PWD PWD 1209: Vegas Hangover

[My Spot]

I wish more people realized that Dusty and Flair are just as responsible (if not moreso) as Bischoff and Hogan were for holding Austin back in WCW.

I like this World Tour gimmick, matches from different buildings all over this scattered out dusty little rock we call home

I talked about it before but I realty love that arena in Paris where the Hulk Hogan vs Macho Man Randy Savage match takes place with the covered tunnel entrance way and the very first use of pyro in WWF history

"No, babeh, that's for somebody else."

I bet this dude lives out in your hood somewhere because he posts a lot of Cow Palace stuff like this.

My guess is Tony Garea because it kinda looks like Dan Severn and he was only like 45 at the time and a road agent.

Allan Blackstock lives in England

Thats definitely not Garea, maybe he was just some French guy but the way Monsoon takes a shot at them made me think he's a road agent

That is such a beautiful photo, though

Maybe it is Garea and you're ribbing me.

Nope, not Garea.

When the Mega Powers exploded. I think that's Dick Ebersol all the way on the right.

Yea, thats Ebersol, is that JJ Dillon next to him?

 

[Pittie Petey]

I know JJ worked in the office for WWF but its just so weird for me to see him in there with that crowd cause my memories of him are so strongly associated with JCP and the NWA

Yep.

Jesus, that's a beautiful woman!

That's such a modern looking show for its time. Not just the pyro but the spot lights and lighting of the arena looks like something 10 years later.

And, man, everything is just perfect. I always loved how Savage didnt just stand in the corner quietly and wait for his opponent. The standing on the ropes and watching their entrance like he can't wait another second to get it on is amazing. Then he tells Hogan to come on, Hogan does and he immediately high tails it out of the ring

@Stargazer Rex I think the Hulkster is peaking on his cycle here. Might be the best shape I've seen him in the Hulkamania run. Excellent definition in the arms and shoulders with a hint of abs!

"Who does her makeup, Dracula?!"

Same with Schiavone calling these 88 and 89 shows. I don't like it!

Weird realizing that Bruce was 26 years old here. Basically just a kid in the business and he was already a 15 year vet

Same with Corny (only 28) and Heyman (only 24).
