WCW Fall Brawl: WarGames 1998 Part 1

[Donniedog777]

The horror of war!

[batista6242]

Amazing match!!!!

[mjlambert1]

Bobby Heenan - best color commentator ever!

[xhemexx]

If Sting was going to face Goldberg the following night for the title, you would think why would Sting even be in this match, if he had a title shot anyways the following night? Sting didn't have to try even, just wait for the following night! That kind of gave it away that Sting was not going to win this, because the fans knew Sting would face Goldberg the next night.

[RockyRalroa]

Yeah man. honestly, I wish they would rerelease the VHS's again. I bet they are sitting on thousands of tapes that have never been opened, and dont know what to do with them. especially the WCW PPV's. You ever see the prices of WCW VHS on ebay, its fuckin ridiculous.

[wizeguy26]

these will never become available on dvd if they do ill b suprised. my buddy had this on vhs man we watched it alot..he had alot of these old wcw tapes

[RockyRalroa]

@wizeguy26 WWF and WCW VHS FOREVER!!!! Nothing is better than those old tapes

[wizeguy26]

@RockyRalroa amen brother thats y i have a feeling if they ever get released vince will be dead or most of the wrestlers on these ppvs man ..it sucks how sometime he can be an ass

[AmphibiousReconMSOB]

TNA genesis?LoL

[crazywrestlingtube]

slap jack sucka!

[summerpresley1]

Does anyone know if on you tube there is the bulldog and anvil match from fall brawl where bulldog gets injured

[XxXRTWXxX]

I was searching a game named WarGames on Google, it's release on year 1998 by WestWood. And why the hell this come out ?!

[xaer0knight]

this double cage match was a precursor to some of the CZW cage of death matches. totally forgot WCW used it first :)

[creatureofthenight1]

imo Bret Hart is the greatest legend of the 90s, slightly over other legends like HBK, Hogan, Austin, and whoever else. They are all huge legends but only Hart really dominated the 90s from start to finish. DDP and Ray? Not bad but a far cry from the Excellence of Execution.

[IcedFoxx]

1987 war games was the best !

[ToxsickDeath]

so tna's lethal lockdowns the same except with one ring and a cage with another colour with weapons in it........it makes sence.....some how..

[Animation420]

Was never really a WCW fan but WarGames ia the best gimmick match of all time.

[lastman4u]

They should have believed sting

[wsp60]

just watched some wcw from 00 and 01 and man was it shit this is the wcw i loved

[dxsmackdown8]

bischoff ruined wcw

[hbk2hhh]

@dxsmackdown8 no he didnt he made wcw russo and no cable deal ruined it

[THECHAMPISSTILLHERE]

@dxsmackdown8 no Russo ruined wcw, bishhoff made the company what it once was.

[mainsqueeze1977]

What's wrong with this sentence?

"It's every man for himself as Team WCW, Team nWo Hollywood & Team nWo Wolfpac face off in the WarGames"

[KingGemini87]

@mainsqueeze1977 watch the whole match and you'll understand.

[mainsqueeze1977]

@KingGemini87

Wargames is a match for teams, not for "everyman for himself" - I don't have to watch the whole match to know that.

[KingGemini87]

@mainsqueeze1977 then you didnt watch the whole match. despite it being teams, it was still every man for himself. like i said before, watch the match.

[mainsqueeze1977]

@KingGemini87

That would entail watching Hogan an Goldberg - no thanks!!!

[McMahonHater]

@KingGemini87 It was a bad idea, but then by this time WCW had allot of bad ideas. Putting the world title on David Arquetti (if thats how it's spelled) the handling of the demon, the miss use of Bret Hart, just about the only thing they did well near the end was the fued between Sting and Vanpiro.

[1981bigdee]

@KingGemini87 ok the original statement still stands. If its every man for himself how can there be teams? if there are teams how can it be every man for himself? Its a complete cantradiction.

Bullshit like this is why wcw is no more.

[whycantihavemyownuse]

@1981bigdee lol somebody got it wrong

[cabrito550]

@mainsqueeze1977 In 1998 they had other rules for the wargames than the years before.

[Broncojosh88]

@mainsqueeze1977 lmao

Team WCW wasn't a team, it was wrestlers representing WCW in war games, that were fighting for themselves, for a title shot at Havoc. Team was used as a very loose term

[mainsqueeze1977]

@Broncojosh88

Why "lmao"? WCW messed up one of their more exciting ideas with this one.

BTW, the issue has been settled for 9 months!

[creatureofthenight1]

@mainsqueeze1977 i get what they are trying to say but i totally agree, it was a big fail on WCW's part, trying to incorporate both teams & the championship. this is definitely one of the lamer Wargames imo.

[hahaureadmyname]

i got all of thwe wcw superstar series vhs tapes

[freewilliam93]

@hahaureadmyname how much were they if you bought them now? or did you buy them years ago?

[hahaureadmyname]

@freewilliam93 i got them 7 years ago but they are still in good shape the most i paid was $12.00

[chaysemaster12]

ahh lucky

[pharrismoore]

this wrestling they got today doesn t  compare to what it was back in the 80 s &90 s.

[SARDISLEGEND]

i got " The Best of The War Games" on VHS

[KingGemini87]

Get outta here

[Vindikator]

@KingGemini87 I remember a while ago I had the Best of War Games, the Best of Halloween Havoc, then 1999 Slamboree and Road Wild.

[KingGemini87]

@Vindikator do you still have them?

[Vindikator]

@KingGemini87 yea.. actually I do.. ahha.. I juss found them the other day.. lol

[COMP3LLED2KILL]

All those WCW VHS Tapes are very rare:)

[AllHailHelms]

Thats what I was thinking!

[PhockUTube]

Eight of the biggest names in wrestling: Hogan, Hart, Sting, Luger, Nash, Piper, Page, Warrior

...and then you have Stevie Ray.

[mainsqueeze1977]

@PhockUTube

Yes, Warrior has no business being in

the same ring as Stevie Ray.

[Americalovesme2008]

WCW was ok back then, shame it isnt around today, then we had 3 choices of wrestling, now we are starting to finally have 2 choices of wrestling.

[BruiserDrop]

@ Americalovesme2008

yeah TNA and ROH

[joejoe1758]

I saw this Live!!

[tidykris]

bret never looked happy in wcw

[crazywrestlingtube]

@tidykris

I think he didn't get along with Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan

[MonkeYYboii07]

kinda sucks that when this happened they didnt have camera men inside like hell in a cell these days

[funkysnoogans]

The difference is that there is actually room for camera men in Hell in the Cell, as the cell covers the entire ringside area around the ring. This cage just covered the rings, so there isnt any room for camera guys without getting the way of the wrestlers.

[AP93906]

first of all mcmahon dont feed no body steroids it aint like he puts a gun to there head and tells them take/inject them or ill kill you its there choice..

[CreepingDeath1987]

the problem with that is although vince doesnt make them take steroids, everybody knows that vince likes the big muscley type wrestlers, which in turn makes the wrestlers use steroids so they will be noticed by vince and his scouts

[1981bigdee]

yeah thats right. I mean look at CM Punk. Hes obviously roided up, isn't he?

[bigfoolit93]

mcmahon pushed cm punk to get everyone off his back about only pushing roided up superstars

[rober2124]

Tenay was here in WCW prior to go to TNA. thats why.. him McMichael and Heenan as well as Larry zybysko

[Gateway0807]

u mean the other way around its weird to here him on TNA he wa son WCW first u newb lol

[LordValor001]

see thats the prob of having someone like Goldberg who always wins it makes this match worthless casue you know Goldberg will win...thats why WWE sucks today.

[CoreyDirger]

I agree but the bigger problem is ahving guys who cant wrestle great matches or even good matches. And to often it comes down to a 8 minute contest that is decided by drama and not a great match.

[LordValor001]

yea really tell me about it and wtf why can a match not freaking finish?!! Cena vs Jericho was awesome and i had a feeling Jericho may pull it off but Edge interfered!? and sometimes they DQ a match that makes no sense like DQ a 3 way casue interfernce and dont get me started on the whole Elimination Chamber Rope Break from the Tombestone that screwed Undertaker o..m...g

[AllHailHelms]

Yeah, because you ALWAYS KNOW John Cena will win.

[NoRulesInNam]

I always liked War Games.

[partytime0]

these matches cost alot of money and i do love this match but its probley one of the reasons wcw went down

[nWo24life]

With all the legends and talent in this ring...this match should have been one of the greatest of all-time. I would love to have seen this line-up in a Hell In The Cell WWF Match. Why they put Stevie Ray on nWo Hollywood instead of Scott Hall is beyond me. Hogan/Hall/Hart V.S. Nash/Luger/Sting V.S. Warrior/Page/Piper. That's a classic match that, with this booking, became horrible and almost unwatchable.

[John3nigma]

Not as good as 1996 War Games, I agree with everyone about Vince turning most of the WCW wrestlers into jobbers when they got there for that Invasion storyline. I also want to say that Bret Hart is one of the greatest technical wrestlers ever. Screw Hogan's for not wanting to pass the torch years ago.

[luvizlyfe15]

Thank u soooooooooo much for saying this. Hitman 4 Life!!!!!!

[CoryStuteville]

Why doesn't this match have the match beyond, submit or surrender? WWE should do a 5 against 5 War Games match at Survivor Series. Bring it back one time only instead of using the Elimination Chamber once.

[BruceQ5]

They needed to give bret hart some decent bloody music, he had about ten themes in wcw and i cant remember any of them.

[ravelicious]

he only had 2

[Dahue1983]

WCW pushed Bret Hart real fast while he was in WCW if you look at the time line he was U.S champ, and World champ within a 1yr and a half, also was bret ever WCW tag champ with anyone? i cant really remember..

[ravelicious]

DDP was not the figurehead of WCW. Well he was but not as big as others. And I am one of the biggest Page marks youll find.DDP got his main shot during 97 and 98.After that,he had a couple of runs until the end of the company both as heel and face.But if you have to consider a figurehead,it would be sting,hogan,goldberg,and flair.Even if Goldberg came after Page.

[WWERKO1994]

this looks fun i want to be in this match i will get killed in this match

[AtomicDogStudios]

When DDP joined the WWF, it was nothing but a huge joke.

[rhyno198]

yea page deserved much better then he got but so did so many wcw wrestlers

[Dahue1983]

you are right...there is a youtube video where sting actually talks and even says that is why he did not go to wwe because he felt they were doing nothing but burying former wcw wrestlers and he said that Booker T was one of the guys who was getting dogged out...

[hisairness50]

i never understoodn what wcw was about but at one time theybhad more viewers than wwe

[ravelicious]

It was about pikcing up where the WWE left at some point, and make it what the WWE was leaving behind. Familly entertainment.Until Russo came aboard(I dont blame him for the demise of wcw as many do as he had to struggle with injuries and he wasnt even there when the company folded) you never heard a slure on live tv.Yet WCW was the best company from 95 to 98. Even from 99 to 2001 youll find good stuff.

[miroa12004]

DDP was so cool,going to the ring through the fans,I really missed him.

[ghostryder0079]

I agree Bret hated being WCW.

[LIMERICKPADDY]

bret looks very misrible

[rhapsodybaby21]

i cant argue with you on that, bret does look miserable...poor bret

[cartmanj24]

At 6:18, Bret Hart does probably the best back breaker i have ever seen.

[hulksterdude26]

I miss DDP

[CrazyHorse316]

Hey dumb ass.

Do you even WATCH pro wrestling?

holy shit.

[rhapsodybaby21]

that theme where DDP came out on, it scared the shit out of me... DDP was a great wrestler in WCW back in the day, though. [before Vince came and fucked WCW over and i know im right about it]. Anyone agree with me?

[hbnr]

I do!

[gangstaOGgangsta]

fuckin oath. remember when DDP made his WWE debut when he took off that mask? ive never heard the crowd pop so loud. then he was just buried in every match he had with the Undertaker. Fuck Vince's ego seriously

[ravelicious]

Yeap, he had the audacity to turn a Stone Cold type figure into a moron.

[ViewAskewFilms]

fck now i realise who stone cold reminds me of damn that's buzzy

[Dahue1983]

Yeah WWE killed pages's credibility...Vince Mcmahon is fucked up...he actually had a great money maker between DDP and Taker but he turned DDP into a Jobber when it came to the dead man and thats real sad a waste of extremely good talent

[elyeagels32]

Yeah but WCW misused alot of people Eddie Guerrerro is one of them people look at what he became and chris bonoit that why they left and went to WWE/WWF

[ravelicious]

yeah? now i tell you that eddie, and benoit were being used properly in 99-2000 in wcw, they left when they were finally achieving their goal, because of kevin sullivan taking charge of wcw's booking

[elyeagels32]

Eddie hated WCW, he constantly goes on in his book about how bad it was compared to WWE. And eddie was used better in WWE look at what he became their

[Gateway0807]

yeah and look what happened to eddie he got death from mchmannon feeding roids to all the superstars lol

[1981bigdee]

youre an idiot.

[1981bigdee]

You're still an idiot.

[MrAndrewGCGibson]

i agree mate, i really do.

thank you for saying it.

it needed to be said.

[Diimus]

UHHHHH WCW went to crap b/c time warner merged with AOL, who had no interest in keeping it going and didnt let eric bishoff have the money and freedom like he did before. ITS AOL's FAULT CHECK IT OUT!!!!!

[pinknblackattack]

How stupid. And wasteful. It was a fuckin goldmine and they just let it die. Tragic really.

[Diimus]

Yes, you can ovbiously tell it was corporate mindset...they dont give a shit about what people want. I miss it and would prolly still watch wrestling if WCW was still around. WWE is one sided.

[CapitalRattler]

You think WCW's collapse was due to corporate interference? Not due to backstage politics? If you say so.

[cpossberg]

WCW lost close to $60 million before AOL ever had it...Check your facts next time!

[Diimus]

Even Kevin Nash and Scott Hall made mentions of AOL and unlike me and you, as you know, ACTUALLY worked there so.....w/e its over anyways. Wish it was still around..

[cpossberg]

I think the AOL deal was the final nail, as they specifically 'pulled the plug' on WCW...From what I understand (and you're right, I never worked there), Jamie Kellner looked at what WCW had already lost and decided to yank it...

Backstage politics may have led to an unwatchable program that caused fans to leave in droves & TV rates dropped from where they were, but ultimately the 'board room' decided to kill off WCW.

[Diimus]

I couldnt agree more. Thats what sucks, i used to watch this when i was younger, now i cant stand wrestling. Nothing the WWE or TNA could ever top the 90's for professional wrestling. I can watch these vids all day though, brings me back.

[cpossberg]

That's right, it's never been the same since...It's too obvious that the wrestlers all end up looking/acting/working too similar. Nobody stands out b/c they're all being taught the EXACT SAME WAY. No one has much of an identity anymore...Anywhoo, that's by rant: I enjoy these vids as well, you're right, it's a good trip!!

[gabynum1919]

Diimus and cpossberg, I am in whole-hearted agreement with both of you

[Hazelhood07]

WCW was the best..

[rhapsodybaby21]

yep it sure was, Hazelhood07

[guitarkidhero]

i want war games to come back!

looks like two hell in a cells

[JakeKram]

the closest thing to war games is freaking TNA Lockdown Match other words you'll never get this again

[darkpatriot85]

I would have had nWo Wolfpac against nWo Hollywood in the traditional WarGames match. Maybe then WCW wouldn't have gone to crap.

[kingzboi75]

the good ol days

[kilikblackrose]

Damn dude its been ages...I was there at winston Salem in 1998!!!

[Yoshifire98]

Cool match type... but crappy video
