dbrown+FollowRemembering WCW’s Fingerpoke of DoomHardcore wrestling fans, let’s talk about the infamous Fingerpoke of Doom on Nitro in ‘99. Hollywood Hogan just poked Big Sexy Nash, Nash took a dive, and the NWO was back together—but at what cost? Tony Schiavone, who called the action that night, recently called it “stupid” on his podcast. Many say this moment marked the beginning of the end for WCW. Was this the worst booking decision ever, or just misunderstood? #Sports #Wrestling #WCW10Share
Diamond Horton+FollowShockmaster’s Epic WCW Debut FailWrestling fans, who can forget the legendary Shockmaster debut at WCW’s Clash of the Champions XXIV? Sting hyped him as the ultimate surprise, but instead, Fred Ottman (aka Shockmaster) tripped through the wall, lost his glittery helmet, and instantly became a meme before memes existed. Even legends like Dusty Rhodes and Ric Flair couldn’t hold back their laughter. It’s wild how a botched entrance turned into one of wrestling’s most beloved moments! #Sports #Wrestling #WCW00Share
Stephanie Bailey+FollowBischoff’s Sabu Snub: Trust Issues in WCWInteresting insight from Bischoff on the Monday Night Wars era—turns out he never fully trusted the “Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal” Sabu during his short WCW stint. Despite Sabu’s ECW legend status, Bischoff admitted on 83 Weeks that it was Kevin Sullivan who pushed for Sabu’s signing, not him. Ultimately, Sabu’s reputation and a lowball offer led to his quick exit back to ECW. What do you think—was Bischoff right to pass on Sabu, or did WCW miss out on something special? #Sports #Wrestling #WCW00Share
