Talk about it here.

Austin has debuted in WCW. He is accompanied by Vivacious Veronica, who was quickly replaced. Paul E. calling her a natural blond when her roots are so dark is funny. She and Austin definitely don't have the chemistry that Austin and Jeanne had, so that was a wise decision.

Austin comes across as someone special, but lacks chemistry with his 2nd.

Watching the '90 and '91 yearbooks, this is sort of like seeing your local bar act land their first big record deal. Veronica looks good, maybe better than Jeannie, but is pretty charismatically challenged, and too similar to Alexandra York character-wise. For that matter, they could have brought Woman back. Austin comes off as a future star but was clearly given absolutely no direction for his debut promo. "None of your business, interview's over" isn't really an auspicious start.

Don't know who this Veronica is. Austin has arrived in WCW. Good for him as he was going nowhere in USWA in 91.

I think she was one of the girls that worked with Raven in Portland.

She came in from Portland. I believe she ended up marrying Rex King.

So here he is debuting in the big two. Veronica is putrid but the Stunning character we will see up until the Hollywood Blond era is already here. Really fun to watch.

That's it? They could have done that in a thirty-second insert between matches. Am I the only one who thinks they did it this way so 1) JR could squeeze in an extra plug or two for upcoming events and 2) Heyman could make a crack about Missy's hair?

 

Veronica is a Terri Runnels/Alexandra York clone. In fact, if I didn't know better, I'd swear that Terri just switched wigs in the back between segments. Free Jeannie!

There was a massive disconnect between Veronica's attitude and movements while walking to and from the ring and her "personality" when she was interviewing. Austin definitely has presence though.
