Air Raid VS Jung Dragons

[NOAHDYERULES]

aj styles



[wrestlingjoey]

from the thumbnail it looked like they were wrestling the flying elvises

[v73k1]

Sounds kinda like Limp Bizkit's Pollution.

[M2theEazy]

This match and the moves used in it is way ahead of its time...WCW's cruiserweight division was revolutionary, too bad Vince McMahon still hasn't realized it and keeps pushing guys like Sheamus and John Cena.

[saintbill]

@M2theEazy Not strictly true, Rey Mysterio, Eddie Guerro (cant spell it), Chavo and some others had some pushes

[TheFlashman]

@saintbill Is there even a light heavyweight/cruiser weight title in the WWE anymore? No. That's coz VKM doesn't give a shit about small guys. He's too busy wanking over this - /watch?v=AbsRtuoIDSc

[saintbill]

@TheFlashman What? I dont even remember what I wrote haha

[TheFlashman]

@saintbill Haha fair enough... necro that comment

[1VC4U]

Imagine how awesome the cruiserweight tag division would've been had WCW not got bought out

[darkpatriot85]

AJ either got screwed or just had bad timing when he got to WCW.

[USHARDY]

@darkpatriot85 bad timing

[darkpatriot85]

@USHARDY True. But what a preview of things to come.

[tbglover]

@darkpatriot85 Bad timing.The company was sold to Vince less than a year later.

[darkpatriot85]

@tbglover Don't you mean a few months? I remember this was one of the last Thunder episodes

[tjioxz]

@darkpatriot85 It was THE last Thunder episode. Vince bought WCW 4 days later.

[docpepperclassic]

2:55 Styles Clash, mother fucker!

[1VC4U]

@docpepperclassic  I believe that was the first styles clash

[TheFlashman]

@docpepperclassic Nice spot! ;)

[899Hi]

4:44 fake hit if you look good

[softsXeballchick3]

F@ck!!! damn ninjas won!

[sxtycn]

Man this is classic what great ring presence on both team I miss WCW

[Enigma5469]

Is it just me or does Air Paris have a striking resemblance 2 JC Bailey? IMO.

[ashzackyv]

@Enigma5469 jc bailey is awesome but on youtube i can't find many of his matches

[MikeMargera]

dude three years ago i would not have believed people are still fighting over this it is nice to know that wrestling still sparks debate, does my heart good as a worker

[MB69RatedR]

Proof right here that AJ Styles isn't a TNA Original!

[papertrailTIP]

Believe it or not, but he isn't the only one. Christopher Daniels isn't a TNA Orginal either. Neither is Low-Ki or Samoa Joe.

I think to be an orginal of a company you have to make your debut on one of that companies televised shows.

Daniels I believe jobbed both in WCW and WWF/E before TNA. Same with Low-Ki and Samoa Joe.

[MB69RatedR]

Yeah, but they weren't actually digned with WCW like Air Styles.

[Ransik]

He was on WCW TV less than half a dozen times.

You guys also don't seem to understand what they mean when they say "original".

Gotta love wrestling marks... can't shoot 'em.... and you can't fix stupid.

[MB69RatedR]

If my comment towards AJ makes you so mad that you want to shoot me, you should saty the fuck away from the interent, and god forbid you run into any of my videos where

[MB69RatedR]

cont. Where I rant my ass off.

[RoderickStrong]

you mean WHINE your ass off

[Ransik]

Wow... you really are this dense aren't you? If you can't differentiate between a rephrased saying and what you find to be a threat... I think you need some serious help.

I was making fun of your lack of wrestling knowledge... would you like a graph and a pie chart to explain more?

[MB69RatedR]

Then why imply that you want to shoot me? You see, you're one of those Smarks who can't accept other people's views in wrestling. All you are is just a troll, and telling me that I need help is hilarious! Especially since you're implying that you'd like to shoot me.

[Ransik]

Wow.... you're fucking stupid. Do you not know what a saying is? I was implying as a mark... there's nothing that can be done about your stupidity, which you are continuing to demonstrate. If you want to save face, your best bet is to shut up and put your tail between your legs and walk away. You're making yourself look like a typical WWE fan.

[MB69RatedR]

I never heard of that saying before. Just stop please. YOU'RE the one who makes no sense. I really don't I should continue feeding the autistic troll.

[Ransik]

Either English is not your 1st language... you're yanking my chain... or dumb as a brick. What mountain top do you live on where you've never heard that saying before?

Yes, yes... you speak in broken English & don't even understand it, and I'M the one who makes no sense. I know, I know... you can't understand simple convo and logic.

Seriously man, just give it up. You're not going to put 1 over on a wrestler nor are you going to put 1 over on a guy with a higher IQ than you.

Just stop.

[MB69RatedR]

There's a little thing called a typo. Something an autistic troll wouldn't understand. It would only use that as a way to get out of an argument you can't win. Good day.

[Ransik]

There's also a thing called a "broken record". You've not said anything different in 4 replies. Your answers just get shorter and shorter as I rip you a new one verbally. If you'll excuse me, I'm going to jam an extra long cue-tip in my ear so I can cause some brain damage... so I can understand what fucking planet you're getting your logic from.

[TheFlashman]

@Ransik I hear by award you the 'douche bag of the internetz' award 2010

[Ransik]

@TheFlashman Too bad. Life's tough, get with it or get the fuck out of it. No one should have time to spare for idiots, trolls, and losers.

[TheFlashman]

@Ransik Trolololololol.... no one has ever been more deserving than you Sir!

[tboysmashing]

@MB69RatedR this was before tna you dummas , so hogan isnt THE face of the WWE , since he started in the AWA

[TeamExtremeMember8]

I love that name.Air Raid.

[frankerton]

did anyone ever think Air Styles would be the franchise of TNA?

[gamerchris07]

hahaha hey its paris. awsome guy, i know him

[zzenexx]

this is excellent. you dont even get wrestling this quality for PPV's anymore.

[Xtremebyrd2k6]

this was the first time i saw aj styles

[whoo689]

AJ Styles in WCW. Who woulda thunk? I had assumed ROH was his first major stint, and then he went to TNA.

[zeppelin462]

"Who woulda thunk" is part of a saying. Good job though smart ass.

[RoderickStrong]

Actually, it was NWA Wildside

[GilbertsV1]

People bash a lot WCW, but that federation put a lot of airtime on new wrestlers, low-cards, midcarders... that's what I truly miss, and they were even on PPV at least once every 2 months, it's thoses kind of matches I miss a lot !

[OriginalLawnmower]

This match happened less than a week before WCW went out of business.

[JonMonkeyFace04]

That's true. This happened exactly 5 days prior to the "WWF buy WCW" episode of Nitro.

[TheShootingStarPress]

2:57 Kaz owns the Style's Clash

[Krazyness]

JUNG DRAGONS NIGGA!

[therageravenlee]

hey jimmy wang yang, i know him.

[RareTitantronz]

can any one tell me whats Air Raid entrance song?Or ho has the MP3 file of it.

I really wish AND THX alot if anyone gives it to me.

[DubyaDubyaE]

It's Primer 55 - Loose

[casheee]

who ever wants Air raids theme I have it on mp3 format

[RareTitantronz]

I DOOOO!!!!!!!

[RareTitantronz]

i DOO!!!

[Drjkl924]

Aj in a G-Suit lol

[RaverNekoBoi]

WWE can't compare to what WCW was, also Yang should have held onto the arm, aned neck, and droped down into an arm/neck breaker

[bertvg]

What a very entertaining match! The finish was a bit off, but this is what the WCW Cruiserweight division was all about; a fast-paced, technical, high-flying style. Thanks a lot for uploading this vid, I really miss those good ol' days.

[caijem]

What ever happened to Jimmy Wang Yang anyways? I haven't seen him on Smackdown in a long time.

[howehattrick]

i miss air paris!

[heatseaker22]

hes on the georgia indy circut now, hes fat, and dont have his heart in it anymore

[nibletxxx]

i wrestled air paris last saturday.hes not what he use to be but we had a good match...

[casheee]

AJ Styles is a TNA original indies or WWE Try-OUT matches don't COUNT

[AMF4]

who's arguing that?

[casheee]

U R right now

[AMF4]

what am I arguin about?

[Sabin56]

AJ Styles is a nobody just like all those other TNA losers. WWE RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AMF4]

if they rule why they got to steal TNA stunts and use moves from video games that wrestler's never used before. Tell me why CM Punk has to be a KENTA rip off, why is Cryme Tyme a All Money is Legal carbon copy, tell me why the divas can't wrestle and the ones who can lose to those piece crap center folds that are only worth the paper they're printed on? why wwe got to pull big name stars like 50 cent and Snoop to get people to buy into their shit? I don't know maybe cuz they're just that...SHIT

[random1nigga]

the last wcw thunder, and the last wcw indoor event.

[esboy05]

anyone knows the entrance theme song of AIR RAID?

[jssomera]

YES

[WWETNAfan]

A.J. Styles was in Air Raid.

[Suriel1981]

Vincent Kunt McMahon treats cruiserweights like shit. And why? Because they don't take steroids? Because the Old Boys Network are afraid they'll "steal their heat"?

Fuck u Vince, fuck u HHH, fuck u Stephanie, fuck u Kevin Dunn, fuck u John Laurinaitis, fuck u Brian Gewirtz, fuck u Dave Lagana, fuck u Double A, fuck you Fit Finley, fuck u Ric Flair, fuck u JBL and fuck all you WWE corporate motherfuckers who force-feed steroid-pumped shit down people's throats and pretend it's entertainment.

[seb2112]

WHats up with the camera cutting to the crowd during the move air raid did with AJ on the third turnbuckle?

[AGWWrestling]

they botched it badly

[CraigRAW]

This match is really fun. :D

[WCWTV]

yea they stole him hell styles was only there a month or two slapnuts

[Randy81]

I hate it when companies steal wrestlers. Think about it, they have to hide, get a bag big enough to hold them in (with air holes!) get the wrestler in it (try it on your significant other tonite) drive away WITHOUT being caught! HOW are they stealing wrestlers? Companies don't steal, they offer a spot and compensation for a service, the wrestler has the opportunity to accept or decline. You'd have a better argument of whether or not a wrestler sold out then you would over the stealing theory.

[daneep01]

more evidence of ow tna can't build dere own stars and so steal stars frm another promotion, i mean chris daniels he was in wwf aj in wcw, u got jow frm RoH, deres loads and kurt angle frm wwe deres a whole list full of dem tna can never do wot wcw, ecw, wwfe cud and dat is build dere own stars.

[thefreak985]

Dummy, Aj's star was built in TNA, so I guess Triple H in Stone Cold were built in wCw since they started there, OMG did you here of Christopher and Aj in wwf and wcw or wwe, or did you know there names in tna

[daneep01]

luk dumbass stone cold was well known in wcw and dat b4 cumin to wwe, chris daniels alright he werent dat much known in wwe but was in wcw a bit and aj, i hav to agree wit u dat u did build aj and daniels but u guys still steal wrestlers i mean cum on name more wrestlers dat u built up in tna, and i can name a load of wrestlers dat u guys have stollen.

[casheee]

AJ and daniels have NEVER worked for WWF/E jobber matches or dark matches dont count they weren't legitally on the WWF/E roster

[daneep01]

well i dunno about aj but i do know that daniels did in fact have some matches in wwe and if you don't believe me deres videos of him in wwf on this site.

[casheee]

If you don't know why do you print a load of garbage ? like i was saying those videos are DARK matches where he jobbed to established WWE stars as an unknown JOBBER there are videos of sting,norman smiley,disco inferno etc. but it does not mean they were in the WWF/E

[daneep01]

daniels yea he may have had dark matches, but he also had normal matcheson raw and on heat so that does mean that he was in the wwf for a shor amount of tym then he went to wcw i fink.

[casheee]

yeah somethin like that he was definately in WCW

[MikeMargera]

AJ styles did a match with Hurricane for the WWE, testing out the atmosphere to see how he'd like it

[casheee]

you might wanna take off your WCW or even WWF/E tags coz if WWE find out your video will be removed and you'll be banned from youtube!

[casheee]

AJ styles's first styles clash where the hell is Air Paris ?

[SoldatCrinale]

i cant beleive AJ styles got his start here...0_0

[CraigRAW]

Technically, he got his VERY first start in NWA Wildside (which was known as NCW National Championship Wrestling at the time). Too bad NWA Wildside is no more.

[Rawisbetter]

You want matches. AJ vs Daniels Vs Joe at unbreakable. AJ Vs Alex shelly from Impact 05. AJ VS Jimmy Rave in CZW. Aj Styles vs El Generico vs Crazy Crusher in EWR. This tag match!

[ArmandECW666]

No I'm saying when he does his high-flying stuff it seems he doesn't do it for the true art of the sport, just seems he does it to show off, but i'll give'm sum credit, he's better in RoH/Japan then he is in TNA

[ArmandECW666]

As for techincal wrestling, that's what makes it more of an art/sport more then anything, so course I apretiate the techntions in the history of the sport & today's..hell I watch RoH & NOAH more then anything..plus if you want, take a look @ the RoH, NOAH, & some tna stuff I uploaded onto youtube (even an AJ match or 2)

[Rawisbetter]

And what about his technical skills like Kurt angle and chris benoit? Are you saying that ain't wrestling? What about his high-flying skills like rey mysterio or juventud?

[Rawisbetter]

You're calling him a spotmonkey because he does shooting stars, corkscrew moonsaults, 450's, high suicide dives, styles clashes off of balconies, double moonsaults, and backwards fankensteiners? Whatever.

[Rawisbetter]

Why don't you tell me why AJ can't wrestle. Seems to me that you're a hypocrite for saying that about him when you just gave me a list of other great wrestlers.

[ArmandECW666]

AJ just looks like a spot monkey or does his moves just for show instead of the art that is wrestling, & from how much I watched over the years of ROH, Japan, TNA, etc...AJ's really only had 2 good matches..1.AJ Vs Low Ki in Zero-One..2.AJ Vs Jerry Lynn in RoH (2002)or possibly I haven't seen the right matches cause since 2002 to now can't wrestle, unless you can point out some good wrestling matches from him

[MikeMargera]

WCW went down the drain because of bad booking, McMahon bought it for its talent that he wanted when it finally went under, ECW = Dead BUT New Ecw= Gay, you cant franchise hardcore wrestling, it just doesnt look right

[ArmandECW666]

Good lil match, seems Jimmy Yang (Akio) & Kaz Hayashi are overly under-rated no matter whare they go, & Kaz is awesome in Japan now

[ArmandECW666]

PS: AJ still sux & is over-rated:P

[MikeMargera]

I agree, i worked with Air Paris in Trion, Georgia about five months ago, and Paris is doing a lot of different stuff, as opposed to AJ who still does the same stuff

[ArmandECW666]

Plus AJ can't wrestle anyway (has seen his ROH/Japan stuff) & he has no psychology what so-ever, even see his match in 03 with P. London, it looks like AJ forgot what leg is he suppost to play-out @ 1 point in the match

[Rawisbetter]

Did you just say that AJ can't wrestle? What kind of a fukin idiot are you? You must be one of those storyteller fans who gets bored if a wrestler doesn't have some stupid gimmic like the Boogeyman or CrymeTyme. I bet you love Batista and Hulk Hogan. You know what don't go around telling people they can't wrestle when you don't know sh1t about it. Oh no, AJ didn't storytell his "injured" leg well enough. Boo hoo.

[ArmandECW666]

Lol takeing it personal much, he can't wrestle, I've seen'em in RoH, Japan, & TNA..too repetative everywhare he goes..& sorry to dissapoint you but I do watch for the art/wrestling, plus there's better wrestlers out there like Alex Shelley, Low Ki, Bryan Danielson, Mitsuharu Misawa, Ultimo Dragon all of example..so don't go takeing it personaly when I'm not attacking you, we're all entitled to our opinions dip-shit

[Rawisbetter]

Strange how you responded to my reply within 5 minutes. What kind of a loser are you. And why don't you tell me why you think AJ can't wrestle?

[Fdatubeofyou]

@MikeMargera If its not broken why fix it?

[sivazh]

The WCW Cruisers kicked so much ass. The X Div in TNA is not the same.

[governmentcheese61]

This match kicks ass, too bad Jimmy Wangs being embarassed by WWE.

[hack0tv]

1. Even in its dying days, WCW had better matches than the current WWE.

2. Mike Tenay was a good announcer.

3. Tony Schiavone at his worst was better than the current Don West/Mike Tenay.

4. WEHT Air Paris?

5. The members of The Jung Dragons were tons better in WCW than Jamie Noble and Jimmy Wang Yang are allowed to be in the current WWE.

[hack0tv]

6. Hopefully when TNA gets a second hour for impact they'll start having more matches of this length.

7. When I originally saw this match on WCW, it was the worst AJ Styles match I had ever seen (having watched him excel in NWA Wildside).

8. I miss Kaz Hayashi.

9. Kaz easily kicks out after the Styles Clash(!)

10. Matches are so much more enjoyable without the "switch camera angles every 2 seconds" that WWE does.

[hack0tv]

11. I assume the crowd shot inserted near the end was to cover up a botched spot in the corner.

[Crowster12781]

Yeah, prolly.

[sivazh]

Was this the final WCW Thunder???

[GForceTG]

MAn, I miss WcW. Great pre-TNA AJ Styles though.
