The Most Obscure and Forgotten Champions in WCW History

The Most Obscure and Forgotten Champions in WCW History

Originally, I intended to start this series after finishing my "Wrestlers you may have forgotten held a title" series but then I realized that 2021 is the 30th Anniversary of when NWA became WCW and next year has milestone anniversaries for New Japan, ROH, Impact, ECW, and All Japan so why not save those articles for next year even though I did one on New Japan already? Anyway, in my last series, I brought up wrestlers the average fans pretty much knows but may have forgotten they held a title in a promotion and so far I did one for New Japan and WCW. To continue WCW's anniversary, I will begin this series with them as I cover champions that the average fan barely remembers and would go "Who?". This article will take a look at the most forgettable and most obscure champions in WCW history. Like my previous WCW article, I'm only covering from January 1991-March 2001 so nothing from the Jim Crockett/NWA days or WWF owned WCW.

Vampire Killer: A Look At Castlevania 35 Years Later

Vampire Killer: A Look At Castlevania 35 Years Later

If you haven't guessed already by my video game articles from this year, 1986 was a big year for the video game industry with one legendary franchise after another debuting. We've already talked about some of Nintendo's franchises like The Legend of Zelda and Metroid but they weren't the only company churning out a game that kickstarted a legendary franchise as 1986 saw the video game company Konami debut Castlevania. Taking place in the late 17th century, Castlevania tells the story of Simon Belmont, the latest in a long line of vampire hunters as he ventures into Castlevania to be the latest in his family to slay Count Dracula. Castlevania would launch a franchise and become one of the greatest platforming/side-scrolling games ever created. With the 35th anniversary on September 26th, let's look back at the game that started it all.
