Don't know how, I mean what's more exciting then watching the Hulkster hobble around the ring like a cripple before dropping the big leg and getting the 1..2..3, take about thrilling lol.
It was a cute little shtick back in the 80's, when I was 7 years old I would cheer the Hulkster like crazy and buy the merchandise and take my vitamins and such. However by the time Hulk entered the WCW he kept doing the exact same shit and everybody was pretty tired of it, the nWo heel turn was refreshing and bought him a little time but the fact of the matter is that he was never really a very good wrestler at all, and worse yet he never attempted to get better either. He began and ended his career alll the way down to TNA with pretty much the same moveset save for a couple of heel moves added in when the nWo came out.
I hear ya there, I was so invested in the Hulkster as a kid that I used to get super nervous before and during all his matches lol, ahh to be a kid again. The worst part about the end of his career is that wrestling had advanced into a high flying hard core spectacular event were people were flipping and diving everywhere and having ladder matches and the like it just made the Hulks slow ass look that much worse, I mean the guy could barely run from rope to rope near the end lol but hey he could still draw the fans and people seem to love the Hulkster so all the power to him I guess.
racewiththefalcons1 I thought the same thing....Kevin Nash and Scott Hall hated their gimmicks in their 1st runs in WCW but left for the huge money, Vince Russo led WCW that his ideas is what put WWE back in the Monday wars. some where between the klique and Russo it was destined to lose steam at some point. if Ted Turner had put a cap on Bishoffs crazy spending WCW might be running today.
i see it as like an african 3rd world country - the guys at the top give themselves all the cash and perks they can and everyone else is just along for the ride picking up the slack
I always thought the Hog Wild/Road Wild PPV's were bad. For one, it was held for FREE at the Sturgis Rally (and the audience of bikers probably couldn't care less about the in ring action) and . . . it was an excuse for Hogan and Bischoff to ride their Harley's
I remember watching Superbrawl 1999! It was the first ever wrestling pay per view that I ordered and invited friends over to watch. I remember two things from it: for the most part, all of the heels won, and Torrie Wilson made her pro wrestling debut.
Lonewolf668 ..yeah the match was really frickin bad to be honest but the stupidity of Giant falling of Kobo Hall and then,after an 100ft plus drop,turned up later on in the PPV without a fuckin hair outta place?😂seeing Giant walk down the isle then just made laugh.Suspension of disbelief was gone then😂
Because the show had other redeemable qualities: -Johnny B. Badd vs. DDP for TV Title -Kurasawa vs. Hawk -Sabu vs. Mr. JL (Jerry Lynn) -Sting & Flair vs. Pillman & Anderson -Randy Savage vs. Lex Luger
I think it was one of the Bash at The Beach ppvs, Hulk Hogan having to go to the hospital simply because Jimmy Hart ran into him during his entrance, knocking him on to his knee, very gently....
Having Chris Kanyon fall all the way down to the catwalk in Kansas City, Mo. was in poor taste. That evoked unfortunate memories of Owen Hart's death. Typical WCW obliviousness.
They also did something similar with Vampiro throwing Sting off the jumbotron. During it's last couple of years, WCW was attempting to draw attention any way they possibly could. Pure desperation.
it's ironic because the hart bit was supposed to be a dig at sting's ring entrances. only wwf cheaped out on all the important shit so it failed in the most horrific way possible.
Halloween Havoc 1999: 1) flair vs ddp in a strap match, most of the match happened outside of the ring and was very boring 2) sid vs goldberg, another very boring match with a dumb finish 3) sting vs hogan, match never happened, hogan laid down while sting pinned him 4) sting vs goldberg (unannounced match), goldberg squashes sting in 3 minutes boring matches with dumb finishes and no one got over, in fact the entire company and roster all lost their credibility that night
I was at Slamboree 2000! I was really excited to see so many legendary wrestlers on one card, but the matches turned out to be pretty awful. Most of all, I was completely disgusted by the spot where Kanyon was thrown from the top of the cage being that Owen Hart fell to his death just a year prior in the same arena. This would be the last wrestling event I would attend for more than a decade.
Starcade 97 was proof and the reason WCW never beat WWF as that company didn't know how to PPVs as well as its rival which is something J.J Dillion of the Legends Of Wrestling documentary admits as WCW Nitro had better matches than their PPVs.
Uncensored 1996 sucked, but it had some okay matches in the undercard. Finlay vs. Regal was pretty cool, and the weird Sting/Booker vs. Road Warriors match was actually passable. I'd replace it with something like Slamboree of the same year, which had the godawful Battlebowl tournament, which climaxed with an awful battle royal between a bunch of mid-carders no one cared about.
@Shawn Payne I find Slamboree, Great American Bash, and Fall Brawl to be their best shows from 2000. It's not saying much, but they had decent enough matches on those shows to make it watchable.
Two more you could add to the mix are SuperBrawl 2000 and Starrcade 1999 Superbrawl 2000-The third match on the card was a Special Main event match between the Kiss Demon and the Wall. There was a leather jacket on a pole match that afterwards saw Tank Abbott stick a knife to someone's throat and threaten to cut it. Then there was a stretcher match where the finish did not go right. James Brown was there and Ernest Miller had cried wolf so many times that no-one believed him when he said Brown would be at SuperBrawl. Booker T and Big T battled in a match where the winner got to use the letter T. Starrcade 1999-This was during Russo era and was loaded with garbage from top to bottom. YOu had Madusa vs Evan Karageous for the Crusierweight Championship. Jim Duggan brought back the Varsity Club as surprise tag team partners and in typical Russo fashion the Varsity Club turned on Duggan. Sting vs Luger saw a double-swerve. Sting gave Liz some mace to use during the match. Of course LIz turned on Sting and sprayed him with the mace. However Sting saw it coming and instead of it being Mace it was silly string. The powerbomb match ended after Nash told the referee he powerbombed Sid. The main event ended with a rehash of Montreal.
Souled Out was an interesting experiment but, it's true, you need to weigh it against the larger aesthetic of pro wrestling. The presentation was pretty cool (the entryway which was a long set of steps and Bisch and DiBiase just sitting off to the side doing commentary casually on a pair of mics instead of the desk and headset style) but they should have injected some actual drama into it.
Me too! I was the biggest WCW mark ever. Also, I know I'm in the minority, but I enjoyed 1995 era & early to mid 1996 WCW, just as much as I enjoyed the NWO era WCW.
Thanks, I was about to post the same thing. This happened my junior year of high school and me and my buddies were HUGE NWO marks. There were solid matches on that card.
I'm not sure, but I think Uncensored featured a backstage brawl beside a row of concessions stands with hotdogs and soft pretzels flying everywhere. What a mess!
Lists like this make me glad to have the WWE network

Hogan/Butcher as the main event of Starrcade 94 was a real kind of stupid. Flair didn't work that night so perhaps he wasn't available. But they could have gone with Hogan/Vader or a babyface vs. babyface Hogan/Sting (reminiscent of Hogan/Warrior at WrestleMania 6). But Hogan/BFF Ed Lesl..err...The Butcher was just ridiculously bad booking.
Jake Alter it was a nitro episode the same one where tony scivone or Eric bischsoff said Mick Foley was going to win the then WWF title and the nitro viewers turned on Raw and saw Mick Foley win it
honorable mention Halloween Havoc 1998. Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior, 2 of the shittiest wrestlers of all time (in terms of ability) and the match was a total dud. Then the PPV feed stopped at the start of Goldberg vs. DDP. The best match of Goldberg's career, and paying customers couldn't see it live. WCW had to issue refunds. Complete disaster for the company.
just curious, when you talk about super brawl 1999 and you say this is why Goldberg shouldn't be in a match for more than 5 minutes? i watched the match just now, wasn't anything special (granted i am no longer an avid wrestling fan as i was before), but it totally seemed on par for a goldberg match, just a bit more development with submissions and what not. to me, it's exact same to what WWE was doing in their matches when i was watching in 2003-05. can you elaborate on that?
I TOTALLY disagree w/ you comparing that WCW event/Situation w/ the Owens Tragedy. Don't you remember Tazz vs Bam Bam in ECW? Plus, the Ramp had nothing to do w/ the Blazer Entrance.😕
Oh man that PPV when Goldberg and DDP was the damn main event and the show cut off because they was pass the time of the PPV. I forgot which PPV that was or was that a PPV?
Starcade 97 VS Souled Out... How could they think that after the massive hype and pay off of Starcade and Stings big win over Hulk, that a PPV like that would be worthy as a successor of any type?!
Eric Durant that's just it they couldn't think that would assume sense which would require wrestling and knowledge of history which clearly wcw never really had
Uncensored 1995.....how can you leave out the food fight at the concession stand between the nasty boys and harlem heat? arn anderson getting punched in the head while wearing a metal bucket? hogan winning his strap match against vader when he dragged ric flair to all 4 corners, the debut of the renegade and ric flair dressing up as a woman? by the way sting and randy savage actually had normal matches with big bubba rogers and avalanche
How was Kanyon getting thrown off the cage reminiscent of Owen's fall? It was almost exactly like Mankind's fall off the Hell in a Cell. You're just trying to make it sound way worse than it was for dramatic effect. It was a safe stunt and in no way made me think of Owen when I watched live as a kid.
Yeah Uncensored cut to the bone. Instead of getting all the action, we got long shots of the guy driving the truck, the cameracrew in the pickup truck pacing the flatbed and the helicopter flying overhead. Because who watches a Wrestling show to see wrestling action damnit!!! I guess depending on how you view the character you can thank or blame WCW for Goldust. What? No mention of the cameraman missing the pinfall during the Nasty Boys Harlem Heat match?
Yes, though I was a huge TNA mark as well, I would love to see that video! In fact, I'm appalled at the lack of TNA themed videos on both this channel & Wrestling With Wregret.
You should make a video of the worst TNA ppvs. Victory Road 2011 should be number #1 on the list for that pathetic championship match between Sting and Jeff Hardy.
I understand people liked his character, but he wasn’t spectacular in the ring. Never found his matches entertaining at all. Don’t know what people see in his in ring abilities
There was no skywalker match in Starrcade 87. It was the match beyond with Dusty Rhodes, the Road Warriors, Paul Ellering and Nikita Koloff vs. JJ Dillon and the Four Horsemen.
Yes there was the match beyond was at the great American bash 87 the skywalker match at starrcade 87 was stan lane& Bobby Eaton vs the rock& roll express
Slamboree 1999 was WCW's last attempt to being somewhat competitive with the WWF. The appeal that made WCW No. 1 for those 83 consecutive weeks was gone but they could still be a respectable 2nd best promotion if this PPV succeeded. Spoiler alert, it didn't.
I was at Slamboree 2000 and I could tell wcw was in bad shape. They were giving away free tickets to radio stations in Kansas City. The seats were in the nosebleed section and we were able to move down to better seats. My only wcw event and it sucked
I can't remember which WCW PPV is was, but the Tank Abbot vs big al match where he pulled the knife and stuck it to big al's neck saying "I could fucking kill you" That was a disaster of a ppv.
This is my top ten worst WCW PPVS 10. The Great American Bash 1991 9. Bunkhouse Stampede 8. SuperBrawl 1999 7. Sin 6. Bash At The Beach 1999 5. Uncensored 1995 4. Halloween Havoc 2000 3. Souled Out 2000 2. Bash At The Beach 2000 1. Uncensored 2000
New Blood Rising 2000 also had a terrible Canadian Rules Match between Mike Awesome and Lance Storm with Jacque Rougeau as the special guest referee. You have to watch the match just see how much of a joke it was
it wasnt sting vs avalance ir was sting vs earthquake/the shark. cant remember his name offhand but before becoming a wrestler he was an awesome sumo wrestler
Here's my list 10. Bunkhouse Stampede 9. New Blood Rising 8. Souled Out 1997 7. Halloween Havoc 1991 6. Uncensored 1995 5. Souled Out 2000 4. Starrcade 1994 3. The Great American Bash 1991 2. Halloween Havoc 1995 1. Bash At The Beach 2000 Dishonorable Mentions 1. Halloween Havoc 1999 2. The Great American Bash 2000 3. Uncensored 1996 4. Bash At The Beach 1999 5. Halloween Havoc 2000
when I watched souled out 97 I was 12 years old.... it seemed good at the time. yea looking back maybe it was poorly booked but I look at that one thru nostalgic lenses. you have a few more like that on your list but yea.
I've been re-watching WCW 2000 on the Network (up to September), and I noticed that the Nitros go through an unexpected surge in quality between Slamboree and Great American Bash. Slamboree isn't very good, yeah, and GAB has that horrendous heel turn that ruins everything. The Nitros in-between the two PPVs, however, were surprisingly great compared to the rest of WCW 2000 that I've been watching. Just a note for anybody who might want to revisit some WCW from that year but would like to see a few decent Nitros. They also have another several-week run of quality in October 2000 with the Australia tour, which temporarily made them look like a completely different, more-exciting promotion.
It makes no sense for Benoit winning the championship and then left going to WWF but I’m not sure if he would have kept the title to bring to WWF before
I went back and watched the entire 1998 on nitro and the ppvs fast forwarding from some matches but honestly watching some of it was great I got really into it sting was definitely my favourite to watch then he joined the wolf pack you could see he was enjoying his gimmick at times
Starcade 94 was not bad. Nasty boys and Harlem Heat, Sting and Earthquake/avalanche, HHH was in action against the now terrible but then ok alex wright, Jim Duggen v Vader which saw vader win and then challenge hogan at the end. It was not bad and it was fun cuz it saw Bobby heanen on commentary and randy savage made his babyface debut by shaking hulks hand. It was fantastic and you are insane.
how did The Great American Bash 2000 NOT make this list??? that was a dreadful pay per view, the main event was all kinds of run ins, Ric vs. David Flair....Hogan vs. Kidman (run ins again), Sting's stunt double getting burned....need i say more??
Lol this channel funny as a motherfucker. Something about hearing a British accident say dookie, doo doo, or any other synonyms for poop........ That's the secret sauce for the chuckles.
Two of my fav, worst PPV. Capital Punishment with Robo Cop saving Sting. And the one with Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal. (shudder) I still cringe at that one
I know right. They so obviously tried to copy Mankind from KOTR '98, Not Blue Blazer. I think because of it being in the same arenas, but still not even close.
Cris Benoit winning the belt and then bolting the next day was both hilarious and horrible. Bash at the Beach 1999 deserved a mention as well 🤦🏻♂️
Needless to say he did the smart move.
He had much better success with WWF than he did with WCW.
Didn’t they give him the title only because they didn’t want him to leave?
@@thaiboypsp3000 yes but he said he was gonna leave right after he won
Funny how most of these PPVs involve Hulk Hogan
Don't know how, I mean what's more exciting then watching the Hulkster hobble around the ring like a cripple before dropping the big leg and getting the 1..2..3, take about thrilling lol.
It was a cute little shtick back in the 80's, when I was 7 years old I would cheer the Hulkster like crazy and buy the merchandise and take my vitamins and such.

Let's talk about how many careers Hogan stifled
Bobby Lawson how much time ya got? It's a long list
WCW was so bad in the last two or three years that you have to think there's a chance the business was sabotaged.
racewiththefalcons1 I thought the same thing....Kevin Nash and Scott Hall hated their gimmicks in their 1st runs in WCW but left for the huge money, Vince Russo led WCW that his ideas is what put WWE back in the Monday wars. some where between the klique and Russo it was destined to lose steam at some point. if Ted Turner had put a cap on Bishoffs crazy spending WCW might be running today.
Michael Cowan 2 True but Turner was one of the reasons why wcw failed when he merged with time Warner and Jamie Kellner was the guy that sabotage WCW
I'd rather watch a WCW pay per view from 1999 or 2000 than today's shit even them two years were better than the last 10
see, that when you say that, you never saw how bad it was
i see it as like an african 3rd world country - the guys at the top give themselves all the cash and perks they can and everyone else is just along for the ride picking up the slack
I always thought the Hog Wild/Road Wild PPV's were bad. For one, it was held for FREE at the Sturgis Rally (and the audience of bikers probably couldn't care less about the in ring action) and . . . it was an excuse for Hogan and Bischoff to ride their Harley's
And Jay Leno pinning Bischoff in a tag team match lol.
Uh...Souled out 97 was 11 months BEFORE Starrcade 97. It followed Starrcade 96 which was Hogan vs Piper not '97 which was Hogan vs Sting
Fucks it matter?it was garbage
I remember watching Superbrawl 1999! It was the first ever wrestling pay per view that I ordered and invited friends over to watch. I remember two things from it: for the most part, all of the heels won, and Torrie Wilson made her pro wrestling debut.
The 1990's was the era of attitude, the NWO, and scrambled cable boxes.
this! lol i remember me and my buddy watching many wwf and wcw ppvs this way lol
Halloween Havoc 1995 with the Monstertruck Sumo-Match anyone?!?
I was thinking about that myself.
Lonewolf668 ..yeah the match was really frickin bad to be honest but the stupidity of Giant falling of Kobo Hall and then,after an 100ft plus drop,turned up later on in the PPV without a fuckin hair outta place?😂seeing Giant walk down the isle then just made laugh.Suspension of disbelief was gone then😂
Yea but at the time wwf wasnt really great either it was pick your poison 1995 considered the worst year in wrestling.
Because the show had other redeemable qualities:
-Johnny B. Badd vs. DDP for TV Title
-Kurasawa vs. Hawk
-Sabu vs. Mr. JL (Jerry Lynn)
-Sting & Flair vs. Pillman & Anderson
-Randy Savage vs. Lex Luger
and don't forget The Yeti (or YEHTAY like Shiavone called him) LOL.
I think it was one of the Bash at The Beach ppvs, Hulk Hogan having to go to the hospital simply because Jimmy Hart ran into him during his entrance, knocking him on to his knee, very gently....
Having Chris Kanyon fall all the way down to the catwalk in Kansas City, Mo. was in poor taste. That evoked unfortunate memories of Owen Hart's death. Typical WCW obliviousness.
They also did something similar with Vampiro throwing Sting off the jumbotron. During it's last couple of years, WCW was attempting to draw attention any way they possibly could. Pure desperation.
I remember that stunt! And none of it increased WCW's sorry ratings and buyrates. All for naught.
I thought it was more reminiscent of Foley's fall off the cage. The only thing that's the same really is that they both fell
Matches_Malone Maybe, but considering which city and arena they ran for Slamboree so soon after Owen Hart's fatal fall, it was still in bad taste.
it's ironic because the hart bit was supposed to be a dig at sting's ring entrances.
only wwf cheaped out on all the important shit so it failed in the most horrific way possible.
Rey losing his mask was a surprisingly good move and the double turn between Flair/ hogan was brilliant
Thank you OSW, I'm reminded of some of these that I grew up watching.
wrestling with wregret brian zayn makes a cameo in this
Was he under a mask, because that's who I thought it was, too?
Halloween Havoc 1999:
1) flair vs ddp in a strap match, most of the match happened outside of the ring and was very boring
2) sid vs goldberg, another very boring match with a dumb finish
3) sting vs hogan, match never happened, hogan laid down while sting pinned him
4) sting vs goldberg (unannounced match), goldberg squashes sting in 3 minutes
boring matches with dumb finishes and no one got over, in fact the entire company and roster all lost their credibility that night
Yeah, by then I had stopped watching WCW, so thank goodness I missed out on that stinker! lmao!
Halloween Havoc 1999 Looks 6 Times Better Than Today's WWE Product.
Halloween Havoc 1999 Looks Better Than Any WWE Pay Per View In 1998 & 2000 Except Judgment Day & Armageddon Or Survivor Series.
I was at Slamboree 2000! I was really excited to see so many legendary wrestlers on one card, but the matches turned out to be pretty awful.

Souled out 97 didn't follow Starrcade 97. Souled out happened in January 97, Hogan vs Sting took place at Starrcade in December 97
2:55 A fellow Wrestling With Wregret fan? You, sir, are awesome!
Uncensored 1996 sucked, but it had some okay matches in the undercard. Finlay vs. Regal was pretty cool, and the weird Sting/Booker vs. Road Warriors match was actually passable. I'd replace it with something like Slamboree of the same year, which had the godawful Battlebowl tournament, which climaxed with an awful battle royal between a bunch of mid-carders no one cared about.
Uncensored 1996 is a guilty pleasure of mine.
Wait... the Dirty Yellow Dog was actually Brian Pillman ? I learned something today !!
Has no one noticed fucking BANE at 7:14
Dakota Cosper it was the first thing I noticed you do know the guy who played banr was a wrestler for wcw right
Don't forget with the Blacktop Brawl, the match was edited and you see them going from day to night and back to daylight again
you honestly coulda put 10 ppvs form 2000 lol
All Except SuperBrawl & Uncensored.
@Shawn Payne I find Slamboree, Great American Bash, and Fall Brawl to be their best shows from 2000. It's not saying much, but they had decent enough matches on those shows to make it watchable.
@@shaneburke9034 Their are
@@allencollins1617 Uncensored sucked!
The royal rumble wasn’t bad
@6:05 haha! Dusty Rhodes is so weird but hilarious at the same time. Carrying a damn giant boot? The boots massive lol. Where’d he even get that?
Whoever won the Bunkhouse Stampede won that giant boot, lol!
2:55 Big Hoss McGraw!!! Brian Zane's influence grows.
Still better then most wwe ppv today
Agreed
Two more you could add to the mix are SuperBrawl 2000 and Starrcade 1999
Superbrawl 2000-The third match on the card was a Special Main event match between the Kiss Demon and the Wall. There was a leather jacket on a pole match that afterwards saw Tank Abbott stick a knife to someone's throat and threaten to cut it. Then there was a stretcher match where the finish did not go right. James Brown was there and Ernest Miller had cried wolf so many times that no-one believed him when he said Brown would be at SuperBrawl. Booker T and Big T battled in a match where the winner got to use the letter T.
Starrcade 1999-This was during Russo era and was loaded with garbage from top to bottom. YOu had Madusa vs Evan Karageous for the Crusierweight Championship. Jim Duggan brought back the Varsity Club as surprise tag team partners and in typical Russo fashion the Varsity Club turned on Duggan. Sting vs Luger saw a double-swerve.

WCW Super Brawl 2000 & Starr case 1999 Seems 4.9 Times Better Than Today's WWE. Plus, The Star P.ower
1:15 this worst line ever
I still miss WCW
Me too
Me 3
Souled Out was an interesting experiment but, it's true, you need to weigh it against the larger aesthetic of pro wrestling. The presentation was pretty cool (the entryway which was a long set of steps and Bisch and DiBiase just sitting off to the side doing commentary casually on a pair of mics instead of the desk and headset style) but they should have injected some actual drama into it.
WrestleLamia: the channel that can simply be defined as an autotronic reflex to click on the new videos with disregard to anything else.
what about the ppv that featured robocop? lol
I was looking for that. Damn.
Worst not best
Aside from that, Capitol Combat wasn't bad
yet another great list and some matches and events I had forgotten/wanted to forget, but was reminded.
7:23 made it seem like Russo booked Superbrawl 1999. I believe Nash was booker in February 1999...Russo came over in October
I still miss WCW :(
Me too! I was the biggest WCW mark ever. Also, I know I'm in the minority, but I enjoyed 1995 era & early to mid 1996 WCW, just as much as I enjoyed the NWO era WCW.
Me 3
I have a soft spot for Souled Out 97 💜
I was once an NWO mark. 4 Life
I agree. I loved that PPV, because I was and still am nWo 4 Life
TBH '97 Sold Out shouldn't be on this list.
Thanks, I was about to post the same thing. This happened my junior year of high school and me and my buddies were HUGE NWO marks. There were solid matches on that card.
I was (and still kinda am) an NWO fan and Soul Out '97 was trash.
I was a mark for NWO at that time but I still hated the PPV, at age 7 I knew it sucked
I'm not sure, but I think Uncensored featured a backstage brawl beside a row of concessions stands with hotdogs and soft pretzels flying everywhere. What a mess!
oh my god I choked on my soda when you said it never gets old watching someone beat up duggan
love these so much ima huge fan

They forgot the fingerpoke of doom
Jake Alter it was a nitro episode the same one where tony scivone or Eric bischsoff said Mick Foley was going to win the then WWF title and the nitro viewers turned on Raw and saw Mick Foley win it
Jake Alter or as Mick Foley was then Mankind
Sam Pugh true
how did you not mention the miss nwo contest from sold out
Those chicks were hot
c parry there were some hotties except the one the won xD
Vacant NWA World Title....I wouldnt say that...Their rebooted and now official vacant WCW World title
Oh my God I forgot about the alliance to destroy hogan and macho man included zeus and babe from Batman and Robin OMG
honorable mention Halloween Havoc 1998. Hogan vs. Ultimate Warrior, 2 of the shittiest wrestlers of all time (in terms of ability) and the match was a total dud. Then the PPV feed stopped at the start of Goldberg vs. DDP. The best match of Goldberg's career, and paying customers couldn't see it live. WCW had to issue refunds. Complete disaster for the company.
It cost them $1.6 million as a result.
These Pay Per Views You All Call Awful Are 3x Better Than Today's WWE Brand
Yeah, I remember that, that was a disaster of titanic proportions!
Halloween Havoc 1998 Is Not Only 6 Times Better Than Today's Current WWE Product, But WWE In The Last 5 Years.
just curious, when you talk about super brawl 1999 and you say this is why Goldberg shouldn't be in a match for more than 5 minutes? i watched the match just now, wasn't anything special (granted i am no longer an avid wrestling fan as i was before), but it totally seemed on par for a goldberg match, just a bit more development with submissions and what not. to me, it's exact same to what WWE was doing in their matches when i was watching in 2003-05. can you elaborate on that?

Ahh New Blood Rising... Veni Vidi Vici which is Latin for Judy Bagwell on a forklift match
Well at least wcw writers tried different things however most of those different things turned out to bombs.
Oh man that PPV when Goldberg and DDP was the damn main event and the show cut off because they was pass the time of the PPV. I forgot which PPV that was or was that a PPV?
Halloween Havoc 1998.

Starcade 97 VS Souled Out...
How could they think that after the massive hype and pay off of Starcade and Stings big win over Hulk, that a PPV like that would be worthy as a successor of any type?!
@Eric Durant it didn't follow Hogan vs Sting since that was at Starrcade 97 in Dec of 97 and Souled Out took place in Jan 97 lol
Eric Durant that's just it they couldn't think that would assume sense which would require wrestling and knowledge of history which clearly wcw never really had
Uncensored 1995.....how can you leave out the food fight at the concession stand between the nasty boys and harlem heat? arn anderson getting punched in the head while wearing a metal bucket? hogan winning his strap match against vader when he dragged ric flair to all 4 corners, the debut of the renegade and ric flair dressing up as a woman? by the way sting and randy savage actually had normal matches with big bubba rogers and avalanche
Still sounds way more entertaining than any WWE pay per view from nowadays, or any current episodes of RAW, lmao!
How was Kanyon getting thrown off the cage reminiscent of Owen's fall? It was almost exactly like Mankind's fall off the Hell in a Cell. You're just trying to make it sound way worse than it was for dramatic effect. It was a safe stunt and in no way made me think of Owen when I watched live as a kid.
Yeah Uncensored cut to the bone. Instead of getting all the action, we got long shots of the guy driving the truck, the cameracrew in the pickup truck pacing the flatbed and the helicopter flying overhead. Because who watches a Wrestling show to see wrestling action damnit!!! I guess depending on how you view the character you can thank or blame WCW for Goldust. What? No mention of the cameraman missing the pinfall during the Nasty Boys Harlem Heat match?
When are they going to do Worst TNA Pay Per Views?
Nick Soapdish no need all of them were shit
Fair enough. The ten worst by far. I'd still love to see them do it.
Yes, though I was a huge TNA mark as well, I would love to see that video! In fact, I'm appalled at the lack of TNA themed videos on both this channel & Wrestling With Wregret.
2011 bound for glory sting vs Jeff hardy has to be #1
Wcw was once so good...
An "uncensored" ppv with censored blood? that's a bad sign if I've ever seen one.
I know what I'm doing tonight
Commander Haspburg watching the YETAY!!!!!!!!
+V B OSW
You should make a video of the worst TNA ppvs. Victory Road 2011 should be number #1 on the list for that pathetic championship match between Sting and Jeff Hardy.
Yes, please do worst TNA pay per views!
Which ppv was flair vs funk in a no falls match but kept pinning each other. It was confusing and towards the end of wcw
PLEASE get the facts straight!!! Ray JR. Lost his mask as SuperBrawl 1999.
Ray and Konnan vs The Outsiders?It was Ray and Konnan vs Nash and Luger!
As terrible as WCW was its last three years it made you wonder if they purposely ruined the company.
I dont get why hulk was liked as a wrestler.He had no moves little wrestling skill the finishers were terrible.
I understand people liked his character, but he wasn’t spectacular in the ring. Never found his matches entertaining at all. Don’t know what people see in his in ring abilities
The next video should be the 10 best JCP/WCW PPV's. Two of those would be Starrcade 86 and 87.
Crystal Evans the only good thing about starrcade 86 & 87 was the skywalker matches
There was no skywalker match in Starrcade 87. It was the match beyond with Dusty Rhodes, the Road Warriors, Paul Ellering and Nikita Koloff vs. JJ Dillon and the Four Horsemen.
Yes there was the match beyond was at the great American bash 87 the skywalker match at starrcade 87 was stan lane& Bobby Eaton vs the rock& roll express
It has been a long time since I saw Starrcade 87. I forgot that there was a skywalker match as well.
Wow didn't include Great American Bash 2000 on this list which had to be the worst PPV WCW ran in 2000.
I saw new blood rising live and loved it. The crowd seemed to enjoy it. I guess it didn't look good on t.v.
Uncensored has some great matches over the years, but yes the first one was really bad!
Slamboree 1999 was WCW's last attempt to being somewhat competitive with the WWF. The appeal that made WCW No. 1 for those 83 consecutive weeks was gone but they could still be a respectable 2nd best promotion if this PPV succeeded. Spoiler alert, it didn't.
I love the Bunkhouse Stampede
I was at Slamboree 2000 and I could tell wcw was in bad shape. They were giving away free tickets to radio stations in Kansas City. The seats were in the nosebleed section and we were able to move down to better seats. My only wcw event and it sucked
I can't remember which WCW PPV is was, but the Tank Abbot vs big al match where he pulled the knife and stuck it to big al's neck saying "I could fucking kill you" That was a disaster of a ppv.
This is my top ten worst WCW PPVS
10. The Great American Bash 1991
9. Bunkhouse Stampede
8. SuperBrawl 1999
7. Sin
6. Bash At The Beach 1999

3. Souled Out 2000
2. Bash At The Beach 2000

The Butcher AKA Brutus the Barber Beefcake AKA Crap.
New Blood Rising 2000 also had a terrible Canadian Rules Match between Mike Awesome and Lance Storm with Jacque Rougeau as the special guest referee. You have to watch the match just see how much of a joke it was
Don't forget Superbrawl 2000 AKA "I could fucking kill you right now!" Brawl
Tank Abbott was fucking awful
didn't they have a really controversial Halloween havoc?
it wasnt sting vs avalance ir was sting vs earthquake/the shark. cant remember his name offhand but before becoming a wrestler he was an awesome sumo wrestler
Here's my list
10. Bunkhouse Stampede

Invest in a 1080p camera or something it’s 2019 already everyone should have a standard 1080p quality camera...
when I watched souled out 97 I was 12 years old.... it seemed good at the time. yea looking back maybe it was poorly booked but I look at that one thru nostalgic lenses. you have a few more like that on your list but yea.
I've been re-watching WCW 2000 on the Network (up to September), and I noticed that the Nitros go through an unexpected surge in quality between Slamboree and Great American Bash. Slamboree isn't very good, yeah, and GAB has that horrendous heel turn that ruins everything. The Nitros in-between the two PPVs, however, were surprisingly great compared to the rest of WCW 2000 that I've been watching. Just a note for anybody who might want to revisit some WCW from that year but would like to see a few decent Nitros. They also have another several-week run of quality in October 2000 with the Australia tour, which temporarily made them look like a completely different, more-exciting promotion.
i remember that australia tour..made wcw look like wwf that time
I heard Halloween Havoc 2000 was the worst Wcw ppv.
Souled Out 97 is the greatest PPV of all time
c parry You're a dumbass.
NOT!
It makes no sense for Benoit winning the championship and then left going to WWF but I’m not sure if he would have kept the title to bring to WWF before
I went back and watched the entire 1998 on nitro and the ppvs fast forwarding from some matches but honestly watching some of it was great I got really into it sting was definitely my favourite to watch then he joined the wolf pack you could see he was enjoying his gimmick at times
It's sad there's no hell for Chris Hansen to go to.
Starcade 94 was not bad. Nasty boys and Harlem Heat, Sting and Earthquake/avalanche, HHH was in action against the now terrible but then ok alex wright, Jim Duggen v Vader which saw vader win and then challenge hogan at the end. It was not bad and it was fun cuz it saw Bobby heanen on commentary and randy savage made his babyface debut by shaking hulks hand. It was fantastic and you are insane.
Yeah, that PPV card sounds pretty decent. It was largely just the Hogan/Leslie main event that sucked & ruined the whole thing.
I laugh so hard when I saw the Brian Zane pic
The entire video I'm just thinking "fook me that's a stacked roster" lol
Candido was ok in the match tbh. Sting vs vampiro was great.
how did The Great American Bash 2000 NOT make this list??? that was a dreadful pay per view, the main event was all kinds of run ins, Ric vs. David Flair....Hogan vs. Kidman (run ins again), Sting's stunt double getting burned....need i say more??
Its kind of pissed me off when benoit won the title just to leave.
Uncensored 1996 is a guilty pleasure of mine.
Lol this channel funny as a motherfucker.
Something about hearing a British accident say dookie, doo doo, or any other synonyms for poop........ That's the secret sauce for the chuckles.
Two of my fav, worst PPV. Capital Punishment with Robo Cop saving Sting. And the one with Spin the Wheel, Make the
Deal. (shudder) I still cringe at that one
lol that was not within a country mile of being "eerily reminiscent" of Owen Hart's fall....
I know right. They so obviously tried to copy Mankind from KOTR '98, Not Blue Blazer. I think because of it being in the same arenas, but still not even close.
Personally, I would have done the Battle Royale Cage match as Last Man Standing.
