C. K. Punk: Another enjoyable WCW nitro. My thoughts:
- Macho Man sitting in the ring was humorous to an extent, but lacked a realistic ending. Sting being able to shove him around with the bat and then both just walk way doesn’t make a lot of sense to me an was anticlimactic.
- When Stevie Ray came out announcer made comment:” didn’t this guy just get beat up…oh this is the other one”. Funny moment, and he was obviously referring to the “other” tag team partner, in today’s politically correct culture, I doubt a comment like this would fly well.
- Commentator made a reference to a “bogus Sting” when the nWo Sting came out. I am new to WCW and am not very familiar with this story line, but, it is apparent that there is the real Sting and a fake Sting. The commentators have been playing along as if they believed Sting really did join the nWo, or at least were not sure. This comment seems out of place, so I am wondering if commentator slipped up here?
