Well, it has been reported that Arn's contract has been renewed, but did
it sound believable? You bet! Very convincing - mixing fact with a little
ol' wrestling fiction. Arn has one grievance with Papa Watts, but he "owes"
his injured knee to Jr. Watts. And in typical Horseman fashion, he promises
to get Watts Jr in a parking lot, airport, arena, anyplace USA. 

While these remarks were very believable, they were IMO pathetic, if only
because they give stature to Watts Jr. Here is a punk kid who can't walk and
spit at the same time being given credit for putting one of the greatest
wrestlers anywhere on the shelf. 

In a separate segment, Eric Bishof states that 1993 may be the year of 
Eric Watts. PUKE, Blah, Pleath, Pweh!! Much like the Dusty Rhodes prediction
that Bobby Eaton was destined for a title! 

The Kid keeps getting up - shows great courage, etc. etc. etc. His old coach
thinks he'll do well... How come Muhammad Asid from Libya doesn't have his
coach interviewed? Look how far M..A.. has come. Africa to the US. He 
is destined for greatness in a dream of Allah, but do we hear about him?
No, just Eric. Bullshit! Send Eric to Smokey Mt or Oregon until he gets
experience. Now the jerk is dropping his weight on an improperly STH, and
with his lack of technical skills, he may injure someone.  

There is just too much emphasis in WCW on E.Watts. With so much talent, it
is a travesty.

See above comments to determine likihood of any consistency. Besides, the 
gimmick is too worn. Unless Ric gets control of his programming, it is 
doubtful that he will be used consistently. Unlike with the NWA and later
the Crocketts. 

(Note: there was a black guy on WCW who is allegedly from No. Africa. Could 
have been good programming, but guess what! He jobbed.)

I was watching an old GWF repeat on ESPN yesterday as Craig and Baldy
were commentating on a match.  Scott Anthony and Eddie Gilbert came
down to the announcing table to help out with the color commentary.

After a few minutes, as Eddie "Hot Stuff" Gilbert was complimenting
one of the wrestlers on a move, he added "but not as good as Scotty
here would have done it."  Scott "The Palm Beach HeartThrob"
Anthony said "Thank you, Mr. Stuff."  Eddie replied "You're welcome,
Mr. Throb."

WCW needs to utilize Scotty Flamingo's interviewing talents and
color commentary talents more, and not worry about his lisp, which
is no worse than Steamboat's (who has been hit a few too many
times in the head.)

Granted, I can't back my brother on this one.  I found out he had bought the

Being Hispanic with some Indian blood in us, I guess he decided to act
really stupid during this match.  Luckily, he didn't do the Tomahawk chop.

Again, I disagree.  When I was 12 years old, and a true mark, I used to
go to MSG and the Spectrum in Philly and me and my pals would try to
catch when the guys would blade.

Do you really believe that marks don't know how the guys bleed?

When they had the first Slammies, it was pretty obvious that all of
the other singers were lip-synching and the band was just pretending
to play.  For Jimmy Hart, the band was still faking it, but his mike
was on and he was actually doing all of the singing.  I was impressed,
because I imagine he had to go out of his way to be allowed to really
sing since it would have been easier for everyone involved to have him
lip synch like the other "singers."

Well, Ric is highly revered because of his interview style, and the fact

As for Bam Bam Bigelow, have you ver seen him wrestle outside North America? 
He works harder than most of the super-heavyweights in this sport!

A quick question about this "movie" that I just saw on videotape.
The info on the case for the video has a 1985 copyright but
it seems that the matches had to come from an earlier time
(Dusty Rhodes actually appears to have a relatively normal
body size, that is, relative to the fat pig he became when
he entered the WFF).

My question is:  When did the matches in the tape take place?

Thanks in advance.

The key here is the syndies.  To be honest, I don't think 60% of the crowd

one syndie a week in Austin, on Saturday at 3 in the afternoon.  Bad time,

Aaaah, maybe so Guru, but there's a difference.  I did that for Flair because
I was close enough to take a picture of his response, which I did.  Plus, I
grew up watching Flair, and didn't truly appreciate him until a few years ago.
This was my first chance to see him since he wrestled Kerry Von Tornado in
a house show about 8 years ago, when I was mark rooting for the Modern Day

Anyone care to take a bet that ol' Lex Luger will take on some
new attributes. He could never talk very well, and always pointing
to the camera to make a point - oh well. 

Wonder if he is going to be the 1990's version of Gorgeous George?

Let's hope he doesn't get Sherrie as a "Valet". Wonder if he will
be primping himself with a mirror, etc. Then there can be a battle
between himself and Sean Michaels - right! 

I don't know how badly his elbow was mangled in the accident, but
have heard that it is completely "healed". Anyone know if this is 
really true?

So, what is Bobby Heenan's new job? Introducing big name wrestlers
and coaching them on their gimmicks, or what?

And why has Prime Time gone to 1 hour instead of 2. Lack of viewers?
Wouldn't this say something about their programming?

Oh, one thing WRT Luger - his workrate will probably go down. Yep.
Come on - don't look surprised!

You didn't even mention the AWA, where he resided '84-'86. He was a pretty
big heel there, and he held the tag titles with Steve "Mr. Electricity"
Regal by beating the Road Warriors(!) with help from Michael Hayes. His "It's
not my fault" schtick was in full force in Minnesota.
