Loved this era of WCW without Flair and pre Hoegan. Vader the real MVP

 

[R=G]

Unforgettable moment..I couldn't believe it...that power slam...1..2..3. WTF..Big Van Vader was so dominant. Excellent ALL TIME MOMENT.

 

[Toe Jay Simpson]

Vader was a good dude for doing the job without drama. I don’t think Ric Flair would lay down for a black coroner

 

[CBoz]

Booker T was 2nd right?

Because The Rock doesn't count.

 

[Vice Queen]

Classic.

I wonder where the breh who leapt out of his seat after the 3 count is now.

I hope he's prospering in life.

Spoiler

not saying flair wasn’t a typical cac

That pop was insane, I was legit shocked. Vader had beat Sting and I thought Ron had no chance. Young me was already that Sting got got. Then Ron pulled off what I thought was the impossible. Ron Simmons. Prime JR on the call made that shyt all the more epic.

 

[HipHopStan]

This title change happened at a house show too.

 

[The Ruler 09]

Vader was great and Ron Simmons made history that night.
