WCW Invades Baywatch | Wrestling With Wregret

[@RockedNet]

Pamela Anderson AND Ric Flair in the same room?! Can you imagine the sleezy pickup lines that must have been said during that shoot? Yikes.

[@travismcdonald6576]

Rocked Had it been 10 years later, Flair would have named drop HHH every two minutes.

[@ryanboman8211]

LOL He hasn't ALWAYS been old. He was like 43 when this episode was shot. That's not exactly a senior citizen.

Nice review of another Hogan acting masterclass, but you dropped the greatest insult ever said on TV. "Those who can, do. Those who can't, don't."

It's funny Flair didn't consult with Vader whose second job was a real estate developer.

He probably planned to, but Vader only worked his second job when it wasn't Vader Time.

Subplot A: Having wrestlers work out on the beach and start a feud, leading to a literal bash at the beach. Subplot B: Give one of the main characters skin cancer, spreading the word about the dangers of sunbathing. Baywatch was weird sometimes. R.I.P. Vader. Legit tough guy.

[@xtwo-steppx5206]

Hello Brian. I'm a longtime viewer, subscriber, and personally a huge fan! I just wanted to let you know something important to me. Long story short...My life is in complete and utter shambles right now. I.E. Suspended license, recently laid off from a decent paying job, lost 2 family members, and don't speak to many people. I'm going to be 28 in October and I just feel like I am lost. You are one of the most inspirational, personable, and down right one of the most intelligent people that I look up to. Your content keeps me going when I am at my lowest. You saved my life, I just want you to know that. I won't get into detail, but if it wasn't for you Brian, I wouldn't be here. I can not begin to thank you enough for that. I owe you my life. Thank you for the great content, I look forward to the future so I can relive my childhood and learn some more. In the words of another influence of my, "Have a nice day". :)

[@WrestlingWithWregret]

Thank you so much for sharing your story! Glad to have you as a fan!

[@GATguy98]

6:54 why is this the first time I’m hearing this promo

[@zerkzy842]

6:09 Who knew a property dispute could be settled by a wrestling match..

[@JennaLeigh]

zerkzy842 much like the legal guardianship of a minor (Eddy Guerrero/Rey Mysterio), evidently wrestling rings are given the same legal protection as a courtroom, and all matches therein are legally binding. #wrestlinglogic

[@theantilifeequation8150]

zerkzy842 It happened often in the 90s, I wrestled my neighbor for a parking lot between our houses, I was beating the crap out of him and was just about to slap on a figure four leglock when his faction made the save and started beating me with nightsticks! His faction then put me in handcuffs and took me to who I presume is his manager who said that a stipulation in the contract said I had to go to prison! Then in prison I had to wrestle in a lube on a pole match (stuff on a pole matches also happened all the time in the 90s), but that's a different story!

Baywatching: Brian Zane Edition.

[@emanuelespinoza9325]

That would have been awesome if Allison Pregler and Brian Zane did a video together, along with Phelon. Of course, there was that OSW Review crossover with Allison and Phelon, which was funny, too.

[@metagross9092]

At least the WCW Galaxy sounds cooler than the TNA Galaxy am I right?

[@mrflores012]

Seriously dude how do you only have 215k subs?? Your vids are way better than other wrestling channels

[@Nomad416]

Baywatch is on Hulu, so I decided to check this episode out again because it's been years since I watched Baywatch, period. They did actually show the pinfall for the Savage/Flair match (it was right after the diving ax handle), but it was a wideshot and it was obscured by people around the ring. Hogan won his match against Vader by (according to Wikipedia at least, I haven't had the WWE Network for well over a year to check the actual event in question) escaping the cage rather than pinfall.

[@Shan0a]

So many quality videos every weeks from you Brian. Keep up the good work! I'm still sad about Vader's passing, such a legendary big man.

[@dnhs5441]

It seems like Flair's role was meant for Ted Dibiase.

[@Dynaman21]

7:35 - Technically speaking, that would potentially be viewed as being emotionally compromised, which is discouraged, but I’m not sure if there’s a straight up rule.

[@sogcitymac7940]

The rec center backstory sounds like the plot to the A-Team episode Hogan guest starred in.

I got to see Vader in WCW when I was a kid...I think it was in Anaheim? I'll have to dig that story up from the adults I argued with on the way home about wrestling being real! That night Sting was wrestling some jobber and a huge crate came to the ring as a gift for Sting. It had a red bow on it. Sting needed a crow bar to open it and when he did VADER came out!!!! Then I was treated to an awesome brawl inside and outside of the ring. I met Z-Man after the show who was my WCW favorite for some reason. Anyways great memories and Vader was one of the greatest bigs ever!!!!

[@rajamicitrenti1374]

And because Baywatch was incompetent about scheduling episodes, not only did this air in February after Vader had left, they aired it before the episode where Thom is given what is clearly his introduction to the show and to Steph.
