January 26, 201114 yr Author comment_5463092 Gene Okerlund's little sidebar conversations crack me up. As they start this interview, Juventud has just finished a match and is going back to the locker room. "Juventud Guerrera is a guy that just wanders around here, but that's another story", then goes right to the interview. They replay a recent Sting/Luger vs Steiners match where Luger bumps into Nick Patrick and gets DQ'd for it. Patrick defends himself and wants to know why Luger isn't suspended for chasing him out of the building. Nick Patrick blames Gene Okerlund for making people think he's in the NWO. Gene wants to know why Patrick recently has all these new expensive things, and Patrick says if Gene doesn't stop pushing these lies, they are going to end up in court. Patrick is a good promo. They cut to the parking lot with the NWO putting flyers on everyone's cars in the parking lot. They show DiBiase talking to someone in the parking lot. Who could it be?
March 22, 201411 yr comment_5595463 Patrick really was excellent during these times. Very good promo and he had a nice chemistry with Gene.
March 23, 201510 yr comment_5660138 Loved Patrick putting Gene in his place. We get highlights (or the entire match) from a brilliant finish the previous week, as Patrick disqualifies Luger for bumping into him on the opening lock-up, leading to the chase and stolen squad car. Meanwhile, the Outsiders, Hogan, and Giant are plastering flyers over cars in the parking lot, while DiBiase is talking to someone inside a limo. Hmm, can't be any of the 4 other members of the NWO...
November 19, 20159 yr comment_5710805 Patrick is good at this point. You know the end game, but he still plays it up effectively. The stuff with Dibiase talking to someone outside created some good mystery as to what the night will entail.
December 9, 20177 yr comment_5823470 Impressive performance for a referee. This NWO story is nailing just about everything right, including the sense of the NWO's creeping control over more and more of WCW. They draw it out enough and, even though it's obvious what's going on, it's not so explicit so that there's still a sense of suspense.
March 28Mar 28 comment_6028590 Patrick is surprisingly good as a promo. I'm normally against referees as heels, but in the case of Nick Patrick and the NWO it works.
