WHY WCW USED OZ, CHARLOTTE, EVA MARIE WORKING THE INDEPENDENTS AND MORE

By Mike Johnson on 2017-08-19 10:00:00

Will Charlotte appear this weekend at any of the Summerslam events?

No, we are told she has been pulled from the road due to the health situation involving her father Ric Flair.  It would be unfair to expect her to have to appear before fans given the situation.

Recently I decided to read Bret Hart's book, and one thing that was mentioned was how a lot of wrestlers had heat with Jerry Lawler when he arrived in the WWE, so they took a dump in his crown.  Any idea where the heat stemmed from?

A lot of wrestlers had resentment towards Lawler for low pay and treatment they received working the Memphis territory.

Do you see Eva Marie working the independents?

What? No way.  She is going to focus on acting and other endeavors.  There is no way she is looking to do the independent grind.

What's the story on the Big O?

Big O is a real life friend of Zack Ryder who got into the business and is wrestling in the New York independent scene.  He is very charismatic but very limited.

Why would WCW have given Kevin Nash the Oz name back in the 1990s?

Turner Broadcasting owned the rights to the Wizard of Oz and decided they should try and use the assets in WCW.  Seriously.  It didn't last long.
