Wrestling Observer Flashback–08.03.92

By Scott Keith on 20th March 2017

Hey, it’s another month with missing issues, as Dave has this one and the August 10 one on the site, and then it skips to September.

This really does appear to be a slow news week judging by the headlines.  Hopefully there’s lots of meme-worthy stuff to fill 2000 words.

Big Brother Canada is BACK, plus I’ve got Lucha Underground to binge and rant on via Netflix now, so my weeks are PACKED.  But for you, the little people, I can still find time for an Observer Flashback.

Time to bash the Bash…

DO YOU LOVE THE OMNI YET?  YOU GODDAMN BETTER OR BILL WATTS WILL COME TO YOUR HOUSE AND PUT HIS BOOT DOWN YOUR THROAT, DAMMIT!

Or so it seems like.

I finally watched “The Revenant” on Sunday and Leo was well deserving of his Oscar, but someone please tell me there’s a YouTube video where someone overlaid JR going “STOP THE DAMN MATCH” during the bear scene?  Because I sure as hell was just about yelling it at the TV myself.

And although not quite as dramatic as a bear mauling this week, it’s still a sad start to the Flashback this week, with a notable death…

We’ve got Beach Blast AND Clash of the Champions, so it’s a packed week of mid-level WCW goodness.  But first, Summerslam tickets are doing pretty good.

(Minor note about the posting time, since it’s become a thing lately:  We don’t celebrate Daylight Savings Time here in Saskatchewan, so it’ll be either an hour later or earlier depending on where you are, because I can never keep track.  Regardless, I’ll continue posting at 6:00 AM my time.  Except for this morning, because it’s Sunday and I felt like sleeping in.)

Wrestling Observer Flashback–06.22.92

By Scott Keith on 10th March 2017

Bah, once again moving the Flashback to the afternoon is a flop and it didn’t even beat the Daily Update.  That hurts.  I might as well be TNA now.

Previously on the Flashback (since not many people read it): http://blogofdoom.com/index.php/2017/03/09/wrestling-observer-flashback-06-15-92/

It’s time for the WBF PPV!  What could possibly go wrong?

Trying these in the afternoon again because the blog is always SUPER dead after lunchtime and this will hopefully space out the content a bit more.

Bill Watts continues to make friends everywhere in this issue!

Wrestling Observer Flashback–06.01.92

By Scott Keith on 7th March 2017

So apparently the WrestleWar 92 issue (05/25/92) is missing from the F4WOnline.com archives, and any other sources I’ve checked, so we’re skipping ahead a week.  Spoiler:  Dave gives WarGames ***** again this year.

Apologies for missing yesterday, but Google suddenly dropped all support for the Adsense plugin for WordPress and didn’t do a very good job of making the replacement system actually WORK for WordPress.  And since this is a major chunk of my livelihood, it was kind of a big priority to figure out why the hell I couldn’t get it to work properly.  Thankfully, I did, because I’m something of a genius and humble to boot.

Oh hey, speaking of people who are both something of a genius and humble, WCW did something they’d quickly regret this week…

Wrestling Observer Flashback–05.11.92

OK, I missed yesterday!  I’m sorry!  I was watching John Wick on Netflix and it was FUCKING AWESOME and these need about two hours to do, so I had to make a choice.  I REGRET NOTHING.

Also, apparently I’m under some kind of confidentiality thing on the details, but Google basically informed me out of nowhere yesterday that they’re shutting down the mobile site experiment I was a part of, which meant I had to go in and change all my DNS name servers back and it was a PAIN IN MY ASS.  WordPress and Jetpack started freaking out and then I guess there was a bunch of people who couldn’t access the site at various points and if you’ve never had the pleasure of trying to do troubleshooting on a WordPress site from a cell phone while doing other stuff, well, NOT RECOMMENDED.  There’s important reasons why I just let guys like Sean Shannon and Jeremy Botter handle all the back-end webmaster stuff during the Rantsylvania days, because I really dislike dealing with it.

Anyway, still better than being Sid Justice right about now.

Getting closer to another major milestone for WCW, but first it’s the NWA World tag team title tournament!  Aren’t you EXCITED?

Once again, we’ve rolled around to another Wrestlemania in these.  Dave doesn’t seem too thrilled about it, but then it was pretty hard to muster much enthusiasm for the WWF at that point.  Unfortunately it would only get worse from there.

Days away from Wrestlemania now, and the media still won’t quite leave Vince McMahon alone.  He might have to do something DRASTIC at the show to get people talking again, I bet.  We’ll see how it plays out for him next week.

To the Observer!

Wrestling Observer Flashback–03.30.92

By Scott Keith on 22nd February 2017

Two weeks away from the biggest show of the year, and apparently no one gives a crap.  Why can’t the biased media just concentrate on telling Vince’s story properly and hype Flair v. Savage instead of insisting on investigating illegal activities and other petty stuff like that?

Wrestling Observer Flashback–03.23.92

By Scott Keith on 21st February 2017

Correction from last week’s opening blurb:  THIS is the week that all the shit hits the fan. In fact, it’s more like an elephant taking a huge shit right onto an industrial sized fan. 

Also, if you’re enjoying these and want to read the originals without my snark and memes and judicious editing down to 2000 words per issue, try a month of the F4WOnline site, including all the archived newsletters and radio shows, for just $3.99!  I have literally subscribed since the day the site launched and have never regretted it for a second.
