Pay-Per-View Rewind of: WCW/NWA Capital Combat: The Return of Robocop 19/05/1990: Match 8/Part 8/Conclusion by AverageMansReviews - Spoiler Alarm!

Match/Stipulations: the US Heavyweight Champion Lex Luger vs. the World Heavyweight Champion "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair [with Woman;] for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Steel Cage Match.

Match Attributes:

Match Storyline: 8/10

Crowd Participation: 10/10

Satisfying Conclusion: 10/10

Recommend Watch: 10/10

Match Total: 58/60 - this match is lots of fun.

Comments: as I have just said this match is lots of fun including the aftermath, but I did get lost on the end of this match.

So how come in the Doom vs. The Steiner Brothers Tag Team Championship Match Scott Steiner pushing the Referee over is not a reason to disqualify him and his team and throw out this match.

But Barry Windham [a member of The Four Horseman] attacking Luger with the stipulation of a Steel Cage Match is? Even without the excellent example of Scott Steiner pushing over the Referee I would still be questioning this Steel Cage Match booking decision, because I have been doing some research I found ["The Fiend" Bray Wyatt vs. the Universal Champion Seth Rollins for the Universal Championship at Hell in a Cell 2019, before I receive feedback I know this wasn't a Disqualification it was a Stoppage, but it basically does the same thing in a storyline sense.] But we all remember how well this result was universally received [yes I had forgotten about this match in 2019] but still to be overwhelmingly negative and on a much smaller scale that is what they have done in this Cage Match on this Pay-Per-View in the 1990's, I mean in the 1990's or in 2019 why didn't they just put a 20 minute time limit and have for them to wrestle to a draw problem solved.

Basic Results: Lex Luger picks up the W. here

This Pay-Per-View receives: 7/10, this Pay-Per-View; generally speaking is good, without giving too much away in this version the wrestling, Commentary and the Pay-Per-View storylines of Robocop, Sting, Lex Luger [his health plays a role in this Main Event] and The Four Horseman are clearly the consistent positives of this Event and not forgetting the Crowd Participation for most parts of this Pay-Per-View, but the scripted/constructed conclusions of these matches are in hindsight in some cases poor, just to clarify I'm not talking about the results of these matches, I'm talking about what happens to get us there.

The highest ranking match on this Card based on attributes that we see would be: the US Heavyweight Champion Lex Luger vs. the World Heavyweight Champion "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair [with Woman;] for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Steel Cage Match with 58/60.

The lowest ranking match on this Card based on attributes that we see would be: "Precious" Paul Ellering vs. Theodore "Sugar Ray" R. Long: Manager vs. Manager/Hair vs. Hair Match with 13/60
