Bill Goldberg turns heel

[gonzataker]

Rey mysterio like heel is rare

[leftyfourguns]

What the fuck is this shit lol

[iTubeYourDadsMinge]

Bischoff's wig= Fail.

[iTubeYourDadsMinge]

This was the most pointless (and potentially costly) heel turn in the history of wrestling. There was absolutely no reason to turn Goldberg heel at this stage, other than the clowns in the WCW trying make the company look unpredictable and exciting.

All this heel turn did was sabotage the Goldberg character entirely.

[ReALiTeeChEkk]

WCW was the shit back in the early NWO days but by this time it was getting worse by the minute. I don't know what happened to make it go from great to horrible. Wait a sec ?..... is that Vince Russo i see ?.... oh yeah that's right now i remember why.

[MrZachattack1996]

HHAAHAHA 0:37 ITS THE GOLDBERG TRUCK!!!!!! I MISS THESE DAYS

[MrJuventino1987]

@MrZachattack1996

This happened in 2000 and you were born in 1996 if i'm not mistaken. How can you remember this at the age of 4 unless you have a golden memory.

[kaneedge]

Eric Bischoff : PWI's Top 1 Ruin Machine of Professional Wrestling

[bruinfan1234]

@kaneedge #2, #1 is russo. TRUST ME ON THAT

[SaintsRow2OwnsGTA4]

tony schivony should take the place of faggy michael cole.

[mondes1964]

is that rey mysterio without a mask on at 0:28 with the blue clothes on???????????????

[TheCleitonJR]

@mondes1964 yes

[PringlesForDinner]

Haha I remember this. My favourite wrestler at the time was Nash and my brothers was Goldberg. We were both crushed haha.

[Rahman4Media]

Damn. Look how flat the audience went after Goldberg turned heel. I remember being really upset and took it to heart.

[45Yankeeclipper]

The worst Commentary I've ever heard man they can't even sell the impact properly.

[trumper316]

@TheMagee2002 Well, towards the end of WCW, Eric Bischoff had black hair anyways so I don't think that it was WWE's fault that Bischoff's hair was black. Nash, on the other hand, he is trying to bring back Diesel more than the Kevin Nash character.

[HyugaGin92]

Rey Mysterio was a brat too i see..

now he is my hero!

Booyaka Booyaka!

[thrillmaster76]

The kid in the beginning with the goldberg is the man sign probably riped it to shreads after the show

[JWade29]

this was the dumbest heel turn in WCW history

[ramennoodlechef]

haha is that Rey Mysterio with the khaki hat backwards???

[MrWrestlingGuy2010]

Honestly...I didn't think this was such a bad thing other than WCW losing their top baby face in the company. Had they had someone on the roster that would have been able to take the ball and run with it as a top baby face....this would have actually been a pretty damn good story line. The story actually made sense.

[MrLaneSir]

This was the end of WCW. Goldberg put butts in the seats in the WCW. Turning heel made no sense and the fans throw trash in the ring is like Hogan back in 96. Hogan's heel made sense. Goldberg didn't enough said. New Blood vs Millionare's Club was a joke. Storyline made no sense.

[thenaturallyinsane1]

god bischoff needed some just for men at that time...he was only in his 40's he shouldnt have let it go all gray it looked stupid

[murozman]

I want a Goldberg type neck!

[wwegangsta4lyf]

wcw was awsem and goldberg is the best

[neptuneniq]

at :21

lmao Juvi Juice!

[idodachachalikagrl]

"Who woulda thought that?!" By this point...EVERYBODY! Fuck you Vince Russo.

[talibanexpress]

huss huss huss huss huss

[youneveri]

I don't give a shit, Goldberg is the man!

[pimalabama]

is that mysterio unmasked at the begining??

[reaper61989]

@pimalabama Yes

[danteras23]

It's amazing how in less than two years they felt the need to change his character. It shows you how screwed up WCW was.

[Jackys57]

0:18 Rey ???? O_o

[069Meep069]

@Jackys57 Yes

[SoccerVidzz]

pff Austin's truck was way better

[Gshock714]

Cant believe this all took place 10 yrs ago,when all 3 promotions was worth watching including the attitude era.Now both TNA & WWE has gone to shit,not many people care to watch it anymore like they use to.

[UnitedIrelander]

Russo and Bischoff with the same old shit.

[Stevenio]

Lol "Goldberg truck' which was a complete rip off of Austins truck.

[kenergy909]

i'd never buy a new blood shirt! was just a poor mans / shit version of nWo! garbage. This was a poor period of wcw - down the drain!

[2Phaktor]

Let's see...in an organization that has a dearth of true marketable wrestlers, they go and turn the MOST marketable one heel. Not only do they do this, but they make sure that he cannot contend for the title since the title-holder is in his stable. If they were going to do this, they should have done it in a title match AFTER having him be a tweener for a few weeks. It worked for the Road Warriors and they remained marketable. This...was just corny.

[meanmark1]

@WrestlingCrackHead LOLOLOLOLOLO

[HollywoodKendrick]

This looks like some TNA crap.

[cavspunk08]

@HollywoodKendrick Considering both Russo and Bischoff are in TNA I would say that this IS some TNA Crap..at least now it is

[OtakuJdm]

Jarrett had to be my all time least favorite WCW world champ, n then comes Russo, n Arkett (how ever u spell his name) lol

[purgolderpower9]

DISCO INFERNO is greatest of all time should be in wwe hall of fame

[labelyorself589]

the guys in the, ring are cool some were pretty good wrestlers.

[halleberrybabydaddy]

And exactly 10 years later we are the seeing the same exact shit with Jeff Hardy

[Spulpacz]

TNA is random and as meesed up as WCW

[KnockedOutTV]

@Spulpacz Not really...

[Suckmypivot]

@Spulpacz

Oh come on, they aren't THAT bad.

[FreeBirdKai]

to me Russo was both a wrestling genius and wrestling dumb ass.. you gotta admit he did give us a lot of good matches in TNA and WCW, and then some dumb storylines..

[VpY22]

this was WCW at its worst. they tried to recreate the Hulk Hogan TURN to win back fans. WCW was getting their ass kicked by WWE. too bad Goldberg wasnt as big an icon as Hogan and the turn didnt matter much.

[libertycaps666]

lmao i cant believe tna still let russo right for them are they retarded

[Maleknia]

Wow, this is just like Jeff Hardy's heel turn in TNA a month ago. Big star, betrays his allies, and of course, teams with Jarrett, Hogan, and Bischoff.

[voodoochild1981]

@Maleknia That's because it's the same writer, Vince Russo.

[stingman94]

@Maleknia yeah Bischoff is washed up hes no longer that evil genius with unique ideas he tries to out do his old ones he needs to go back to that to give WWE some what of a ratings challenge

[Beyhno10fler]

@Maleknia

Well the difference is, that Goldberg is(was) bigger & better than HArdy will ever be...

[raynemane]

@Maleknia damn lol, and thats the reason i dont watch tna that much.

[megafaded69]

@Maleknia This is more like payback for ending Goldberg's win streak.

[hovado555]

@Maleknia yeah but jeff hardy is asshole, golberg is great, next tna only do same things like wcw which is pathetic and hogan sucks ass same ric flair two old dicks which must be still on wrestling spotlight and screw everything they can

[Aceofspades801]

if you think about it TNA is just like wcw ... why because double j was one of the last faces of wcw excluding the Ace's in the company . and when jeff jarette won the tna title it was basically the continuation of wcw //

[texas3139]

im sick and tired when i see the new assholes wrestlers

i miss eddie goldberg ston cold kane mask the rock rob van dam

[HenchMc]

bronco buster was dat mysterio?

[Windego123]

@HenchMc yep

[largest85]

The kid in the audience said fuck you

[Robohump]

In the weeks leading up to this event, Vince Russo hyped a "major surprise that would change the wrestling world forever". He made it seem like it was the biggest thing that ever happened. There were rumors that Shane McMahon was going to jump to WCW, or that the Rock would jump. Whatever it was, Russo promise dit would be the most amazing thing that ever happened in wrestling. And what did we get? Yet another stupid heel turn. This was the last gasp of breath from WCW before it died. Pathetic.

[jonathanhudgins]

@ The end..."Changed the landscape of sports entertainment." Tony always exaggerated too much.

[Krang2010]

Brought to you by Vince Russo: Killing wrestling companies for almost 20 years.

[pizza316]

this is absolute crap! u gotta be kidding me! no wonder why wcw is dead!

[felony59]

this was right after austin turn heel

[IR305]

@felony59

This was in 2000. Austin turned heel in 2001.

[hovado555]

@felony59 same step like wwe(this time wwf) how pathetic

[guy2008rules]

This is why Russo must leave TNA.

[johnny718bravo]

WCW fans were out of control back then. My goodness.

[SuperMoneyman90]

Ok serious question: Does anybody else in this galaxy we call the Milky way, looks like and defines the word douche more than Vince Russo??

[s366DSMiles]

What does this mean for WCW? It means it's going under.

[TheKogunEnjou]

You know what's hilarious? At this point, it was impossible to tell who was face and heel. Because no one cared.

[RDOG112]

...and there's nothing Vince McMahon can do about it.

[labelyorself589]

this was exciting goldberg turning heel.

[midnightraven1990]

if people hate russo so much how does he keep getting work?

[wirelessjt]

@midnightraven1990 I liked to know that also, guess to many heads or just stupid.

[midnightraven1990]

@wirelessjt yeah your probably right

[wildblur]

@midnightraven1990

In this world, the less talent you have, the more money you make.

[midnightraven1990]

@wildblur i swear i was just watching raw and thinking that

[bmxorretw]

why was rey a bad guy?

[Yuesx]

did anybody notice at 0:19. that its Rey Mysterio unmasked and doing the bronco buster

[5starwrestlingradio]

@Yuesx Yes.This is WCW.You must be too young to remember these days.He unmasked in 99 if I remember correctly after a match with Konnan vs the nWo red and black.He remained unmasked until 2002 when he returned to wrestling with WWE.Look him up dude,he has some amazing matches in WCW,ECW,Japan and Mexico

[Yuesx]

@5starwrestlingradio haha yea well I would be 10 be then but i remembered rey as masked against ultimo dragon on the triple ring match. That was like 98?

[Yesiamblind]

1:46 And what a thurprithe it was Big Gay Al.

[Goukimessatsu2]

Goldberg doesn't even look right being a heel. He's not that diverse.

[5starwrestlingradio]

@Goukimessatsu2 Goldberg could be a monster heel and have been a superior success as a heel had he been booked right.Its all about how they book a guy and how will they use him.Goldberg didnt need to talk to get over.Thats a sign right there he is/was something special

[TheRayvandam]

man rhis is what u call wrestling

[CyrusDeasel]

It was a very anti climactic moment. It did not have the buzz like WCW thought it would, turning Goldberg Heel.

[Ga1actus]

Hated it too. Goldberg hated being a heel too. I have it on My playlist (Who's Next ? ! ! ! 2) about it.

[lilprincekilla]

goldberg and nash always been enemies, what's there 2 expect?

[countbloodula]

I would have to say mexicans are the true niggers not the blacks

[Marty2Hotty]

Such a great moment. Online fans need to chill out. wrestling isn't this greatly booked ever

[lupoistheman1]

Vince Russo is a whore, slut, douchebag, dick, asshole and shithead mixed together. He is the AIDS of pro wrestling and needs to get shot.

[ianhitman]

what a great idea. turn the only star you have left into a heel and turn off the remaining fans you have that only watch the show for him. it couldnt fail ... yawn

[SabinBlitz81]

this was to be the "big announcement" that would shake up the wrestling world that WCW was hyping at the time. And no one gave a damn as fans cheered him on and within a month or so Bill was back as a face after not "following the script" at the New Blood Rising PPV. Russo had a boner for the "worked shoot" angles.

[danlfc1983]

This heel turn was a mistake, they still kept on cheering him.

[Raw000]

Jeff Jarrett in WCW was one of the worst things to ever happen.It all went downhill when that mid carder at best came to that company.

[Bull1908]

Are you surprised he turned heel? mark madden was right; he was young, not a millionaire, not a veteran and a favorite of russo. I mean Nash did end (on screen and off screen) Goldberg's winning streak. Nash took his belt and his streak by booking himself to win the WCW world title at Goldberg's expense.

[ianhitman]

@Bull1908 lol Goldberg was a multi-millionaire by 2000. he was one of the highest paid stars in the business. He was richer than Ric Flair and Lex Luger

[kriegpaolo]

what happened next after this crap segment?

[Matt561]

I forgot how horrible this all was

[stupidkid629]

is that rey mysterio at 0:28? with the overall

[DaveCoopII215]

@stupidkid629 yup thats rey wearing the overalls

[kingrob247]

@stupidkid629 yes it is

[stonecoldnwo]

Russo = WWE PG or Russo < WWE PG or even better?

[higyhagd]

Vince Russo sucks

[brybry19871987]

HAha Eric Bishoff aged like 20 years from 1996- 2000

[kalelg4]

@brybry19871987 That´s because he´s evil.

[ROCKNINJA777]

i don't the name of the idiot that said "surprise, everybody!" but he is the worst commentator in wrestling history

[hovado555]

commentators sucks...

[CarlOlskamp]

I like how the fans throw garbage to the ring, because of the legitimate (=real) anger of the crowd.

[ROCKNINJA777]

@CarlOlskamp legitimate does not equal "real" you idiot, you're just as stupid as vince russo

[CapTashman]

Turning Goldberg heel was one of their WORST ideas

[SebastianSlasherMP]

Who was the idiot ringing the bell after Jarrett pinned Nash?

[OHarold118]

Lol don't you love how Jeff Jarrett was like "I am the chosen one" it wasn't even about him it was about Goldberg lol. And that's just like wrestling fans one minute they are on your side then if you do somethin they don't like in seconds they turn on you

[moose030406]

Where you at NWO? WCW was nothing after they left.

[barbarash]

WCW was on life support here. Turning their biggest face heel in a time when they are losing fans on a weekly basis is NOT a clever idea.

WCW was overbooked junk by this point kinda reminds me of another program currently booked by Russo..

[sanddune]

You guys keep saying this was a dumb idea and that was a dumb idea. It's easy to look back in time and comment on something. If you are in a desperate situation you try everything you can. What would some of jokers have WCW do at this point? Nothing?

[loser71]

This was at a time when WCW made me (for the only time ever) embarrassed to be a wrestling fan. From 1998 to the blessed end in 2001, WCW itself was a complete joke and yawn-fest.

[Regemgadevideos]

Thanks a lot, Vince Russo.

You fucking up wrestling again!

Hogan on the Wolfpac.

You as the WCW Champion.

and now Goldberg as a heel?

What's Next?

[malbecks316]

@Regemgadevideos TNA, obviously:)

[BigRedWrestling94]

@Regemgadevideos

Whats next? The monster Abyss as a hogan clone and AJ styles as a heel.

[gasoline]

@Regemgadevideos I was surprised they let booker T beat Goldberg during this time

[ROosthakid]

@Regemgadevideos Next is the fall of WCW

[Leg3ndKilla687]

@Regemgadevideos tna's downfall

[rmr355]

@Regemgadevideos WCW not existing is whats next

[Rayla840]

@Regemgadevideos Not that I disagree with you on Russo fucking things up. But he had nothing to do with Hogan in the Wolfpac. That was way before he got there.

[tothebeaty0]

@Regemgadevideos NO MORE WCW

[MrSanchezn]

EVERY BODY NOES DA GUY WEARING OVERALLS IS REY

[809Ollie]

lol i bet thats piped in goldberg sucks chant

[JMXXL]

crowd goes mad :D

[Seanmyster]

Goldberg was the Anti-Hero of WCW, when he turned heel, it was like Austin shaking Vinces hand in the WWF.

[buffblockbuster]

@Seanmyster

no it wasnt. this was wcw's way of trying to bring the ratings up which was an epic fail

[jga712]

Some guys have a character just are meant to be either a heel or a face but not both. Goldberg was one of those characters.

[JuiceIsLoose22]

the last 2 years of nitro were a nightmare huh?

[sunnyzsingh]

Rey mysterio



[Eonizzle]

This is almost exactly like Sting's heel turn in March in TNA. The babyfaces are getting their asses handed to them and somebody comes out and helps the heels to continue beating down the babyfaces. It makes absolutely no fucking sense and is 100% unnecessary. I guess it just goes to show you how much of a genius Russo is. *sigh*

[CartoonPoem]

Bischoff didn't like that shit, you can see it in his face.

[cmhero85]

goldberg is a two move wrestler like ultimate warrior. i was as big of fan of warrior and goldberg when i was younger now i appreciate wrestling and ideas like old ecw and roh. that's where talent is much like chikara and pwg. those are organizations and people to watch. not overhyped creations unless its undertaker and hulk hogan

[ssnader]

Its all mexicans and spanish in the ring here. Where are all the americans? THis is why wcw failed.

[JamesAOK]

What a mess WCW was during the end. I mean just look at this clusterfuck. Awful.

[CrazyFavVideos]

Goldberg played football in the pro levels before wrestling

[skariminal]

I remember when it was like - Goldberg vs Austin on monday night wars! epic..

[BadBoy47]

Is it me or was they trying to make Goldberg like Stone Cold Steve Austin,

[campKILLer]

@BadBoy47 Its just you

[krazygreen]

Whose the guy in the Kobe jersey, John Cena? Looks like the WCW version of Cena.

[rescobar1997]

@krazygreen I think it might be Disco Inferno

[MAMAT314]

WHERE IS THE NWO!!ANYONE KNOW

[MrHumerousify]

if i could turn back to 1998,i for one should never hire vince russo and place bischoff to be the booker because he is way better than him,and in 2010 this is what TNA is doing now.vince russo SUCKS!

[KiNgOfThECoRn]

this is when wcw was worse than wwe's version of ecw.... way worse

[krazygreen]

@KiNgOfThECoRn And the ironic thing is, watching in hindsight, this is still 10 times better then any of the crap WWE puts out today.

[KiNgOfThECoRn]

@krazygreen i'd rather see triple h pedigree shaemus 50 times over russo and jerret running around the ring like jackasses

[sabio26]

rey rey!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[LucaToni101]

fuck the new blood

[bxzel0915]

rey mysterio the blue one looks shit right XD thats why he have a masked XD

[magicthetimeless]

Lol, thats what Nash gets for being halve of the reason of goldberg losing his undefeated streak!

[inc2000glw]

seen how he trhew the ref...that was real

[braydongos]

two guys u should never turn heel is goldberg and sting. good job tna for making the show a little more crappy every day

[vanzandt46]

TNA needs PAUL HEYMAN GET RID OF RUSSO OR BRING BACK CORNETTE AS THE BOOKER.ITS SICKENING THAT THEY DO NOT USE THE TERM BOOKER ANYMORE!

[1MrTomebest]

@vanzandt46 yeah, Paul Heyman should go to TNA, and it's very possible that he will. and I wouldn't mind Russo to disapear, but I would cry if cornette came back!

[jamexxxxxx]

@vanzandt46 why bring heyman?you want him to destroy tna too?

[ronocko]

@jamexxxxxx heyman is one of the greatest minds in the business vince russo is a tool who sucks ass.

[jamexxxxxx]

@ronocko i don`t think so tna would be like roh- stupid underground promotion

[ronocko]

@jamexxxxxx RoH is good, and to say russo isnt an idiot you must be completely forgetting david arquette being the world champion among other absolutely horrible ideas.

[jamexxxxxx]

@ronocko but that was very good idea wcw gained very much from david

[ronocko]

@jamexxxxxx no you're joking I cant believe you actually believe that.

[wowDejaVu]

@vanzandt46 Cornette is at ROH I think so he's busy.

[TheViper8119]

@wowDejaVu I guess this was that last time we would see rey mysterio heel

[TheViper8119]

@wowDejaVu what did the commentator say at 4:09 he looks to be there what

[Ghalion99]

was that mysterio in the hat?

[Lordinvdious]

I remember this night well. I didn't like it at all. It would have been better if Goldberg had just went rogue and not joined any group. Wrestling pro or amature is about titles not gang warfare. But since it was written into the script, Goldberg should have remained Goldberg. It did bring back memories though.

[Fizzeewater]

Russo was such a clueless moron.

WCW would have been better off doing the complete OPPOSITE of everything he wanted to do.
