Superbrawl 1 was the first Superbrawl event produced by World Championship Wrestling which took place on 19th May 1991

## Background

The main match heading into the show is Ric Flair defending his WCW Heaviweight Championship against Dustin Rhodes. Dustin debuted at Saturday Night 95 when Flair asked who was his next challenger, he was introduced as Dusty Rhodes' son, Ric Flair always blamed Dusty Rhodes for destroying what was the former WCW, JCP with his ownership decisions and he's not gonna let his "new generation" do the same to WCW, Dusty Rhodes has recently left WWF and Dustin has teased that he's coming back by hitting Flair with his finisher and doing the same type of promos

Sting and Ric Flair won the WCW Tag Team Championships at Saturday Night 100 after Flair cheated to win, Sting was getting huge fan support and decided the cheating was enough and scorpion death dropped Flair leaving Four Horsemen, since then Sting has aligned with the first man who was kicked out of Four Horsemen, Barry Windham and they'll be facing the tag team of Four Horsemen, which is now only Three Horsemen, The Enforcers Larry Zbyszko and Arn Anderson

Since Sting betrayed Flair right after their tag title win, the tag titles were vacated a week later and tonight they're up to grabs in a fatal 4 way with the best teams WCW has to offer: Doom, Fabulous Freebirds, Steiner Brothers and Midnight Express

At Starrcade, Masa Saito introduced the New Japan Legends: Masahiro Chono, Hiroshi Hase, The Great Muta and Kensuke Sasaki as part of the NJPW-WCW deal but they immediatly attacked Saito turning heel, the Starrcade Countdown hit and Jushin Liger debuted in WCW having a match against Muta for the IWGP Junior Championship, since then New Japan Legends have targeted Liger, Liger defeated Kensuke Sasaki at Wrestlewar 1991 and tonight he'll be facing Hiroshi Hase

Since Saturday Night 93, Dick Slater has approached Tommy Rich saying that they're both jobbers but if they join forces, they can be so much more, Tommy Rich had just won 1 match and was feeling cocky so he attacked Slater refusing to be addressed as a jobber, the attacks continued throught the weeks with Eddie Gilbert having a talkshow between them and calling them both a jobber to which they teamed up on him, at Saturday Night 100 Rich and Slater teamed to defeat Eddie Gilbert but Rich still attacked him, tonight they'll face each other in a singles match
