Dangerous Alliance
The Dangerous Alliance is a professional wrestling stable that was active in World Championship Wrestling (WCW) in the 1990s. It had its origins in the American Wrestling Association (AWA) and later moved to Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW). The group derives its name from "Paul E. Dangerously", the ring name of its founder and manager Paul Heyman.
In early 1987, Paul E. Dangerously formed the original Dangerous Alliance with Austin Idol in the Championship Wrestling Association in Memphis and feuded with Jerry Lawler. In April 1987, Tommy Rich joined Dangerously and Idol, as he helped Idol defeated Lawler in a hair vs. hair cage match for the AWA Southern Heavyweight Championship, nearly causing a riot at the Mid-South Coliseum. He would also recruit Jack Hart, Chick Donovan, Eddie Gilbert, Doug Gilbert and Missy Hyatt. They would cause chaos in the CWA, until Dangerously and the Gilberts left Memphis in March 1988, after Eddie threw a fireball at Randy Hales and a parking lot brawl with Jerry Lawler.
In the spring of 1987, Dangerously formed another version of the Dangerous Alliance with Adrian Adonis and The Midnight Express (Dennis Condrey and Randy Rose) in the American Wrestling Association (AWA).
In October 1987, Dangerously successfully led Condrey and Rose to win the AWA World Tag Team Championship from Mid-South legends Jerry Lawler and Bill Dundee, only to lose the titles to The Midnight Rockers (Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty) two months later. Dangerously also helped Adonis in his feud with Tommy Rich and his bid to win the AWA International Television Championship, in which Adonis lost the title in a tournament final to Greg Gagne. By 1988, the Dangerous Alliance disbanded, as Dangerously, Condrey, and Rose left the AWA, while Adonis died that July in a van accident during a tour in Canada.
In April 1988, Dangerously, Gilbert and Hyatt joined Continental Championship Wrestling, renaming it the Continental Wrestling Federation. They reformed the Dangerous Alliance and recruited Ken Wayne, Eddie's brother Doug as the masked Nightmare Freddie, Lord Humungous (until he turned babyface in June 1988), Detroit Demolition, Dirty White Boy, Dirty White Girl and Jerry Stubbs. By the beginning of October 1988, the Alliance had disbanded when Dangerously, Eddie Gilbert and Hyatt left the territory to join World Championship Wrestling.
After Dangerously was "fired" as an announcer for World Championship Wrestling, the precursors to resurrecting his stable came at the Halloween Havoc pay-per-view in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Prior to the show, announcer Eric Bischoff was working as a valet in the parking lot. When Dustin Rhodes and Barry Windham pulled up and got out of their car, the reigning World Tag Team Champions Arn Anderson and Larry Zbyszko ran up to Bischoff and Windham and slammed the car door on Windham's hand, breaking it. It was from this incident that Zbyszko gained his nickname from around this time, "The Cruncher".
Later at the same show, the mysterious WCW Halloween Phantom appeared, and squashed Tom Zenk in a match using a reverse neckbreaker. Then, in an interview segment with Bischoff, Dangerously brought out the Phantom and had him unmask to reveal the returning "Ravishing" Rick Rude. Dangerously stated that even though he had been fired as a commentator, he still had his manager's license, and would use Rude to exact his revenge on the company that fired him.
The storyline was furthered at Clash of the Champions XVII on November 19, 1991 in Savannah, Georgia. At the beginning of the Clash, which was televised live on TBS, WCW United States Heavyweight Champion (and perennial face) Sting was in the ring doing an interview. Madusa came out dressed as a harem girl and distracted Sting so WCW World Heavyweight Champion Lex Luger could attack him from behind by clipping his knee, the same one Sting injured in February 1990. Luger then bashed the knee against the runway repeatedly to make it seem like Sting had suffered severe damage. Several face wrestlers, including Bobby Eaton, ran out to run the heel Luger off and take Sting to the hospital. Sting, however, had to defend his title against Rude that night and did not want to leave. Eaton kept telling him he would have time, so he left. Bischoff rode in the ambulance with Sting and gave live updates on the condition of Sting from the hospital between matches to announcers Jim Ross and Tony Schiavone. Meanwhile, Dangerously had found a loophole in the match contract that specifically stated that if Sting was not able to defend his title, he would have to forfeit it to Rude. The announcers relayed the message to Bischoff, who in turn passed it along to Sting. Commotion could be heard in the background as Sting tried to leave the hospital and return to defend his title. It turned out that Eaton had been conspiring with Dangerously and Rude to ensure Sting did not make it out in time for his title defense.
