Honky Tonk Man's New Look & WCW Rings Re-Emerge: Ten Things You May Have Missed In Wrestling This Week
I had a really funny joke written for this part but Peacock removed it...
4. What Happened To The WCW Rings?
This past week marked a significant anniversary, as twenty years have now passed since the final episode of WCW Nitro and the sale of World Championship Wrestling to WWE.
Plenty of wrestling personalities took to social media to mark the occasion, but one of the most interesting tweets about the defunct organisation was concerning the whereabouts of one of the old Nitro ring canvases.
As shared by the Twitter account WrestleMap, the canvas somehow ended up on the island of Trinidad and is still used by the promotion New Evolution Wrestling. Judging by the picture, the canvas is about twice the size of the ring they use and somebody is just asking to twist their ankle running on the thing.
If anyone knows how it got there, I'd love to know.
