Summary

The latest Lapsed Fan delves into a moment just before the launch of the game-changing Monday Nitro, as World Championship Wrestling staged the 1995 Great American Bash with Ric Flair and Randy Savage taking center stage and Hulk Hogan’s shadow looming large.

Hosts Jack Encarnacao and JP Sarro dive deep on this Turner offering, and drink up the atmosphere of a show that took place just days after news broke that WCW was going to make a run at Vince McMahon’s Monday night real estate.

The show includes:

- The Tragedy of The Renegade

- Lanky Alex Wright takes to the sky against Brian Pillman in a barn burner

- The WCW look-a-like sweepstakes

- The U.S. title tournament – which included Flair v. Wright and Savage v. Austin – concludes with Sting versus Meng and his martial arts expertise

- Commish Nick Bockwinkel forgets the name of Bash at the Beach in an all-time fail

- Sgt. Craig Pittman throws himself out of the ring and lands on his feet, then bumps. Then goes the Power Plant to train other wrestlers

- The mystery behind Marcus Alexander Bagwell’s absence REVEALED

- The reason Hogan tussles with Vader on the pre-show only to make no appearance whatsoever on the pay-per-view REVEALED

- Flair uses Angelo Poffo as a human shield to clip Savage’s knee, and other assorted Flair vintage

That and so much more, included the original working title of Monday Nitro. The latest Lapsed Fan is what you need, download it now!
