Maybe this is a famous story, but I had never heard of the jobber who no-sold The Skyscrapers:
Supposedly, this was the dude's hometown and he didn't want to look bad.
Now I am completely fascinated as I would think Spivey (maybe Sid as well) would have punched his head into orbit when they got back to the locker room.

Sid infamously didn't know what was happening deep into the shoot portion of the match

As far as I've read/heard, the beating didn't stop in and around the ring but extended to the locker room. Scary enough to be beaten up by Spivey (and Sid) on camera.
The jobber looks like The Disciple with Hogan's hairline.

It's depressing how I was impressed that the Skyscrapers made sure the other jobber just stayed out of the way and was ignored.

The other jobber was smarter than the guy who would bump and stand right back up.

Too bad this dude wasn’t booked against the Steiners that night. What a clown.

I love that dude chose to do this with Dan Spivey, a dude who was known for beating the shit out of people who crossed him almost just as much as he was for his wrestling 😭

It's said in the video linked in the OP, but how clueless and/or lazy was WCW back then for even letting this air? Had this happened in the WWF, no one would have ever seen it and would've been an internet rumor for years.

I'm guessing this guy was blackballed afterward.
Hope it was worth it.

Was taking the double powerbomb ass-first part of the no sell or a botch? Because that looked rough as hell.

Imagine being in there with two dudes that are 6’8” 300+ pounds and wanting to no sell them so you don’t look bad in your hometown. If anything the Skyscrapers should have really beat that ass in the ring.
