Not sure if I've ever seen the show in its entirety before, but for my money, Bossman/Vader is one of the best big man matches of all-time. Can't wait to see that one again.

This actually looks like a really good card. Can't go wrong with Flair and Steamboat, I'm sure Cactus/Payne vs. Nastys is an ugly brawl in a good way, and nothing strikes me as being bad at all.

That's cool as heck card, great match pairings and best talent avaible! I'm not sure if I've even seen this one, '88-'93 NWA/WCW events are probably the ones I remember mostly. ' will read more about later.

The match between The Boss (Man, is he big) and Vader kicked all kinds of ass. Just two bulls tossing one another around and beating the shit out of each other.

The tag match was fantastic, especially for its time.

Such a fun show.I loved Pillman/Regal back in the day and Harley takes bumps in matches that donโt even involve him.

What's a bunkhouse match and what is the international world title? I don't think I even remember hearing the name of that belt!

What's a bunkhouse match and what is the international world title? I don't think I even remember hearing the name of that belt! Looking it up... *A Bunkhouse Match sounds like a hardcore match with rustic weapons... I think? *This was in the fallout of WCW splitting from the NWA, they'd lost the rights to use the NWA name for the belt, but still had it physically (once Ric Flair had returned from his WWF run, having taken it with him there in 1991). Thus, this International belt is the "Big Gold" belt that everyone knows and loves, while the WCW World Heavyweight Championship and its original lineage was using a different design.

Usually in jeans and cowboy boots. At times you also bring in weapons. The WCW International World Heavyweight Championship was the name for the Big Gold Belt after WCW left the NWA for good in 1993. Funny enough before they slapped the WCW International name on it, it was just called the World Heavyweight Championship.

20 minutes til we start. Time to grab your snacks and beverage of choice, get into something comfy (like that's not what you've been wearing for 90% of the past few months), and round up your pets and/or significant others that you will be forcing to watch with you despite their protests.
