Robocop?! WTF?! Can anyone who was watching WCW around that time period please provide a backstory to that? it was inducted into wrestlecrap. basically no one can figure out why robocop was there, he was just there for a while and then went away. it was a random movie plug, don't worry too much about it. Pretty much, it's not like they planned to use him after the show and have him beat Flair for the title or anything. As a kid,I marked for it though.

"Here comes Robocop, Bob!"
This quote should go down in the annals of Wrestlecrap.
Or the anals.

I think they should have had the part from the "ECW Invasion" Raw (2/24/97) where Vince calls Mikey Whipwreck "Mickey". Vince: "And Taz wins over Mickey Whipwreck." Paul: "MIKEY! It's MIKEY Whipwreck." Vince: "Beg your pardon, Mikey Whipwreck. Excuse me." Paul: "You should really watch the tapes Bruce Pritchard leaves on your desk." (Vince has a bad habit with names. He calls Mick Foley "Mike" and Mikey Whipwreck "Mickey". Just odd.) Oh, and the RoboCop thing was to plug the release of RoboCop 2, which sucked to no end. So, naturally, the angle had to suck too. It was foreshadowing.

32?
Does anyone else think these things have gotten old quicker than Ron Simmons' "Damn!"? I mean, the "botched moves to video game music" was funny the first few times, but they all kind of blend together now.

At least they cut down on the backyard crap they usually show.
And yes, that was Jim Ross and Bob Caudle (who usually hosted WCW Worldwide back then) that called the RoboCop angle.

Wow. How out of touch with the fans were WWE during D2D?
I could've booked a card in EWR, that went over better.

I love how JR and Bob sold Robocop as if he was there every week, rather than being a one-time thing.
