Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted February 27, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted February 27, 2011 I'd say Souled Out 98 and Spring Stampede 99 are the two best all round cards there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarTheSlouch Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Define 'best' and what that means. Match wise/angle wise? Bash 96 for example aint great match wise but it angle wise after the NWO birth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobra1000 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I loved Souled Out, get Souled Out '97 too, featuring a really good Ladder Match nobody really talks about between Eddie Guerrero and Syxx. '99 is balls, i know people talk about the tazer incident the ended Goldberg's streak and the DDP v Goldberg match at Halloween Havoc as being pivitol moments in the downfall, but fuck me the Scott Hall - Goldberg Ladder Stun Gun match didn't help. Â '98 is really good too, depends what you want, are you viewing it as a history of wcw type thing, if so I'd reccomend Starrcade '97, finest build up to a woeful match ever. Or do you want just a quality ppv filled with wrestling? Road Wilds are usually fun with the unique setting, and of course World War III for crazy 60 man battle royal antics...

The Gaffer Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Speaking of balls I don't rate that Souled Out ladder match at all. But it's a fun, weird PPV. The setup was years ahead of it's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Maybe not so much ahead of its time set up wise...ECWs dark set up had been there for 3 years...first to have it on PPV tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Maybe I didn't mean woeful, I love the hype and the moments in the match, but yeah I just think the wrestling itself wasn't what it could have been...if it was anyone other than Sting/Hogan they probably would have been booed for being shit.

Oh, yeah, I agree the match wasn't great. But I didn't come out of it thinking I'd wasting my life. Maybe it was over before the importance the build-up had created had worn off for me.

ThePhenom Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Bash At The Beach 1996 and Spring Stampede 1999 I love, so I would say they are two of the best there. It's a shame you don't have Hog Wild 1996, thats an awesome show, both Ric Flair Vs Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit Vs Dean Malenko are among my favourite matches of all time.

The Total Package Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 souled out 97 needs to be watched its a different style PPV, its like watching Mad Max 3, never seen a PPV like it before or since, the matches are good-decent, but the show is just strange, in a good way, intro is still one of the best ever, with Bischoff coming off like some corrupt world leader, "we are in control". Â It also has one of the best sets ever, still puts modern day WWE to shame, Bischoff knew how to spend that Ted money. Â Starcade 95 is another I would checkout, WCW vs NJPW, the world cup of wrestling I think they called it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â The whole show was terrible I thought, can't think of anything that stands out. The opener with Eddie & Malenko was decent enough but no where near as good as some of their other matches and thats it for whats worth checking out, well maybe the Larry Eazy E match just for the spectactle of Eric in the ring.

Â It was an nWo PPV so everything was set up with thier colours (The ring looked awesome with an nWo logo and bikes and bikers were around the walkway etc) and to make them look better than the WCW guys eg. No music for anyone from WCW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
