Let's Go to the Ring!

We're back with more spooky goodness! WCW got a deal on a wheel so it's time to spin for real! No, I didn't accidentally reupload our previous episode - WCW really decided that spinning a big wheel should be the focus of not one, but two Halloween shows! This time, Vader and Cactus Jack face the wheel of fate. Plus - Tony outdoes the Phantom of the Schiavone outfit, WCW has another go at a Sid Vicious vs. Sting match - surely they can't screw up the ending again - Dustin Rhodes and Steve Austin unsurprisingly have a great match, and astonishingly, no unsuspecting faces get booed against a Freebird for once! For all this, plus possibly WCW's greatest ever show opening...let's go to the ring!

The spooks - and Mad Max references - continue as we cover WCW Halloween Havoc 1992! WCW got a deal on a wheel so it's time to spin for real! Can Sting defeat Jake Roberts when he doesn't even know what match type he'll be competing in? Can Dustin Rhodes and Barry Windham overcome their differences to defeat Dr. Death Steve Williams and...Steve Williams? Can Rick Rude somehow win two title matches in a single night, or does he have a secret plan? Just how many faces will get booed against a Freebird this time? For all this, plus another wonderfully ridiculous WCW mini-movie...let's go to the ring!

We're back for another look at WCW's scariest series, Halloween Havoc! But are the scares from ghouls and ghosts...or match concepts and presentation ideas that should never have seen the light of day or a dark and stormy night? Sting and friends battle their way through the Chamber of Horrors - a match so haunted match props move on their own in ways that entirely demolish the concept! WCW proudly presents a whole bunch of mystery people in masks, only one of which is actually important, which also happens to be the one whose mask fits so badly you can see his quite familiar mustache! Plus - four exciting squash matches to blow through some airtime! A discussion of the uses of early 1990s computers in wrestling! Where is Bobby Eaton going with that pumpkin? Oh, and Ron Simmons has a truly star-making turn in one of WCW's best-produced matches ever. For all this and more...let's go to the ring!

Join us in the haunted arena for our look at the second WCW Halloween show, Halloween Havoc 1990! This year, WCW even realized they were making a Halloween show, so that's a plus! The Freebirds face another generic face tag team - can they get booed this time? Ric Flair joins Arn Anderson for tag team action! Lex Luger faces Stan Hansen! Sting faces Sid Vicious for the world title! This show should be pretty good, unless, say, WCW cuts four full matches, forgets to write an ending for a match, has somebody else dress as Sting seven years early for that, and/or has a low budget stage magician for their latest villain. You know, purely hypothetically. For hopefully none of that, let's go to the ring!

It's spooky season, so time to...wait, what do you mean it's December? Okay, we're a little behind - but still, it's time to take a look at WCW's most ghoulish and horrifying series...no, no, not Souled Out. It's Halloween Havoc! First up, Halloween Havoc 1989: Settling the Score, in which WCW puts on a largely normal wrestling pay-per-view and trusts in a fun intro video and some basic party store Halloween decorations to convince us it has a scary theme. The Steiners face a mysterious new team, the Road Warriors remind us of a favorite AWA promo, the Freebirds are apparently faces now (?), and somebody at WCW has been watching Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome, but can't do math. For all this, plus the Great Muta's firefighting demonstration, let's go to the ring!

It's finally time! Bob and Al have been looking forward to this show since the start of Let's Go to the Ring, and finally, at long last, it's time to take a look at Capital Combat: Return of Robocop. Yes, unbelievably enough, WCW actually did a tie-in pay-per-view for the film Robocop II, but rather than do something sane like get Peter Weller to show up as Peter Weller and guest referee a match or do some commentary or something, it instead turned out that the Man Called Robocop was really real and was best pals with the Man Called Sting. At least, he is until the midpoint of the show, after which everyone starts pretending that angle never happened and Robocop turns into El Gigante. Some other stuff probably happens too, like a whole load of really good tag matches and a title match between some guys named Lex Luger and Ric Flair, but let's face it, you're here for Robocop. To serve the public trust, protect the innocent, and uphold the law...let's go to the ring!
