Starrcade '90: Collision Course was the eighth annual Starrcade professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Championship Wrestling (WCW). It was the final under the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) banner and the first under the World Championship Wrestling (WCW) banner. It took place on December 16, 1990, from the Kiel Auditorium in St. Louis, Missouri.

The main event was a steel cage match between Sting and The Black Scorpion for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Their feud began when The Black Scorpion debuted and began taunting Sting. Ric Flair was revealed to be The Black Scorpion at the end of the match, and Flair continued to feud with Sting after Starrcade.

Other matches included a street fight between Doom and the team of Arn Anderson and Barry Windham for the NWA World Tag Team Championship, a Texas Lariat Match between Stan Hansen and Lex Luger for the NWA United States Heavyweight Championship and the entire Pat O'Connor Memorial International Cup Tag Team Tournament.[1]
