Uncensored 96 was generally speaking a very bad ppv. It has the Finlay-Regal match where they just beat the poo poo out of each other, but other than that its all poo poo. Pretty much the only thing of note it did was set up the angle of DDP leaving WCW and living in the street until he returned at Slamboree.

Endorph posted:You could say that about most every WCW PPV after a certain point. Sure, but the difference is that Uncensored sucked every single time. There's no year where I'd say "hey, might as well check Uncensored out for the experience." It's terrible from its first year to its last, and the best you can hope for is that there's a match that's worth watching separately.

On paper Uncensored 1997 sounds like a decent lineup. It included: Dean Malenko v Eddie Guerrero for the U.S. Title (20 minute match) Ultimo Dragon v Psycosis Glacier v Mortis Harlem Heat v Public Enemy Team nWo (Nash, Hall, Savage, Hogan) v Team WCW (Luger, Steiner, The Giant) v Team Piper (Piper, Benoit, Jarrett, McMichael) in a triangle elimination match 1998 looked alright too, including: Booker T v Eddie Guerrero for the TV Title Juvi v Konnan Jericho v Malenko for the Cruiserweight Championship DDP v Raven v Benoit in a triple threat match (Which was a fantastic match and probably the only one I've seen from an uncensored PPV) Bret Hart v Curt Hennig Sting v Scott Hall Hogan v Savage in a cage

Mr. Carlisle posted:On paper Uncensored 1997 sounds like a decent lineup. It included: For '97, Malenko/Guerrero was tremendous, Glacier/Mortis was decent. Dragon and Psychosis phoned it in, the tag match was awful, the main was a clusterfuck (with, granted, an awesome post-match moment), and there's a worthless Bagwell/Riggs strap match and a completely uninteresting Prince Iaukea vs. Rey Mysterio match that actually got the crowd to not care about Rey. In '98, yes, the triple threat was outstanding. Eddie and Booker had a slow, rough match that was mostly there to move the Chavo angle along. Jericho/Malenko was nearly disappointing because Jericho wasn't really JERICHO in the ring yet, but it set up the big Jericho/Malenko angle so it's usually forgiven. Juvi/Konnan was completely unmemorable. Hart/Hennig was slow, long and boring, Sting/Hall was slow, not as long and boring, there's a Nash vs. Giant match that's slow, short and boring, and Hogan/Savage was a slow, long, loving terrible match that would have been worst match of the year if WCW hadn't signed Warrior.

One of the best parts about being a WCW fan during that time was that the wrestlers at any given point in time were probably just as confused as the fans about what the hell was going on.

You need to re-find that and post it, because that's amazing. The closest thing today would be Nexus cornering Cena, Sheamus running in and beating the hell of him and leaving without comment, and then Nexus stomping Cena in their confusion

I can only imagine now a heel who wants to prove he is the baddest dude in the company. So he says he is a bigger bad dude than all of the other bad dudes on the show put together. Then he sets out to prove it by running in and beating up all the babyfaces currently in feuds on the show. I can only imagine Scott Steiner doing this.

Yes the entire idea was it would all build up to a big blow off with Goldberg. Russo booked an I Quit match between the two for the blow off and had it go six minutes. Amazing.

I've never understood why people blame Sid's winning streak on WCW as bad booking and them trying to pass it off as real. As it was said a few posts before this one they kept saying how ridiculous his streak was and that he was more or less making it up as he went. At the time I thought it was hilarious and I totally "got" it. Of course the streak wasn't real, and Sid was just being Sid (in character and in the storyline) and adding losses as wins and inflating his own score just to make his case for being Goldberg's opponent. The whole angle was pretty funny in the same absurd way that Jericho naming off a list of his 1004 holds was funny.

I think people get it mixed up with the storyline where Goldberg had to recreate his original streak or be fired, and they would count every time he speared and jack hammered someone outside a match as a win.

Sid had Charles Robinson as his personal cheerleader and scorekeeper, and I can't remember why. He would hold up signs showing the appropriate number of wins though.

This is incorrect. They would count every time he speared and jackhammered someone outside a match as 15 wins.

Let's see here: Schiavone, not once, but twice, announcing actions by THE Disco Inferno, Russo covered in fake blood delivering a promo, and at least 3 pinfalls counted without even covers by Nash, plus 5 pinfalls total in like a 40-second span. Yeah, it's a wonder WCW died after all.

Wazzu posted:WCW was a portal leading to the abyss, with no bottom possible. You know, I go back and look at it again, and with the way the ref sort of drops, and hesitates before the counts the first phantom pin, it almost seems like he screwed up, and WCW being, well, WCW, there was no voice in the refs ear telling him he hosed up, so he just figured "I'm down here, I should do SOMETHING, or I'm gonna look like an idiot!"

It takes a big man to bury 1/4th of the roster in one match. Imagine if the first time the Nexus attacked, Cena was in the center of the ring and won decisively. Nothing about that clip makes sense in a positive way.

The back issue of the Observer dealing with the infamous Beach Blast mini movie was just posted, so it seemed like a good time to revive this thread.quote:After its television show reached a new low in retarded wrestling angles on Saturday, the hierarchy of World Championship Wrestling needs a thorough housecleaning. Here is the video in question: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsqA4w9IbeQ This thing has been written about so many times that I think everyone knows about it, but reading about it in the context of the time is interesting.
