Tony Schiavone Recalls WCW Owing Him Money, Compares With WWE

During a recent edition of his “What Happened When” podcast, AEW broadcaster Tony Schiavone discussed the Nasty Boys, WWE owing him money, and other topics.

You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:

On the Nasty Boys: “No you know, the Nasty Boys were — I don’t know if notorious is the right word. But they beat up a lot of people. Because that’s what they were, they were nasty, man. This is what Dusty [Rhodes] would call a clubbering.”

On Jerry Sags getting into a scuffle with Bobby Walker: “I do remember hearing about a scuffle that was backstage with the Nasty Boys. And I was — I guess that’s the one with Bobby Walker that I remember hearing about… Normally, when a show goes on and there’s a scuffle backstage, I’m doing the show, so. If it happened before, like the Vader-Paul Orndorff thing, which happened in this building. If it happened right in front of me, I would have seen it. But if it happens during the show, you know.”

On WCW owing him money: “Well you know, when I — WCW owed me for a couple of pay-per-views, because I was paid extra on pay-per-views back then. And when I went to the WWF, I remember telling Bruce Prichard. And Bruce Prichard told Vince or someone, and the WWE lawyer got in touch with Jim Herd and I got the money pronto. It wasn’t much, it was like three grand, right? It wasn’t like $80,000 or anything like that. But I remember thinking, ‘Wow, that happened quickly.’”
