WCW: The Essential "Must Have" List
MillenniumMan831 replied to UseTheSledgehammerUh's topic in General Wrestling
That's a nice list. I think Steamboat vs. Austin from Clash of Champions 8/94 should be added as Steaboat FINALLY triumphed over Austin in an awesome match which would unfortunately be his last in a brilliant career. With all those CW matches you have at the end, I think the 10-Man Cruiserweight Countdown Match has to be added that took place on Thunder leading up to SuperBrawl Revenge. It was Shane Helms vs. Shannon Moore vs. Evan Kourageous vs. Jamie Knoble vs. Billy Kidman vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Yang (Akio) vs. Kaz Hayashi vs. Lash Leroux vs. Elix Skipper The rules were just like the match at WMXX except the wrestlers came from the back and not from just outside the ring. The CW Countdown ran a lot longer and was much finer than the WMXX match. It was a 20ish minute breath of fresh air and would be one of the last of its kind as WCW was bought out soon after as the Cruiserweight Division as we know it died. Quite honestly, I'm not sure why Mortis & Wrath Vs. Ernest Miller & Glacier is on it. Must be better than I originally remembered. -
I know one can hear crickets in this forum but I went ahead and edited the list to reflect tapes that are gone and tapes that are added in. The most notable addition is probably - UFC 1: The Beginning (Commercial Master w/ original box)
-
I have 2 Shawn Michaels CVs and that match is on neither. It is on Slamfest 95 (Other matches are Luger/Diesel, Kid/Yoko, and a couple others, just a 60min quickie).
-
But Kurt Angle was. Wrap your mind around that one and your head will explode.
-
Except then they'd be spitting in the faces of the fans who are still willing to buy tickets to house shows. Not that WWE wouldn't do it anyway, but it's a bad idea to begin with. Wouldn't that make house show attendance go up a bit in the hopes of actually seeing a title change? When I say spin it, I meant in reality you have Cena get bopped in the head w/ the belt but the announcers can scream Bloody Murder and how Heel X stopped at NOTHING to win the championship . . . not necessarily lying but a grose exaggeration.
-
If they really want to protect Cena, they can have him drop the belt at a house show to whomever. That way, WWE can spin it (not the belt) any way they want and the fans would have to accept it since 99% never saw the change.
-
You may be right but you may be mixing in the tournament for a #1 Contender leading to Backlash 2003 which Cena won.
-
We'll discuss here.
-
Heyman will be lucky to be on the writing committee for the show . . . he'll probably be out of a job by then.
-
^^^ He'll squash RhYno in a ECW/World Title Unification Match after a 2 week mini feud on Raw on the level of Undertaker/Tommy Dreamer '02. And the sad thing about Steph being threatened by Heyman is that it's strictly an ego/power thing. Mostly in the real world, when someone feels that their job is threatened, it's due to the potential of having to take a position w/ less money. Obviously, that's not the case w/ Steffy at all. Makes me sick.

WCW facts, tidbits, and stuff people forgot
MillenniumMan831 replied to JoeDirt's topic in General Wrestling
That's sadder than the reason I thought it was . . . they didn't feel like it. -
Totally agreed S_D. Just leave ECW alone unless Heyman gets 100% control of the content of the show even if he has to use WWE contracted guys that were in ECW at some point and maybe a few other guys like London, Akio, ect. Sometimes I think Vince does indeed 'get' what the fans really want but he is polluted by what his family thinks is best. And deep down, he would really rather please them than the fans.
-
Who the fuck is Steph to say who will be on the ECW ppv?
-
Eh, I'll always have a soft spot for WM2 since it was the only wrestling tape our video store had to rent for years. It was an interesting concept but only gave the fans a 1hr live show before having to watch the rest on a big screen . . . of course most of the fans that go to a Raw show nowadays have to endure the same thing. The Tag Title match was excellent. The Funks/JYD/Tito tag match was quality. I enjoyed the battle royal as it used the NFL players about as well as you can w/o the wrestlers looking incompetent . . . aside from the Fridge/Studd scenario, but that doesn't bother me in the slightest since it wasn't as if it made Studd look weak or anything. The boxing match was entertaining and I would say the same for the I-C Title match if not for the fact that they did the same match for almost 2 years. The cage match was about as good as it could be considering the participants.
-
I don't see the "Over the Top--Off w/ the Top Match" (aka Holiday Topless Over the Top Match).
-
I'd love to read them.
-
Sounds like a Constanza rant from a certain Shrinkage episode.
-
I'll never forget that chinlock. I honestly thought an agent told them to execute a super long rest hold to make the comeback seem more exciting or something. As for when I knew the InVasion was screwed was when The Acolytes beat O'Haire/Palumbo clean and convincingly at the InVasion ppv. It left kind of a funky feeling with me seeing it live that they couldn't put a young up and coming team over an established team who will always have heat w/ the drinking gimmick . . . even if it was a totally cheap/unclean win. Plus, when I saw interpromotional matches on Heat/Jakked, I knew the InVasion was dead.

If you were a wrestler...
MillenniumMan831 replied to Hunter's Torn Quad's topic in General Wrestling
Prefer to be given only finish and call everything else in the ring ? Lay the entire match out beforehand ? Eh, lay the story of the match out beforehand but not move-for-move. Like to have your promo's scripted ? Or just be given a couple of bullet points, and wing the rest ? Better just give me a few bulletpoints cause I'll forget my lines if I have a script. Blade often ? Only on occasion ? Would you rather never blade at all ? If I were to blade, I'd have to do one backstage for practice . . . as odd as that sounds. If I did it once and it wasn't too bad . . . I wouldn't mind doing it here and there. What style would you like to wrestle ? Why would you prefer to employ that particular style over others ? I'd work WWE style since it's the easiest style to learn. Copout answer, but it's the truth. Refuse to take certain moves ? Only take them when working with certain wrestlers ? I'd take anything and everything as long as it's been done before w/ good results. No cheese graters please. Are there any match types you'd like to wrestle in a lot ? Some match types you'd rather never have to work in ? Since I'm a HUGE battle royal mark, stick me in those along w/ Royal Rumbles and Survivor Series elimination matches. War Games sounds like a lot of fun too. What style of normal match would you like to do the most ? Would you prefer to sell or to dominate ? Would you like to do long matches ? I'd love to get my ass kicked and sell in a long match to try to get the fans to get behind me for a huge or even small comeback at the end of a match. Plus, it seems like everyone wants to be a heel, may as well be a face. Would you like to have a manager or valet to work spots with, or would you rather just do it all yourself ? I wouldn't mind either way as long as the person is good. I don't need Coach or Bill Alfonso blowing a fuckin whistle every 10 seconds during my match. Are there some types of angles that you would refuse to do ? Some types of angles that you'd love to do ? I'd do any angle as long as I didn't have to kiss a dude on the mouth. What promotion would you like to work for the most ? What promotion would you hate to work for ? I'd work for anybody. It'd be awesome to have an undercard match at MSG in the 1980s. Oh, how I daydream I could be the next Jose Luis Rivera. Any wrestlers today that you'd like to work against ? Any you would avoid working against at all costs ? I'd love to work against Ric Flair or Stevie Richards. Sounds like a ball. I don't think I need to take any Benoit chops or JBL clotheslines as long as I live though. What wrestlers from the past would you like to work against ? What wrestlers from the past would you not want to work against ? I'd love to work against Hulk Hogan (if I was a heel) or Randy Savage since I'd like to think my style would be most like his where he wasn't very conventional and while he did take many top rope leaps . . . he didn't do 450s or SSPs, but he didn't have to either. From what I've heard about him, I'd have no desire to square off against Bruiser Brody. -
Okay let's get one thing straight here. You don't FUCK with John Stockton. John Stockton is the coolest basketball player ever because 1) He had the balls to wear short shorts 2) He defied the aging process like some only wish they could 3) He went to Gonzaga 4) He gave short white kids hope in an era of the NBA dominated by tall black guys 5)He didn't fuck around with agents, and just directly negotiated with management instead. Now THAT's cool. I couldn't have said it better myself. So he's a cheap, white dork who looks perplexed all the time.

OK, so I just saw the Mega Powers break up match
MillenniumMan831 replied to a topic in General Wrestling
That was the beauty of the Mega Powers spilt. Everyone has/had an opinion of who was right and who was wrong. I'm sure a storyline like this, executed the way it was, touched a nerve on more than a few people. Just an awesome storyline considering it was blantantly obvious that Hogan was walking out of WMV w/ the WWF Title. -
Even though he retired, John Stockton seemed like a pale ass dork w/ no personality. He plays basketball, tried his damndest to look pissed, and looks like he goes home and reads the Goosebump books.
