So one day I went through the search function of basically hit "series record" on any and all wrestling related content. I guess this is something that was around from 1991-93 on ESPN. I've been recording it on ESPN Classic.
I haven't watched a full episode yet and have no idea who most of the people are but I did see Booker T. And oh - the commentary. The slight bit I caught sounded like some of the most racist commentary I've ever heard. I mean, I think they thought it was alright back then but wow. It's really a thing. I'll give some examples one of these days.

Is this the same thing as the GWF? If it is, then I remember watching an ep that had the Lightning Kid vs Jerry Lynn. X-Pac looked like a damn toothpick, but was playing the heel, it was crazy. Only watched it briefly after that. Remember seeing Booker & Stevie, Raven, Eddie Gilbert.

Watching some of this right now. The tag team of Big John Hawk and Bobby Duncum Jr. Also apparently known as the Texas Mustangs. Big John Hawk, also known as JBL, had some sweet hair.

One of the announcers is smoking a cigar right at the announce table.
