well, being one of the first to say the third guy is Hogan, i can know
gloat...his interview was good, as was all the debris thrown in the ring...
Tony C. had the quote of the night: "Hogan, go to hell!!!!"...
personally, i hope this turns out not to be a big screw job in the end;
i can see no better way for Hogan to go out of the business the same way
he came in...as a heel.
the best part of the night came when that marke marked out too much,
climbed onto the ring and was smacked by Nash who then put the boots to 'em
overall, though, the rest of the card was pretty lackluster...

The mark couldn't accept the fact that Hulkamania is over ... I agree
that was the best part of the night. Doug Dillenger had his big chance
and he let the WCW down ... he was out of position.

Lackluster?I'd like to know what the fuck were you watching,Psicosis v
Misterio was GREAT and Disco vs Malenko was TREMENDOUS.I dont even

If you believe that was a real fan, then you are the biggest mark of all!

Who, the poster or the fan? I remember fans scaling cages to get at
wrestlers. When Ric Flair was ripping Jimmy Garvin's knee apart in '86,
some guy tried to climb the cage. It has happened before.

Come again? Rey Misterio and Psicosis give you a world-class lucha-style
match with some of the most amazing moves ever seen on non-Hispanic
television and you call that lackluster? IMHO the only really lame
matches on the card were Duggan-Page and Tenta-Bubba. Flair's match was
fair at best since his style predictably didn't mesh well with Konnan's.
Mongo was impressive to me considering he was wrestling his first singles
match. All the other matches rocked. Disco vs. Malenko was in
particular a surprise, giving us a great match where a lot of people had
been predicting disaster.

Can someone offer a little more detail about the supposed fan who jumped
into the ring onto to be stomped on by Nash? I guess I'm one of the few
who didn't see it, and I've been wondering if the incident might somehow
be part of the angle.

Pro wrestling announcers aren't true announcers. They are narrators. They
only mention over the air what they are supposed to -- what's part of the
script. They *never* mention anything outside the script. How often have
we seen obvious things go on in and around the ring and the announcers
don't say a thing about them? Fact is, if an announcer brings it up, it's
part of the show.

Two more things about the fat fan. First of all, if this guy wasn't a
mark, Nash wouldn't have attacked him -- he would have backed off because
any fan that stupid would also be stupid enough to have a knife or a gun.
Secondly, if it was a true mark running wild, Nash would have backed off
because he and WCW could have been sued by the fan if the attack on him
by The Outsiders was real. The guy was a plant, and lots of people fell
for it, so even that part of the show was successful.

Wasn't the "fat fan" who ran in on BatB also sitting ringside at
the July 8 Nitro?
He was wearing a dark blue tee shirt and was sitting next to
the end by a corner post, in a floor-level chair.

Say WHAT?

A) I'd like to see that law passed.

B) I'd like to see that law stand up to even one challenge.

C) I'd like to see it happen, period.

but

D) It won't. That might, accent on MIGHT, be a law in Texas, home of the
justifiable homicide, but ain't no way in hell it's a law everywhere.

Daytona Beach (BATB) is only about an hour from Orlando (Nitro MGM).
Maybe the dude lives around here. Or maybe he's going to join up with

Back in 70's during a Pittsburg Steelers game a fan ran onto the field during
the game. Jack Lambert knocked the snot out of the guy. No charges were
ever pressed because Lambert was acting in self-defence. When somebody jumps
into the ring or the field they putting the athelete/performer in jeapordy,
and that athelete has a right to defend themselves security or no security.

I seem to remember a game on an NFL highlights vid I bought here in the UK, about
their Hardest hitters, and a player made a pretty vicious tackle on a fan who ran
onto the pitch.

Can't remember the name, but the player didn't get charged for assault, but was
fined by the NFL.

IF it was real, Hall and Nash could claim they were acting in self-defence, after
all if the guy had a knife ...

It's not legal, but I don't think that Nash would be convicted if he
did beat a real crazed mark. For one, if a crazed mark was running
into the ring and was obviously intending to attack a heel, I think
the heel would have no problem in court pleading self defense.

I was at a match in, I think it was the 1960s (do I date
myself), with the Graham brothers verses someone. They were
slugging it out, and suddenly a crazed fan jumped into the
ring and started beating the Grahams to a pulp. Real blood was
flowing all over until he was stopped. He did more damage in
the two minutes he was in the ring than the wrestlers had in
the 20 minute slugging match. The wrestlers were so startled
that it took a couple of minutes before the other wrestlers
reacted and came to the Grahams aid. - Steve

You guys can't be serious? Have you watched a tape of this? If it was a
plant then they must have payed the guy a whole hell of a lot of money
because he got fucked up. Have you watched Scott stomp on him in slow
motion? He is REALLY stomping on his head. Not everything in wrestling is
a work and Hogan upset a lot of marks that night for turning. Now we smart
marks think it's the coolest think since sliced bread. I'm tellin' ya
right now that guy was really a fan, and really got the shit kicked out of
him.

Best guess would be due to outside interference by Goldust. After all, he'd
just be returning the favour done him by the Kid back when he took the belt
from Razor.

Then there was a piece in SI a few years ago on this stuff.

1) How over 90 fans in Japan died of heart attacks during Freddie Blassie
matches. "I wanted to get to 100, and I failed."

2) How one of the Moondogs (Spot, I believe) got slashed by a fan.
Said Moondog, "You don't want to get spayed if you can help it."
or something like that.

It was a plant... Good pro-wrestlers practice making shots look
real... Even in slo-mo.

And even if the shots were real, the cover of Pantera's "Vulgar
Display of Power" comes to mind. Some guy was paid $10 a shot to get
punched in the face so it could be photographed. The guy went home
with $300 in his pocket... Do the math if you like, but it all comes
down to the same conclusion: The guy got the shit beat out of him
voluntarily. There are people out there that are willing to get beaten
as long as they get enough money and enough fame.

Sure, it happens, but based on WCW's recent "shoot-imitations", I
doubt that it was a real fan or a real beating. If it WAS real, you'd
see a lot more security, and a lot more billy club shots.

Also, if it WAS real, we wouldn't be seeing it in slo-mo.

Actually, this took place in Quebec City, and the genius tried to run across
the ice to get at the bench. But yes, Rob Ray was one-man clubberin'
machine when the fan went at him.

I've been reading a lot posted here about that mark that jumped in the
ring when Hogan turned. Hall and Nash rightfully put the boots to this
guy.

I remember about 5 years ago at a TV taping in Ottawa, during a 40 man
battle royal, some card carrying Mensa member decided he was going to
jump into the frey. Well damned if Skinner Steve Keirn didn't go over
and start stomping the marks face in. Remember the workman's boots
Skinner wore?

I recently worked a show in Ontario (I'm a wrestler on the indies) and
while colour commentating, some little drunk frenchmen decided to attack
one of the wrestlers in a tag team match. I had to leave the broadcast
booth to go down to the ring and stop the wrestler from really attacking
the fan. It's nice to know we can still draw this kind of heat, but I
have to wonder what goes thru a fans mind who is about to attack a
wrestler. Quite stupid.

It's unwritten law in the biz that if a fan jumps in, you forget who
you're feuding with and who you're not, and you get the fan out of the
ring...even if it means hurting him. A lot of the wrestlers I know still
wear blades (I don't) for this very reason....if a mark jumps in, gig him
right in the face. Nice industry I choose to associate myself with eh?
I sometimes wonder why....

Rightfully is right. If anybody's that fucking stupid, then they
deserve to get thumped a tad.
