Guest Your Olympic Hero Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 I was wondering if anyone on here remembered a WCW US title tournament that lasted from the end of 1992 until the first part of 1993. In specific, I was wondering if either of these two matches were good: Ricky Steamboat vs. Barry Windham in the semifinals, and Ricky Steamboat vs. Dustin Rhodes in the finals. Maybe a match time or star rating, or possibly a link to a review. Thanks.

Actually, it was ORIGINALLY for a shot at Rude's US Title, but Rude had a neck injury and had to forfeit the belt during the tournament. The tourney was OK. The final was pretty darned good. -=Mike
Guest MikeSC Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 Who won the title? Dustin won the belt when he pinned Steamboat. He then retained against him the next week in another good match. -=Mike
cawthon777 Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 He didn't pin him, he beat him via count-out after Windham interfered on the floor.
JoeDirt Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 He won the title by a count out in a tourney final?
Guest wayzing Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 How was the Windham/Steamboat match, then? That's one of my all time dream matches. Anyone know if they faced each other in the mid 80's?
cawthon777 Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 He won the title by a count out in a tourney final? Yep, which resulted in Steamboat getting the quick rematch.
Guest Your Olympic Hero Posted February 23, 2004 Report Posted February 23, 2004 Thanks for the info on the endings... still looking for the length of the matches? Steamboat/Windham, and both Steamboat/Rhodes matches.
Drury37 Posted February 25, 2004 Report Posted February 25, 2004 I have like that whole tournament on video and the Steamboat Vs. Rhodes finals was a great match until the end but still a very strong finish. Thanks.
Guest wayzing Posted February 25, 2004 Report Posted February 25, 2004 Aaaahhh! Come on now! There must be someone out there who can say a thing or two about the Steamboat/Windham match. Drury, is the Steamboat/Rhodes rematch on your tape, too?
