Kenny McBride Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 I'd say the 1990's was the best period for WCW.The 1990s was the only period for WCW. ;)Seriously though, get everything you can from Halloween Havoc '91 through to Superbrawl III. That's the entire Dangerous Alliance run (lots of good stuff from Austin, Rude, Arn and Bobby, Steiners, Sting, Windham, Rhodes, Steamboat, Pillman and more) plus the joint winner of "Best WCW Show Ever" (with Starrcade '90).

shinyahashimoto Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 What's an urinage?I'd recommend picking up some Nitro DVDs if you can, they usually put more effort into that than the PPVs. Some good PPV events are Fall Brawl '97 & Spring Stampede 99. Best period probably 97-98. If you're interested in the wacky Russo 2000 version, there's a great "Death of WCW" set of video files which I downloaded, they will be floating around the net somewhere.

King Cobra Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Hello everyone. I never saw any WCW (not even any clips) and was wondering if anyone could tell me what there best period was and where to buy tapes of the era?It's just my opinion, but Superbrawl III is the best PPV that WCW ever promoted. I know Superbrawl III has already been mentioned in this thread, but I cannot emphasise enough how great a PPV it was.Starrcade '89 was also a very good event, perhaps my second favourite WCW PPV ever.

Dai Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 What's an urinageIt's a type of suplex. It's what the Rock Bottom/Book End are, except they've been personalised a bit.They called the Rock Bottom a urinage, but can someone confirm whether that is the actual move a urinage is? Isnt the urinage meant to be the spinning version of the Rock Botton. Takeshi Morishima has added the move to his repitoire in the last year, and his version has the spin. Hiroshi Hase also made it famous, did he not? And his version (the original?) had the spinning element, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rock and Booker changed it slightly, Rock just did it falling forward, and Booker does it falling to his knees. I remember someone doing a sit out version of it to. I don't know who invented it by I've seen it done like that in older matches and in the 64 wrestling games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Supremo Posted May 30, 2006 Paid Members Share Posted May 30, 2006 Also, would I be right in saying that the first few In Your House events weren't shown here?Yes, you would be right. In Your House events weren't shown on Sky until some time in 1997. I believe the first was In Your House 14, "Revenge Of The Taker" in April of that year.
