SMW television included a ***1/4 ladder match between Chris Candido and Tracy Smothers. Also on the show, Eddie Marlin sent in a taped promo inviting the losing team to the USWA and unbelievably, Vince McMahon did the same. Hearing Vince hype the SMW Bluegrass Brawl was a surreal site to behold. Also, Ricky Morton read a goodbye letter in an outstanding hype job where he says if they do not win this match, he will never wrestle again.
1995
WCW Uncensored aired on pay-per-view live from Tupelo, MS, in front of 5,782 fans. The show was a complete car wreck. The Blacktop Bully defeated Dustin Rhodes in a King of The Road match where the two actually fought in the back of an 18-wheeler. Dustin bled in the match during a time when TBS had a strict no-blood policy, so he was fired from WCW. Also on the show, Ric Flair appeared in drag during a Randy Savage-Avalanche match, attacking Savage from the crowd. The Nasty Boys faced Harlem Heat in a Texas Tornado match that made a sanitized attempt to copy the Tupelo Concession Stand Brawls of the early 80s and Hulk Hogan somehow defeated Vader in a strap match by dragging Ric Flair to all four corners. This show was also the debut of The Renegade, who was hyped as “The Ultimate Surprise”. WCW would not show his face for any length of time, perhaps in an attempt to hide that he was not really The Ultimate Warrior.
1999
CMLL gave us the blow-off to the ongoing El Hijo del Santo and Negro Casas feud with Bestia Salvaje and Scorpio Jr. in an outstanding ****1/2 match that was one of the best of 1999.
