Title: Night of Champions ’91 & ‘93
Post by: Armageddon on November 21, 2006, 11:40:28 PM


In 91

The beginning of the show opened with 13 tombstones, each bearing the name of one of the 13 who had defected to the newly formed WBF (World Bodybuilding Federation, which folded two years later). Then they busted the tombstones onstage, in which a mad Mike Quinn (one of the defectors) yelled from the audience "You wouldn't be doing that if I was onstage".

In 93

The show started with Dorian Yates, dressed up as a pastor, raise the competitors, which defected to the WBF (which failed in 1993) from Styrofoam caskets, and welcome them back into the IFBB world.


Does anyone have the clip or pix??

They should do the same thing to Preist.

I remember when they did it because they had all the competitors come out in a sheet and break a tombstone, except Yates, who came out in the sheet but refused to break a tombstone, feeling it was disrespectful to the WBF competitors.  Yates went on to win that show with a perfect score, BTW.
