Starrcade '93: 10th Anniversary was the eleventh annual Starrcade professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event. It was the sixth Starrcade event produced by World Championship Wrestling, and it took place on December 27, 1993 from the Independence Arena in Charlotte, North Carolina. This was the first Starrcade to feature Ric Flair since the Starrcade in 1990. The main event was between Vader and Ric Flair for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. The match was made as a result of the double stabbing that occurred between Arn Anderson and Sid Vicious in October. Flair replaced Vicious in his match against Vader. Their feud continued after the event with a Thundercage match at SuperBrawl IV. The event also included The Nasty Boys against Sting and Road Warrior Hawk for the WCW World Tag Team Championship, Rick Rude against The Boss (replacing Davey Boy Smith) for the WCW International World Heavyweight Championship, and a two out of three falls match between Dustin Rhodes and Steve Austin for the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship.〔 == Background == The main feud heading into Starrcade was between Ric Flair and Vader over the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. After leaving WCW in 1991, Ric Flair returned in early 1993. Since then, Flair won the NWA World Heavyweight Championship at Beach Blast for the tenth time in a match with Barry Windham. The title became the WCW International World Heavyweight Championship in September after WCW left the National Wrestling Alliance. Flair then feuded with Rick Rude over the title. Rude won the title at Fall Brawl, and retained the title in rematches. After having defeated Ron Simmons for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship on December 30, 1992, Vader had held the championship since (save for a six-day run by Sting in March 1993).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of the WCW World Championship: Vader )〕 Vader feuded with Davey Boy Smith in May over the title. The feud also involved Sid Vicious and Sting, who formed an alliance with Vader and Smith respectively. Vader then had a short feud with Cactus Jack before being chosen to face Vicious at Starrcade.〔 On October 28, Arn Anderson and Vicious had a fight at a hotel that resulted in a double stabbing.〔 The incident led to Vicious being fired, and Flair challenging Vader to a title match at Starrcade, with Flair also putting his career on the line.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Starrcade (1993)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
