WAR
GAMES
This issue appeared in August 1992, and pushes Rick Rude, the "new WCW World Champion."
But "Although Rude holds the belt he is not champion." That is, Rude had stolen the belt from the "Rightful Champion" Sting.
"Can the Stinger team wrest the belt from Rude? Only then can it be awarded to the Rightful Champion. But first Sting must win the ...WAR GAMES."
"Two rings will be covered with an enormous steel cage and two teams of four will compete until one man submits. When this happens, that man's entire team loses."
Sting's stable comprises Sting, Z-Man and The Steiners.
They go up against Paul E Dangerous' alliance - Stunning Steve Austin, Arn Anderson, Beautiful Bobby (Eaton) and Rude.
And how was the Z-Man
being booked at the time? .....you guess from what follows.
Precious seconds
are ticking away as Sting tries to force open the cage door...."Hang on
Z-Man! We're coming." Where's the Key? Who's got the key?....."
