During a recent Q&A for “AdFreeShows,” former WCW talent Sonny Onoo discussed the short-lived women’s division of WCW, managing Bull Nakano for her match against WWE Hall of Famer Madusa (Alundra Blayze), and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On Madusa vs. Bull Nakano: “Honestly, sitting at ringside, I cannot believe how stiff they were. There was…I don’t want to get hit with any of those clotheslines or some of the bodyslams they were doing to each other. And you remember, those girls would do a double stomp off the top rope…And I had seen it close hand, and it’s…you know, it doesn’t really matter how many sit-ups you do, when you’ve got a 150 lb, how many pounds coming down with both feet on your gut…I know I can’t do it. I can’t take it. But they were so tough, it was amazing.”
On scrapped plans for the WCW women’s division: “Unfortunately, one tip I’ll tell you…[Akira] Hokuto became the first WCW Women’s Champion, and the way we had it laid down was Madusa was going to be the first woman to go back to Japan and try to get that belt back in Japan. And that never materialized, because of a couple of reasons.”
