WCW signing Miss Elizabeth created one of the bigger name free agent signings that flew under the radar. Everyone talked about Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Kevin Nash and Scott Hall jumping ship as the changes that also shifted the industry. However, WCW wanted to also add depth of familiar names in every aspect of wrestling.
Miss Elizabeth was easily the most successful female characters in WWE history at the time when she joined WCW. Savage, Hogan and Ric Flair provided names that Elizabeth had a track record with to instantly get involved in storylines. WCW employed the legend for a few years with a few interesting memories flying under the radar.
10 First Heel Turn
WWE never turned Miss Elizabeth heel during her run in the company as a manager and love interest of Randy Savage. Even when Savage turned heel after the feud with Hulk Hogan involving Elizabeth, she left television for him to align with heel manager Sherri Martel.
WCW instantly pulled the trigger of showing a new side of Elizabeth for her first feud. The debut of Elizabeth saw her returning to manage Savage, but she turned heel in their first match back together to help Ric Flair defeat him for the WCW Championship.
9 Paying Off WWE Story With Ric Flair
Miss Elizabeth had a great role in the Randy Savage vs Ric Flair program heading into WrestleMania 8 for the WWE Championship. Flair showed pictures of him with Elizabeth before she met Savage with accusations of them having a relationship.
WCW ran that angle back by having Elizabeth unite with Flair for her heel turn on Savage. The heel turn moment featured Elizabeth handing Flair her show to hit Savage and defeat him. Their previous storyline was later referenced of Flair claiming to win the war against Savage.
8 Joined Four Horsemen Manager List
The shocking turn for Miss Elizabeth to become a heel led to her reaching a rare list of names in wrestling. Ric Flair’s Four Horsemen faction is arguably the greatest of all time with a couple of names joining as managers of the group.
J.J. Dillon was the first manager of the group and is often remembered as a valued part of the act. Miss Elizabeth joined Woman, Debra, Baby Doll, Dark Journey and Fifi the Maid as the valets of the Four Horsemen at different incarnations.
7 Reunited With Randy Savage In NWO
WCW turned Miss Elizabeth heel to have an act without Randy Savage since the two were no longer married. However, that changed when the two were fine with bringing the old act back together on the heel side.
Hulk Hogan and the New World Order harassed Elizabeth to get in the head of Savage until he also joined them. Elizabeth reunited with Savage for them to become a paired act in the New World Order. WCW had Elizabeth primarily manage Savage for over a year in the faction together.
6 Humiliated Kimberly Page
Miss Elizabeth’s heel side peaked during her time with Randy Savage and his feud with Diamond Dallas Page. WCW decided to make the rivalry more personal when Savage and Miss Elizabeth showed off the Playboy magazine shoot of Dallas’ wife Kimberly Page.
The brutal segment culminated with Kimberly coming out crying after Elizabeth spray-painted the NWO letters on her dress, as Savage attacked DDP. Elizabeth shocked the audience by turning into a harsh bully targeting Kimberly.
5 Vince Russo Made Her Wrestle
The end of Miss Elizabeth’s time in WCW featured her having to do some things she was against. One of the underrated controversies of Vince Russo taking over WCW was that he wanted female managers to wrestle, even if they didn’t have formal training.
Elizabeth was tasked to start wrestling later in her career with matches against Daffney, Madusa, Rhonda Sing and Meng. The matches were short, and story based, but Elizabeth did not enjoy having to put her health on the line.
4 Implied Relationship With Eric Bischoff
WCW placed Miss Elizabeth into a few strange storylines to keep her involved in the show. The New World Order splitting into two factions of the Wolfpac and Hollywood led to Elizabeth once again splitting from Randy Savage.
Kevin Nash and Savage were the two biggest members of the Wolfpac, while Elizabeth stayed on the heel side with Hollywood. Eric Bischoff and Elizabeth were tied together on-screen for a few months with her sitting on his lap in backstage segments to imply a romance.
3 Attacking Sting With Baseball Bat
The final role for Miss Elizabeth in WCW was becoming the manager of her new love interest Lex Luger. WCW even changed Luger’s name to The Total Package to show his ego growing for a new heel character feuding with Sting.
Elizabeth teased being stuck in the middle as a face against Lex’s new mentality, but she was tricking Sting. The shocking physical act of Elizabeth hitting Sting with a baseball bat helped Luger get the better of him and make her a stronger heel presence.
2 Controversial Story Involving Goldberg
Miss Elizabeth had one of the worst storylines in WCW history during the infamous night of the finger poke of doom. Kevin Nash was scheduled to defend the WCW Championship against Goldberg, but he was stuck in a police office after Elizabeth filed a report citing accusations against him.
The story was that Elizabeth lied to prevent him from the show and Hulk Hogan instead ended the night as WCW Champion. It was a low angle to have a serious thing like implied assault used as a fake threat to advance a story.
1 Put Her Hair On Line Vs Rey Mysterio's Mask
WCW found an interesting way to utilize the heel character of Miss Elizabeth when she managed the tag team of Lex Luger and Kevin Nash. The Elite version of the New World Order merged both Hollywood and Wolfpac sides as mega-heels.
Konnan was kicked out of the group and teamed with his real-life best friend Rey Mysterio against former Wolfpac teammates Nash and Luger. The match stipulation saw Miss Elizabeth’s hair on the line against Rey’s mask. Elizabeth did not have to shave her head as Nash and Luger won to start Mysterio’s unmasked run for the final two years of WCW.
