John Pollock & Wai Ting look back at WCW Starrcade 1995 featuring WCW vs. NJPW in a “World Cup of Wrestling” tournament.

Seven of WCW’s best are chosen to defend America from the threat of Sonny Onoo and his evil contingent of Japanese wrestlers. Diplomats Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan and Dusty Rhodes guide us on commentary – what could go wrong?

Plus, Randy Savage defends the WCW Championship against either Flair, Luger or Sting.

This event was chosen by Espresso Executive Producer, Kishan Ameerali.
