October 26, 201410 yr Author comment_5635550 Curt Hennig comes out to talk about how much he hates rap music. He wants to know what happened to good old country music. This whole feud was fun in a way, but also had some weird racial undertones. WCW looks so unhip. Then we get an announcement that WCW has signed a deal with Tommy Boy Records. I don't get why they're spotlighting Booker T so much. They never quite explain what kind of agreement they made and what they'll be doing.
March 21, 201510 yr comment_5659738 The start of Rap is crap. Curt brings up some old school country guys and wonders where they all went. By the sound of it, you would have thought he was from JCP 1986. Raven at the Tommy Boy announcement is weird.
March 25, 201510 yr comment_5660507 I am very excited to revisit the Rap is Crap angle as it was probably my favorite thing from WCW in 1999 The Tommy Boy Stuff was whatever and holy shit did WCW show how many other endeavors they had going on or what during this show.
June 20, 20178 yr comment_5804467 Hennig seems out of it, fumbling less-than-perfectly with his headset and calling Schiavone "Tenay." Schiavone hypes the "hip, new relationship" between WCW and Tommy Boy Records. Hip and new--that's Tony, all right. And what better choice to head up the West Texas Rednecks than Minnesota's Greatest Athlete? (Not that there aren't rednecks in Minnesota.) Some guy for Tommy Boy declares that this is the first time that wrestling, in its long history, has merged with music. Oh come ON--no company who so shamelessly courts 1980's WWF fans should be letting that one slide. Raven expresses his like for Afrika Bambaata in a desperate attempt to lend this some credibility. Konnan comes out to spark a brawl with Hennig due to Curt's heinous and inflammatory remarks that he prefers Willie Nelson to rap. Fightin' words indeed.
