    WCW felt like it went through the attitude era, ruthless aggression era, pg era and modern era in less than 5 yrs

    • @Beavie
      @Beavie Před 10 měsíci +9

      And they took all the worst parts of each era.

      I agree but I think the PG era and the modern era are one in the same.

    Jack saying Eric Bischoff takes his time with a basic heel promo, is basically how Bischoff says hi when he does his 83 Weeks podcast! Conrad: "How you doing Eric?" Eric: *Takes 25 minutes to say what probably take 3 at the most*

    • @sebastianbruckwilder5720
      @sebastianbruckwilder5720 Před 2 lety +8

      To ne fair, it’s the only podcast where Conrad Thomson isnt able to interrupt every 3 seconds 😂

    • @WOOOPdoctorFROGhere
      @WOOOPdoctorFROGhere Před rokem

      the best example of Eric waffling on is when Conrad asks him if he regrets not having a profit share on NWO merchandise. Eric must spend at least 10-15 minutes seemingly trying to convince himself that the money doesn't matter, even though it clearly does and he knows full well that he's missed out on millions.

    • @adamlucas2203

      Every Conrad podcast is non stop shilling for his business, shilling for other people and Conrad interrupting

  • @effarrjay
    @effarrjay Před 2 lety +66

    If you thought that was bad Jack, you should see one of the weirdest Thunders of the year 2000 (May 3, 2000) where Vince Russo enforces 'New York Rules', meaning that every match contains no rules, no referees and every wrestler has to count their own pinfall or submission. (By the way, this show takes place in Memphis, Tennesee.) Russo's 'New York Rules' produce a series of matches rife with interference that end in weird and confusing manners where neither the crowd nor commentators know what is going on. Six out of the seven undercard matches go shorter than 5 minutes. Then, the main event is a 41-person battle royal to decide the No.1 contender for the World title, which features an underwhelming final WCW appearance from Randy Savage. I've only seen a few matches from this episode and I already felt like I was losing my mind.

    @leonardopereira1704 Před 2 lety +22

    Both times the Red Liquid™ missed, it was aiming for Kevin Nash. I'm 100% certain that he either flat out said he wasn't taking that "bump," or, and this is more likely, he was told exactly where to stand and purposely moved a few feet over.

    • @woobgamer5210
      @woobgamer5210 Před 3 měsíci

      i think Kevin Nash was on the booking committee for WCW at this point in time (surprisingly later than the fingerpoke of doom)

    WCW 1999-2001 was my very first introduction into wrestling and Jack you have completely encapsulated exactly how it felt back then and all these years later, I'd forgotten what all that frustration and disbelief felt like 😂 this series is brilliant and I can't wait for more! Love the editing on this too 😁.

  • @TheThird1977
    @TheThird1977 Před 2 lety +7

    Great video, but a wee correction; Van Hammer was called Major Stash because he literally refused to be called Private Stash (despite it making perfect sense for his gimmick) because he didn't want to seem beneath his stablemates.

    The thing with Ernest "The Cat" Miller making the ref call a count-out. If I recall correctly, at the start of the Bischoff/Russo era they announced either no count-outs or possibly just no DQs in general. So The Cat was forcing the ref to enforce a rule that he wasn't supposed to.

    I'll be honest, I thought it was gonna be the September 25th, 2000 episode of Nitro (the one where Russo won the title) but that episode has been brought up so many times before. Russo winning wasn't even the weirdest thing on that episode. Worth a look.

  • @denniswilliams6519

    11:32 probably the best recreation of Billy Kidman I’ve ever heard. 😂 I watched this episode of nitro right after watching this video and I came back to this part once I heard Billy say the line. Jack’s recreation sounds more like Billy Kidman than Billy Kidman.

    Me and my friends were huge WCW fans back in the day. I remember changing the channel after seeing Eric and Vinny Ru were going to be opening the show. The guys I was with asked why I was changing it. I told them we can catch the first match on Raw, Eric and Vinny Ru won't say anything important, and by the time the match is done they will be done talking. Well, 2 out of three wasn't bad. By the time I flipped back to Nitro Eric and Vinny were STILL cutting their promo.
