"Jericho, who was wrestling Eddie Guerrero (his tag team partner, figure that one out), started running down the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Well the heat was expensive this time and the crowd went totally out of control throwing things. Ringsiders were getting nailed with bottles and and security had to call 30 back up police officers.

LOL. I actually remember this despite it only being my first few months of watching. They randomly announced the entire undercard during WCW Saturday Night.

I feel like WWE has done that at some point. Maybe not only 2 announced matches but I definitely remember a B-PPV like Backlash or Judgment Day back in the late 90s/early 2000s having only 3 or 4 announced matches and then like 5 undercard matches that didn't even have a storyline.

Also in 2011 or 2012 I remember they went on a streak of not announcing half the PPV card and you'd end up getting like 3 or 4 unannounced matches with no build.

It's not an "lolWCW" one. But this one might be my favorite still.

What? No legit judge would allow you to sue for non-existent or speculative wrongs or injuries! I'm already done with this show!

Also in 2011 or 2012 I remember they went on a streak of not announcing half the PPV card and you'd end up getting like 3 or 4 unannounced matches with no build.
Didn't they do this with the last PPV? lol

Had December to Dismember never happened, Paul Heyman might have stayed in control of the ECW brand for the forseeable future. Wonder if it would have still wound being the pseudo-development show it ended up being by 2008.

It'd be nice if they actually gave Heyman the book to run the show.

"WCW FALL BRAWL POLL RESULTS
Thumbs up - 1 (00.8%)
Thumbs down - 112 (99.2%)
In the middle - 0 (00.0%)
- The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: September 21, 1998

"Whether Fall Brawl set a new standard for awful in PPV is a debatable issue. What isn't debatable is that it was near the top of any list of the worst wrestling PPV shows ever" - The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: September 21, 1998.

"Fall Brawl featured a main event so bad it was even worse then people's imaginations would have been of the Jay Leno match going in. With the possible exception of the Triple Decker cage match a few years back on Uncensored and perhaps some Andre the Giant matches towards the end of his career, this may have been the worst PPV main event of all time, about 20 minutes of bad wrestling made worse by a finish that simply defied description. Unlike previous WCW shows with bad main events, they didn't have anything on the undercard with the exception of the Raven match that remotely saved it, and featured four other matches that would have won worst match on any normal 'bad' PPV show" - The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: September 21, 1998

"Rick Steiner went to a no-contest with Scott Steiner...Bagwell collapsed as if he'd re-injured his neck...The poor announcers had to sell it even though NOBODY in the crowd was buying it. They then had to do this long angle of the match ending, everyone acting concerned and Bagwell being immobilized and put on a stretcher and taken to the ambulance. It was torture because the crowd was booing rather than acting concerned. Since nobody bought it, nobody cared when when Scott and Bagwell jumped out of the ambulance and attacked Rick -*" - The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: September 21, 1998

lol first wrestling PPV I ever watched
