Center Stage Chronicle is back as Kris Zellner is joined by Rob Naylor and Our Good Buddy Charles to discuss the month of August 1990 in the National Wrestling Alliance and pop culture in general. Topics of discussion include:

• THE PEARL, The New Fantastics, Hector Guerrero, Ivan Koloff, Terry Taylor, and many others make debuts/returns as this month has all kinds of names making appearances.
• Sting having two different convention appearances end in some form of controversy.
• Jim Herd and Ole Anderson beefing over the usage of older talent.
• “Mean” Mark Callous, Paul Orndorff, and more leave the NWA.
• Speculation about The Black Scorpion starts kicking up.
• “Young Guns II,” “Air America,” “My Blue Heaven,” and more hit the theatres.
• Extreme's “Pornograffiti,” Prince's “Graffiti Bridge,” Alice In Chains' “Facelift,” and more ht the stores.
• The TV series adaptation of “Ferris Bueller” debuts on NBC.
• Iraq invades Kuwait and the Desert Storm Conflict has begun.
