November 10, 201212 yr Author comment_5519528 A super cheesy video with Sting's head superimposed on some other muscle guy's body next to ROBOCOP. It's time for Capital Combat! Cornette wants to know where Sting gets off thinking he can bring a freak into PRO WRESTLING!
November 12, 201212 yr comment_5519773 Cornette's facial reaction mirrors probably 99% of the audience. What's RoboCop "returning" from, anyway?
December 5, 201212 yr comment_5521672 Cornette and Ross tried their hardest and had some great interactions with each other in this segment but this was so stupid and cartoony. Sting has been a part of this and spin the wheel make the deal.
December 23, 201212 yr comment_5523703 How JR was able to keep a straight face when he says Sting will be at Capitol Combat and he's bring Robo cop for back up is beyond me. Man this seems so much more WWF than WCW at this point though.
January 18, 201312 yr comment_5528724 Oh my. They build to Sting having a huge announcement, maybe the end of his career and we have Robocop show up. Ross does his best to be serious.
January 26, 201312 yr comment_5530708 I vaguely recall flipping through the channels as a lad, happening upon World Championship Wrestling, and seeing RoboCop, and realizing that was even too cartoony for me to believe and shutting it off. I didn't give WCW another chance until the next year. And I was a Hulkamaniac at this point! Poor Sting, they really know how to saddle him with some absolute dogshit.
October 13, 201311 yr comment_5567167 Ross does look like he is dying to laugh here. "He's Robocop" Jesus Christ, how did this happen?
January 1, 201411 yr comment_5578219 Weird seeing this and then turning on the TV to see a trailer for the new Robocop coming out 14 years later.
December 24, 201410 yr comment_5646841 God love JR and Corny for actually trying to sell this as serious business instead of dissolving in hysterical laughter on camera. Maybe if this had happened in '87 when the movie originally came out, it would at least be understandable, if not excusable. But three years later? This was nothing more than trying to outdo Vince and failing miserably, which this company became experts at over the years. The highlight of the piece was Corny proclaiming Washington as a bastion of honesty and integrity one minute, then claiming that it's the only place in the world where Sting could pull off this whole sham because it's so crooked the next. How did WCW ever let him get away?
February 15, 20169 yr comment_5727204 Cornette's facial reaction mirrors probably 99% of the audience. What's RoboCop "returning" from, anyway?This is what I was going to ask in here. I always figured Robocop showed up on tv at some point for an angle and then came back at Capital Combat, but is this it? Is he returning from this clip?
December 19, 20168 yr comment_5779277 Jim Ross says that they’ve received a special videotape from Sting before they went on air today and no-one has seen it yet. Jim Cornette thinks it’s going to contain a message from Sting saying that he’s going to quit wrestling as he doesn’t want the Horseman to cripple him any further. He doesn’t want his career ended, his neck broken and he’s going to stay away from wrestling for the rest of his life. Ross gets them to roll the tape and Sting says how the time has come to introduce Robocop who will be at his side for Capital Combat. Ross takes delight in Cornette being wrong, but he isn’t happy about Sting bringing a creature like that anywhere near professional wrestling. ‘It’s malarkey!’ He says that the Horsemen are not going to be intimidated or scared of some big pile of scrap metal standing ten feet tall and they will still triumph because they are the elite in professional wrestling. We’re they really trying to get PPV sales of Robocop???
February 16, 20178 yr comment_5788669 Poor, poor Sting. The guy goes from for sure next World Champ to....this. No questions where his career started it's downward spiral.
