As we continue our journey through 1991 pro wrestling, Dusty Rhodes has gone from WWF upper-midcarder to WCW booker/commentator and lemme tell ya, the dude has some OPINIONS about Desert Storm. Oof.

BUT! This show also features Sid squashing a dweeb, the sexiest wrestler contest, RHUBARB JONES, the redemption of the Renegade Warriors, and so very much else. Enjoy!

NEXT WEEK: We review WWF Main Event 5 and the first half of WCW WrestleWar 91

We finally did it! We've made the jump from the dreary doldrums of WCW, to the outlandish tackiness of the World Wrestling Federation in January of 1991. Folks, Saddam Hussein has invaded Kuwait and Hulk Hogan is NOT having it. Plus one very very good match and a few very very good angles! Plus a boring Rumble! Wow! What more could you ask for??!?!

NEXT WEEK: Clash of the Champions 14: Dixie Dynamite

What was the best, worst, and bestworst of WCW in the latter half of 1990? What's next for Immovable Objects? Listen and find out!

A meaningless tag team tournament? A gigantic laptop computer? The payoff (if you can call it that) of one of the worst storylines of all time? PLUS yet another crowded field of contenders for the Classy Freddy Blassie Hollywood Fashion Plate Award for Sartorial Savvy. What a treat. Enjoy it folks! We'll see you next week for our overall awards for this run of mid/late 1990 WCW shows.

Folks, we've finally made it to the very worst show of 1990, as voted by the readers of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, and what a treat it is! Some truly fabulous fashion, an all-time classic bad match, and Ric Flair vs. Butch Reed but somehow it's not that good. Enjoy!

These Ole Anderson booked shows are not getting any better! Enjoy our review of NWA/WCW Halloween Havoc 1990: Terror Rules the Ring!

As we continue our journey through 1990 NWA/WCW, we come to Clash of the Champions XII: Mountain Madness/Fall Brawl, where we get our first glimpse of the ignominious entity known as the Black Scorpion! Plus the introduction of several truly dreadful big lug tag teams, the continued adventures of the Wormball, and so very much more!

I didn't do timestamps for this one, sorry!

In this very first episode of Immovable Objects, we review NWA/WCW's  Capitol Combat 1990, a show most (in)famous for the highly promoted but  disappointingly brief appearance of Robocop. We cover every match, every promo, the context in which the show took place, Dave Meltzer's live  and in-person thoughts from ancient Observer issues, and so much else, as we go on many unrelated tangents! Enjoy!

*****The first ten episodes of this show were recorded WELL in  advance, so please disregard and/or be amused by references to stuff like how it's snowing out or whatever was going on in the real world at the time*****
