The Backstory!


The year was 1996 in WCW, and the company was in the winning midst of an intense ratings war with the WWF. WCW was coming off yet another successfull PPV in Starrcade 1995, and the leader of the newly-reformed Four Horsemen, "Nature Boy" Ric Flair was the new WCW World Champion for the 12th time in his career after defeating "Macho Man" Randy Savage for the title with help from his fellow Horsemen cohorts, Arn Anderson, Brian Pillman, & Chris Benoit. The Four Horsemen were riding again. Brian Pillman, who running a very successfull new gimmick called "The Loose Cannon", was ready to bolt for the WWF after hearing that Hulk Hogan was growing more concerned for his main event spot, as the weeks went by. But, WCW Vice President, Eric Bischoff learned about this, and pulled a concerned Pillman into his office and reassured Pillman that his character will be safe in his hands. As the months continued into the summer of 1996, and as Horsemen member, Brian Pillman continued to work the entire wrestling industry with his "Loose Cannon" character at SuperBrawl 6 in a strap match with The Taskmaster from The Dungeon of Doom, Pillman did the infamous "Bookerman" promo with Sullivan, and it was thought by many that Pillman was gone from The Four Horsemen. But, that was never the case, as he came back after a brief stint in ECW, rejoined his cohorts with more focus than ever. Plus, former WWF stars, Scott Hall & Kevin Nash were on their way to WCW after accepting a huge offer from Turner. A huge angle was in the plans. Also, Ric Flair, who was in the midst of a major feud with Randy Savage after winning the WCW World Title from him for the 13th time, was also in a feud with Nitro broadcaster, Steve McMichael after weeks of Flair hitting on Mongo's wife. At the 1996 GAB PPV Ric Flair & Arn Anderson are heading into a tag team match with Steve McMichael & Kevin Greene. Plus, Horsemen member, Chris Benoit was in an intense feud with The Taskmaster, heading into the Great American Bash.


:::Backstory Flashback:::

In 1993, the former Big Bossman, Ray Traylor left the WWF for WCW, and was given a simular "Law Enforcer" gimmick, and a new name of The Boss. The WWF didn't like this move, as Vince McMahon felt that Traylor's gimmick was very simular to The Big Bossman gimmick in the WWF. What the WWF didn't know was that after Ray left the WWF, he trademarked the name of "The Boss", and he & his attorneys allowed WCW to use that name with him, and his character in WCW. Ray Traylor used his babyface Police Officer gimmick from his arrival in WCW in 1993 up to the present 1996 day.

:::Flash Forward:::

The Boss became a close ally of Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, & Sting after Lex Luger turned heel on Hogan & Savage, despite remaining friends with Sting.


Ok, the first show will be the GAB 1996 PPV.

WCW presents, The Great American Bash!


The announcers were Tony Schavoine, Dusty Rhodes, & DDP. (DDP was the special guest heel analyst for the night in place of Bobby Heenan.)


Match #1:

The Steiner Brothers vs. Fire & Ice (Scott Norton & Ice Train)

This match starts off with a little test of strength betweem Scott Steiner and Scott Norton. Both men try to gain the advantage over the other, but they get a stalemate, as Norton knees Steiner in the abdomen, and starts going to work on him. Norton tags Train, who picks up where Norton left off by keeping Scott grounded with a few blows, followed by a weardown hold. A reverse chinlock. The fans chant for Scott to fight out of it, and pretty soon, Scott guts it out to break free. Tag out to Rick by Scott. Rick starts breaking out all the big suplexes on Fire & Ice. Soon, all hell breaks loose, and the referee loses control of the match. Ice Train gets isolated from the bout, while Norton is up in the Steinerizer. Bulldog from the top by Rick, who makes the cover.

Falls Count Anywhere match

Chris Benoit vs. The Taskmaster

This match was easily the best match of the night, as both men brawled all over the building. They fought everywhere, including in the bathrooms. They went at it with several weapons, as well. As soon as they returned their brutal fight back to the ringside area, Benoit pulled a strong wooden table out from unter the ring, and slid it into the ring, where he whipped Taskmaster onto the table. Benoit tried to ram him through it, but missed. Taskmaster then propped the table up on the top turnbuckle, and then propped Benoit on top. As Sullivan climbed up top, Benoit countered with a superplex, followed by a pinfall.

Interview Segment!

Eric Bischoff interviewed the two Outsiders on the stage area. Scott Hall & Kevin Nash, who had been appearing on WCW Monday Nitro for weeks leading into the PPV, said that WCW was "too weak" and "too gutless" to give them their match with three of WCW's finest. Bischoff told them that they'll get their six man tag team match at the next WCW PPV, Bash At The Beach. They ask Eric who the 3 guys are, and Bischoff doesn't know yet. But, this doesn't sit too well with The Outsiders, as they attack Eric, and Nash powerbombs him off the stage, and through a table. The Outsiders leave, as the medics tend to Eric.


Backstage, Steve McMichael & Kevin Greene are with their wives, and Randy Savage. Gene is conducting the interview. Mongo and Greene both say that they are both ready to fight The Horsemen. Mongo promises victory against Flair, tonight.


Ric Flair & Arn Anderson (w/Woman, Liz, & Heenan) vs. Steve McMichael & Kevin Greene (w/Debra, Terra, & Savage)

This match was exactly what it was hyped up to be, and that was a total donnybrook from the very beginning. Mongo really takes it Flair in this war. Same with Greene taking it to Double A. Halfway through the match Woman & Elizabeth ran Debra & Terra back to the backstage area. But later on, Debra returned with both Woman & Liz in a nice dress and bringing a briefcase with her. She got on the apron, and just as she was looking like she was gonna help her husband, she tossed the briefcase to Ric Flair, who knocks out Mongo with it, and pinned him to score the victory.

After the match, Mongo, Greene, & Savage all tried to get revenge as Flair celebrated with Debra, Woman, & Liz. But, Benoit & Pillman hit the ring and joined Flair & Anderson in a Four Horsemen beatdown and humilliation of Team Mongo. The carnage continues until the sirens blare through the speakers, and the music of The Boss hits, and The Boss hits the ring, and runs The Four Horsemen and their ladies off and away from the ring. As The Four Horsemen left with their entourage, The Boss stood alone in the ring, tending to the losers.


WCW World Title match

The Giant © (w/Jimmy Hart) vs. Lex Luger (WCW world Tag Team & Television Champion)

This was the main event of the evening, and just as Luger was expected to walk away with the gold, after putting The Giant in the Torture Rack, it was not fated to be true, as The Giant was able to lay out the challenger with his signature Chokeslam, and snag the pinfall after a 10 minute match for the gold.

-Sometime during the match, Hulk Hogan came down to the ring, and once he hit the ring, he tore his Hogan shirt off, and ran Hall & Nash out of the ring.

-Then, the unthinkable happened. Hulk Hogan dropped the legdrop on Savage 3 times, signalling that HE was the 3rd man with The Outsiders, betraying his legions of fans all over the world, and ending Hulkamania. He then cut a promo with Hall & Nash, proclaiming them as the New World Order, and that they were gonna take over WCW and professional wrestling.

-As WCW, the fans, and the wrestling world looked on in horror, everyone soon realized that a historic era in wrestling had come to a very shocking end, as the PPV came to a close.
