WWF Unforgiven 1999 - The Reliving The War PPV Review

[@jefferyjones8399]

Between stealing Big Show's dad's casket and feeding Al Snow his own dog, Big Bossman was an absolute TERROR during this time.

[@gatchywatchyentertainmentb2090]

Yeah. ITS AWESOME! They outta do something like that with Bloodline.

[@AW-kr9fl]

The Bossman was hilariously evil at this time 😂😂

[@PeterHowe228]

WWF roster, believes Chazz beat up his girlfriend, jumps him, same roster sees Jeff Jarrett beat up multiple women including employees and managers, nothing.

@@BOABModels Along with a ring announcer and a "stage manager", yes. lol

[@BenjaminBilyeu-jm3tc]

Amazing right? It seems like women need to be protected on one hand but celebrated on the other. Chyna was ok as a wrestler but not great by any means. I would rather have Chyna than Sable for sure. She had a good look and got a crowd reaction, so it worked but having her compete with men that were bigger, faster and more experienced than her always seemed off. It's like having the Big Show selling too much for a smaller opponent or when Kidman had matches with Hogan. It was odd to have these 2 storylines going on at the same time. I think that Jeff got paid handsomely on his way out as well.

[@Mujangga]

@@BOABModels Every employee of WWE knows, it's a hazardous work environment just like when camera men sometimes get run over in a rugby or American football match. I'm sure race-car pit-crews have to sign some kind of waver knowing how dangerous their workplace is.

[@TheMuscleMage06]

Im so glad we finally got to Unforgiven 1999! A bit of context- I grew up in a fairly poor family and the only wwf I ever got to watch Sunday Night Heat on Channel 4. I saved up my pocket money for weeks and all I wanted was a WWF VHS tape. The main event sold me on picking Unforgiven 1999. I must have watched it about 100 times.

[@ElderDrive]

Sunak is that you????😂

[@AverageJane222]

Same here @toddspencer! One of my friends at school had sky and she used to 'tape' WWF ppv's for me 1999 - 2001. I used to do chores at home to earn enough money to buy the old silver vision VHS releases. How times have changed!

Mr Jarrett is so underrated. A lot of people hate on him due to his early TNA stuff but the man is so good at telling a story in the ring. He's the kind of guy I would love to have as a friend as he has proven to be a very loyal individual, even as WWF tried to screw him over. Top 5 wrestler in my book.

From the look of things, starting from this event on, all PPV names (except the ones for events from Britain) get reused year after year into the RA era, and some of them even beyond that. From events just called "In Your House", to "IYH: ", to ": In Your House", to simply "" and finally now to this. As someone who grew up in the (later) RA era years, this represents another step into the WWF/E I grew up with. I've already seen a couple of guys calling this or that event the start of the home stretch to X-seveN, but this one here - Unforgiven '99 - is the start of my very own "PPV name" final mile for this entire series, and into the product that I grew up with.
