That Beach Blast one is odd. Jim Ross would have been gone from WCW for a few months before that time. How did that image come about? Maybe it was taped ahead of time. The background with Sting and Bulldog is from the actual PPV it looks like. Jim was with WWF for three full months before Beach Blast. Without a video we may not know the real origin. |

The end of the Bobby/Gorilla era on PTW I remember Tito and Koko wrestling each other a few times in early 1991, was there ever a reason for this? Were they going to turn one heel, but changed their minds? |

It's always amazing to see early pics of Flair, you would never believe it was him - not quite space mountain just yet. Was it also Rhodes who talked him out of going by Ramblin' Ricky Rhodes? Was he the one who told Ric to stay with Flair, that it was such a great name for a cocky, heel wrestler? |

I thought I remember him saying something about a crossover period from when he left WCW and joined WWF, he was still contracted to do the Ross Report Show (I think that was the name) by Turner. I think he mentioned something about this on one of his podcasts. |

I don’t know about the second part but yes Dusty basically told him to forge his own path instead of just re-tracing Dustys path. |

Vince's hand always looks so weird in that pic, the way the skin looks like it's all bunched up to his fingers. |

Were they going to turn one heel, but changed their minds? I dont recall them planning to turn either heel. Chico def was face for life and Koko while he was a good heel in Memphis, I just couldnt see his Birdman character a heel in the WWF. He was over like rover with the kids |
