10 Craziest Ever WCW Nitro Moments

6. Vince Russo Wins The WCW Championship - 25th September 2000

http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2mupw_booker-t-vs-vince-russo-wcw-title_sport Head writer Vince Russo€™s ultra-short run as WCW Champion is memorable for precisely nothing, largely because it was yet another short-term ploy to salvage the promotion€™s falling ratings, and not actually a genuine wrestling storyline. In a cage match against WCW Champion Booker T, heel authority figure Russo (dressed in football pads and helmet), wildly swung at officials at ringside with a rubber bat, until the apparently fired Ric Flair was revealed to be inside the cage, masquerading as an EMT. Cue more run-ins, and more chaos outside of the cage, while the babyface champion regained control of the match and hit some of his patented offence against Russo, who was completely incapable of bumping for it properly, selling the axe kick worse than Eskimos sell ice to polar bears. And then suddenly Goldberg appeared, spearing Russo out of nowhere and out of his socks€ and straight through the gimmicked cage wall, just before Booker could leave the cage via the open door. Russo had escaped the cage first, and inadvertently won the WCW Championship. Quite why Booker high-fived Goldberg after his interference when it had cost him the match and the title at the point where he had it won, remains yet another WCW booking mystery.
