The Infamous Chamber of Horrors Match! WCW Halloween Havoc 1991 Review

Van Hammer is the anti-Kenny Omega. Kenny is so good that he's caused Meltzer to break his rating system multiple times, in the right way. Van Hammer is so bad he caused Brian to break his rating system in the wrong way. Maybe we need to nominate those Omega/Okada classics to help Brian wash that taste out?

5:07- do you know why Scott didn't give him his half of the talisman? Because Scott only had one half of a talisman. But if you add that with his teammates 1/8 of a talisman and then multiply that by the 55% chance that the match would be bad then you got x+7=y percent chance that the talisman would be blue. And a blue talisman has a 4 and 3/2 chance of turning out to not work at all.

The “dirt” on them in the cage is from the uncleaned, unpainted iron. It just smears on your hands, etc. WCW in 91... classy all the way.

[@maxdecphoenix]

i want to say to that it was probably dust from the rigging, to get the chair to descend. They likely assembled the ring first, converted the arena seating, then put the chair in place, assembled the cage around it and then hoisted the chair up. Then probably just never cleaned the ring. (this is the same company that famously couldn't find mop buckets in a major fucking arena a few years later afterall). All that walking in the rafters to set the rigging probably knocked down a decades worth of dust, flaking paint, and oxydized iron down onto the mat.

WCW had the gall to include the Chamber of Horrors match on their Best of Halloween Havoc VHS tape from 1998, and because every match was edited to fit an hour-long tape, they cut out the post-match angle where Abdullah the Butcher comes back to life and attacks everyone. Abdullah "dies" on the tape, and then straight away to the next segment! Great work

Man....Sting really went through everything in WCW loo

[@tomtupafan4732]

December 1991, I was 9 years, my family went to eat at a buffet restaurant and we ran into this dude that my dad worked with at the time, called Rodeo. I cant remember the reason, but in his car he had a VHS tape that had Halloween Havoc, Survivor Series and Tuesday in Texas on it. Since he knew I was a wrestling fan, he gave me the tape. (And I think also one that had SummerSlam and something else on it. Maybe Mania 8.) So I watched this show a billion times in my lifetime, roughly. So thank you for this, and Im only 30 seconds into your video. Hitting subscribe now.

I'm Bluh and im better than ever never gets the credit it deserves as one of the funniest lines of this or any generation and im tired of it.

I'm glad you mentioned the set, a completely underrated set. Especially because it came in the early 90's where entrance sets weren't treated as a huge deal.

[@allamericananti-christ666]

He mentioned how horrible & chintzy it looked. Wow. Just wow. You heard him mention 'the set' & you appear to recognize those two words but I guess that's it? Jeez...

Van Hammer is so good that he legitimately makes it look like he’s going to kill the other guy with a botch.

"flying fat f**k" is that the official name of the finisher for PN News?

After seeing the Legends of The Hidden Temple reference, I can't decide which of the following I want to see more: 1. Scott Steiner as a contestant on Legends of The Hidden Temple. 2. Scott Steiner hosting Legends of the Hidden Temple. 3. Scott Steiner replacing Olmec on Legends of the Hidden Temple.

"Flying Fat Fuck to win" made me cry laugh 😂💚

[@DaveHorgan.]

This is one of the best reviews ever. And the fooking Van Hammer match! I am very surprised Doug Sommers didn't get hurt in that. Excellent review, had me laughing and relating to your feelings on it Brian lol.

[@justinb911]

“The flying fat fuck for the win” got a legit pop from me.

[@thesfdoctor3603]

I MISSED THIS VIDEO SO MUCH! This is one of my favourites PPV reviews I'm still shocked after all these years about Van Hammer's match, considering they kept him in Raven's Flock and Misfits in Action

[@gluesniffer2]

can't wait for Brian to say MINUS 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
