ARN #243: Get Your Money's Worth (February 1995)

 


Arn and Paul discuss all things February 1995 in WCW, including the below topics...

- Arn was WCW Television Champion and is in a feud with Johnny B Badd, with unique finishes in each match. The prolonged program aimed to elevate Badd. The lumberjack match, set before SuperBrawl, had a short duration and aired on TV, not PPV. It wasn't the blowoff; that comes at Uncensored.

- Barry Darsow's portrayal of Black Top Bully is discussed; his tenure ends soon.

- Harley Race's accident forced him to retire, mirroring Arn's own early retirement due to injury.

- WCW's decision to increase PPVs raised questions of oversaturation. Hogan's potential PPV earnings were staggering.

- SuperBrawl '95 received mixed reviews, with poor finishes and lackluster matches
