WCW Sunday {Pro} - Sunday, 11/02/97
- Show opens with Hogan's challenge on Nitro to Sting to sign the contract at Hollywood's "Premier Party" for his lame movie.
- Afterwards, Larry Zbyszko tells Scott Hall that he is going to send him to Larry-Land, just like he did ten years ago. Larry still has the contract, and still wants Hall to sign it.
- On to the show...
- Public Enemy defeats Johnny Boone and David Heath after a Drive-By.
- The Legend on Hall: "If he has any guts, I'm gonna hand them to him on a silver platter!"
- Heath and Boone get the early advantage.
- They are still showing matches with Mark Curtis refereeing.
- Chants of "Table!"
- Rocco Roc is asking for trouble, seriously. He wrestled this match with both earrings in, and they are hoops, easily able to be ripped out with a finger.
- Wow, Boone and Heath actually controlled this match. PE let them work, not that it was a good thing.
- After PE wins, they go into the crowd and dance with their Homeboys.
- This Week in WCW Motorsports. Kinda pointless, and I am a NASCAR fan, so that says a lot.
- Hey Bill, apparently this month's WCW magazine has a feature on Arn Anderson and his career.
- Morbid thought of the day: If we do happen to get into a war soon, and with Hussein acting up in Iraq again it's possible, and it ended up becoming World War III, will WCW change the name of the pay-per-view to World War IV? And would the Horsemen be back? I know, disgusting.
- A Flair/Hennig match has already been announced for WWIII. I say after this last ppv, Flair wins this one.
- Dave Taylor pins Lenny Lane with a move called a Crumpet.
- "Dave Taylor is a very talented wrestler." --Scott Hudson. Uhhhh, no!
- Taylor must eat lunch with Steve Regal everyday because he's getting a little chunky, also.
- Chants of "USA!"
- Zbyszko then says "Come on Lane, you're battling for your country now!" Lane then gets decked by Taylor. "Oooooooo, you left yourself wide open!"
- The Crumpet is nothing more than a chicken wing suplex, and instead of bridging to get the pin, Taylor rolls up on the victim.
- Snickers replay: Larry again: "This guy's not gonna be chewing Snickers with a couple more of those shots!"
- The Villanos defeat the Southern Posse with a pin.
- Man, I still can't get over that hairy guy from the Southern Posse! That's gross! At least wear a shirt!
- Villanos were wrestling as faces.
- Hudson and Zbyszko talk about the royal rumble at WWIII, then Larry asks, "How many Luchadores can we get in? There's only room for 60."
- "Luchadores? Now Tenay's got me saying that."
- Zbyszko again: "It's the greatest feeling in the world when you feel someone's bones cracking and breaking." I must say that I actually agree with Hudson on one thing, and that was his response to that comment: "Yikes, I'll take your word for that one."
- One of the Villanos was about to be pinned (I couldn't tell, and it wasn't mentioned who), then the other one jumps onto the top rope and lands on the Posse guy with his knee. As the other SP was coming in, the Villanos switched, and got the pins on the befallen SP.
- Highlights of the contract signing between Hogan and Sting, and reruns of events on Nitro leading up to it. The contract signing was very cheesey. If you missed it (I did), it looked like it was a mix between a boxing promotional interview, and a White House press conference.
- Isn't it funny how every month there are two different "biggest names in wrestling"? Last month was Piper and Hogan. Now it's Sting and Hogan.
- Steve "Mongo" McMichael pins Jumpin' Joey Maggs with his Tombstone Piledriver.
- Just thought I'd say one thing: "Tombstone Pizza, Pierre!" Email if you don't understand. No biggie.
- Old show (obviously). Mongo comes out to Horseman music.
- Uh, this is a main event? Yeah, compared to watching roaches in your cereal bowl.
- This is a boring match. I believe it's the first time I have seen Maggs wrestle, and hopefully I don't have to see too much more of it. They both are boring.
- Wouldn't it be appropriate if Mongo used a Bear Hug as his finisher?
- That's it, see you next week!
