3 unusual facts about WCW Thunder


Air Paris

After being signed to a deal with World Championship Wrestling in 2000, Parris, under his Air Paris name, debuted for the promotion alongside former NWA Wildside rival A.J. Styles (who was now going by the Air Styles name in that promotion at this time) on the February 14, 2001 episode of Thunder, where they lost to Evan Karagias and Jamie Noble.

Elix Skipper

Seven months later, Skipper began wrestling on Thunder and Nitro under the ring name Skip Over, facing members of the cruiserweight division and fellow Power Plant graduates.

WCW/nWo Revenge

One notable omission, however, who actually was in World Tour, is Ric Flair who was fired from WCW for no-showing an episode of WCW Thunder in early 1998; although, he would be rehired later in the year.
