WWE Bringing Back WCW's "Great American Bash"

Source: Pro Wrestling Insider

WWE will be reprising a WCW tradition this year. On 6/27 they will present The Great American Bash as a June pay-per-view. The show will take place from Norfolk, Virginia and will be set around an “American-patriot” theme. Promotion photos show Torrie Wilson in a red, white and blue Uncle Sam outfit.

Norfolk is the home of the largest naval base in the world. WWE will also announce that members of the military will be able to view the pay-per-view for free.

The Great American Bash began as a series of summer events promoted by Jim Crockett in the late ‘80s. In July of 1988 the show aired on pay-per-view from Baltimore, Maryland headlined by NWA Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair verses Lex Luger, with Flair coming away victorious once the match was stopped by the State Athletic Commission due to Luger’s excessive bleeding. That night marked NWA’s first event ever available through all cable systems on pay-per-view.

The name was used annually as a NWA/WCW event and later became a WCW tradition.

-----------------------------------

So, we now see where Kurt Angle's "Great American Award" is going in terms of storylines.

A pay-per-view in a city that rarely gets a show? Wow, the military is really starting to kiss ass. But who am I to complain? I live near the city (5-6 more or less), so I guess I'm going.
