Revisiting WCW Saturday Night 1993 Sting Goes To Vader’s White Castle of Fear, 2 Cold Scorpio Music Video, Maxx Payne Debut
WCW Saturday Night from January 30th, 1993 features one of WCW’s most bizarre creations: the White Castle of Fear. In the lead up to SuperBrawl III, Sting receives a mysterious invitation to Big Van Vader’s icy mountain lair to play an insane game. What followed was a strange vignette filled with mind games that felt more like a low-budget action movie. It really is something to witness. Also, because so many fans love it, we get to see the 2 Cold Scorpio music video! Set to his theme song, the video featured Scorpio dancing, flying through the air in the ring, and more importantly playing basketball against a group of kids and absolutely dominating them. 2 Cold Scorpio was truly ahead of his time! Plus, The Z Man takes on Chris Benoit, Maxx Payne makes his WCW debut, Paul Orndorff battles The Barbarian, and Vader and Barry Windham wrestle Sting and Dustin Rhodes in the main event!⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com #deadlock #prowrestling

Revisiting WWE ECW 2006 Big Show Wins ECW Championship, CM Punk’s First Promo, Test Debuts
It’s the July 4th, 2006 episode of WWE ECW on Sci-Fi and everything is fine… or is it?! Rob Van Dam won the WWE and ECW Championship at ECW One Night Stand 2. He was on top of the world. Until he was traveling from a show in West Virginia to Philadelphia with Sabu on July 1st. RVD was pulled over for speeding! They would both be arrested for possession of marijuana. This would cause RVD’s world to come crashing down. On RAW the night before this episode, he would lose the WWE Championship to Edge in a triple threat match involving John Cena. Tonight will be the infamous match with The Big Show. At the start of the show The Big Show went up to Paul Heyman and demanded an ECW title match. Rob Van Dam would later accept this challenge by walking into Big Show’s locker room and slapping him in the face. As the match happened, Paul Heyman came down and screwed RVD out of the title. The Big Show would become WWE ECW Champion and fans would litter the ring with trash. A true Philly Riot. Also, Kelly Kelly dances, Mike Knox wrestles, Test debuts against Al Snow, CM Punk cuts his first promo and a strange vampire is outside the area. Plus, the DEADLOCK Q&A is back.⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com #deadlock #prowrestling
