The thing about Bobby Heenan I always liked was that even once Hogan turned heel, Bobby STILL didn't like him and STILL ran Hogan down whenever he could. I loved that consistency.

Dean Malenko and Rey Mysterio Jr. never had a bad match. Some were better than others, but even the one they had on Nitro the night after Bash at the Beach 1996 is a classic. And yeah, this match is on Rey's DVD boxed set, and it's a 5-star match, easy. ❤

do you mean both dean AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND rey never had a bad match, or did you mean dean vs rey was never bad? Oddly when i think about WCW, Malenko always still comes up for me. unfortunatly he was saddled with the charisma of a dry mop, but for in ring work, one of the best. Some of my earliest wrestling memories was Dean on WCW saturday night.

True Dat. It's like life and death. Would you like to know for a year or two, things are thermal? Or wake up one day and find your loved one 'gone'? Morbid, I know but it's soon Halloween, and Autumn . I was also thinking about how it's been a tough time, as the Oakland Athletics, or A's lost their team and that it's also been 20 years since Montreal lost it's Baseball team. It happened with WCW and it happened to the Montreal Expos (MLB -Baseball) for the younger, or non- sport fan. We knew that WCW was in trouble but Easy E. said he was working on buying. My memories are a but fuzzy. But I remember Chris Jericho, saying, at that low price, he would have bought the company! I'll spare you guys the Baseball specifics, besides saying. We knew it was coming for years and just kept going, hoping a local investor would buy the team but it never happened and we just had a final year, knowing it was the LAST ONE. I guess it sucks either way and our last season was 2004, where WCW, was gone, in March of 2001, a week before WRESTLEMANIA! I remember the Nght of the last Nitro and almost choking on my lit joint, just as I sat down to watch Raw and Tape Nitro for after. What a sight, with Vince doing the intro and poor people like me, who had no computer or any Friendos watching Wrestling. Like any great loss, comes memories, feelings and emotions. I guess we go through the stages of grief and then keep whatever we lost, Alive through memories, some Good, some bad and some, with Regret! Take care, my WCW friends and fanatics. May all your matches, be of the 5 ☆☆☆☆☆ variety :)

Rey Mysterio is an all time great. Rey's 49 years old, also had multiple knee surgeries, at least that's the story when Rey would take time off. and Rey still moves like he did in 1996. The problem with the NWO is they added too many bodies. So much that they split the NWO into two factions. I didn't like that wcw had Sting Macho Man and Bret Hart joining the group. More so Sting and Macho Man, bc they spent so much time fighting them, to switch sides. WCW tried to turn Sting heel, by joining the Wolfpack, but fans weren't booing Sting, no matter what heel tactics he did.
@TheRealAhoy
@TheRealAhoy 2 ай бұрын
It wasn't that they had too many members, which is what people often say. They were supposed to keep adding members, they were supposed to take over the whole company and the nwo angle became so strong because viewers at home were convinced IT WILL happen. The problem was that they did nothing except go on about how cool they were for the rest of their existence.

One of the things I hated about this period is that Savage went on a two month losing streak as his contract was about to expire. Even when he had the match in the palm of his hand, he would get disqualified or counted out for no good reason. Then, when he decided to stay with WCW, they brought him back as a member of the nWo, becoming the henchman of the same guys who had beaten him up for months on end. It just made him seem like a real tool.

I had completely forgotten about Hogan's toupee era until recently when clips started showing up on facebook. I'm really glad you did this one, but part of me wishes Hogan's toupee could have remained forgotten.

Kurt Angle's Wig and Headgear from 2002 was better, looking forward to when Brian covers King Of The Ring 2002 for the pre-match promo for Kurt Angle vs. Hollywood Hulk Hogan: "The Battle Of The Real American Heroes".

The best coda to that song is the knowledge that WWE just _assumed_ they had the rights to it, but it was all based on handshake type arrangement between Kracker and Justin Credible. When it came time to rebroadcast _some_ of the shows for On Demand, they redubbed the entrances with their earlier production music to err on the side of caution. Then it all ended up being okay, but they didn't want redub a redub and I guess they lost the originals. Now, some episodes feature the generic production music and some feature Uncle Kracker. Because, hey, it's the f***in X-Factor innit?

4:20: As a race fan, I do like that you briefly brought up WCW’s involvement in racing (Side note: That NWO car Kyle Petty drove, it ran in a Busch Series race at Charlotte sometime prior to Halloween Havoc while Jason Keller drove the Slim Jim HH car in that same race. Keller would finish in the Top 10, but Kyle wouldn’t be so lucky and DNF after wrecking out)

Sometimes I wonder what Ric Flair looked to accomplish in his WCW antics. Does he want to salvage heat for a lame match, or bury it with unintelligible mic'ed jibberish since he knows he's needed rather than wanted around? I don't know what the man said, might have been something about Jeff's mom idunno.

14:19 It’s hard to say if Double J was ever truly a Horseman. Ultimately the whole thing was more of an angle/storyline than anything else, Flair eventually welcomed him into the group in early 1997 but Jarrett spent his 3-4 months in the group locked in a rivalry with Mongo over Debra’s affections. He also never got Arn’s approval, and when Jarrett got kicked out Arn declared “he was never a Horseman” because he was only out for himself the whole time.

Dusty: “I throwed ya off I know when I said boola boola” Tony: “idk where boola boola is” Dusty: chuckles “boola boola ain’t no place, it’s like something that just happened. Buddy Holly told his girlfriend that one time. She said I’m going to school, you ain’t going with me and he said WELL BOOLA BOOLA. That’s where I got that from” After hearing boola boola on a previous WWW classic ppv review I felt so vindicated hearing the backstory lol 1:31:25 in the Halloween havoc 96 PPV.

25:48 I was 15 & deeply entrenched into WCW & the NWO leading up to this show, & i remember that Schiavone & Heenan would talk about how 2-faced Hogan was being by doing the movies for kids but being such a P.O.S. leading the NWO, so WCW was acknowledging the absurdity of Hogan being the leader of the NWO & making kids movies.

The Renegade also used that music which was used for the Halloween Havoc and Marvelous Marc Mero theme. It was towards the end of his TV run, late-97 and early 98.
