Things have been pretty negative for most of 1991 thus far, so it’s time for something POSITIVE!  Dave presents the Best of 1991 thus far.

OK, OK, look, I know things are looking pretty messed up for the WWF right now, but DON’T PANIC.  Vince has this steroid testing thing on lockdown, and Hulk Hogan is going to go on Arsenio Hall’s show and clear EVERYTHING up, sharpish.

Would either of those people ever lie to you?

Well, Flair is fired, but there’s still a PPV to look forward to this week.  How bad could it be?

It’s the Observer issue so huge that Dave has to post it to the archives TWICE to make sure!

So yeah, Flair got fired, let’s get back into it!

HO HO HO, MERRY CHRISTMAS!  And it’s time for the best Christmas present that I could ever present to you:  One of the most historic issues of the Observer EVER. 

When we last left off, Ric Flair and Jim Herd were in negotiations for a contract extension, and it wasn’t going very well.  Herd gave Flair 30 days notice as a negotiating tactic, and well…

It’s the two biggest issues of the Observer of the year!  Maybe two of the biggest ever!  My Christmas gift to you all.

Bye, Edwin.  Hopefully Cleveland is good to you.

Vince was probably feeling pretty good at this point.  Sid was signed and debuted to a big pop, WCW was self-destructing before his eyes, and the Hogan-Slaughter program was doing pretty good business.  Yup, things were pretty good and 1991 was shaping up to be a fine year for wrestling and the WWF in particular.

Oh, except for one, little, teensy tiny legal matter.  I don’t think it’ll have any direct affect on the promotion, because why would it?  Besides, he’s a DOCTOR.  He writes prescriptions and everything.  You may have heard of him.

Get used to it, because we’re going to be hearing a LOT about Dr. George Zahorian for the next year or so.

OK, now we’ve got some stuff going on, with two of the biggest stories in HISTORY about to break.

But first, Sid…

It’s the perfect lead-in to Roadblock: End of the Line!  A trip back to 25 years ago with nothing much going on!

Let’s see if I can finish this before I fall asleep on the couch like an old man.  We’ll make a game of it!

Last week wasn’t very meme-worthy, so let’s see if our luck is better this time.  Maybe Kerry Von Erich will say something stupid!

As STAR-RATE-GATE tears the blog apart on the Superbrawl ‘91 rant, I guess Dave takes a week off or something.  Unless the date is wrong and it’s actually May 13 like would make sense.

T-minus two months until WCW implodes.  Let’s find out how we get there!

This week, a special Tiger Mask retrospective issue!  Must be a slow news week.

Well, I’m sure we’re all glad to hear that Sid Vicious came to his senses and agreed to stay with WCW after all.

Hold on, I’m getting an update…

Previously on the Flashback… http://blogofdoom.com/index.php/2016/12/09/wrestling-observer-flashback-04-08-91/

Wait a minute, it appears that Dave’s proclamations about Sid Vicious leaving WCW may have been premature.  Let’s explore this.

OK, Wrestlemania is behind us, so now the wrestling world can move on and everyone will remember 1991 as the best year ever, right?

THIS IS IT!  DOUBLE-SIZED SHOCKER!

Well, I mean, not THAT shocking.  We mostly know what’s coming up.  But what if Barry Allen went back in time and changed the past again?  Sgt. Slaughter might have retained the title because Barry just had to go back and save his mom yet again!  Dougie might be unbanned!  I can’t live in this crazy Flashpoint universe!

Oh hi!  Miss me?
