cawthon777 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 All but the last two are worth seeing a few times over.
razazteca Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 But Flying Brian Pillman never had the WCW Cruiserweight title he had the Lightweight title back in the early 90s before he became the "Loose Cannon".
BHK Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Shawn/Bulldog is a nice little ***1/2 match.
Guest The Shadow Behind You Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Why won't they put this stuff on the dvd releases as well? Not everyone has broadband connection.
JoeDirt Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Anyone else think it's weird they put Skipper vs. Sanders on here?
Guest The Shadow Behind You Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 I believe it is, they are going for a October theme obviously...why not Goldberg/Page from 98 Havoc? I guess they felt they needed a cruiserweight option.
JoeDirt Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 I believe it is, they are going for a October theme obviously...why not Goldberg/Page from 98 Havoc? I guess they felt they needed a cruiserweight option. Then why not Eddy vs. Rey from Havoc 1997???
The Amazing Rando Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 October 4th, 1993 - WWF Monday Night RAW Battle Royal By mid-1993, Shawn Michaels was on top of the world. He had successfully broken away from Marty Jannetty and was enjoying a successful reign as Intercontinental Champion. Then as a result of inactivity, HBK was stripped of the title. This battle royal was designed to determine the top two contenders for the vacated championship. I remember this, but who won... Razor and someone right?

deancoles Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 Rick Martel was the other guy. They should have included their match on Raw the following week. Edit: Beaten to it
slimm44 Posted October 14, 2004 Report Posted October 14, 2004 I believe it is, they are going for a October theme obviously...why not Goldberg/Page from 98 Havoc? I guess they felt they needed a cruiserweight option. Why put cruiserweight matches in when it is a RAW PPV, they feature no cruiserweights
The Amazing Rando Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 and that was the match that lead to the Ladder Match, right? The whole "two belts" thing? ...back when the IC Title had real meaning...
Guest The Shadow Behind You Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 I believe it is, they are going for a October theme obviously...why not Goldberg/Page from 98 Havoc? I guess they felt they needed a cruiserweight option. Then why not Eddy vs. Rey from Havoc 1997??? because they have used it about since obtaining the rights to the footage(it's on eddy's and Rey's dvd and was shown on From the Vault segment on Confidential)...Diversity never hurts.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 Was totally expecting them offer Hell in a Cell 1 and Eddie/Rey HH 97 at "must see exclusives!"
Guest Evolution Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 Skipper/Sanders...obscure, but I'm a Sanders mark. I don't know if my connection could handle it, though, but if I knew it could, I'd consider buying it if only to see Above Average. I gotta agree that Goldberg/DDP being omitted sucks, though. I don't think Vince/Steph was necessary.
Guest Lawlerm Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 The really should start putting some old school stuff like this on the DVD releases. Surely they can't be selling many copies of Judgement Day 2004 etc. but if they threw an old WCW match or two on them it would persuade a lot of folk to get it. But then they'd have to admit WCW was actually quite good... Ah well...
Enigma Posted October 15, 2004 Author Report Posted October 15, 2004 They should start putting all the extras they put with the webcast on the DVD release of the PPV.
CheesalaIsGood Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 They should start putting all the extras they put with the webcast on the DVD release of the PPV. Best.Idea.Ever.
BHK Posted October 15, 2004 Report Posted October 15, 2004 Was totally expecting them offer Hell in a Cell 1 and Eddie/Rey HH 97 at "must see exclusives!" Eddie/Rey was offered as a webcast extra for No Mercy. Personally, I can't wait for the Survivor Series extras. Hart/Austin SS96
Masked Man of Mystery Posted October 16, 2004 Report Posted October 16, 2004 I think its an insult to call Elix Skipper the best cruiserweight in WCW. He's probably pretty darn good(haven't seen much of him myself) but that division was loaded at one point.
natey2k4 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Posted October 16, 2004 they said Skipper was the best at that time.. WCW didnt really have too much then, and even the ones that were better.. "the best" probably was stated cuz he was champion...?
Mole Posted October 16, 2004 Report Posted October 16, 2004 October 20th, 2002- WWE No Mercy 2002 Triple H vs. Kane In a truly historic match, World Heavyweight Champion Triple H battled Intercontinental Champion Kane at No Mercy 2002 to unify the two championships. In the end, there was only one true champion. Watch to find out which man walked out with all the gold. Was it historic because of how bad it was? Or that they got rid of a good title? Or that Triple-H held down another wrestler?
Guest The Shadow Behind You Posted October 16, 2004 Report Posted October 16, 2004 it was historic in their mind because it unified two titles... And then it was un-unified.
Elbarto997 Posted October 16, 2004 Report Posted October 16, 2004 Didn't they try this to get people to order the Great American Bash?
Enigma Posted October 16, 2004 Author Report Posted October 16, 2004 Didn't they try this to get people to order the Great American Bash? They've been putting extras with the webcast since Bad Blood.
snuffbox Posted October 17, 2004 Report Posted October 17, 2004 Those extras will probably be more entertaining than the ppv itself...
