Why was there an article on Swat Kats in WCW Magazine? Yeah, Swat Kats was awesome, but its still out of place.

Yeah their magazine was amazing. I had a few issues as a kid and wore them out because of how much I loved reading them even though I had long since quit watching WCW.

Those jackets with Luger and Sting...oh my God. I can't believe that was ever non-ironically fashionable. Actually, no - I don't believe that it was to any extent.

"Seems as normal as your next-door neighbor." If my next-door neighbor looked like that, I'd be f***ing terrified. |

Speaking of, did they ever run a Captain Planet article in the magazine? Now that would've been something. |

Wait, change in direction? Huh? If you read the interview, the former editor talks about how it changed from trying to be a WCW imitation of WWE Magazine crossed with Raw Magazine to being more akin to Raw Magazine so that it became a more reader friendly, easier to follow publication. |

Got a kick out of Eck's words on Big Poppa Pump.

Sid still uses that same computer and monitor. Probably tweeted Naomi with it.

I vaguely remember one of the writers in that magazine was convinced he was an NWO member.

Sid was one of my favourites from a young age, and I completely remember having this issue. WCW Magazine was fantastic. Seems as good a time as any to share my various thoughts about WCW magazine none of which have ever warranted a thread being opened. Warning: here be boredom. 1. I became a Lash Leroux mark because of his Uncensored interview. 2. WCW magazine was so much better than WWF's it's ridiculous. Streets ahead. WCW magazine was brilliant even when WCW was terrible. 3. The Christmas photoshoot of Midajah, Torrie Wilson and Stacy Kiebler... holy f***balls. 4. That Scott Steiner interview was absolute insanity. The page was laid out which pictures of him doing different emotions, like laughing, looking angry and then looking very serious and thoughtful. I vividly remember almost the exact quote they pulled out to put next to Steiner looking thoughtful. 'I've just always enjoyed beating people up.' 5. Many of the jokes from the magazine were carried across onto WCW Worldwide, the international, poorly edited, three-months behind and at times straight up inaccurate and surreal WCW show that aired on Channel 5 sometimes. One of which was Scott Hudson's running gag about his wife being his best friend. 6. WCW magazine announced when Russo and Ferrara joined WCW in the magazine and ever since I've basically wondered why Russo gets so much credit/blame and Ferrara gets so little. 7. Mark Madden wrote an occasionally vaguely funny column in which he referenced how Lex Luger's body fat was down to 2% and the doctors said it was too low, so he offered to donate. He also noted how Goldberg was ashamed because at the time his home state still allowed cockfighting. 8. I got my first experience of DDP as an inspirational figure when someone wrote into the magazine and said that her special needs son completely came unglued whenever DDP was onscreen, and that he always wanted to see more of the 'bang man.' It was adorable and brought a tear to my eye. 9. On the exact same letters page was a letter from a fan about how Tony Schiavone was always really convincing at pretending he didn't know the booking ahead of time. |
