World Championship Wrestling

streamers.

I'm on my WCW TNA shit.

I'm rocking the same day as you still.

I'm rocking the same time.

No,

because that's the wrestler from WCW.

Yeah, no.

Well, you know, London and Paris is silver, right? I forgot.

And like as time moved forward, you know, that became less and less true, like as injuries and age kind of accrue.

But then they disappeared in like 1996 and never really returned until Brian Nobbs came back as like a singles wrestler in like late 99 in WCW in the hardcore division.

And I would say that like it's one of those things where like with a lot of 90s stuff, like the idea of like wrestle crap set in and like you come to believe that these wrestlers are terrible.

But then like the miracle of YouTube happens and like people are uploading endless job or squash matches and like.

think you do either.

I don't think you do either.

Yeah, no. Yeah, I asked because, you know, I know full well that, you know, WCW viewing was like sort of your bread and butter.

And I think like probably around the time you were getting into it, like to like 92 or so was probably around the time like I was starting to like fall out of it and get into like more like traditional tween things that would happen.

I've never heard of them either.

Apparently, they wrestled in WCW, but I've never heard of them.

And then there's the Harris twins.

And that's it.

Anywho.

Let's do American.

I didn't have any WCW ready for us.

So we went back to January 2nd of 1992.

Tori Wilson beat Stacey Keebler.

The Hardy Boys retained the WCW Tag Team Championships against Lance Storm and Hurricane.

Edge retained the Intercontinental Championship against Christian in a ladder match.

The Undertaker beat Booker T, and in the main event, Steve Austin retained the WWF World title against Kurt Angle and Rob Van Dam in a triple threat match.

But, with all due respect to Bubba, Devont, Jerry, Big, Tess, Kane, Tori, Stacy, Jeff, Matt, Lance, Hurricane, Edge, Christian, Taker, Booker, Steve, Kurt, and Rob Van Dam, None of them are why we're talking a WWF pay-per-view from 9,135 days ago.

Nope.

The reason we're discussing the 2001 version of No Mercy is the show's semi-main event, which saw Chris Jericho win his first World Heavyweight Championship by beating The Rock for the WCW world title in a bout with an 8.41 cage match rating and 4.5 stars from Meltzer.

And just 49 days later, Chris Jericho defeated both The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin

Plot and Guts has always been that.

And granted, I mean, going back to war games in WCW, it was always...

It was always the same thing,

but...

He's 99 though.

Like he's gurning and he's pulling stupid faces.

And he did have a WCW Nitro font on the shirt.

Legally distinct.

He just needs to lean up.

He needs to look like Hulk Hogan back in the WCW days after he took the steroids out, like technically.

You know what I mean? I'm sorry that I'm saying it, but he's going to have to – to cut.

I mean, but he has a potential.

Is it air Paris? No, because

that's the wrestler from WCW.

Yeah, no.

Well, you know, London and Paris is silver, right? I forgot.

Oh, shit.

He is also known for a Hulk Hogan lookalike in the early 90s where he presented WWF and WCW on Danish TV channel channel.

So, yeah, so that's so I was accurate.
