Here’s a classic match up that began the feud between Big Van Vader and a young Sting! Sting was really going for the gusto in WCW and wasn’t exactly great just yet. Big Van Vader has basically steam rolled the competition in WCW and was being pushed as the biggest obstacle in WCW at the time.
I’m not sure when this match took place, but it looks like early 90’s WCW footage from a WCW Saturday Night or Clash of the Champions. I’m not sure; it doesn’t look like a ppv match up, but it’s worth checking out classic Sting in Action.

I am Tired of Ric Flair Retirement Matches

I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of seeing Ric Flair about to retire, or in a retirement match.
Do you remember any other times that Ric Flair was suppose to retire?
Well lets rewind a little…not too far…
In 1993 at Starrcade, Ric Flair stated that if he didn’t beat Big Van Vader for the world title, he would retire.
He went on to win the belt that night, but it wasn’t the last time he would say such things.
He again was ready to retire in 1994 when he faced Hulk Hogan in a retirement steel cage match.
Now he’s back again and every match is a retirement match.
You for sure are going to be sad because the lackluster performances are going to rise.
Why?
Because Flair has a bad back and if you watch him bump, he always tends to land on his side not really his back, therefore risking more and more injury, which is sad on a lot of levels.
Flair will most likely continue to win, and win by slim margins until his contract is up…or….
He is going to replace JBL at the announce booth sooner than later.
