Jim Niehart in WCW

Recommended Posts

Guest tank_abbott

I have a WCW Sat. Night Tape from 1992/3 (?) with JYD teaming with Jim Niehart...

 

I can't recall ever reading about the Anvil jumping ship to WCW at that point, or doing anything of note.... Please fill me in....

He was in WCW for a very very short time in 92-93. One WCW magazine has a profile on him that I remember. He was gone just like that though

I think he left with Dave Smith "British Bulldog" for WCW but did nothing to really speak about.

He had two different stints...One when his contract ran out or he was released in Mid 1992, He jumped to WCW and didn't do much and was gone before Davey ever showed up.

 

He jumped again with Davey and Bret in 1998...He lasted around 6 months and even had a TV title run I think...But he left.

He was there for a few months in 92-93 but did nothing special.

Nope he never had a TV title run. I think he just mainly teamed (and jobbed) with DBS.

I remember I said a few months ago that Jim Neidhart was in WCW from 1992-1993 and people said I was wrong,but I was actually right.I remember once on WCW Saturday Night when he put a fake goatee on Tony Schivanne,it was hilarious!!!

Thanks.

DBS and Neidhart got a shot once at the IWGP tag titles on Thunder I think...but they lost.

I find it very odd that Neidhart ever teamed up with JYD. From what I remember and what I've seen on tape since, Neidhart didn't show up until the spring of 93 and stayed until MAYBE August - while JYD didn't make another appearance after fall 92. I remember reading Neidhart had house show matches against Arn Anderson in 93, with Double A coming out on top.

I guess he wrestled Pierce in a dark match at the June Clash, so Jim was that close to being in a TV match that more people would remember (since his stint was so short most don't)
