On top of that, the majority of people trained were already pro wrestlers when they started there. There are probably like 4 graduates who started their training there.
LEGITSHOOK.COM PRESENTS
WCW Monday Nitro 2/26/96
- Sting vs Big Bubba Rogers
- The Renegade vs Lex Luger
- Road Warriors vs Harlem Heat
- Arn Anderson/Ric Flair/The Taskmaster vs Hulk Hogan/Randy Savage/The Booty Man
Another in a string of uninteresting shows. You want to know all about The Booty Man? You see, Hulk planted him in the DoD as a mole. He was the inside man this entire time. Which means Hulk had Beefcake turn on him and join the DoD as a mole before the DoD was actually even formed. However, none of this was explained with a promo or anything. Mongo and Bischoff mentioned in it passing a few times. If there was a promo, it happened on Saturday Night.
They keep talking about the Cruiserweight Championship, yet haven't had any cruisers on in weeks. Sting/Lex are completely out of the main event angle, and now Sting is finally getting pissed at Lex for being a cheater and get them into shit with LOD. But with them out of the main event stuff, the main event angle has become Hulk and Friends vs All The Heels. The DoD and Horsemen are 100% on the same side. Macho and Hogan are 100% on the same side. All the intrigue that was making the top angle so interesting from September to January is completely gone. There is no Pillman type to stir the shit between the heel groups, and since Flair has the title, Hulk and Macho have nothing to fight over. What's really dumb is that the main angle should be about how personal Flair is making it with Macho, but the announcers talk it up like Hogan is the important one here. On top of that, Liz is TERRIBLE at everything besides looking hot. She can't cut a promo to save her life. She can't get physically involved. It took her about a minute and a half to handcuff Hulk with Hulk HELPING her. The angle would work just as well with Ric just saying he was banging her at home.
Stunt Granny was the highlight of the night.
