Hey everyone. Just noticed a mistake in the video edit in regards to Goldberg's streak. It shows the same match at 23:44. Here's the Saturday Night Dark match : www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=44121 Here's the Thunder Dark Match: www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=6241 Sorry about that.
Years from now we’re all going to look back on this channel and this series as one of the best wrestling channels and reviews on RUclips. You should be very proud of yourself. This is great content and you’re separating yourself from the others.
That's what's missing frm wrestling now...PPV's don't have it's own unique look anymore, everything is all the same...I use to love watching WCW Sunday night or WWF Sunday Night Heat just to get a glimpse at how the PPV set will look that night
@@shady3legend absolutely! Was too poor to order most ppvs as a kid, so used to catch heat to see the set, and then turn on the fuzzy ppv channel just to listen and see images through the static here and there. lol Sometimes you would actually be able to catch a full match here and there if your were lucky. good times.
The cool thing about Malone vs Rodman too was it wasn't just two random ball players they were actively going against each other in the playoffs for championships and played the same power forward position, so these guys had real life beef too, Rodman and the Bulls beating Malone and the Jazz in the finals 2 years in a row
In fairness, Rodzilla did that in his day job, too. One of the most legendary stories is that he took off from a Finals game with the Bulls to go rage in Las Vegas for 3 days, then turned up to the next game and played without having gone to sleep at all between games
People tend to forget how many amazing matches Jericho and Mysterio have had in their careers. Twenty-five years later they're still going. How can they not be two of the greatest ever?
The fact Bret was fighting for the TV title shows WCW didn’t had the slightest clue what to do with him. Also Goldberg was the champ and still wasn’t main eventing pay per views brother
If I were a wrestler, I’d watch old WCW tapes daily because they’re always showing unique moves (mostly from the cruiserweights) that very few people do nowadays on TV (in the Americas).
I see a lot of unique stuff happening just not as much in WWE. That isn't a knock on the wrestlers mind you it is just they have limitations on what they are allowed to do which hamper their creativity in the ring.
It’s kinda sad looking back at how mentally checked out Bret already was at this point. You can tell he’s still doing his best to be professional, but you can also clearly see that his heart just isn’t in it.
I think the giant was beginning to get more and more checked out of WCW and I believe Paul Wight has even said the WCW backstage was very different to the WWF and exhausting so I really don't blame him for his feelings around this time
Its a good thing WCW and Rodman were done after this, I wouldn't even want to think what would have happened if he was still around at the time Scott really went hard on his addictions and started showing up drunk to shows.
When I was a kid my grandfather took me fishing on the lake and told me he wanted to share something really important with me, he said "Don't turn your back on the Wolfpac.. you might end up in a body bag.".
Ladies and Gentlemen this man never fails to not only deliver episode after episode of fun and nostalgia but also throws in these unexpected surprises like the Pantera remix. Always look forward to Reliving the war.
One of the more underrated ppvs of the late 90s imo i loved this one it showed just how good the roaster at this point could be when the spotlight wasnt just all over the nWo
It was most definitely the undercard who were the backbone of WCW. When they started to leave it was all but a matter of time for WCW. There was no way to climb the ladder as the older stars didn’t want to give to their spot.
I wish someone would do a voiceover edit with Schiavone calling every move a sidewalk slam. Spinning neck breaker? Sidewalk Slam! Frankensteiner? Sidewalk Slam! Drop Toehold? Sidewalk Slam!!!
On this day in 1998 I had just turned 13. I didn’t watch wrestling but loved WCW vs nWo world tour. We went to my dad’s friends house and this PPV was on. The Eddie v Chavo match hooked me, but I was still wondering where that goofy Buff Bagwell was from the n64 game.
Fastastic Pantera reference in the intro. I loved your previous Pantera piece in past videos pertaining to EL Pantera in action, with the Cowboys from Hell snippet slotted in. The intro here, walking in like that was bloody genius.
I watched Nitro every week around this time. Back in 98. With my Dad, who sadly passed away during 2015. One of his favourite moments of Nitro was Chavo coming to the ring on his hobby horse 😂
The second most HYPED intro behind the reliving the war weekly intro. My goodness the Goldberg and Pantera mash up with the entrances goes together like peanut butter and jelly. Mixed to perfection
My dude you really kill it every week with your presentation, I catch all you videos and your music mashups seem to fit everyone one of them perfectly, even the decision to use wcw/nwo revenge theme music for reliving the war is perfect, keep up the great work.
That goldberg/Pantera mix was amazing!!!!! Wrestling Bios, everything you do for this channel is amazing. You are my favorite channel and ywhen they talk abou the best wrestling channels, you should easily be at the top. Thank you!
The Guerreros are truly brilliant to be able to get all of that beautiful nonsense over in front of that crowd. Eddie was absolute comic gold and was even better with Chavo. This is what happens when people just “get” professional wrestling. They both know it isn’t just about work rate, because if it were, they could still outwork and outperform 99.99% of other pro-wrestlings who were living in 1998. Absolutely wonderful.
This one of the earliest I've ever been to one of your videos lol. Thank you for all the amazing work and content you put out, it's always a banger whenever you drop and we love and appreciate all the time and effort and everything you do to provide us with quality content!
It sucks that Rodman messed up the match because Malone had a great look, tons of energy, acted excited to be there, and did the work. The match could have been so much better if Rodman had control over his impulses for just one measly night. SMH
Well to get Rodman control his impulses you needed authority figures like Isiah Thomas/Chuck Daly or Michael Jordan/Phil Jackson! Next to those pairings Hogan/Bischoff are a little pale! But Malone clearly was amped to go!
Bash at the Beach 1998 was where the nWo storyline should have ended, with a close to one year build of their downfall, with Sting leading the charge and having Bret Hart come in to help win the day. But what else can be said except "Hogan and Bischoff".
@@lexkanyima2195 Simple, Sting should have won without the shitty finish. I would have done was have the nWo interfere and Bret Hart comes in to save Sting and beating down Hogan for Sting to apply his finisher and win. Set up a rivalry between Hogan and Hart down the road, with a new group rising with Sting and Hart leading it against the nWo. By the time of Bash at the Beach, the entire PPV is both sides fighting for control of the company, ending with the nWo forced into disband due to the conditions of the losing team forced to do so. And then move on to a Sting vs Hart championship match.
@@lexkanyima2195 Simple, he can stay a heel and lead his own group from the remnants of the nWo or turn face again. Although staying heel would do him some good. And besides, Hogan is about as high up someone be in the wrestling world, he could lose a bunch of matches all at once and it wouldn't hurt him.
7:03 That drawing of Stevie Ray made me think of the Contra 3 characters shown after clearing a stage. It's Time For Revenge. Let's Attack Aggressively.
I love your ppv reviews but I think you should cover ecw’s first ppv in 1997 considering the lawler vs ecw feud technically was a part of the Monday night war too just saying that was a good ppv too
I remember just getting into pro wrestling at this time when I was 13. This was the first PPV we bought. We were so bored we never watched WCW again. I was wwf all the way from that point on. I am so thankful for this series and channel to finally see the gems that were in WCW. Thank you for your great work! Kick or be kickin'!!!!
Been really looking forward to this one. My first ever ppv I saw, my mom bought it for me on VHS for my bday. I was a WWF fan at that time but that didn't matter I was so excited to watch it!
Great analysis of the PPV. It was the first PPV my parents let me buy, and we (my friends and I) were extremely disappointed. As I think back now, this was the first time I remember actually thinking “WW[E] might have a better product.” I was always a WCW kid because a family friend had told me it was better when I was younger and I had believed him right up to this PPV.
The dance move that chavo does during his match with eddie is called a can-opener. Think about it, it vaguely looks like you're a giant can opener when you do it
That hybrid intro theme was amazing! Way better than some of those WWE hybrid themes when they pair two random guys together that one Booker T and RVD had a long time ago. Speaking of, using RVD's old ECW entrance theme of Pantera's Walk made me imagine what RVD and Goldberg as a tag team would've looked like. Great stuff as always.
Hey everyone. Just noticed a mistake in the video edit in regards to Goldberg's streak. It shows the same match at 23:44.
Here's the Saturday Night Dark match : www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=44121
Here's the Thunder Dark Match: www.cagematch.net/?id=1&nr=6241
Sorry about that.
It’s all good bro, everyone makes a botch
Love your channel brotha keep up with the Jam
That intro song was just perfect brother
7:02
Ha, a mistake! I knew you were human!
I WAS GONNA SAY!!!!

Yeah, this page is really well done. The flow is second to none
not only is it one of the best but i will one up it and say this channel is one of the better ones on youtube.
Facts
Well hopefully when he’s done with this series, he can start the Thursday night wars.😏
Doesn’t need to be years from now
The sets on WCW were the best ever. Really made the PPV feel a bit more special.
That is sorely missing even the announcing team dressed up for the occasion wearing Hawaiian shirts
Especially the Halloween Havoc sets.
That's what's missing frm wrestling now...PPV's don't have it's own unique look anymore, everything is all the same...I use to love watching WCW Sunday night or WWF Sunday Night Heat just to get a glimpse at how the PPV set will look that night

FACTS.
Jericho still hasn't retired? Is he in debt?
Jericho hasn't had a great match in 10 years
How that dropkick into Chavo's back didn't put him in a wheelchair astounds me. Holy hell that was brutal.
Yeah I winced when I saw that.
Maybe he's super flexible.
Guerreroes are flexible family from the EMLL (CMLL) they are luchadores and very flexible.
For real
He is flexible and Eddie know it. He wouldn't probably do a kick like that against Goldberg or other wrestler.
The fact Bret was fighting for the TV title shows WCW didn’t had the slightest clue what to do with him. Also Goldberg was the champ and still wasn’t main eventing pay per views brother
As far as ppvs outside of Halloween havoc and starrcade he did a whole not of nothing
A time travelling Vince McMahon takes notes for booking CM Punk as WWE Champion in 2012-13
Eddie vs Chavito will never be boring. Could watch those two all day every day, twice on Sunday.
When Kidman was more serious , he had a lot of "Bret Hart" in his presence. Would have liked the two to work together
Never realized pantera and goldberg go so well together
That intro was 🔥🔥🔥
Seriously
Next time somebody wins a "5 minutes alone with the manager" situation he should mix in 5 minutes alone by Pantera
I really enjoy his mixes. They get better every time
It's as good as when Pantera would wrestle and he kept playing cfh
If I were a wrestler, I’d watch old WCW tapes daily because they’re always showing unique moves (mostly from the cruiserweights) that very few people do nowadays on TV (in the Americas).
I see a lot of unique stuff happening just not as much in WWE. That isn't a knock on the wrestlers mind you it is just they have limitations on what they are allowed to do which hamper their creativity in the ring.

wcw was giving him nothing.... it is painful to re-watch.
I agree. I watch along with the episodes to connect better with the series and it is hard to watch Brett so checked out. They truly wasted him in WCW.
@@jeffbeckinc Bret was screwed big times
WCWs roster was almost too stacked at this time they had so many legends of wrestling but had some of the worst booking ever seen
@@jameshill3403 because of that, they aren't able to build new stars
I think the giant was beginning to get more and more checked out of WCW and I believe Paul Wight has even said the WCW backstage was very different to the WWF and exhausting so I really don't blame him for his feelings around this time
we are getting so close to St Valentines Day Massacre, we just need to hold out
Paul Wight said on the Monday Night Wars dvd that WCW was a sinking ship so I can see why he wanted out of WCW.
This will ALWAYS be my favorite era of wrestling
The Disco Inferno and Saturday Wright Fever combo is too powerful
Bash at the beach is definitely one of my favorite PPV because of the setup at the entrance.
That's whats missing in modern wrestling, PPV specific themes.
That Guerrero match was sooo fast and intense, great work from them!
Its a good thing WCW and Rodman were done after this, I wouldn't even want to think what would have happened if he was still around at the time Scott really went hard on his addictions and started showing up drunk to shows.
He actually came back a year or so later, and beat Macho in a Falls Count Anywhere match. Because we all needed that.
When I was a kid my grandfather took me fishing on the lake and told me he wanted to share something really important with me, he said
"Don't turn your back on the Wolfpac.. you might end up in a body bag.".
🤣🤣🤣
Ladies and Gentlemen this man never fails to not only deliver episode after episode of fun and nostalgia but also throws in these unexpected surprises like the Pantera remix. Always look forward to Reliving the war.
I honestly get the feeling that music is his real passion. Some of the remixes are incredible.
@@CHIIIEEEEEEEEFFFFSSS I get that same feeling. Should release a remix of good entrances mixed with awesome songs
Just love the timing of Rey Mysterio getting into the WWE HOF and in the same week, he won the cruiserweight belt on Reliving the WAR.
I hate Dominik he's trying to be Eddie Guerrero way to much.
WCW had such a solid mid card. Especially in comparison to main event guys who were doing the same thing almost every week
Their mid card was the reason I was still watching at this point in time. They were just so amazing.
Finally, one of the most iconic WCW PPVs of all time
what?
@@supportpatriarchyordietrying Hogan/Rodman vs DDP/Karl Malone was huge at the time man.
One of the more underrated ppvs of the late 90s imo i loved this one it showed just how good the roaster at this point could be when the spotlight wasnt just all over the nWo

And then when somebody does a sidewalk slam...
"Side salto!"
That Pantera and Goldberg track was sick. You sir are a wizard of the highest order.
Your callbacks are legendary! There's a whole codebook that's needed for newcomers! I love it
It's like Arrested Development for wrestling dweebs like us!

That main event was like watching a car crash in slow motion
I would literally buy Wrestling Bios if it went on DVD 📀
Cost: priceless!
Buying DVDs 😂
@@bigburt04 They coming back
@@num1JaystaThey never left
The transition to Pantera is amazing. Love this channel. Keep up the great work
Chavo and Eddie were an amazing combination. Not only in WCW but the WWF as well.
I watched Nitro every week around this time. Back in 98. With my Dad, who sadly passed away during 2015. One of his favourite moments of Nitro was Chavo coming to the ring on his hobby horse 😂
@@martynodonnell Apologies for the loss of your dad. But, I do remember Pepe. God, I miss the Guerrero's comedy and sense of humor.
1998 was a good year for Wrestling
*Great
**Greastest year for wrestling. I still can't think of a better, crazier year
The second most HYPED intro behind the reliving the war weekly intro. My goodness the Goldberg and Pantera mash up with the entrances goes together like peanut butter and jelly. Mixed to perfection
I'd argue that it goes together like Alex Wright and Disco Inferno
My dude you really kill it every week with your presentation, I catch all you videos and your music mashups seem to fit everyone one of them perfectly, even the decision to use wcw/nwo revenge theme music for reliving the war is perfect, keep up the great work.

Me - Not 'til Thursday, thank you.

Absolutely wonderful.
Dude, that mash-up intro was one of, if not the best, you have ever done!!!!
This just shows how Bret was just over everything. He deserved to end his career better than his entire WCW career.
Getting so much closer to Warrior being in WCW
Best wrestling channel on RUclips.
The Accuracy
Goldberg's WCW theme+Pantera=EPIC!!!! Love your channel.
Just wanted to say love the videos man. Keep up the good work!
Man, these sets were sooooo cool. Very stylish, even for today's standard. It truly felt special
I remembered watching this ppv live. 1998 was by far my favorite year in wrestling
This one of the earliest I've ever been to one of your videos lol. Thank you for all the amazing work and content you put out, it's always a banger whenever you drop and we love and appreciate all the time and effort and everything you do to provide us with quality content!
That dance was the "Funky Guerrero" and was just awesome!
Yes another wrestling bios Sunday evening and it's my birthday
Happy Birthday!
Happy Birthday hope you enjoy it 🎂🎂🎂🎂🎂🧁🧁🧁🧁💎💎💎💎😎😎😎😎
WCW had the best pay per view sets ever.
Great upload once again! I've gotta say I really dig that PanterA/Goldberg mashup at the beginning so much that I listened to it TWICE!
It sucks that Rodman messed up the match because Malone had a great look, tons of energy, acted excited to be there, and did the work. The match could have been so much better if Rodman had control over his impulses for just one measly night. SMH

Another event I was live at, its always good to relive the war.
Yea well I've been to every wrestling even ever so top that
@@jjayala Are you that dude in the front row with the green smiley shirt that's at every PPV? Oh shoot. Nice to meet you.
Ree! Spect! Walk! I've seen those dudes six times live and each time they were killer! Awesome intro!
Hell yeah my good man!
Four times for me. Once with Type O. Once with White Zombie. Once with Neurosis. Once at Ozzfest.
first off amazing video as always and very impressive how you use goldberg's theme with walk by pantera XD
When I am a young man in the next life, I will enjoy these videos with new eyes and appreciate you again. Thanks Wrestling Bios.
So far, the best intro!!!! Not counting the Reliving the War into
Was not expecting a Pantera remix for the intro. Nice work 🤘
That Pantera x Goldberg mix went too hard 🔥🔥🔥
Great work! By the way, great remix of Goldberg’s theme mixed with Pantera‘s “walk!“
The busiest man in the entire world of Pro Wrestling content creators! Thanks for the upload!
I still think it's funny how the play by play guys got so excited when Malone bodyslammed Hogan

How many Hogan trainwreck main events have there been in WCW so far?
Comedy, Editing, & Music. A true renaissance man
WCW had been having one hell of a summer up to this point. Two months after this show, the product will be unrecognizable.
Eddie's tornado DDT is fantastic!
Well God damn that was a banger of an intro wasn't expecting that at all
This is great to watch at the same time as the XFL games today!
Great analysis of the PPV. It was the first PPV my parents let me buy, and we (my friends and I) were extremely disappointed.

I'm sure Raven enjoyed Pantera in the 90s.
Thanks, Raven.
Awesome intro!!! Pantera with Goldbergs theme and hearing him say you’re next was awesome. Great job man. You should put your themes up on hear also!
Bash at the Beach 1997 and 1998 are my favorite sets. That and Halloween Havoc 1997 and 1998.
Dude you are the best. Absolutely LOVE this page man keep up the good work.
You calling him “Supercreep Malone” sent me over the moon. Much respect.
I don’t know if you’ve done some already but a compilation of these intro remixes would be straight up fire
5 billion stars for the intro, alone. Real recognizes real.
Love the fact you use Pantera at the beginning is beautiful touch
Major props for knowing Big Pun that’s the most impressive thing I’ve heard from you so far
Love the channel keep it up
That Saturn jump on empty table is on level with AEW today 🤣🤣
Great opening mix, thank you!
1998 WAS PEAK MONDAY NIGHT WARS 😭🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🔥🔥🔥
Luv this consistency 👏 🙌 💖
I remember loving the juvi and Kidman match and the Eddie and Chavo match.
