- Today marks the 20th anniversary of Ron Simmons becoming the first African American World Champion by defeating Vader in WCW. WWE has posted the full match on their website at this link. Jim Ross also penned a column on WWE.com about Simmons' historic victory.

"I recall proudly standing in the CNN Center in Atlanta where hundreds and hundreds of fans and Turner employees filled the common area for a reception in honor of the new champ," Ross recounted. "It was a joyous day. Tears flowed and young children saw that dreams could be realized if one utilized their God-given talents, worked hard and refused to give up on their dreams.

"I have been blessed and privileged to have broadcast many amazing bouts in my career, but looking back, arguably, I cannot say that I ever called one with more social significance than Aug. 2, 1992. That day, Ron Simmons proudly rose to the top of the mountain and achieved victory for the most important race of all ? the human race."
