Kind of odd how a lower midcard WCW match was composed of two guys who would ultimately jump to the competition and become two of the biggest names in the business. One would become one of the greatest of all time.
It's always odd to see the very beginning of big-name wrestlers before the custom tights, entrance music, pyro, or catchphrases.

Wow. A face getting a pop, and a heel getting heat even though they're both pretty much unknown. That wasn't piped in, was it?

Terra Ryzing They did that? No wonder the arena looks like a talk show setting. God, the crowd is so gay!

WWF was at that time the premier company in all the world and one of the biggest names in the WWF at that time was Road Dogg. There by making him one of the biggest names in the business. You may not realize this but that was also the biggest money period for the wrestling industry ever. Even today I would wager that more folks would know who Road Dogg is over guys like Lashley or C.M. Punk.

LoL! No wonder why you never really see Bret dignify Triple H's hissyfits with a response.
He's probably just shaking his head and smiling like: "While I was headlining back-to-back WrestleManias, without marrying the boss' daughter, you were still Terra Ryzing."

There used to be this group during the attitude era... they were called D-Generation X. They, at one time, were the biggest draw in the company, right behind maybe steve austin and the rock... Now I know what you're thinking... "But We see D-Generation X on RAW quite a bit... And it's just two guys. Please Mr. Smoker, explain what you're talking about." Well I can do that for ya. You see, during the attitude era there were actually FOUR people in D-Generation X. Twwo of which you see today under the moniker (HHH and HBK)... And the other two are now known by the name "Voodoo Kin Mafia" in TNA. Those two men consisted of Road Dogg and "Mr. Ass" Billy Gunn. Those two men, dispite what you may think from seeing them now, were tremendously over... Sold TONS of merch... And even, believe it or not, would have fans who would recite their entire entrance promo word for word as they made their way to the ring. You couldn't go to a bar, club, wrestling fans home without hearing someone yell the words "OH YOU DIDN'T KNOW?!? YO ASS BETTER CAAAALLL SOMEBODDDDYYYYYYYYYY" This tag team has even been refered to as "one of the best tag teams in WWF history" by many many people. And I gurentee, you poll 100 people, wrestling fans AND non wrestling fans... And ask them who "Road Dogg" Jessie James is... and who CM Punk is... You're going to get FAR more people tell you who Road Dogg is. You see, in a tag team that are called by many "one of the best EVER in the WWF" you would indeed have to have TWO people... Right? I mean, a one person tag team? That's idiotic. So without Road Dogg, there would be no New Age Outlaws... Which officially makes him, at one time, one of the biggest names in the business. He could draw He sold merch People knew, and still know who he was He had good matches He was at the right place at the right time People enjoyed watching him wrestle AND cut a promo And he's, once again, a memorable character with a memorable catchphrase That would DEFINATELY qualify him as one of the biggest names in the business. Thank you for joining me for History Lesson. Tunr in next time when I explain why a figure four would actually hurt.

Got a question for you what does Honky Tonk Man, Hacksaw Jim Dugan and Jake the Snake have in common? That's right they were all mid carders, and everyone of them is a huge name in the wrestling business. I would even go as far as to say that the mid carders of the 80's and late 90's are for the most part all bigger names in wrestling than the main eventers of today.
