oddly enough this is one of my all-time favorite WCW matches. i loved how Jay kept taunting Hogan throughout the match, pointing to his chin, as if daring Hogan to hit him. i sure do miss WCW.
I always did like the Road Wild concept of being outdoors. I just like the feeling of watching wrestling outdoors like WM24. it gives it a different feel. not an overproduced show with lights and shit. would love to see TNA (one day hopefully) or WWE do a ppv like.
for u who say this is a joke u need to watch the ric flair vince mcmahon match from the 02 rumble and say that again. Plus u need to remember what Bischoff and Hogan did to DDP's wife on the Nitro b4 this put urself in their shoes (Leno and DDP) and repharse that P.S Kimberly can kick Liz's ass anyday

I want everybody to know that if something happens to Jay Leno, I'm available to host the Tonight Show.' That was next to HOgan being in the match with Giant, and Giant ripped off the eye patch:
I guess HOgan better keep an eye on the Giant.
\That Heenan is a character! I sure miss him on commentary!
This is what wrestling was all about, still pisses me off when Time Warner destroyed WCW, I respect Eric for the fact that he basically told them to f**k off. I still dont understand why they had to put restrictions on wcw it was fine as it was but these f**king media pricks only think about money.
If I had money I would definitely revive WCW and put any wrestling companies back to TV-14 and if any company makes a complaint that I should put it in family viewing I would simply say FUCK OFF!!!!
Very stupid! I wish Hogan would have tagged instead with Conan, than maybe The Hulkster may have had a chance against the "almighty" and "talented" wrestler Jay Leno. Conan would beat him with his hair.
Several things-I like let's get ready to suck it more! Buffer sux in comparision 2 HHH! There's1 thing I liked bout Hogan & Bischoff's team-Ms. Elizabeth! BEAUTIFUL woman! Dangerous Disciple couldn't stand him he's the whole reason Hogan & Rodman beat DDP & Malone. I was a Bulls fan (don't watch the NBA anymore-quit after MJ & Bulls split) when it came 2 WCW- DDP & Malone or Leno NOT Hogan & Rodman or Bischoff! Every1who thinks TNA's gonna bring on Mon Nite Wars round 2-NOT gonna happen sorry!
also, I love how Bischoff makes a point to have his arm around Liz (probably so the fans would think he's straight) during the walk to the ring but she tries to get away...and luckily does.
Well Michael Buffer says he is 6'0 but I agree no way. He is probably 5'7 or 5'6. And by the way Flair is 6'1 (I made a typo and listed him at 4'1). Actually Flair's wife is taller than Bischoff.
You're right, but wrestling agencies or whatever they're called always add a few inches and a few dozon pounds to wrestler's stats to make them seem bigger or more menacing. For example the Undertaker was always said to be over 7 feet tall but I believe he's only around 6'8"
Professional wrestling is nothing more then a traveling theater show. It's like Broadway pumped with steroids. So like with theater, you have to watch with a suspension of disbelief, like Jay Leno can actually hold his own against these men. When you watch and believe what you are seeing, it's kind of fun, right?
This mismatched celebrity match is just a small taste at how lowly WCW management thought of the fans' intelligence. Jay Leno?! That's all they could come up with? I was insulted when I first heard that Leno was going to wrestle. This match makes the LT Vs. Bam Bam match look like Steamboat/Savage.
About time we FINALLY have Hogan/Bischoff vs. DDP/Leno on here (the 24/7 version which I have sucks butt as they dubbed over the intros as well as the Tonight Show theme)!
I read in Bischoff's book that they made absolutely no money with these Road Wild PPV's because it was a free show. They should have at least charged those drunk bikers $5 to watch the show. One of the thousands of reasons why WCW went to hell.
Is Jay really 205lbs? He doesn't look that fat to me.
