As we head into the final couple of months of World Championship Wrestling, the ‘Nature Boy’ Ric Flair and his “Magnificent 7” faction have been running roughshod on the roster. The group of veterans was supposed to form at the end of the Sin pay per view, but their debut was botched on account of Sid’s broken leg.
Adding some intrigue these days are the mysterious surveillance cameras capturing things in the back. In the ring, we have Big Poppa Pump, along with his freak and his big pole, defending that world title against Kevin Nash. Flair is ringside to make up the rules as they go along. The commissionership is on the line because of course it is, as Lance Storm takes on the Cat. The Dog Faced Gremlin Rick Steiner emerged from pay per view purgatory to defend his newly won United States championship against Dustin Rhodes, and DDP pulls double duty taking on Kanyon and then Double J.
This is not the worst show of all time, but it’s a little too little too late for the struggling promotion as we near the end of our trek through the final year and change of the company.
