Buried my papa today. The man raised me and supported my wrestling addiction. Watching your videos gives me a warm fuzzy feeling i sorely need. WRESTLING BIOS RULES!!!!!
Just reading that makes me feel very sad. I know there is a part of you that will never fully recover, but I hope things have gotten at least somewhat better for you since that horrible day.
Know you are not alone my brother! My late father and i also had a strong bond watching wrestling so the fact its made fun of i get but it doesnt phase my love of it bc of said bond with my father so just know you are not alone
Sorry for your loss. I lost my dad several years ago, and I used to watch WCW with him like a religion. I agree these videos make me feel like he is right here next to me still at times.
in 2010 I was 26, Lost my dad to cancer as well as my 2 year old son later that year due to a malfunctioning space heater, from Sunbeam. It's safety failed causing the temp to continuously build with no governor I lost him to hyperthermia and woke up hearing someone tell me, don't hurt me man.. Sawyers dead. 14th anniversary of his death is the 16th of this month (Dec). He'd be 16 in May. . . Stay strong brother. Remember he's keeping an eye on ya.
Guys who said 'that doesn't work for me, brother.' Laughed when I first heard it and laughed again watching the full season video! That and Arquette falling are the highlights for me. Hopefully a new season, or maybe a wwf version down the line.
I just wanna say your attention to detail and hard work is why I continue to watch this great channel. Reliving these great memories and things that get overlooked as a wrestling fan. Thank you very much.
In India, back in 98, wwf was all there was, wcw was on turner network, back then cable was new and there wasn’t enough info. I happened upon one episode and saw hulkster and then I knew I ran into something. No one else knew about it or how to find it, this was before digital tv. Your whole channel takes me back to good times 😢😊
@@sherrix6881 in fairness, being the one guy who can tell all of his friends about the 'cool' show that only you know about/have access to sounds pretty damn good. You're the coolest kid in school for those 15 minutes every week.
"You do know that Oz isn't a person, but a geographical location..." Hahaha, priceless! This definitely more than makes up for Nash's mix-up of adjectives & verbs a few years down the road.
@@matthewgabbard6415What you say is true, also he was known as Oz the great and terrible. But I must point out that "the wizard of Oz" semantically Kevin Nash would be correct lol
This series is great- watched all individually. All in one now... perfect. Like a crockpot, just set it and forget it. Love listening to these long compilation videos.
Liz was awesome. She always looked put together regardless of the bumps, the perfect damsel in distress character for decades. Kinda like a silent movie actress, she wasn’t a talker, but a master of storytelling regardless. So sad she and Sherri passed so young, Sherri was the opposite, great on the mic, made herself ugly and a hot mess to tell her story. Couldn’t have been cuter and sweeter in real life. I didn’t appreciate how good they were as a kid, lots of fun memories. Wish I got to listen to their podcast in 2024 :) .
The decline of Lex Luger and him becoming basically an upper mid carder with not even a single look at the big belt is because a pill addiction made him unreliable.
Thunder could have been a great platform for up and coming talent, midcarders, and even let the enhancement talent get a few licks and wins in to work with newbies and teach them live in the ring and instead... Well... We got Russo's Shitshow of Mystery and Wonder... It was a mystery what it was all about, and it kept us wondering what the hell he was thinking.
Dang it! I've watched them individually... Now I'm going to have to watch the whole season together too! Well it's not like I'm spending my time watching the current wrestling programs, so at least there's that.
Thanks for doing this. I started watching wrestling with my grandpa when I was very young back in the late 70s and I've see it evolve and devolve then evolve several times. I will say that I was really involved with the WCW vs WWF,,,,, yes I said "F", rival in the mid late 1990s. These videos are really great, thanks again.
I clicked on this not realizing it was 3 1/2 hours. Certainly wasn't planning on watching anything that long. I enjoyed every minute and subbed. Thank you for a great video.
This is quickly becoming my favorite channel on RUclips. I can't get into this new stuff. But goin back thru all these from my childhood has been a blast. Thx dude keep up the great work 💪
Raven and Kid Rock "Getting down to the real business" during commentary of planning "After party" had me dying. The handshakes and chumming it up was priceless.
looking back here, i think david flairs time in wcw and also the filthy animals faction need an own episode. the first for the mix of awkwardness and entertainment and the second as well... eddie, kidman, rey....
The Battle Dome bit makes me think someone watched an action movie and tried to recreate it as safely as possible. WCW sent one headliner, two mid carders and one jobber. I'm sure you can figure out who's who.
Sad thing is I was kid through most of this and grew up in a family that loved wrestling so I had to watch all of this all the way through the attitude Era too
Bret doesn't deserve the criticism he faces. If any of us had to deal with what he did in that stretch between 1997 and 2001, we'd all probably just as bitter
Sting would have been noticably more popular than Hogan if Sting had gotten the same kind of exposure Hulk did during the late 80's early 90's. Surfer Sting was always "Way Cooler" and i think is the best Sting.🤷♂️
I think I was busy eating sand at my age when this was getting aired, so these videos really helped me learn more about the wrestlers wrestling back then. I often know them by name but have no idea of their run in the company. Thanks
Lex as Sting is the funniest thing ever! And why didnt they make Ghost Lex an actual character. Imagine choreographing and entire match with Ghost Lex. And the live audience can watch it unfold on the Trinitron but when they look in the ring all they see is someone wrestling by themselves. It could have been incredible. Ghost Lex would have changed the face of sports entertainment!!!!!
David Arquette in WCW might have been painful to fans at the time (though through seeing more behind the scene footage, it really opened my eyes to where Arquette heart was, and where WCW management had theirs), but at least it was not as painful as bringing Logan Paul into WWE...
If you're ever going to have a second season of WCW Blunder, here are a few good ideas/suggestions: David Flair & Stacy Keibler's "wedding" and "pregnancy," the MadTV/WCW crossover between Bret Hart vs. Will Sasso, and Oklahoma
36:33 makes me wonder if they didnt like him orrrr was this around the time wwf/e was using the beautiful people for smackdowns theme? I could be wrong
Watching the New York Rules match with the tag teams, I don't know how you'd set it up. But I need New Day vs. Pretty Deadly with that stip immediately.
To be fair, there's a reason why there were different WCW and WWF fans. I'm pretty sure a lot of the WCW crowd were more appreciative of the shorter match times than the WWF crowd.
Episode 1: How dumb end-stage WCW was doesn't fully sink in until you're watching this and somebody comes in and asks: "What's 'Fun-b'?". Episode 4: Legend has it Kazuhiro Hayashi is still using Glacier's gear to this day.
Actually Lex turned heel during the infamous finger poke of doom on Jan 4th 1999. He was a member of nWo elite. Which is why when he returned after injury I knew he was lying about Hogan and that it was a swerve. Lex was at his peek in 97 when he took the title off Hogan. After that people just stopped caring about Lex. Mostly coz he had the same matches and he wasn't very good in the mic
Я очень очень Люблю смотреть этот вид спорта. Я давно смотрю Рестлинг Спасибо Вам огромное за то что Вы делаете такие шедевры. Здоровья и Счастья Удачи Вам. МИРА Добра и Благополучия.
It's funny listening to Bischoff on 83 Weeks constantly ragging on AEW for being trash. But, honestly, nothing AEW does is as pathetic as Bischoff/Russo WCW.
1:23:11 Someone correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t there a Killer Instinct (a fighting game in the Arcade & on N64 made by Rare) character called Glacier and the font and design WCW used for Glacier in their vignettes was identical to what Rare used for their character Glacier in the Killer Instinct game?
People act like Arquette came in and squashed Goldberg with an all offensive powerhouse showcase. This is wrestling. He could’ve been booked to just destroy his opponent. It was a fluke finish… it wasn’t the worst thing that can happen. IWC is LAME and always has been
Oh hey look I found Vince Russo lol In all seriousness though you're kinda right, yea WCW in 2000 sucked but still it was way better than, let's say, Raw in 2017-20
39:23 seeing as how back then Rey & Billy were best friends, I like to imagine they were just having a chat or a cuddle up there on the top rope, j chilling and taking a break mid match
im not even into wrestling anymore but these videos really helping me get through a tough personal time...cheers mate
Keep your head up my dude, things will get better.
Jim Cornette podcasts are great therapy
Things will get better my friend! Watch some wrestling (not AEW please God) and it’ll help pass time and you’ll enjoy it.

Those double axe handles by Savage, along with the sound effects is the one for me 😂

The amount of work that goes into all these videos is great. I really appreciate them.
“That doesn’t work for me brother” gets me everytime lmao.
can just picture Hogan not agreeing to anything they wanted haha
Hahah it's a subtle way to specifically mean Hogan without actually saying it
I don't know why but seeing Rob Zombie between Jimmy Hart & Larry Zybisco made me laugh loudly for like 30 seconds straight.
Jericho calling Kid Rock "Rock Kid" will never not be hilarious.
The decline of Lex Luger and him becoming basically an upper mid carder with not even a single look at the big belt is because a pill addiction made him unreliable.
Arquette falling through the gimmicked floor legit had me in tears
The biggest WCW blunder was not strapping the rocket to true stone ‘cold’ killer Glacier!!! 🧊
I've watched that arquette falling through the floor 7x and I'm in bits. Never knew that happened
Often I fall asleep to youtube and wakeup to a random video from your collection. Always a nice surprise when waking up.
Thunder could have been a great platform for up and coming talent, midcarders, and even let the enhancement talent get a few licks and wins in to work with newbies and teach them live in the ring and instead... Well... We got Russo's Shitshow of Mystery and Wonder...

It would have been interesting to see if Bischoff got to split the rosters.

Battle Dome was awesome and yes, binge watching a show does get old fast.
Ahh Battle Dome such a wave of nostalgia hearing that name...the humble beginning of Terry "T-Money" Crews lol
Genius format 😆 couldn't hold anymore laughing, especially Arquette disappearing and your way all the stupid shows annoying you so wonderful 😂
Raven and Kid Rock "Getting down to the real business" during commentary of planning "After party" had me dying. The handshakes and chumming it up was priceless.
Lex has been my favorite for the last 35 years.
And wow. Crazy to think it has been that long already since Sting and Luger were young up and comers!
@post-apocposadistspacedolp5764 me either, when I hear Lex my first thought is the failed Lex Express.
...I just turned 35...
You are a liar
I havnt laughed so hard when David Arquette fell threw the gimmick floor... thanks for all ur hard work!!!

Watching this in preparation for season two.
I've watched them all but lets watch them again great work as always wrestling bios how was your break man
Aaw man I never realized how finite all these fun wcw videos are in amount and longevity...I'll miss them
The Battle Dome bit makes me think someone watched an action movie and tried to recreate it as safely as possible. WCW sent one headliner, two mid carders and one jobber. I'm sure you can figure out who's who.
Is nobody gonna talk about David's timing at 3:18:00? He timed that perfectly
The Arquette moment is when I stopped flipping between WCW and WWF and just watched WWF.
Mad knowing this is 22 years ago. Makes you feel old AF
Edit: I was 8 years old at the time and thanks for the likes.
I know. Mad right.
As long as it doesn't feel 22 years ago, I'm alright with it.
I was 3 lol
I am just wondering, along with WWE and WCW, have you thought of doing a series for ECW as well? Just curious.
this is so hilarious to watch, thanks for putting the vid together mate
Can't wait for season 2 of this :-D and maybe a WWE equivalent one day
Sad thing is I was kid through most of this and grew up in a family that loved wrestling so I had to watch all of this all the way through the attitude Era too
That dude playing guitar on roller skates lives near Venice beach and plays guitar everyday skating around and smiling at people, he's God
“You can’t let something that happened 20 years ago in wrestling make you mad”
Jim Cornette and Bret hArt: hold my beer

Bret doesn't deserve the criticism he faces. If any of us had to deal with what he did in that stretch between 1997 and 2001, we'd all probably just as bitter
dude these videos are so fuckin good, cant believe the effort you put into all of these
I loveeee when you put complete seasons! Thank you!
Help me spread the word...Goldberg was just a mildly updated Ultimate Warrior. Most ppl miss the similarities.
Sting would have been noticably more popular than Hogan if Sting had gotten the same kind of exposure Hulk did during the late 80's early 90's. Surfer Sting was always "Way Cooler" and i think is the best Sting.🤷♂️
I reckon they could've done something more with glacier but it was very difficult as a mid carder to get anywhere in WCW .
I loved the Glacier character back in the day.
I think I was busy eating sand at my age when this was getting aired, so these videos really helped me learn more about the wrestlers wrestling back then. I often know them by name but have no idea of their run in the company. Thanks

Great video
i only watched wrestling from 2004-2008 completely forgot about it until hyperfixation got me and now im here
WCW is still a Great Promotion to reflect on ….
Watching the New York Rules match with the tag teams, I don't know how you'd set it up. But I need New Day vs. Pretty Deadly with that stip immediately.
To be fair, there's a reason why there were different WCW and WWF fans. I'm pretty sure a lot of the WCW crowd were more appreciative of the shorter match times than the WWF crowd.
Episode 1: How dumb end-stage WCW was doesn't fully sink in until you're watching this and somebody comes in and asks: "What's 'Fun-b'?".

Actually Lex turned heel during the infamous finger poke of doom on Jan 4th 1999. He was a member of nWo elite. Which is why when he returned after injury I knew he was lying about Hogan and that it was a swerve. Lex was at his peek in 97 when he took the title off Hogan. After that people just stopped caring about Lex. Mostly coz he had the same matches and he wasn't very good in the mic
Apparently the first week of January is always a work.. in all aspects of life…

Kevin Sullivan was one of the worst bookers ever in WCW. Right there with Russo.
Yes my man back with the videos.
You put out content and I'll watch it all.
Can't believe Terry Crews and Mike O'Hearn shared TV screen time 😮
People need to get over the Arquette thing and just embrace the dude for being a good person.
As far as I'm concerned...he retroactively earned that title run with his work on the Indies.
The Darkside Hulk Hogan gimmick was one of the worst ever! 😂
The best part of Kimberley’s promo was the guitar shot lmfao
39:23 seeing as how back then Rey & Billy were best friends, I like to imagine they were just having a chat or a cuddle up there on the top rope, j chilling and taking a break mid match
I think Luger did work heel as part of nwo elite
Is KISS really anyone's favorite band, and if so who are these people? I guess you had to be a certain age during the mid to late 70's to get it.
Yeah I'd guess 50/60 year olds lol
That David Arquette part at 21:52 has me in tears trying not to wake up my gf who's sleeping. Oh my god
