"YOU'VE UNLOCKED BRI--" *Johnny hits the big sad*

[@JeffKGaming]

I was wondering why Johnny stopped suddenly on Adams...I thought he was in that "CB" territory but I didn't know the reason.

[@TheMD1inthegame]

​@@JeffKGamingNope, it simple, johnny just has a hatred for Brian Adams

[@jbc00per]

Probably the only time I'll pop for Big Vito is when Johnny puts him over for the music hahah

[@shanedawndusk3290]

I lowkey enjoy these Johnny solo streams

[@MikeDBloke]

To its credit, this is one of the very few games that let you hit someone with a toilet

[@zemasionxoxo]

but johnny fears toilets ☹️

[@MikeDBloke]

@@iamdb1990 Quite a few where you can shoot people using a toilet, but next to none where you can hit them with it

[@AntonBalfe]

@@MikeDBloke it's funny that you can hit them with the toilet considering WCW was circling the drain at the time

[@CGaz1812]

I just watched a guy play Backstage Assault for 5 hours… awesome.

[@Kryptonightians]

if you did the big wiggle taunt with a CAW or someone then you unlock norman smiley and if you do that one dance taunt you unlock miss handcock.

[@CMpunkRulz2007]

LOL Hancock you mean... I mean it stil sounds bad either way haha

I forgot that this game had good commentary. Makes Just Bring It seem even more unforgivable in hindsight. Then again, that just might be Tony Schiavone being way better at voiceover than Taz and Cole

[@MrSkerpentine]

*O H B A B Y*

[@joshiesworld77]

So yes Lucha Underground is available on Tubi. You reminded me that I haven't finished it so I decided to look it up and picked up where I left off and that episode happened to be the confrontation between Vampiro and Penta. 😹

[@shedevilofsinz]

Johnny: you’ve unlocked Brian Ad-.. you’ve unlocked Brian Clark

[@ryblinkhopkinson874]

Not watched this yet but honestly seeing these recent uploads gets me emotional and makes me so happy. I just want to remind you beautiful boys the positive impact you have on our lives! I know I'm not the only one here who finds your uploads such a support in the darkest of times. I'm not even sure how long I've been following you for now. Maybe 8 years?! Regardless thanks again for all the laughs you give us! I love you all 😃 ❤️

[@spencer2745]

I love the uploads lately as well. I've been struggling really bad for the last month so these have helped me

[@thatdamnbradley]

Jawwny started naming him Ronnie, and I thought, "Holy shit, he's gonna name the CAW something normal."

[@Aidan_ODonnell]

Still waiting for Jawnny to do a career mode in a game as a CAW of himself, The Journey of John Blud

[@TheKreamKorn]

I used to play this as a tiny child. It wasn't the best but I always had fun with it! Bringing back lots of nostalgia

[@syedmasroorhussain]

Actually one of my all time favorite N64 wrestling games

[@syedmasroorhussain]

And yes Jawnny the commentary is what makes the game honestly.

[@saiden6421]

Cpl. Cajun looks like The Riddler from Batman Forever

[@jamesd4223]

I thought he looked like a generic CAW from one of the Acclaim WWF games with his painted on clothes and hair.

[@seananthony9664]

Solo Johnny streams have a very unique energy, and I love them

[@ThexEmulator]

1:23:11 The Harris Brothers theme is so generic, *that its literally a background theme from Here Comes The Pain*...😂

[@memohd-wwf]

This is a good beat up game for sure or to relieve stress.

[@rizokahn]

The Men On a Mission theme song needs to play during the highlights video.

[@Psycho5275]

My favorite bad game of all time. I've done 100% unlocks multiple times. There's just Just something about this game. Also for those who haven't played. Lance Storm is the most OP character I think this was made right as he was doing his belt collecting mini push

[@DanteTheBroly]

I feel like 2k20 hurt people so bad that it made us all cherish and appreciate the terrible games of the past. lol

[@NorthStarBlue1]

Backstage Assault is trash, but at least it's playable and finished. That's a step up from... well, most every game released in the last few years, really.

[@EliteEasyE]

@@NorthStarBlue1 I would not call it finished... at all.

that part of an old charity stream where you played this as vince russo with vince himself in the call is an all timer. that's probably the only good thing about this game.

Those tire physics show they basically had rope running as a mechanic, they just didn't make a ring. Why isn't there at least an area with a ring?!

[@danielrierson6683]

At least make entrances and have pyro come out of the barrels or something lol

The Backlash game wasn’t just fab rumor. It had a feature in a Nintendo Power magazine.

[@newLEGACYinc]

can you link us that?

[@mclovinmaniacwaldo]

I googled wcw backlash like Johnny said, and the only thing that came up was wwf backlash. I always thought that was the sequel to no mercy that never happened.

Favorite wrestling game all time No Mercy

[@BulletproofSVBW]

Vampiro theme music is a big vibe

[@karltonkinley5888]

Did a quick look over the roster, to my eye here are the wrestlers that appeared in this game and no others: Asya David Flair Awol/The Wall/Malice (only in King of Colosseum II as Gigantes, never a game released in the states) Brian Clark Chris Candido Crowbar Daffney Don Harris Ron Harris Evan Karagias Hugh Morris/Bill DeMott (NPC in WWE 2ksomething) Johnny Stamboli Kimberly Page (was a valet in Revenge, not playable) Miss Elizabeth (was a valet in Revenge, not playable) Shane Douglas Tank Abbott Vince Russo Medusa was never on disc, she eventually became DLC as Alundra Blayze Let me know if I missed anyone or if someone appeared in another game. Some pretty big names on here (Shane Douglas! Candido!) that never made another game, hope they made some royalties.

[@1992geop]

Shannon Moore is on WWE Raw 2 Xbox and Major Gunns/Tylene Buck is on backyard wrestling 1 & 2 video game

I used to love electrocuting my opponent with the computers 💻 and fighting in the bathroom~ I was surprised people hated this game, I loved it as a kid

[@dalesanteford7432]

I agree with Johnny ECW went out with their video game it would have been very good with araki game same way with backstage assault last game WCW enjoy Mayhem I play that game a lot on my old PlayStation before I got my Dreamcast

[@RENCE27]

Is Big Maria Vito in this game?

[@jamesd4223]

This whole game gives me PTSD flashbacks to Carlito vs. Punk from the Kingiest tournament.

FILTHY ANIMALS THEME TOO 🔥

Small Soldiers!? I haven't thought about that movie in soooo long. What an anomaly that film was.

[@EclecticCharisma]

If this game was polished, it probably wouldn’t be much different from Def Jam: FFNY outside of the hip hop stuff, but regardless would be pretty sick, right?

[@mike4lmcfly90]

Holy crap I did not know def jam was supposed to be a wcw game Damn that would’ve ruled

[@DAStephens]

The fact the CAW wasn’t named “No Face Killa” is a huge let down.

[@shanedawndusk3290]

Agreed...

[@dougbarrett619part2]

Still better then 2k20. At least this game is bad in a good way. Yes I own it too. Sid is hardcore champ. Awesome us champ and Strom as world champ

[@bahgawddalton7700]

If I’m not mistaken Crowbar is going to be in the upcoming Virtual Basement game as well

[@Kryptonightians]

i think i remember that there was a code in this game that you can use to make it do funny sounds like a baby crying and some laughs and such that was very funny to do.

[@Luke.S2099]

I played this quite a bit when it came out back in the day. I have a copy, because it came with a bunch of wrestling games I got on ebay a few years ago. It's so bad playing it now, like it's almost unplayable, lol.

[@Mateus_Carvalho]

I think the last WCW game (although not with the license) was a Fire Pro title, to be fair. Then again, I guess that wouldn't count.

[@TheTexasCowboy56]

Somehow the only time Tony ever cared in WCW was for this game. xD

The name Carl Carnage was RIGHT THERE

[@Kryptonightians]

i forgot to mention that you can unlock 7 others when you beat the hardcore gauntlet 7 times. 1 unlockable for each one.

[@thetruecish]

Why didn't The Undertaker ever use the Death Valley Driver? 🤔 They also missed a good opportunity to call the Tombstone Piledriver the Death Valley Driver (or Death Valley Piledriver).

[@mattmaverick3602]

Something people probably didn't know: If you preview taunts (at least in the N64 version, it could be in the PlayStation version as well), some of the wrestlers actually say something.

[@syedmasroorhussain]

Yeah Sting's woo, for example

[@mattmaverick3602]

The weirdest one to me is Vampiro and his evil laugh lol

[@BigFredMachine]

As a big WCW guy, it's always great to see it getting some love! But I have to say, it always pisses me off when you're praising Jeff Jarrett. I guess to me, he will always be synonymous with the downfall of my favorite company.

[@TheNewNorm2]

At least he has the guitar and great theme songs, unlike Cody Rhodes who has neither and sucks even more.

[@BigFredMachine]

@@TheNewNorm2 Tough choice, I don't like either, but of the two I'd probably still go with mister Neck Tattoo. Also, Cody's theme is pretty good.
