General Chit-Chat Thread: A New Beginning

It's also the match where Men on a Mission and the Bushwhackers were Doinks

yeah the Doink match without Doink in it, atrocious

 

[Barry Poppins]

I don’t remember them both being in WCW at the same time

It was pretty brief but both were around, except Norman got an actual push while Cactus Jack's run in WCW was him getting a backdoor contract. Jim Cornette tells the story of how he basically got Foley into WCW the first time

 

[Barry Poppins]

The booking committee of Flair and co. couldn't hire people, but they could bring in job guys

 

[Chris]

They had a match on PPV apparently, I feel like I vaguely remember it

 

[Barry Poppins]

So Cornette and JR convinced Flair to keep bringing in Cactus to do jobs, but after every job match, Foley would attack his partner week after week. So Cactus literally got over by being a crazy job guy.

It's also the same run where Foley did that insane bump at Clash of the Champions X in the match against Mil Mascaras, a flat-back bump off the apron

wrestle war 1990, Norman won lol I think this was actually well before Cactus signed, he was still Cactus Jack Manson

That was around the first time I noticed Flair shitting himself during a match. It was vs Flyin Brian

 

[R-Troop]

Bastion booger is just gross lol the survivor series match where there's just greasy chicken all over the ring is the fucking worst

1993 a survivor Series. Him, Headshrinkers and someone else vs 4 Doinks. It was so stupid. But as an 8 year old when it happened it was fun.

It was Bam Bam because Bam Bam was in a feud with the Ray Apollo Doink

 

[Chris]

Yeah I never cared enough to look it up but I assume Doink got a last minute injury and couldn't do the match himself or something bc I remember that being really awkward that it was just 4 other people Bigelow wasn't feuding with lol

 

[King Kong Booty]

I used to record every show on VHS and was watching and he got rolled up and his ass was pointed towards the camera and it was a little dookie spot

 

[King Kong Booty]

I rewound it to make sure that’s what I thought I was

 

[Barry Poppins]

Speaking of, man, if Jim Herd wasn't a giant moron, Pillman and Eaton would have been major stars for WCW in the early 90s.
