Ah, the good old days of WCW Worldwide before it became a clip show (.... and WCW went belly up). Dose anybody else miss the chance to see guys like Rick Fuller, Mike Enos, and Barry Darsow (who uses barley legal in the vid) win matches?

The older Worldwide with Scotty Flamengo squashing bitches, Liger featured during the opening sequence, Jesse Ventura, bags of awesomeness

I've been saying that someone like Knox should use the Barely Legal as a finisher. That shit looked painful. Worldwide was awesome. Used to get up at 7am before school and watch it. The banter between Heenan and Tony Schiavonie used to be hilarious when they hosted it.

Watching jobber tag matches between High VOltage and Disordlery COnduct I miss.

I loved how Flair would show up as champ every so often and get a good match out of Hard Working Bobby Walker and the rest of Teddy Longs jobber stable.

I kinda miss WCW as a whole. With so many wrestlers on their roster and 7 hrs of programming a week at one point, alot of the undercard talent really got a chance to actually wrestle. Their PPVs through 1997 were also good in regards to the variety of talent appearing on them each month. People rag on Hogan for staying on top too long during the nWo years but there were numerous events where he wasn't apart of the main event. For example, the Savage/DDP feud was the main event for a couple PPVs in early 1997. That's a big disconnect from current WWE events where the main event is typically rehashed title matches.

Hogan would always take time off during the NBA playoffs because ratings would always decrease and when his contract would come up he would ask for more money pointing to the fact that ratings dropped when he wasn't there.

Hogan is the smartest man in wrestling by far.
