On this episode of What Happened When, we jump back into the panel van and head back to 1993 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the debut of the shockmaster! Yup! Tony and Conrad are watching Clash Of The Champions XXIV and the unforgettable appearance of the Shockmaster. It was on a segment of "Flair for the Gold" and was, without a doubt, capsuled what was wrong with WCW. Find out how they came up with the costume and how they changed things at the end to cause the "trip" that forever changed the career of Fred Ottman. Plus Flair and Sting team together, the Horsemen win the World Tag Team Championship and Ricky Steamboat becomes the TV Champion...and we throw in Vader and Davey Boy Smith for good measure.
