Magnificent Seven (WCW)

**The One** · 05-16-2008, 11:43 AM

The group was...

Ric Flair
Scott Steiner (World Champ)
Rick Steiner (eventually US Champ)
Jeff Jarrett
Lex Lugar
Buff Bagwell
Animal

Plus they had a couple of hoes hanging around with them. Anyway it kind of formed because Ric Flair was CEO, and at Sin (I think that was the January PPV) Steiner, Jarrett and a mystery guy were going to face Sid in a World Title match. Big reveal; Animal...and no one cared. Basically they all gangbanged on Sid until his leg snapped. Scotty retains, and over the next few weeks Ric Flair kind of reveals as the mastermind behind it all. I think it was like a month or so later that Rick joined up (by turning on Nash in a tag match), Buff and Lex more or less got thrown in as ass kissing to Flair since he was CEO.

At one point I remember them teasing than Animal was going to leave the group, and I think there was even a point when someone was randomly laid out. The main purpose was to feud with the main baby at the time and make it seem like they overcame 7 not just one; Sid, Nash and Booker.

To be honest I think the angle had some potential, but it's entire run is so overshadowed by the death of WCW, that a lot of things from around that time just kind of disappeared; like the Cruiserweight Tag division or Kid Kash's undefeated WCW career.
