Earthquake splashed his arm and he sold it as being broken so he had to be taken to the back.

The cane shot to the back of Tommy's head was pretty good.

From the 10/31/94 WON: "It was no secret going in that after Hogan beat Flair, the company's No. 1 priority would be the post-match angle to establish John Tenta, now called Avalanche, as the new monster heel threat to be fed to Hogan. There would be no time to give Flair the send-off that he deserves." He even mentioned the plan was for Flair to return in March to team with Hogan, so he didn't I don't think anyone in the business bought Flair retiring in the slightest, so why bother giving him a big send-off? Yes, it would have made it look authentic, but they had to bow to whatever Hogan wanted.

I think Landell was still around at this point, but they had lost a "loser must split up" match to the Moondogs.

His back is just tore apart. It's funny when people say "It sounds/looks bad but it doesn't really hurt." Looks like it hurt to me. And again, Woman is great here. This feud makes me want to watch some old Florida with her in it.

This is classic WCW because the plaques are pretty nice. But then, I guess The Assassin didn't show his plaque because they accidentally made 2 Harley Race ones and he didn't get one made for him.

I remember Meltzer saying that Tenta wasn't crazy about the idea of this match, due to his legit past. That may be why they gave him the win.

I just read in the 2/14/94 issue that Elizabeth did commentary on ESPN speedboat racing.

If Brock was coming back to work 200 shows a year, then yes this was unquestionably one of the worst decisions ever. But the guy's already gone again for an indefinite amount of time. I really think WWE is just hedging their bets with Lesnar. They want to use his name to bring some more eyeballs to their product, they don't want to hand him the keys to the company by letting him work twice a year, destroying their top guys. That doesn't help anyone, except Brock who is already walking away with $5 million, so why should he care? We all already know that Brock could "really" beat Cena...or Sheamus...or Bryan or whoever. They need to establish an air of unpredictably to the Brock character that maybe he won't win every match. This is especially important if they really are planning on building Wrestlemania around him. If he beats Cena and 1 or 2 other top guys between now and then, who gives a fuck about who he would wrestle (bar, maybe the Undertaker)? And besides all that, there's the elephant in the room that this is a guy who will flake out on you in half a second. His wife probably doesn't love the business, she's had well-documented problems with you in the past, they've got several children...numerous reasons for him to not want to be there for too long.
