The #1 thing I miss about WCW. Is the sound the ring made when wrestlers took bumps.

Honestly 80's wcw is a gem unfortunately no one wants to acknowledge the good of wcw

Jericho's list of 1001 moves was the best thing that ever appeared on WCW TV

Not giving the LWO a proper go was a mistake, those guys were fricken awesome to watch. Pity that during the majority of their matches, commentators wouldn't shut up about Hogan or NWO

What about Steiner's Roid Rage promo that Buff kept trying to stop?

I remember Scott Steiner's promos back then . They were pretty good .

The entire existence of shockmaster and the judy bagwell on a forklift match, nuff said

The British Bulldog injuring his back on Warrior's trap door and then dying because of all the medications he was taking because of that injury

I bet Goldberg was embarrassed when William Regal pretty much exposed him in the ring. Too bad Regal got fired because of that.

I have heard that the Goldberg vs Regal match wasn’t supposed to be a squash but a regular match as a change of pace for Goldberg’s squash matches, and to show that Goldberg wasn’t a one-trick pony. This is why the commentators in the build up to the match were talking about how difficult the match was going to be for Goldberg. The problem was that Goldberg hadn’t really done a match like this on TV before (this is why Goldberg looks nervous when he’s walking to the ring), and Regal unfortunately exposed Goldberg as being _really_ green in the ring when it came to the technical aspect of wrestling. That was the main problem; not that Regal pulled a shoot on Goldberg, but that his superior technical skills made Goldberg look bad.

What about sid vicious breaking his leg ?

I will always believe regal over bischoff over being told to work a solid 6 minute match with Goldberg. Also dean melenko was the perfect midcarder.

My moment memory was when Sid Vicious broke his leg kicking Scott Steiner.

I’m so confused as to why Luger beat Hogan for the belt on Nitro 5 days before Road Wild where Hogan would just win it back. Granted it was a great moment but still what was the point? Lmao

I felt bad for martel i heard he was supposed to have a long tv title reign...

Late nineties WCW has enough of these moments to make two more lists.

All I can think of here is Nash yelling, "NECK BROKEN!" 😂🤣😂😱😎

How bout when Paul Orndorff suffered a injury inside the ring but the others wrestlers kept on wrestling for a few minutes afterward until they realized he was really hurt

Unfortunately, Goldberg destroyed Bret Hart's carrer with that kick, if that not happened probably Bret Hart was in WWE or TNA in the 2000s

You forgot one. You'll never forget the name of (Goldust) DUSTIN RHODES.

Wait so you're telling me Goldberg wasn't supposed to end Bret's career and have him get a stroke 2 years later. The more you know

Bobby Heenan had a legit neck injury that Brian Pillman knew about it wasnt from the shock of a fan it was cause brian rattled him

WhatCulture Wrestling: 10 Things Not Meant to Happen in WCW, know any more? Botchamania: Hold my beer.

What about Ric Flair leaving WCW for WWF in 1991 and taking the World Heavyweight Championship with him? Pretty sure THAT wasn't supposed to happen.

Love that Chris Jericho WCW T SHIRT

Pillman was a mad genius.

Wow..... I forgot about Martel's run in Dubya Cee Dubya

Maybe Steiner wanted to get fired.

That time Booker T called Hulk Hogan the N-word during a promo..

Lol Festus is a quite the silly sausage

Jericho: ARM DRAG!

1:45 Perry kinda looking like Bagwell there, but rough 😂

I'm reading The Death of WCW again, and it's so frustrating to see the continual backstage and sometimes onscreen arrogance of Hogan, Nash, Bischoff and of course Russo.

Why does no one remember that part in Steiner's WCW rant where he puts over the nWo?

Chris Jericho was Perfect for the bon jovi/Axel rose time period

WWE Raw 2 for XBox shows how slow Patrick is as a counter. You can choose between him, Mike Chioda, Hebner, and Tim White in exhibition matches, but if you have Smackdown matches you either get him or Chioda and no choices. Chioda will do a quick count, but Patrick has the slowest count EVER. You basically have to pin a guy for ten seconds for him to reach three and even then you’re lucky if he gets to three. So yeah, I totally believe he was counting fast. For him.

How many more times will the shockmaster incident be featured in a top 10 countdown?

There's a video of Patrice Oneal breaking down the shockmaster video I highly recommend it

the dean malenko goof was the funniest shit i had seen in awhile when wcw was on tv

What Regal did to Goldberg someone should have done to Hulk Hogan

Goldberg vs ddp Halloween havoc the light's didn't go out in the middle of the match it went out in the beginning they tie up in the middle of the ring there tie they both fell out of the ring then the light's go out i guess u can say the fall was so scary the PvP left never to be seen again until monday

Isnt there gazillion interviews with Regal saying that this was not him being stiff, but he was told to wrestle longer match with Goldberg? Which turned out to look like Regal was stiffing Goldie, because Goldberg didnt know what to do.

You forgot a big one. Tony Schiavone pretty much telling everyone to turn to Raw to see Foley when the championship ultimately causing Nitro to lose the ratings war and never beat Raw again

In the award for most appearances goes to Bill Goldberg. The same Bill Goldberg that dropped the undertaker on his head, that sonuvabich

LOL the thought of a bunch of faces arguing over a legitimate 3 count and demanding the match to be restarted to get the desired outcome does make them sound like "bellends" (me not Brithsh)

1990: Sting's knee injury at Clash of the Champions, when they were trying to set up the program with Flair.

Bringing The Ultimate Warrior back. Dear God, what an astonishing dumpster fire.

This list makes as much sense as Steiner math

Jericho was and is the best!!!

Andy give us a wave, Andy Andy gives us a wave 👋

7:54 I mean I wouldn't blame goldberg for Bret having cancer more than a decade later

Regal was fired 6 months after but I guess The Oxford English Dictionary can change the definition of soon after to mean 6 months.

I remember years ago watching Halloween havoc 98 and thinking to myself what the hell this has ended to soon and I realized wcw botched there own ppv what idiots

Scott Steiner is a god damn hero and the wrestling world doesn't deserve him.

0:23 I still say this was good

11. Nexus getting buried by Super Cena.

In all fairness, Judy Bagwell on a Forklift was actually a decently wrestled match. Go back and watch it.

How about buff bagwells injury one of the worst injuries in wrestling history

Vince Russo in his wrestling career is UNDEFEATED!!!! With one world title win!! Clearly his WCWs unsung hero!!

What Culture Wrestling.. WCW

Big boot? He standing side kicked his brain out.

#10 my favorite moment there but I already switched from wcw to then wwf long before he scott said it.😁

Goldberg was an unsafe wrestler period - Hart’s career wasn’t the only one ended.

ECW

The ending to Starrcade 97 world title match is an infamous one. Basically what was supposed to happen was Hogan would seemingly get the win and retain the title via fast count and a debuting Bret Hart would take over as ref insuring another screwjob wouldn't happen and Sting wins the title cleanly what actually happened was the ref didn't do the fast count, but Bret jumped in anyway and restarted the match and took over as ref which did result in Sting winning the title but not in the way it was supposed to go.

I don't understand how they kick is solely blamed for Brett's retirement... He took multiple chair shots to the head in his career. MMA fighters get kicked in the head WAY harder and end up getting knocked out, and still have 10+ year careers doing so.

Man i hated the way the refs counted 3 when pining

3:53 *Capers?* 🤷‍♂️

Watch the shockmaster video...where did the piece of wood go ?

I've said it a million times, but the *finger poke of doom* made all the sense in the world. Why in the hell would Nash actually fight Hogan? They were friends. What they did was such a heel move that you're still talking about it 20+ years later 😂

How does "Hulk Hogan, we comin fo you n***a"!" not make the list?!

hi

So walk me through the logic... When was there an instance of a legitimate injury that WAS supposed to happen

Goldberg didn't end Brets career. He just put the final bump in his career.

That booker t saturn match was really good 🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️" nothing you should go out of your way to see " who writes this shit?????

WCW was absolutely terrible the last couple of years

It's not humanly possible to describe the absolute cringey, awkward brilliance of watching that Regal/Goldberg match when it first aired. It was a perfect combination of Goldberg's rising, unearned popularity + his inability to work an actual match + Regal refusing to job + live television. You can find that match and watch it anywhere, but NOTHING was more hilarious than seeing a flabby Regal make Goldberg look like a confused 7 year-old stumbling onstage in his first school play.

2000

Still think that Malenko did it on purpose. Just a last FU to the WCW before leaving. Too bad it kind of screwed up Kidman’s chance to shine as one of the top guys this ppv (he had three matches that night).

I get what you meant. But Goldberg hit Hart with a super kick, not a big boot.

What isna squash match

I really dont understand wats da big deal aboit Nick Patrick slow count instead of da fast one so wat he mess dat up thats not a reason too put da belt back on Hogan if anyone read this could you please explain to me wats da problem wit dat

Was that a Dean Malenko error though? Or really had wcw booking?

Hmmm. Shinee of these are not incredibly accurate. Mostly i have heard from different wrestlers both ways on the Regal Goldberg but i have to believe (although they match turned out horrible 😒🥴) that it wasn't planned as a "squash match" . Eric Bishoff, Regal and Goldberg a long as a few others have cited that it's want and they wanted to see 🙈 how Goldberg could do in longer matches. Over heard it more than once from Eric bischoff and Goldberg on various documentaries.

Think the biggest one, would be when they spoiled Mankind's title win. The whole audience switching over, was not meant to happen!

🇹🇭

Goldberg is in a lot of these 😐

XPW! XPW!! XPW!!!

100% believe regal over bischoff

Vince Russo and Bill Goldberg are the reason why Bret Hart injury happened to him same thing with Owens. Vince Russo and Vince McMahonfor Owen Hart falls

Goldberg didn't end Bret's career. Bret kept wrestling after the match with Goldberg instead of taking time off to heal. It's more on Bret.

Heenan had a back or neck operation. He lost it due to telling people not to touch him. Do the research

Wrestling was better when it wasn't so scripted. Scripted = stiff. Yeah, you have to have some things scripted and planned out, but sometimes letting the talent just wing it gives you some of the best stuff.

Goldberg ended a few wrestlers careers

Again... Goldbergs kick was bad... bit does it help that Bret being Bret carried on wrestling for a few weeks? That couldn't have helped him at all...

WCW got really weird after 99

Steven Regal???
