Yesterday was the 21st anniversary of WCW's Clash of Champions VI that was held in the Louisana Superdome (yes they were a very hot promotion) and carried live on WTBS.
The main event was another classic between Ricky 'the Dragon" Steamboat and Ric Flair.
Here is the complete card:
The Samoa Swat Team defeated The Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton & Stan Lane ) when Samu pinned Eaton after Fatu hit Eaton with Paul E. Dangerously's phone.

- NWA World Champion Ricky Steamboat defeated Ric Flair in a 2 out of three falls match that lasted over 55 minutes. Ric Flair one the first fall with a small package.
