TAPE REVIEW #2: WCW: BEST OF HALLOWEEN HAVOC

And we're back for another review. And yes, it's another WCW 'Best Of' tape. This time, it's WCW: Best of Halloween Havoc. For all you idiots out there, this was the PPV WCW used to run in October, during Halloween Time Okay, time to get to the review. This time I will provide a rating scale to rate every match on here.

Okay, Play has been pressed and we're off. Oh, look who it is, Scheme Gene again He's going over with me what I'm about to witness

MATCH 1: Great Muta and Terry Funk vs Sting and Ric Flair: Thunderdome Cage Match- Havok '89.

Wow, here's one for you NWA lovers. Muta looks fucking bad ass and is the TV Champ. He came out with Gary Hart. This must be during the whole J-Tex Corporation. This is Sting comes out to a huge pop. And here comes Flair w/ Ole Anderson. Anderson looks like he got stung by a few bees on the way out for some reason.

K, Match cuts to Flair vs Funk. Muta's face is painted red. Flair chops Funk a lot and tags Sting. The thunderdome cage is very cool looking by the way. It has like vines wrapped around it to make it look scary. OOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Sting and Muta go at it now. Sting has Muta up on his shoulders and Muta's head is through one of the openings in the cage.

**Quick cut to Flair with a Figure on Muta, but Jim Ross (yep, that one) says submissions don't count. ROFL ROFL, Sting just grabbed a hold to one of the vines and swung towards Funk like tarzan. Hot Shit by the Stinger. What a play.

LOL, the announce actually called Sting "Tarzan." Sting flies off the cage, about 4 feet from the top rope, with a cross body on Funk. Sting is on fire.

Flair has got Funk in the Four now. Sting hits a splash on Funk as he is still in the move. Ole takes out Gary Hart. Gary Hart throws in the towel. The Ref calles for the Bell.

Well, I guess the towel was the symbol that your side lossed. Wierd way to end a cage match.

WINNERS: Flair and Sting

RATING: 4.5*/5
-------------------------------------------------------

MATCH 2: Nasty Boys vs Steiners: US TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH-Halloween Havoc '90.

WOAH, The Clip cuts right to the two teams brawling in the ring, NO ENTRANCE_STYLE. Rick and Knobbs going at it in the ring. Saggs whips Scott into the steel railing outside the ring. HEYMAN IS ANNOUNCING

Steiners hit a bulldog from the top rope. Rick just took Knobb's head off with a closeline.

**HOLY SHIT, CUT TO NASTY BOYS HITTING A SPIKE PILEDRIVER ON RIC FROM THE TOP ROPE SICK

Saggs has Scott in a boston crab now. **Cut to Rick coming in a cleaning house. Belly to BELLY on Knobbs. Without the announcers help, I still cannot tell the difference between the Nastys

**Cut to Scott hitting the Frankensteiner on Saggs. 1................2...........3

WINNERS: STEINER BROTHERS

RATING: 3*/5

---------------------------------------------------

MATCH 3: Sting vs Sid Vicious: World Title Match-Havoc '90.

LOL, the announcer is making it seem like Sid is eight feet taller than Sting, when he's not. Sting is wearing pink. What a homo. Sting was kicking Sid's ass until Sid mangled him with a closeline. Sid hits a nice powerslam. Sting tries a Stinger Splash, but missed.

**Cut to Sting and Sid fighting on the ramp. Sid just powerslamed Sting on the ramp.

Sting runs from the ramp. full speed, and dives over the top rope into the ring. He dove like 5 feet horizontally to Sid.

**Cut to Sting hitting a plancha on Sid to the outside. Here comes Flair and Anderson to help Sid. Horsemen_style. Nick Patrick tries the throw them out as Sting and Sid dissapear into the crowd.

LOL, Sting comes back a few feet taller. Sting tries a bodyslam and Sid falls on top of him for the three count NEW CHAMP NEW CHAMP.

Wait, Sting comes back in and hits a Stinger Splash. Sting gets a rollup and pins Sid. WOAH, WHAT's going on here?

Yeah, so Barry Windam posed as Sting for a few minutes and let Sid pin him. Then the real Sting came back and pinned Sid. Probably would of fooled me if I saw it live

WINNER: STING

RATING: 2.5*/5

----------------------------------------------

MATCH 4: Vader, Cactus Jack, Abdullah, Diamond Studd vs Sting, The Worst Wrestler Ever (aka El Gigante), and the Steiner Brothers: Chamber of Horros Match-Havoc 91.

**NOTE: K, few things as I pause the tape. I will refer to El Gigante as "EL SUCK" during this. And the Diamond Studd is Scott Hall for tjose of you that didn't know.

Okay, and here's a LOL right off the bat. The entrance way has a haunted house and tombstones all around IT. The set looks like it was constructed the night before by someone who probably had other things to do... like watching paint dry. Whomever wrote that scrbble on the tombstones failed Penminship. BIG TIME.

Okay, we cut to everyone inside this crazy cage. The cage looks exactly like the Thunderdome cage and is pretty tall. So, it's Sting and Rick vs Cactus and Abby on the outside of the cage and everyone else is fighting on the inside. Abby has some kind of weapon that looks like a stick with a mop attached to it. Sting swings Cactus into the cage and the cage looked like it was about to break. Cheap ass WCW.

**Quick cut to everyone inside the ring and Sting now has Abby's stick. The weapon Sting is beating everyone with Abby's stick.

**Quick cut to some budget Referee cam, which looks like the helmet Rick Moranis used in Honey I Shrunk the Kids Steiners hit some double team move in the corner to Cactus as the dreaded "Chair of Torture" is coming down.

LOL, Cactus almost got sqashed by the chair. Rick was kicking him to tell him to move and then Abby comes over and tells him to get the fuck out of there. I haven't seen El Suck. Must be out of breath after 3 seconds of walking. Oh, there he is walking back into the ring from the outside, almost killing himself in the process. So the wresstlers have all stopped fighting to watch a fucking chair, which is in a cage, come down to the ring. What is this chair the almighty creator or something. It's like the scene out of Mars Attacks when everybody is staring at the mother ship landing in the begginning of the movie.

Jim Ross is putting over the chair more than any other wrestler in the ring. Must be special.

**Quick cut to Vader putting Rick in the chair. Rick gets out of the chair and hits a closeline on Vader.

ROFL ROFL: **Quick Cut to a clear shot of El Suck doing nothing for at least 40 seconds. Abby is climbing the cage and El Suck is just standing there with his hands on Abby's back, looking like he's about to drop dead. He's not even looking at Abby for Christ's sake, he's staring at the floor. Cactus Jack is busted open. Lot's of standing around again. The wrestlers seemed lost, but who can blame them with an electric chair sitting in the ring.

**Cut to Abby putting Rick in the chair and Cactus ready to pull the switch. Rick reverses and puts Abby in the chair. LOL, Abby is clearly in the chair for Cactus to see. Cactus is waiting forever to pull the thing. LOL, Rick is yelling at Cactus to pull it. WTF? Cactus pulls the lever and Abdullah gets cooked.

And that was interesting to say the least.

WINNERS: Sting and co.

RATING: 3*/5: I love the multi-man matches.

----------------------------------------------

MATCH 5: Jake Robers vs Sting: Coal Minor's Glove Match-Havoc '92.

Sting has to spin a wheel before the match to decide what match he gets to have with Jake.........and the worst match on there comes up. How about that.

LMAO, Sting looks pissed as hell when it landed on Coal Minor's Glove. It's like the company never told him that would be the match or something I could of sworn he just called Schivonie a piece of shit. Schivonie was present as Sting spun the wheel.

Yes, Jesse Ventura is announcing....and Ross again, minus Cowboy Hat and repetitive catch phrases. Ventura is wearing a count drakula cape and is telling me that the match is unsanctioned and if Jake and Sting get hurt, then "Oh Well." Pretty harsh. Hey, I bet Test can relate to that. ZINGGGGGGGGGGGGG.

**Quick Cut to Jake almost completely pulling one over Sting, telling him to look towards the audience as Jake went for the Glove. Oh, a Coal Minor's Glove match is just your everyday object on a poll match. Now, there is a glove on the poll. A glove made of steel

Jake and Sting fight on the outside and Jake gets whipped into the stairs. Jake tries to go up the poll again and Sting catches him. So far, Sting has worn different color pants every time. He has on whte ones now. The guy is not only master of the Scorpion Deathlock, but a fashion Guru as well. What a combo.

Holy shit. Sting just swung around the poll and elbowed Jake in the face on the way down.

**Woah, quick cut to Cactus Jack coming down and giving Jake his snake. Sting has got the GLOVE. Jake has his Cobra. Sting nails Jake and the snake bites Jake. Jake is holding the snake to his face

WINNER: STING

RATING: 2.8*/5
