What are they playing at?

Thankfully the WCW channel is still delivering the goods…

Steiners vs Arn Anderson and Steve Austin from a June 92 Saturday Night…

And Great American Bash 90 in full…

Shouldn’t need to say it on here, I’m sure everyone knows, but the Midnight Express vs Southern Boys match off this show is absolute quality.

Amusing to imagine Hunter popping his head into the office, “seems to be a bit of a buzz about this Vault thing, have you uploaded mine and Shawn’s classic Hell in a Cell yet?”

You can tell they uploaded it under duress. They mis-labelled the time stamp. You can add at least a few zeroes to that 57:04.

Yeah the WWE Vault has had a much higher ratio of shit to good lately.

Every time I say Randy Orton or Usos or Trips or Cena or the rest of that shite on the Vault channel

@wandshogun09 appreciate the WCW palate cleansers. Bash 90 was one of those great ever present WCW videos in the early/mid 90s and one of my faves and it took many years to realize that in fact the great Midnight Express vs Southern Boys match wasn’t actually the opener but the 5th match on the show, and the actual opener of Pillman vs Nature Boy Buddy Landell is a very nice little match and we get a bonus Harley Race match in 1990 where he still looks pretty good for a guy who seemed like Lugers old uncle and Vaders dad a year later.

Depress yourself by sorting the Vault videos by most viewed. It's a wonder anything of interest is uploaded at all.

If you want even more depressing YouTube stats, Wrestlewar 92 has around 60,000 views in four weeks. "Kevin Nash shoots on what caused the downfall of WCW" was one of the recommended videos when watching that, also from 4 weeks ago...80,000 views. What more, in 2026, could possibly be said about the downfall of WCW? And something as shite as that has more views than a classic PPV.

I tend to find that there's lots of people who would rather listen to some people talk about wrestling than watch wrestling, and I don't think that's unique to wrestling either.

The only thing I remember about that HIAC (apart from it being long and boring.) is JR triumphantly announcing the stopwatch time for it straight after the pinfall (which they rarely did.)

Before they even got in the ring, they were desperate to proclaim it as an epic classic. Even a teenage, HBK superfan like me saw through it. Absolute shite.

Might give this a go purely because I don't remember the TV qualifiers and back in the slower TV days, KOTR qualifiers were ace, actual name matches consistently for a few weeks.

All I remember is there was an Ahmed Johnson vs Vader qualifier on Raw at some point in that 96 tournament. So that’s me sold on the strength of that alone.

Yes, quickly scrolled through, saw that the second match on there is our Ahmed vs Vader and I’m sold.

Would love to see them do the same for the first few KOTRs, 1993 in particular had eclectic gems like 3 Perfect vs Evil Doink matches, Narcissist vs not yet crazy Backlund, Bam Bam vs Typhoon, Chico Razor Ramon vs Chico Santana, Duggan vs Papa Shango, Tatanka vs Giant Gonzalez, Shawn vs Kona Crush and Mr Hughes vs Kamala.
