Tonight, WCW World Champion Ric Flair (with Arn Anderson) defends his title against THE GIANT (with Kevin Sullivan)… but don’t get too excited, kids. This one ends in a schmozz where Arn Anderson hits Giant with a chair and Giant thinks Sullivan did it and he gets the guzzle. Giant would eventually win the title a month later, but in the meantime… well…
I’ll be honest; this Nitro didn’t do much for me. Macho Man got a win over Fit Finlay, Konnan retained his US title over the masked man known only as Mister JL, and Sting and Luger retained their tag titles over the AMERICAN MALES, but the matches were just kinda, sorta “meh.” Honestly, the Saturday Night show that they were hyping up – featuring a Finley/Bobby Eaton match – sounds more exciting than the Nitro show that was put up against RAW, which featured *checks notes* Shawn Michaels defeating Leif Cassidy, Hunter Hearst Helmsley defeating Aldo Montoya, and the main event of Ahmed Johnson and Owen Hart going to a double DQ finish.
Fucking riveting television.
Next.
