Wrestling Observer Flashbacks 1992

Wrestling Observer Flashback – 05.25.92

This one was never uploaded into the newsletter archives at the time I was doing the 92 Flashbacks, but a reader kindly pointed out that it’s there now, so it’s time for a RETRO FLASHBACK. We’re through the looking glass, people.

Unfortunately William Regal wasn’t yet around at this point, because it’s time for…

Oh hey, remember how Nailz got fired last week but Dave wasn’t sure about the details at the time?

Well, now there’s details.

And there’s also something else brewing that might cause some trouble for them…

It’s time for the Christmas issue as we close in on the end of 1992 and the demise of Bill Watts.

But first!  The WWF’s new color commentator continues to be a hot topic of conversation…

After a year of shocking jumps back and forth, one of the most shocking comes this week, and sticks for the next 25 years, give or take…

Breaking away from all the Jinder Mahal talk to head back to 92!  Time for the Clash!

OK, look, if this issue teaches you any valuable lesson about Vince McMahon, it’s that steroids are bad and if you look like an abuser of them, don’t expect your push to continue much longer.

Wait, that didn’t really happen, did it?  Seriously?

Anyway…

OK, let’s see if I can get two of these out to fil the weekend slots before heading out for Easter weekend.

So, uh, Dave did not care for Halloween Havoc.  If you’re allergic to some ANGRY RANTING, I’d advise you to click somewhere else now.  This is gonna be entertaining.

OK, the world is in turmoil now that Bret has won the WWF title, so let’s get to the fallout!

Apparently there was a WWF TV taping right here in Saskatoon.  Wonder if anything big happened?

Speaking of Flashbacks, it’s a CONTENT DUMP on the WWE Network, as they added a massive amount of Mid-South Wrestling from 81-84 yesterday, PLUS NXT from 2012!  Holy crap!  I have stuff to review again!

Finally, some GOOD news for the beleaguered WWF, with a successful European tour!

Back to the Observers again!  Hopefully I can remember how to meme.

That feels a bit harsh.

Guys, I don’t know if we’ve talked about this before, but holy shit does WCW suck.  Let’s discuss it further.

Newsflash:  Sucks to be in WCW right now.  More on that after the break!

OK, since the last one was actually the September 14th issue, now we head back to the proper one, the September 8th issue, with the Summerslam review!

Hopefully Dave has some time to relax and take some downers after last week’s blitz of news delivered Crash TV-style.  And speaking of downer, it’s time for a State of the Union for WCW!

OK, Dave is back after three weeks of vacation and a shitload of wrestling shows in Japan, so there’s tons of stuff to catch up on.

I guarantee no one will be disappointed by this issue!

Last one for August before Dave goes on vacation for three weeks, apparently.  Thankfully there’s a pretty big news story to kick things off…
