This is from Stevie Ray's brand new podcast from Title Match Wrestling Network! Joined by co-host Matt Topolski, Stevie Ray shares yet another story none of us had ever heard before. This time it involves Vader (Leon White). During our 1st ever LIVE Q&A show on KZread, a fan named Supercool asked if anyone had ever tried to shoot on Stevie Ray or Booker T in the ring. Stevie Ray then shared something that made our jaws drop! Who knew that Stevie and Vader actually got into it at WCW BattleBowl 1993! The match was Stevie Ray & Charlie Norris vs Vader & Cactus Jack (aka Mick Foley). First, Stevie recalls Vader stiffing Charlie Norris in the ring...minutes later that's when the problems really started.

He gets the credit from the hard-core fans, just hard because his brother is Booker T.
Stevie Ray is VERY underrated and underappreciated. He deserves WAY more credit and respect than what he's given

But a good wrestler can cover the weaknesses of a bad wrestler. Flair did it for decades. Goldberg and Stevie Ray are an example of two bad wrestlers who couldn't cover themselves, much less each other. Booker covered for Stevie for years as part of Harlem Heat and when they got broken up, Booker became the most decorated WCW champion in the company's history having won 21 titles and a Triple Crown winner. Stevie just got a TV Title win (which he DIDN'T win...he got to defend it by 'power of attorney' when Booker got injured) with the belt split 3 ways between him, Chavo Guerrero, and Chris Jericho.

Vader (God rest his soul) was man enough to admit he was wrong, Stevie Ray not only being man enough to squash it on site but also for telling this story. That's what is called keeping it real. You make a mistake, you own up to it and settle it. Much respect to Vader the greatest big man athlete, and Stevie Ray, apart of one the greatest tag teams in WCW and man's man.

I really appreciate Stevie Ray's wisdom and insight when it comes to dealing with difficult personalities
At about 10 minutes into Battle Bowl 93, the following happens: Stevie Ray does a flying clotheslines on Cactus Jack. At first glance, it looks like Ray could be going in for the pin. This is when Vader comes it. By the time he gets in, it's clear that Ray isn't going for the pin, getting up instead notices Vader. The referee redirects Vader back out while Ray is still pissed. Vader begins to climb out, swinging his left leg first over the middle rope as Ray advances Throwing his arms up and down once enraged that Vader was in the ring. This is where Ray throws epitaphs at Vader. At this point, You can see on Vader's face this pisses him of quick, as left foot doesn't even touch the ring apron before reversing course and advancing towards Ray. Ray backs up slighting while the ref tries to break this up, but begins to move in to stand ground. Vader pushes the ref aside and swings on Ray. The two exchange blows quick shoot blows with Ray showing off some impressive bobbing and weaving boxing style while Vader swings his arms to maul him. Vader's advancement on Ray, Ray's left cross punch, and Vader going down all happens in one quick blur, but one can see it if you repeatedly pause during the play.

@@evergreenrider I agree that that's possible. Real fights and hits can happen so fast that it you can't always clearly tell what happened. Guaranteed Ray hasn't analyzed this like us marks have, so thinking back to the heat of the moment, I can see how Ray may legit have thought he delivered a blow to Vader that put him down. Either way, there was clearly a misunderstanding over whether Ray was going for the pin after the clothesline on Foley, epitaphs spoken, and Vader was not having it. He clearly rushed Ray and fell forward.

@@adamfein4970 They had a little scrap and Steve did land but Vader looked like he was off balance while charging forward, he popped right up like nothing happened. Norris on the other hand looked rocked by the short clothesline. Which is probably why Stevie wasn't playing with Vader. Vader looks like he is in serious pain at the end from hurting his back and Cactus Jack just gives him a pass.

These Stevie Ray stories are amazing. The humor he injects in them is just icing on the cake.
I love this guy's stories, 100% believable. You can always tell when someone is lying or exaggerating - not him. The way he talks, it's clear he speaks the truth.
Stevie Ray has such great stories and is so articulate - could listen to him all day!
Love you Stevie Ray. Thanks for being a part of the reason I'll always be down with WCW. I'm a huge Harlem Heat fan and bless you and Booker T. My guys! Peace!

WOW.....this is DEEP AF💯Thank you for sharing Stevie Ray!
I just saw that BattleBowl match and Stevie ain't lying. Vader shot on him and he responded and punched Vader and he fell face first. You could see Stevie ducking and weaving and then laying Vader out. You could also see Vader get up in shock.

@@bsadiq718 I agree. I just watched the clip 3 or 4 times and is not how Stevie Ray portrays it. Ray just slapped the side/back of Vader's head who then stumbled to the ground briefly, but quickly recovered. I also didn't see Ray screaming at Vader afterward like he said he did.
He is spot on when he refers to differences in reasonings and backgrounds of people. Others just cannot articulate that. Just my $.02
I read the title as "when Vader shot me" but in fact he was the one who almost got shot 😬

I don't think people get it man, dude made it to the NFL, his whole life athletics were a competition. It isn't as simple as "just turning it off", especially when that adrenaline gets flowing, you have an audience going nuts. A good amount of the notorious stiffs in pro wrestling were former athletes that ended up in wrestling for one reason or another.
Now I know where all of the wisdom in the world has gone. Stevie Ray has acquired so much that there isn't enough left for the rest of the world.
I get upset at myself or Stevie Ray because now I can't stop listening and I need to get rest ... 🧱🏙
