One of the tag lines WCW gave Halloween Havoc '90 was "A Night That Will Haunt You Forever."
Indeed.
Not only is this a PPV that will haunt fans who were looking for better quality in the booking, it is a night that will forever haunt the legacy of the man called Sting. Sting, in his first PPV as heavyweight champion, must endure the parlor tricks of a magician named Black Scorpion, while defending his world title against an too-green Sid Vicious. On top of all of this, we see the debut of the screwiest screw job angle--the fake Sting.
Can Sting survive booking that seems only capable of crippling his first world title reign?
Find out on Halloween Havoc '90.
Trigger warning: the content may indeed haunt you forever.

WCW was the genesis of fandom for millions of pro wrestling enthusiasts over the course of a tumultuous 12 and half year run. From Starrcade of 1988 all the way to Greed of 2001, the company's fortunes, their glories and missteps, can be traced though their larger than life PPV events.
Shane, (@OneManHypeBand), formerly of LOP Radio's Impact the Revolution, returns to the LOPR airwaves to present this special series looking back upon the legacy of one of the most important entities in the history of pro wrestling. What was good, what was bad, most important why it meant so much to him as a developing fan and why it should mean so much to you now, as a fan far removed from the company's glory days.
WCW: The Legacy Series is more than a review or recap show. Far more. It's the story of a legacy. It's the story of modern mythological beings, still close enough to reach out and touch. Join us for the journey.
