flair will defend
10:14the World Heavyweight Championship
10:16in very short order
10:17against the 7-7 giant
10:20from Argentina, El Eagante.
10:23Mike Hart will challenge Flair
10:25in this non-title event.
10:28Mike Hart is about to learn
10:29the wrestling lesson of his life.
10:31When this match is over,
10:33he can go home to his family
10:34and say, hey,
10:35I got beaten up
10:37by the greatest wrestler
10:39in the history
10:39of World Championship wrestling.
10:43Flair with a side headlock
10:44on Mike Hart.
10:45Fans still to come,
10:46the leading contenders
10:47for the six-man tag team championship.
10:50The Junkyard Dog,
10:51Ricky Morton and Tommy Rich
10:52will be here.
10:53And we'll take a closer look
10:54in the Wrestling News Network
10:55a little bit later
10:56with Gordon Soley
10:58about the Ric Flair,
11:00El Eagante situation.
11:02Flair has defeated
11:03the greatest the sport has to offer.
11:05He has dominated WCW Wrestling
11:07for quite some time.
11:09But on the other hand,
11:10he has never stepped into the ring
11:11with any one of the potential
11:13of El Eagante.
11:14I'm going to show you
11:15why he's not.
11:18Flair very confident,
11:19very arrogant,
11:20some would say.
11:21Well, he has a right to be.
11:22I mean, here's a man
11:23that has defeated
11:24seven times
11:25a World Heavyweight Champion
11:27to get the belt.
11:29I mean,
11:30if there's anybody
11:30that deserves to be
11:31even a physical,
11:32if there's anybody
11:32that's earned the right
11:34to be arrogant and cocky,
11:36it's Nature Boy,
11:37Ric Flair.
11:37Flair back in the ring.
11:40Of course,
11:40as we said,
11:41we will be examining
11:43his pending championship matchup.
11:46You fans have the opportunity
11:48to see that one.
11:49Don't miss it.
11:50El Eagante
11:50has been conducting
11:51some secret workouts.
11:53We understand
11:54he's not only been developing
11:55the claw hold
11:56to even greater length
11:57because of such
11:58fascinating strength,
12:00but he's also working
12:01on a couple of new holes
12:02that could certainly
12:04be devastating
12:04if applied
12:05to the Nature Boy.
12:06You know what Nature Boy
12:07Ric Flair's
12:08favorite hold is?
12:09I think your four-leg lot.
12:11Nods when he holds up
12:12the champagne glass
12:13after a victory
12:14and everybody toasts
12:15the heavyweight champion
12:16of the world,
12:17Nature Boy Ric Flair.
12:19I've seen you get down
12:20to your knees
12:20and kiss his hand.
12:21I thought that was
12:23rather unique.
12:25Well, maybe if you
12:25had as much respect
12:27for what this man
12:27has accomplished
12:28as I did,
12:29maybe if you would
12:30respect a man
12:31for his greatness
12:32like I do,
12:33you would drop down
12:34to one man
12:35and kiss his hand
12:35like I've seen
12:36from The Godfather
12:37Part 3
12:37just like I did also.
12:39I don't think so.
12:40I don't think so.
12:41Well, that's very
12:42disrespectful of you.
12:43Great right hand
12:43by Nature Boy
12:44Ric Flair.
12:45I respect his ability
12:46immensely.
12:47I don't respect
12:48his pompous attitude
12:49that the wrestling world
12:52revolves around him.
12:53We have a lot
12:54of great athletes
12:55in WCW
12:55and one of them
12:56is the young man
12:57from Argentina
12:58who wants the belt
12:59quite clearly.
13:00Yeah, but in the
13:01previous match
13:02you were just saying
13:03how you hope
13:03it's one of the
13:04four horsemen
13:04that's the myth
13:05of surrenders
13:05in the war game.
13:08Good memory.
13:09Good recall there.
13:10I mean, this man
13:11has never quitted
13:12anything in his life
13:13if he didn't
13:13he wouldn't be
13:13a seven-time champion.
13:16Seven times
13:17this man has won
13:18the heavyweight championship
13:19of the world.
13:19When you're a seven-time champion
13:20it means you also
13:21lost him six times.
13:22Yeah, but you see
13:23every time he's been down
13:24he got...
13:24the shame is not
13:25being knocked down
13:27the true shame
13:28is not getting back up.
13:29Here's the difference
13:30right here
13:31is the figure four
13:31leg lock
13:32he is tremendous
13:33at this maneuver
13:34and there's no doubt
13:36that if he can wrap
13:37his legs around
13:38the long legs
13:39of Eligante
13:40Flair would certainly
13:42have the distinct
13:42advantage
13:43that surely
13:43would win the match.
13:45Referee calling
13:46for the break
13:46the hole
13:47finally Flair does
13:48and wins it here.
13:48Ladies and gentlemen
13:49here's your winner
13:49Nature Boy
13:51Rick Flair
13:53Rick Flair in the Omni
13:54tomorrow night

17:11Box office
17:12These fans coming in
17:13Out of town
17:13Let me ask you
17:16This
17:16If the lieutenant
17:17And the Masters
17:18Blasters
17:18Win this match
17:19Do they get into
17:20The finals
17:21Tomorrow night
17:21In the Omni
17:22Have no idea
17:23Well that's something
17:25We can find out
17:26Don't you think
17:27You choose to
17:28I mean
17:29Because this is
17:30My kind of
17:30Six-man tag
17:31Right over here
17:32This is my kind
17:33Of team
17:33I knew that you
17:36Were respected
17:37Morton Rich
17:38And the Jumpyard Dog
17:39And I'm glad
17:40That you've admitted
17:40That on TV
17:41No no no no
17:42I mean James
17:44Joe Wright
17:44And the Masters
17:44Blasters
17:45I mean
17:45Here you have
17:46A retired cop
17:47And two reformed
17:48Criminals
17:48I like that
17:50It's a good
17:51Combination
17:51A good trio
17:52Ricky Morton
17:53Right hand
17:54Break the eyes
17:57There by
17:58Blade
17:58Morton quickly
17:59Down below
18:00He's a great
18:01I think Morton
18:02Is probably
18:03The catalyst
18:03Of this
18:04Six-man combination
18:05Jumpyard Dog
18:06Clearly the man
18:07With the most bulk
18:08And the most strength
18:09But I really believe
18:10Ricky Morton
18:10Is the man
18:11That kind of
18:11Sets the tone
18:12In the six-man
18:13Combination
18:14Of Jumpyard Dog
18:15And Morton
18:17And Rich
18:17Well he has
18:18More experience
18:19In tag teams
18:19Than either
18:20Jumpyard Dog
18:21Or Tommy Rich
18:21Tommy Rich
18:22An accomplished
18:23Singles wrestler
18:24Jumpyard Dog
18:25Has held titles
18:26All around the world
18:27But Ricky Morton
18:28Four times
18:29The tag team
18:30Champion of the world
18:31With his partner
18:32Robert Gibson
18:33Of the rock and roll
18:33Express
18:34He is truly
18:35A tag team specialist
18:36But now
18:37These junkyard dogs
18:39At the powerhouse
18:40In the ring
18:40He's stepping in the ring
18:41With a guy
18:41That's 6'10
18:42300-something pounds
18:44Well J.Y.
18:46Certainly not
18:47Intimidated
18:48But you're right
18:48This big
18:49Steal of the
18:51Master Blaster
18:52Is certainly
18:53An impressive
18:54Looking athlete
18:54Fans
18:56As we stand
18:57When we talk
18:57About impressive
18:58Athletes
18:58He's 7'7
19:00450 pounds
19:01Elegante
19:02Will indeed
19:02Challenge
19:03Nature boy
19:04Rick Flair
19:04For the WCW
19:05World Heavyweight
19:06Championship
19:07Gordon Soley
19:08Will be along
19:08With us
19:08A little bit
19:09Later in the broadcast
19:10To focus
19:10On that
19:11Tremendous issue
19:12J.Y.D.
19:16Trying to get
19:16Set for the
19:17Headbutts there
19:17One of his
19:18Better offensive
19:18Weapons
19:19J.Y.
19:21Is taking his
19:21Time with this
19:22Big boy
19:23He's not rushing
19:24In
19:24He needs to
19:25Be very careful
19:25Because a good
19:26Right cross
19:27Or a good slam
19:28From this big
19:29Master Blaster
19:30And it's all over
19:31J.Y.D.
19:31Will be in
19:32Montgomery, Alabama
19:33This Monday night
19:337 o'clock
19:34For the WCW
19:35National Television
19:35Taping
19:36Comey always
19:37Enjoy going to
19:38Montgomery
19:39And to say
19:39Hello to his
19:40Good friend
19:40Burhead Jones
19:41Who is a resident
19:42Is he still alive?
19:45I would assume
19:46That's why he
19:47Wanted to say
19:47Hello to him
19:48That man must be
19:49195 years old
19:51Lieutenant James Earl Wright
19:54Missed the clothesline
19:55Right there
19:55Tommy Rich
19:56Up and over
19:56Great quickness
19:57By Wildfire
19:58And there's a
19:59Clothesline
19:59With authority
20:00Arm drag takeover
20:01Tommy Rich
20:02Right into the arm bar
20:03Tommy Rich
20:04The former heavyweight
20:05Champion of the world
20:06He won that title
20:07In 1981
20:08Really a
20:09Great
20:09Comeback story
20:11In the last couple
20:11Of years
20:12For Tommy Rich
20:13You see Morton
20:14With the arm bar
20:15But the lieutenant
20:16There
20:16Forces Morton
20:18Into the corner
20:18James Earl Wright
20:19Is a real
20:20Stocky
20:21Strong competitor
20:22But there's an inverted
20:24Atomic drop
20:24That will certainly
20:25Take the start
20:26Shot of you
20:26Oh it certainly
20:28Will take more
20:29Than that
20:29And another arm drag
20:30Obviously the game
20:31Plan here
20:32Is keep the lieutenant
20:33At bay
20:34The master
20:35Blasters are the
20:36Lesser experience
20:37Of the trio
20:38So they want to
20:39Get the lieutenant
20:40Down to where he
20:40Gets frustrated
20:41And makes the
20:42Task
20:43We'll be talking
20:45A great deal
20:46About the event
20:46In the Omni
20:47Tomorrow night
20:48Also WCW action

21:02At the Mecca Arena
21:04Have you ever

21:07Certainly have
21:08Oh that's right
21:09I heard
21:09Did that lawsuit
21:10Get cleared up yet
21:11I don't know
21:12What you're talking
21:13About
21:13Side slam there
21:15You and Cottle
21:16You always deny
21:17All that
21:17Cottle be on

21:24You knew I'm
21:25Working with
21:26That's right
21:26You admitted
21:27You fell right
21:28Into this one
21:28Didn't you
21:29Well
21:29I feel like
21:29Jim Henson
21:30The late Jim Henson
21:31Well
21:32Entertaining children
21:33I know that
21:34John Madden
21:34And everybody else
21:35Out there
21:35Is going to be
21:36Taking notes tonight
21:37To see how
21:37A true color analyst
21:39Handles himself
21:40And really
21:41Makes up for
21:42The play by play
21:43Of Jim Ross
21:44When I become
21:44Tonight
21:45The co-host
21:46Of World Championship
21:46But Missy
21:47Now Missy's
21:48Going to be
21:48On the show too
21:49Yes Paul
21:50She certainly is
21:51It's necessary
21:52Window dressing
21:53Or undressing
21:54What are you there for
21:55I'm there
21:57To provide you
21:58With the knowledge
21:59That you so sorely need
22:00Oh good
22:01Okay
22:01Well I'm sure
22:04That your many critics
22:05Will be very happy
22:06To see that you're
22:06Back in the color slot
22:07This Saturday night
22:08And we'll see how it goes
22:09Wow beautiful
22:10Power slam
22:12Nice move there
22:12You know for a guy
22:14That's only been wrestling
22:15For a year or so
22:16This master blaster
22:18Has really become
22:19An impressive athlete
22:20Not to mention
22:21How the big boy
22:22Has come along as well
22:24This might be
22:25The six man tag team
22:26Of 1991
22:27I'm telling you
22:28They might head
22:28To the out
22:29And go for the title
22:30Lieutenant James Earl
22:32Ride
22:32The most experienced
22:33Man on that side
22:34The headbutt downstairs
22:35Good offensive move
22:37There by the lieutenant
22:38Well just like
22:40Most cops
22:40Is a really thick head
22:42So he's using it
22:43To his advantage
22:44I can't blame the guy
22:45Wharton there
22:50Stops the offense
22:50Momentarily
22:51With a nice kick
22:52I'm glad I'm working
22:53With you though
22:53I got a raise
22:54On this assignment
22:55Kind of like
22:55They pay the guys
22:56Over to Saudi Arabia
22:57For hazardous duty pay
22:58Well it's nice
22:59To be working
23:00With you Mr. Bernard Shaw
23:01So I do appreciate
23:03The boost in salary
23:05I guess it's compensation
23:06For having to
23:07Babyset you and Missy
23:08Anytime somebody
23:10Works with me
23:11Their stock rises
23:12They make a lot more
23:13Money working with me
23:14Than without me
23:15Oh yeah
23:15That's it
23:17Good move there
23:18By Ricky Morton
23:18Good move by Morton
23:21Now let's see
23:22If he can
23:22Get to his corner
23:24And tag either
23:24The Junkyard Dog
23:25Or Tommy Wildfire Rich
23:26And he tags in Wildfire
23:29And the Master Blaster
23:32Seal did not
23:33Get to his corner
23:34To make the tag
23:35And they may be
23:35The difference in this one
23:36There's Lieutenant
23:38James Earl Wright
23:39And so is JYD
23:41Out goes Wright
23:42Nice elevation there
23:45By Rich
23:45And there's a big
23:47Big Master Blaster
23:48Yeah but he's still
23:50Not off his feet
23:50Which makes him a threat
23:52Tommy Rich
23:55Vertical body press
23:56And Rich
23:57Morton and Dog
23:58Our winners
23:59Here are your winners
24:01The team of the
24:02Junkyard Dog
24:03Wildfire
24:04Tommy Rich
24:05And Ricky Morton
24:07They'll be in the Omni
24:08Tomorrow night
24:09At 7.30
24:10For the six man
24:12Tag team championship
24:13Of the world
24:14And we'll have more
24:14In a moment
24:15Wrestle War
24:18Wrestle War
24:18Wrestle War
24:21Will be held on February 24th
24:38In Phoenix, Arizona
24:397pm Eastern
24:414pm West Coast Time
24:43Call your local cable operator for availability.
24:47But, of course, as you know, Ric Flair heads up the horseman,
24:50but he's got his own problems right now,
24:53separate and alone with El Gigante.
24:55We're going to take a look at a montage of situations
24:58between world champion Ric Flair and El Gigante.
25:02Let's watch carefully.
25:04Nature boy Ric Flair,
25:06the legendary WCW World Heavyweight Champion
25:09who for seven times has held the gold,
25:11was expounding on his greatness.
25:13He has dominated wrestling like no other athlete,
25:16but he was about to receive a challenge
25:18from the biggest man in all of sports.
25:23Wait a second here.
25:25I want the bill.
25:29I want your bill.
25:33What you better do, my friend,
25:36is remember you're talking to Ric Flair.
25:40The world champion.
25:42At 7'7", 450 pounds, El Gigante,
25:45not impressed by the legendary status of nature boy Ric Flair.
25:49The giant returned to ringside
25:50and once again challenged nature boy Ric Flair
25:53to get in the ring and sell it once and for all.
25:56Remember the giant, 7'7", 450 pounds from Argentina.
26:00He wants the belt.
26:01And his opponents of parts unknown at 230 pounds,
26:05the Cruel Connection.
26:06You know what, Pete?
26:08You want me now?
26:09Come on, come on, come on!
26:12El Gigante in the ring now,
26:14pushing to Ric Flair, saying,
26:15come on, I'll take you on right now.
26:18And Flair is irate.
26:19There goes the Cruel Connection out of the ring,
26:21running around.
26:22Look at Flair ripping off his jewelry,
26:24ripping off his shirt.
26:25He's diving up under the apron now, Jim.
26:27The Cruel Connection wanted nothing to do
26:29with El Gigante flying brown.
26:31Now, wait a minute!
26:31They're the horsemen from behind.
26:33Big Sid Vicious, Barry Windham and Arndt Anderson.
26:36And now Flair is four-on-one in there.
26:39Flair chopping away at the big man.
26:42All four horsemen could not hurt the giant.
26:45And Ric Flair now is faced
26:47with the biggest challenge of his career.
26:50Nature boy Ric Flair must face
26:52seven-foot, seven-inch, 450-pound El Gigante
26:56for wrestling's richest prize,
26:58the WCW World Heavyweight Championship.
27:02It's obvious by what we have just seen
27:05that Ric Flair eventually is going to have to defend
27:07his title against El Gigante.
27:09How do you train against a man
27:11who is seven-foot-seven and 450 pounds,
27:14who has that massive hand that he uses
27:16as a giant claw?
27:17Well, only time will tell.
27:19Don't forget, Wrestle War 91
27:20will take place February 24th.
27:23Lance Russell and I will be bringing it to you
27:25on the Wrestling Hopline.
27:27And may I suggest,
27:28enjoy your Wrestle War 91 in your home.
27:31I want to tell you something.
27:42Teddy Long and Doom were very surprised
27:44that the Freebirds came to the ring
27:46with Diamond Dallas Page.
27:48And from what I hear,
27:49they may be blaming you for part of that police.
27:51Huh?
27:52Who's there?
27:53Doom.
27:54Ron Simmons.
27:54But you guys have big muscles.
27:56They were looking for you.
27:57Why would they do that?
27:57Like you set them up in the danger zone.
27:59I heard nothing to do with it.
28:00I'll call Teddy White.
28:01Teddy's going to do his way to the ring
28:02and get some old fans.
28:03Let's go back to the last Sunday's main event
28:05and see what happened
28:06when the Freebirds surprised Doom.
28:08There's a tag and here comes Michael Hayes.
28:21Hayes and now working over
28:23Axel Butchery,
28:25Diamond Dallas Page,
28:27who has pulled off a real coup here.
28:29He has indeed outsmarted
28:31few of the hour long
28:32to get this match
28:33between the Freebirds
28:35and Doom.
28:36And quite obviously,
28:37as we look over Long's shoulder,
28:39the Freebirds want
28:40the World Tag Team Championship.
28:43And we understand that
28:45no matter the outcome of this contest,
28:49it will be the Freebirds challenging Doom
28:51at the third annual
28:54Wrestle War Pay-Per-View
28:56on Sunday,
28:57February 24th.
28:59Big Ron Simmons in.
29:01Right hands on both
29:02Hayes and Garvin.
29:05Power slam by Simmons.
29:08Simmons has had his problems.
29:10It would seem
29:11with Reed and Long
29:12and their living large lifestyle.
29:14But apparently,
29:15all those problems
29:16have been
29:17taken care of.
29:18They're heading along
29:19with his shoe.
29:20He's got his shoe off.
29:22The referee going to
29:23Hayes is trying to
29:24bend him off here.
29:26Now,
29:26Nick Patrick's going to
29:27he caught him.
29:29He's calling for the belt.
29:32Doom will be disqualified.
29:33The Freebirds will win this match
29:35by disqualification.
29:41And there's the knee in the back.
29:43Here comes a double knee
29:44DDT
29:45by the Byrd.
29:47They just doubled DDT.
29:49That's off a three.
29:51This is really going to be
29:53a showdown
29:53at the Pay-Per-View
29:55in Phoenix on the 24th.
29:59The World Tag Team Championship
30:01will be decided
30:02between those two teams
30:03exclusively on Pay-Per-View
30:05one week from tomorrow night.
30:07Theodore Long
30:07really duked
30:08by Diamond Dallas Page.
30:10Where are you being?
30:11Did you find him?
30:11They told me he was here.
30:12I was just
30:12talking to him
30:14just a second ago
30:15and, you know,
30:15wait a minute.
30:16He went that away.
30:18He went that away.
30:19Hold on.
30:19He went that away.
30:20Paulie's getting
30:21all kinds of exercise
30:22and right now
30:24keep looking, Paulie.
30:25He's around the corner.
30:26Let's go to the ring
30:27and see Ron Simmons
30:28and Barry Wyndham.
30:30The following contest
30:32it is set for one fall.
30:34Introducing first
30:35in the ring
30:35from Sweet Quarter, Texas
30:37weighing 272 pounds
30:41Barry Wyndham.
30:43and ladies and gentlemen
30:46and ladies and gentlemen
30:50his opponent
30:51the godfather
30:54of professional wrestling
30:56Theodore R. Long
30:57presents
30:58one half
31:00of the team of doom
31:01with foot wing
31:03is
31:03Ron Simmons.
31:05And ladies and gentlemen
31:11this is going to be a showdown.
31:13You know,
31:13there's no love lost
31:14between the horsemen
31:14and doom
31:15and Teddy Long
31:16who has been making
31:17sporadic at best
31:18appearances on television
31:20is here
31:21for this big
31:22high stakes matchup.
31:30I missed him.
31:31Well, right there he is.
31:32He's right here
31:32at ringside now.
31:34I can't run down there
31:35and get him.
31:35I don't think you should.
31:36I'm out of breath.
31:37Boy, this was starting out
31:39almost like a street fight here.
31:42Power slam by Ron Simmons.
31:45And as we have said
31:46earlier in the broadcast
31:46it's been rumored
31:49that there are some problems
31:50with Simmons,
31:51Reed, and Long
31:52but I believe
31:53those problems
31:53have been rectified.
31:54It would seem so
31:55because all of them
31:57are here
31:58and a show of support here
32:01as this one-on-one contest
32:02is so ultimately important.
32:04Big power driver
32:05by Barry Windham
32:07on Ron Simmons.
32:09Oh, man.
32:09I tell you what
32:10this is going to be
32:11a war right here
32:12because the horsemen
32:13and Doom have had
32:13been at each other's throats
32:15for months and months
32:16and now with the Freebirds
32:17breeding down Doom's neck
32:18Doom really wants
32:20to eliminate
32:21the horsemen
32:21of the challenge
32:22and here's their chance
32:23today.
32:25Windham
32:26climbing the ladder
32:27outside.
32:28He may be taking
32:29a little long however
32:30indeed he has
32:31as Simmons is up.
32:34Powerful right
32:35right to the ribs
32:36and slams him
32:37off the top.
32:38Capacity crowd
32:39looks on at this showdown.
32:41Another right hand
32:42by Reed.
32:44Scoops him up
32:45like he was
32:46a junior heavyweight.
32:48And now Simmons
32:49goes to the top row.
32:53Ron Simmons
32:54and he took a little bit
32:56longer as well.
32:59Powerful right hand
33:00by Windham.
33:00It looks to me like
33:03Barry might hook him
33:04on a superplex.
33:06This could be it.
33:10Front face locking him.
33:12That's the first move.
33:13He's got him up
33:14and here it comes.
33:16There's the superplex
33:17by Windham
33:18on Ron Simmons.
33:19One, two,
33:20and Simmons
33:21taking a kick out.
33:22I have never,
33:23ever in my life
33:24seen anybody
33:25kick out a Barry
33:26Windham superplex.
33:28Ever.
33:29Anywhere.
33:31Right hand
33:32by Windham.
33:33Still on the attack.
33:34Still controlling the action.
33:36Oh!
33:37Simmons reverses
33:38the Irish whip
33:39and nails him
33:40with a close line.
33:41Come on!
33:42Boy, this Simmons
33:44is tough.
33:46Right hand
33:47almost took him
33:48all the way
33:48over the top.
33:50Could have got him
33:50disqualified perhaps.
33:53Another right hand
33:54by Simmons.
33:55This one's breaking
33:55down into just
33:57a street fight.
33:59I'm not so sure
34:00this environment
34:01is going to
34:01suddenly issue
34:02between Ron Simmons
34:03and Barry Windham,
34:04I can tell you that.
34:06Windham ran
34:07into the security rail.
34:11These two guys
34:12will be in
34:13that big Omni event
34:14tomorrow night
34:15in Atlanta,
34:167.30.
34:17Straight right hand
34:18by Windham
34:19as Simmons
34:19comes back in.
34:25Wham!
34:26He got him!
34:27This is it!
34:30And Windham
34:31kicked out.
34:32Holy...
34:33I have...
34:34This is unbelievable.
34:35I've never seen
34:36anybody kick out
34:36of that maneuver
34:37by Ron Simmons.
34:39Well, there's
34:39Teddy Long
34:40up on the apron
34:40distracting the referee.
34:42And Reed
34:43tried to close line
34:45Windham and he
34:46closed line
34:47Simmons instead.
34:48Windham,
34:49Simmons has been
34:50closed lined
34:50by his own
34:51partner inadvertently
34:52and Windham's
34:53going to win it.
34:55Here's your winner,
34:57Barry Windham!
34:59The big cannon
35:00from Reed
35:00misfired and
35:01nailed his own
35:02partner.
35:03Teddy Long's
35:04a little evil
35:05playing backfire.
35:06Oh, it most
35:06certainly did.
35:07Teddy Long
35:08needs to be
35:08at ringside
35:09a little more
35:09often with the
35:10world tag team
35:11champions.
35:12Barry Windham
35:12sucks on the
35:13butchery clothes
35:14like he levels
35:15his own
35:15partner,
35:15Ron Simmons.
35:17Hey, I think
35:17there still is
35:18trouble in the
35:19camp of doom.
35:20When we come
35:21back,
35:22Sting and the

37:50starting out against Sting.
37:51Mantell wrecking the eyes.
37:53He and Rogers
37:54a very underrated team.
37:56They're going to give
37:56Sting and Luger
37:57all they want here,
37:58I think.
37:59Oh, they certainly are.
38:00I mean, Mantell and Rogers
38:01are true ring veterans.
38:04I mean,
38:04here are two real classes.
38:06What in the world
38:07is going on here?
38:10Sting,
38:10great mobility
38:11taking Dutch Mantell
38:13up and over.
38:14Tonight on
38:15World Championship Wrestling,
38:16I will be talking
38:17to Sting and Lex Luger
38:18about their pending situation
38:20with Hanson and Vicious.
38:22We'll also see tonight
38:23at 6.05,
38:24Hanson and Vicious
38:25in tag team action.
38:32Rip Rogers,
38:33rather unique hairstyle.
38:35He's got
38:36pigtails and ponytails.
38:38I'm going to try that, Paul.
38:39That might...
38:40It looks good on you.
38:41My hair's not that long.
38:43Would you dye it blonde, though?
38:44No.
38:45No, I...
38:46I'll pass.
38:47You might go out
38:48with Rip if you do.
38:49I don't go out with men.
38:51You're talking about yourself now,
38:52not me.
38:53I'm...
38:53I'm very much like
38:55the female species.
38:59Rogers
39:00making up and over
39:02by Lex Luger,
39:03the U.S. heavyweight champion.
39:05Luger's been really
39:05training hard
39:06for his pending
39:06U.S. title matchup
39:08a week from tomorrow night
39:09at the third annual
39:10Wrestle War
39:11pay-per-view exclusive.
39:13Oh, he's going
39:13way up.
39:16Way up.
39:17Great crowd
39:18looking on here.
39:19Down to the rafters
39:20as Luger
39:21extends the arm.
39:23Magnificent strength,
39:24but...
39:25I'll tell you something,
39:26when he steps in the ring
39:27against Hanson and Vicious
39:29in the Omni
39:30tomorrow night,
39:30he's not going to have
39:31that size
39:32and strength advantage.
39:33They're going to test
39:34his whole part,
39:35I can tell you that.
39:35Oh, they certainly are,
39:36and here's the thing,
39:37he has to be very careful
39:38tomorrow night
39:39because if he gets hurt,
39:40he might lose the title
39:41at Wrestle War!
39:42Singer's flag.
39:45Planting Rogers
39:46in the corner.
39:48And now Sink
39:49with that Scorpion Deathlock
39:51got him locked in.
39:54Luger heads off
39:55Dutchman's tail,
39:56but this combination
39:57wins it.
39:58Ladies and gentlemen,
39:59here you are winners
40:00for purple package
40:01with Suga and Steve!
40:05They'll be on our broadcast
40:07tonight,
40:07at 6.05,
40:08as we're kicking off
40:09a great wrestling weekend
40:10here this morning,
40:11and of course,
40:12the big one is tomorrow night
40:13in the Omni.
40:14Oh, it most certainly is.
40:15Now, earlier in the show,
40:16we saw Nature Boy
40:18Rick Flair,
40:18the captain of his team,
40:20make his opponents
40:21submit and surrender.
40:23Sink comes in right here
40:24with a singer splash,
40:25it leads into
40:25the Scorpion Deathlock.
40:27Once again,
40:27we see it,
40:28submission or surrender,
40:30this all leads
40:31into the war game
40:32next Sunday
40:33from Phoenix, Arizona,
40:34exclusively on pay-per-view.
40:35Can this man make
40:37one of the four horsemen
40:39submit or surrender?
40:42If he gets the Scorpion Deathlock
40:43on them,
40:44he most certainly can.
40:45We'll talk more about that.
40:46As a matter of fact,
40:47we'll see Sid Vicious
40:48right after you hear this
40:49from the Wrestling Hotline.
40:50Introducing the new
40:55Wrestling Hotline.
40:56Tomei Shabani,
40:57Matt Watts with Steve Beverly,
40:59Missy Hyatt,
41:01Straight Up with Sting,
41:02Lex Luger,
41:04the Jim Ross Report,
41:06Paul E. Dangerously.
41:081-900-909-9900.
41:10The Wrestling Hotline,
41:12your main line to the stars.
41:13$2 first minute,
41:1445 cents each additional minute.
41:16Kids 18 and under
41:17obtain your parents' permission
41:18before calling.
41:191-900-909-9900.
41:22Dial it.
41:22The following contest,
41:24it is set for one fall.
41:26Introducing first,
41:27representing the horseman
41:29from anywhere he darn well pleases,
41:32321 pounds,
41:34Big Big Big Sam.
41:38That's why we have a moment
41:39before the big man
41:40of the horseman
41:41hits the ring.
41:41I do want to remind you that tomorrow night on the main event,
41:44I hope you'll join Missy Hyatt and yours freely
41:46because it's going to be the Z-Man versus Terry Taylor
41:49in a match order back by World Championship Wrestling.
41:53Ellie Gonte will be wrestling tomorrow night,
41:55plus Brad Armstrong, Bobby Eaton, Doom, and Paul Lee
41:58will be talking to the Freebirds and Diamond Dallas Page
42:01about their World Tag Team title matchup
42:03at the third annual WrestleWars.
42:06So we've got a great broadcast tomorrow night
42:07at 6.05 on the main event.
42:09Oh, this kid's in big, big trouble.
42:13I mean, Sid has already brought his EMT crew out with him to the ring.
42:18Oh, man, this great Diamond had better head for the hills
42:21and run for his life.
42:24Sid Vicious and Stan Hansen will be in tag team action,
42:26as we mentioned, tonight for the first time
42:29on World Championship Wrestling.
42:31And I'm sure that the EMTs will be joining us tonight
42:34because they'll be sorely needed, I've got a feeling.
42:37And I wonder if we could expect fireworks tonight.
42:40There's the powerbomb already.
42:42We know in the Army it's going to be
42:44Vicious and Hansen versus Sting and Luger.
42:47They're all going to be with us tonight on WCW.
42:49Sid Vicious!
42:51New people, look and learn.
42:55I told you, you're coming in the ring
42:57and you get figured out.
43:00You're going to be vicious.
43:02You're going to be vicious.
43:03You're going to be low.
43:04This is a good idea, Sid Vicious with Stan Hansen.
43:06He really needs someone to motivate him to be more vicious,
43:10get him more high-strung than he already is.
43:11It's a good idea.
43:13Who signed that tag team?
43:15I don't have any.
43:15I guess the championship committee, the promoters, I don't know.
43:18Well, then they're going to be responsible for a lot of hospital bills.
43:22I'll tell you that.
43:23And Vicious demolishing even more dominating
43:29than we've seen the last few weeks.
43:30Ray Diamond here.
43:33Boy, Vicious and Hansen.
43:34It may really be a bloodbath in the Army tomorrow night
43:37with Hansen and Vicious teaming up to take on Lex Luger and Sting.
43:43I'll talk to Sting and them tonight.
43:44Look at this.
43:45Some guys coming out just to try to help Ray Diamond
43:48and Hansen are Vicious attacking them.
43:51Well, they should mind their own business.
43:53Don't get in Sid's way.
43:55Four guys laid out.
43:57Want to make it five, Mr. Referee?
43:59How dominant can an individual be?
44:066'9", 3'33", in the War Games in Phoenix.
44:11His type of situation is to mission or surrender.
44:14This is totally uncalled for.
44:16He needs to be fined and suspended, I think.
44:18Well, go ahead.
44:19You take money out of his paycheck.
44:22WCW can do it, and they probably should.
44:23All right, now, you're bringing a ladder out here.
44:29What's the idea?
44:30Are you doing a moonlighting?
44:31Are you going to change a few bulbs?
44:32Are you a maintenance man now?
44:33I'm a funny guy today.
44:34The thing is, on February 24th,
44:36exclusively on pay-per-view at Wrestle War 91,
44:38the doom in the desert, huh?
44:39I'm going to do a live gang-a-zone with Eligante.
44:41Now, I'm from New York City.
44:43I know a lot of people who speak Spanish.
44:45Yes, senor.
44:46You know, it's not just like I can go up to Eligante and go,
44:48How's it going, amigo?
44:49Do you have your border card?
44:50Yes.
44:51How's it going, man?
44:52How's your mama?
44:52Yes.
44:53What's the deal here?
44:53The deal is that Eligante stands 7'7",
44:56so it's not going to be like I can just do that.
44:57I have to practice on getting the microphone way, way up there.
45:01But you're afraid of heights.
45:02I'm a big-time reporter.
45:03It's like Bernard Jor being in Baghdad.
45:05I got more guts than anybody you ever met.
45:07I'm going to climb up here right now and talk to Eligante, amigo.
45:11That's a pretty big ladder, you know.
45:12What's going on, the one?
45:13I bet you have to take it all the way up there.
45:15You know, I always thought you were afraid of heights, you know.
45:18You are afraid of heights.
45:19If I took the ladder like this, you'd thank you much.
45:22We'll see you Saturday night at 6.05.
