This guy has the fucking ego of a legend and is laughable...he's a fucking joke. All he's ever done for wrestling is break guitars...think about it...the dude fucking breaks guitars....THAT'S IT...
Jeff Jarrett. Midcarder 4 life. The problem at Bash at the Beach? I know Hogan is known for not wanting to do jobs, but this time, no world champion should have lost to Jeff Jarrett. It would be like Razor losing to the Kid but with the title on the line.
WCW , let too many "special" people have "special" positions in their company. Thus, the company had too much infighting. Vince almost faced the same problem with the "kliq" in WWF, which called shots and set their own matches. On any job people can become chummy with the boss and hurt not only employee moral but the company overall. This has happened in sports quite often such as the Astros and Clemens. But, overall WCW had many more problems than this just too many to overcome. Sad !
@Jonfab88 Ok HHH carried Hulk Hogan to amazing matches, same with fuckin Batista back when he started....HHH can make anyone look good....so quit being a hater bro.
Yeah Russo wanted his brain child Jarrett to win but his ideas sucked and jarrett wasn't drawing money as champ and fans were losing interest. Hogan thought making himself champ would bring some fans back and give the company time to sort things out. Hogans contract had a clause saying he can do whatever the christ he liked and change bookings but russo was head booker so Jarret did the only thing he could to not get fired which was lose to Hogan but the way russo told him. Fucked up everything.
He's right you can't blame 1 individual. Jarret would've got fired if he didn't do what Russo asked. Hogan can't be blamed either the fans hadn't gotten anything they wanted for a few months back then and arena's were not being filled, they wanted hogan to win and he knew that. Vince russo just didn't want to be proved wrong and therefore he can't be blamed either it would have killed his status. Who won in the end? Vince Mcmahon.
@me31669 hold up from what i understand Russo wanted Jeff to win and stay champ but Hogan had in his WCW contract where he had creative control and controlled his matches causing Hogan wanting win the title or am i mislead with the information i read ??
@RKO074Life P.s It fucked up everything cause Hogan and Russo are both people who in their own minds can't be wrong so when they both fucked up big time Hogan pissed off with the real belt and his millions of dollars and Russo was left to straighten out a pile of shit company without its crown jewel (Hogan) that nobody realistically could have saved; a case of the proverbial too many chiefs and not enough indians.
A lot of people paid hard earned money to watch a good Hogan-Jarrett match that night and got screwed, Hogan was professional enough to put on the show for the people, but Jarrett brought the office into the ring that night
King Of The Mountain? What? Brokeback Mountain? This guy was shit and was not even close to what he thought he was and sure as hell not World Champ material. Guy is as lame as R-Truth and MIZ.
"You cain't point your fanger at one individual..."!?!? I've always suspected Jarrett might be a little slow, but that one statement confirms it!! Could this guy suck Russo's dick any more??
WCW was ideal for the wrestlers with no talent. Jarrett, russo, nash had more to do with destroying that company than anyone. They all have no talent and are over rated. TNA is going no where because of russo and jarrett.
The problem for Jarrett is that he'd been wrestling for years in WCW and WWF before going back towards the end and had never won a World Title. He'd been an IC champion, but that was largely because of the whole Debra angle. WCW took a guy who McMahon recognized as a midcard lifer and tried to make him a champion. Other than Booker and Goldberg, it was always the same guys - Hogan, Flair, Sting. No new talent ever got pushed. Meanwhile, WWF was taking off with younger guys.
@surfer53 That's so true, you really have to wonder why wcw paid so much to bring Jarrett over and make him a champion instead of pushing the likes of Chris Jerico, Beniot and Eddie instead.
@surfer53 Not true, from what I've heard Russo and Vince wanted to make Jeff Jarrett the WWF Champion but Austin didn't want to put over Jarrett because he felt it would bury himself to lose to Jarrett. I think that's why Jarrett always says that he got the money "he deserved" when he blackmailed Vince to no-show at No Mercy 1999.
I always thought Jeff Jarrett was underrated. I was glad to see him win the WCW Championship since WWF wouldn't give him a chance when he was finally getting over in the late 90s due to his character being revamped with a serious attitude and look.
I'm just wondering why that match between Jarrett and Hogan was in the middle of a show during a time when all (at least in PPVs) World Heavyweight Championship matches finish the show or at least are 2nd to last.
I just love how they have Booker T's name and TNA superstar on the screen as he is about to talk.Anyone who buys this piece of shit dvd should know who that lazy asshole is.But then again TNA thinks their fan base are a bunch idiots for watching the product anyways so they probably don't know who Booker T is.Jeff Jarrett makes bubba the love sponge look like a wrestling legend,Jarrett really is that bad.And TNA is garbage with the exception of AJ and The Knockouts.
@daonlytamjr ever since he went to the wwf and then especially when he went to tna.Booker T sucks shit,he used to be awesome and now he just sucks cock.
He definetely doesnt deserve what he got, I equate his tna title run king of the mountain bullshit to hhhs wwe reigns of terror, definete backstage politics and jerk offs who want to stroke their own egos because when wrestling was at its absolute peak (97-98) they were midcarders. Way to devalue the belts jerk offs, and in jarretts case, slapnuts.
@sleazyfellow Wrestling was at his absolute peak in 99 and 00 check the ratings, also the time when HHH was on top, by the way the DX was already running big time in 98.
Aren't you idiots sick of talking about who killed WCW and what TNA needs to do to beat WWE and droning on and on about how cool it was back in the late 90's with Austin and Rock and how you all wish AJ and Joe would get more of a push and all this other crap?Believe me I was there once too and when it really comes down to it,WWE and TNA do not care about what the fans think they only care about what amuses them and how they can rip off the fans for more money.Just find something else to do.
The thing about Jeff Jarrett is that he is simply not over with fans. I can't imagine many people wanting to by a ticket to see a card with him in the main event.
Fuck JJ..he is a spineless mutt..he comes out on tv crying over his wifes death but gets with kurts wife..this bitch deserves no respect he is not a man you don't do that kind of shit..
@CactusJack1127 There were a lot of ppl to blame in case you haven't heard the shoot comments from former WCW talent. Even Flair said that no one knew what was going to happen (booking) cause "this guy changed this and that guy changed that ten minutes later". Keep in mind the talent had creative control of their character, so if they don't see it fit for them they won't perform. Try to book while pleasing the top talent and having young talent establish a run, someones gotta lose.
You dammed right this incident was a complete disaster. But you CAN point the finger; namely Jeff Jarret and Vince Russo. I respect was Jerret's done with TnA, but putting him in the limelight did not help WcW in any way whatsoever.
Someone has a problem admitting that they royally kissed the ass of that PIECE OF SHIT Vince Russo to get ahead, hence why he wont admit the fact that Vince Russo is a piece of shit who knows NOTHING about Wrestling and has no business being in it
@jfuya2000 actually Attitude Era was doing poorly until vince russo was kindly removed i.e loosing to WCW 32 weeks in a row when vince russo was removed it began to flurish so I say Fire vince russo
the attitude era is recorded as winning just about every monday night war from it's inception all the way through russo's tenure, which means it wasn't doing poorly (reference below)
@jfuya2000 WWF only began to win every week during 1999 - and in fact they did tonnes better AFTER Russo went to WCW. Russo gets a lot of credit for being creative enough to think of great ideas but them consistently messes them up after the initial buzz...
but they won every week for a full year before russo left in late 99. u do not attribute this feat to russo, but sum1 or sumthing else? please let me know =)
@jfuya2000 I'd argue that Russo was a small cog in a big machine and that the genius of Vince McMahon and the talent of Stone Cold were what propelled WWF to such heights...also WCW was putting on such a poor product that viewers flocked over to WWF television...
For example the Nitro on 04/01/99 probably lost WCW more viewers than anything WWF had done in the last year due to it being so bad, NOT because Russo was writing the competing show...
@ahmad3652 Russo left WWF in late 1999 but by then WWF had been beating WCW in the ratings most of the time for more than a year - it's wrong to say that the attitude era was doing poorly - it was the biggest boom in professional wrestling history!
@jfuya2000 Yes the attitude era was Russo's idea when Mcmahon wanted to do the same childish gimmicks during the nWo era. He did create a big draw in the industry now mcmahon has "hollywood" writers. I also believe WCW was done because the plug was pulled by Time Warner merger w/ AOL, and before Bischoff could purchase WCW mcmahon bought it. Even the Titantron was Russo's idea which to this day is used to show the backstage stuff to audience. My how ppl forget.
Jeff Jarrett is one of the best wrestlers out there that is willing to put over a young talent to get him started. He that for Booker T in 2000. Just unfortunately WCW started pushing the younger takent too late
@1987cubsfan Are you saying that Jeff Jarrett put over the younger talent by putting over Booker T in WCW back in 2000 ? Booker T is older then Jeff Jarrett with two years. And by that point Booker T had held alot more titles then Jarrett had.
Jarrett may be younger but he was established in the main event and had been a world champion in WCW. Booker T (at the time) probably wasn't considered a top contender and was just moving on from that crappy G.I. Bro gimmick, but Booker's first title reign came unexpectedly and was a historical moment for him and his fans who wanted to see him succeed.
I love how they painted Russo and Jarrett as saints when in reality, they were worse than Hogan on that night. What's funny is that they did that exact same spot at Halloween Havoc 99 with Hogan coming out in street clothes to lay down for Sting. And 10 years later, I STILL don't buy Jeff Jarrett being a credible, main event caliber World Champion.
Jeff Jarrett probably never has made the Hogan, Taker, HHH, HBK, Hall, Nash money, but Jarrett (along with his Dad) started TNA with the money he did have, which you'de never expect. Glad we have one wrestler taking chances against Vince McMahon success or fail.
For me as a fan, I have respect for Jarrett for 2 reasons: The courage to wrestle at Over the Edge 99 right after Owen Hart's fall and his heartfelt speech at Slammiversary about TNA and his wife Jill
But I still don't think he's that big of a star IMO. I thought him as WCW champion was Russo's idea and favortism and NWA/TNA World Champ is easy cause he owned the company.
yeah, but the man works his ass off to be the best he can be. Just b/c WWE decided to sabotage his push doesn't mean i'm NOT going to lbigook at him as a big star, cause he is one.
@bammybound I agree,I think WCW was pushing way to hard to have Jarret as their Rock/Austin, I mean really Slap-Nuts? Is that the best they could come up with? Plus who needs a guitar to get over? Austin/Rock sure didn't
man i remember the wcw world title was a joke i mean anyone would in 2000 could win that belt. even a homeless person could win that belt cause everyone walked through the matches and when the person won the belt, they would give up the belt in 2 days.
I just read the spoilers for this thursdays show...yeah...TNA is fucked...thanks for killing it Hogan...almost like Vince sent him in to destroy it...
Hogan is an asshole for killing the real alternative fans had to WWE. I'm sure of one thing though, if TNA goes down, Hogan's fame and popularity will go down with it and everything people remembered about him and Hulkamania will go down the toilet.
All I remember is the belt they placed on Booker T was this big cheesey looking thing. It looked like it was brass. And i'm not saying I dunno what the big nwa/wcw/nwo belt looked like. But the copy Booer walked with looked fake. And then Russo made Booker act like the Rock. But I do like Booker T and i'm glad he got the belt anyway.
It was a work, except for the last promo by Russo, which he made after Eric and Hogan left the arena. I don't know why I would reply to someone with the grammar of a 2 year old.
Russo as booker didn't have the power to fire someone. Hogan went home and continued to collect a pay check.
lets remember hogan in the eighties held wwf,s belt for 4 years straight . where flair lost it more times than won it, as for a true champ its how long you hold the belt and stay on top of the mountain HOGAN is to wrestling what ARNIE is to body building numero uno
i guess he would be in his day as charles atlas was to arnold in body building . but arnold did what hogan did, they both brought their sports to the mainstream and it only grew because of them.
Fire Russo and buy out Jarret or whatever you have to do to get him gone for good and then TNA can really take off. Watcha gonna do Russo and Jarret when Hulkamania runs wild on you!!
I think the only reason he said it was heartfelt is because he got his first title shot after and because russo kept saying he did it for "the booker t's"
@DirtyPsycho69 Well TNA is doing better than WCW, they are lettiing older talent go like hall, nash and eventually flair, bishcoff and hogan are staying out of the camera a lot now and the younger talent is being pushed.
I think TNA is learning from WCW's mistakes. The fans finally get to see the heels get beaten and it's not like WCW where Hollywood Hogan had long, boring title runs. Hogan still yaks too much, but he's using his fame to promote Jeff Hardy, RVD and AJ Styles, even though Hogan is a face and Styles is a heel. Flair is managing Beer Money and is passing them the torch. In TNA you get something old and something new. I think they have a good balance.
Jeff Jarrett is one of the worst wrestlers of this age. His skills are lackluster. However, mainly...he is not entertaining. He sucks the life right out of the room.
Jeff Jarrett has never been anything better than a mid-card wrestler. When he left the WWE he lost the IC belt to Chyna - if they wanted him as a main-eventer, this storyline would never have happened. He's also a money-grabbing SoB, who will go down in history for the controversy, not the wrestling ability.
Well Jarrett sucked and always had. I saw him in USWA. Only reason he made it was his daddy as so many wrestlers that were promoters sons. But I have to say Tully earned it and Jeff was a joke.
Jarrett should leave TNA wrestling. If TNA managment really is sour on him, then he should leave and go where he's appreciated. Of course I'm only reading internet rumors, if I'm wrong, then mark this as spam :)
there goes ur answer WCW...when u have a guy like "jeff jarrett" as ur world champion then of course the company is gonna go down the drain....the WWf had hard time even with champions like bret hart, HBK, the undertaker, and ur gonna tell me that as ur company is going down, u have jeff jarrett as ur champion...?? even david arquette as ur champion...?? fuckin pathetic
I think it was a shoot. As odd as that sounds, since Russo pulled a worked shoot about every week on WCW, I think the incident was a complete shoot.
The reason why is simple. Since Jarrett had no control over his character, but Hogan did, he realized that he could pretty much become the champion whenever the hell he wanted to, and he refused to lie down to Jarrett.
This caused Russo to think of Hogan as a complete ass, and told Jarrett to lie down to show Hogan how easy it'd be for him.
there was nothing worked about this. Jarrett and Russo orchestrated it behind Hogan's back cuz, like many times in the past in WCW, Hogan didn't want to lose cleanly. Just look back at Starrcade 97 and vs Goldberg 98. Russo got pissed and the rest is history.
No...Hogan knew the Screwjob thing was going to happen it was planned just like the Goldberg/nash segements. As he said later him and bischoff celebrated the segement afterwards in the limo. but then seen/found out about the anti-hogan promo this pissed off hogan and he decided not to return and sued Russo/WCW for slander.
Well if it was a worked shoot, then apparently Russo and the rest of the creative team already knew that the company was in bad shape. So, with that, It also leaves me to believe that after Russo left the WWF, he went to WCW to try and shoot them down little by little.
that is true I don't think they would have succeeded they way they did without Stone Cold even if WCW had that Steve Austin from 1994 it would still be better than Austin reinventing himself in ECW then going with that direction in WWE I think ECW is what is the most underrated part of the "Stone Cold" character because without ECW Austin would have probably not gotten that character out the way he did in WWE and probably wouldn't have been considered had Austin not been in ECW with the promos
good point man, The thing is all Austin was being in ECW was himself. Pissed off at WCW and talking from the heart. I think Austin was determined to be the biggest star in history and his true persona was thankfully able to come out at a national level through the WWF. I still refuse to give Vince mcmahon credit for it because if it was up to him he would be stuck with the ringmaster gimmick forever. Austin was the individual who made the Stone Cold character the success that it was.
This guy has the fucking ego of a legend and is laughable...he's a fucking joke. All he's ever done for wrestling is break guitars...think about it...the dude fucking breaks guitars....THAT'S IT...

@CactusJack1127 There were a lot of ppl to blame in case you haven't heard the shoot comments from former WCW talent. Even Flair said that no one knew what was going to happen (booking) cause "this guy changed this and that guy changed that ten minutes later". Keep in mind the talent had creative control of their character, so if they don't see it fit for them they won't perform. Try to book while pleasing the top talent and having young talent establish a run, someones gotta lose.

You dammed right this incident was a complete disaster. But you CAN point the finger; namely Jeff Jarret and Vince Russo. I respect was Jerret's done with TnA, but putting him in the limelight did not help WcW in any way whatsoever.

@jfuya2000 WWF only began to win every week during 1999 - and in fact they did tonnes better AFTER Russo went to WCW. Russo gets a lot of credit for being creative enough to think of great ideas but them consistently messes them up after the initial buzz...

jfuya2000 1 year ago
@jfuya2000 I'd argue that Russo was a small cog in a big machine and that the genius of Vince McMahon and the talent of Stone Cold were what propelled WWF to such heights...also WCW was putting on such a poor product that viewers flocked over to WWF television...
For example the Nitro on 04/01/99 probably lost WCW more viewers than anything WWF had done in the last year due to it being so bad, NOT because Russo was writing the competing show...
NoBrianNoGain 1 year ago
@ahmad3652 Russo left WWF in late 1999 but by then WWF had been beating WCW in the ratings most of the time for more than a year - it's wrong to say that the attitude era was doing poorly - it was the biggest boom in professional wrestling history!
NoBrianNoGain 1 year ago
@jfuya2000 Yes the attitude era was Russo's idea when Mcmahon wanted to do the same childish gimmicks during the nWo era. He did create a big draw in the industry now mcmahon has "hollywood" writers. I also believe WCW was done because the plug was pulled by Time Warner merger w/ AOL, and before Bischoff could purchase WCW mcmahon bought it. Even the Titantron was Russo's idea which to this day is used to show the backstage stuff to audience. My how ppl forget.

Jeff Jarrett is one of the best wrestlers out there that is willing to put over a young talent to get him started. He that for Booker T in 2000. Just unfortunately WCW started pushing the younger takent too late
1987cubsfan 1 year ago
@1987cubsfan Are you saying that Jeff Jarrett put over the younger talent by putting over Booker T in WCW back in 2000 ? Booker T is older then Jeff Jarrett with two years. And by that point Booker T had held alot more titles then Jarrett had.
T82heartR91 1 year ago
Jarrett may be younger but he was established in the main event and had been a world champion in WCW. Booker T (at the time) probably wasn't considered a top contender and was just moving on from that crappy G.I. Bro gimmick, but Booker's first title reign came unexpectedly and was a historical moment for him and his fans who wanted to see him succeed.
spinemelter2000 1 year ago 5
I love how they painted Russo and Jarrett as saints when in reality, they were worse than Hogan on that night. What's funny is that they did that exact same spot at Halloween Havoc 99 with Hogan coming out in street clothes to lay down for Sting. And 10 years later, I STILL don't buy Jeff Jarrett being a credible, main event caliber World Champion.

For me as a fan, I have respect for Jarrett for 2 reasons: The courage to wrestle at Over the Edge 99 right after Owen Hart's fall and his heartfelt speech at Slammiversary about TNA and his wife Jill
But I still don't think he's that big of a star IMO. I thought him as WCW champion was Russo's idea and favortism and NWA/TNA World Champ is easy cause he owned the company.

I think TNA is learning from WCW's mistakes. The fans finally get to see the heels get beaten and it's not like WCW where Hollywood Hogan had long, boring title runs. Hogan still yaks too much, but he's using his fame to promote Jeff Hardy, RVD and AJ Styles, even though Hogan is a face and Styles is a heel. Flair is managing Beer Money and is passing them the torch. In TNA you get something old and something new. I think they have a good balance.

Jeff Jarrett has never been anything better than a mid-card wrestler. When he left the WWE he lost the IC belt to Chyna - if they wanted him as a main-eventer, this storyline would never have happened. He's also a money-grabbing SoB, who will go down in history for the controversy, not the wrestling ability.

And Jarrett suxed in the USWA, the only reason why he got push after push while he was there was being buddy-buddy with Jerry Lawler.

statusmvp01 2 years ago 3
I think it was a shoot. As odd as that sounds, since Russo pulled a worked shoot about every week on WCW, I think the incident was a complete shoot.
The reason why is simple. Since Jarrett had no control over his character, but Hogan did, he realized that he could pretty much become the champion whenever the hell he wanted to, and he refused to lie down to Jarrett.
This caused Russo to think of Hogan as a complete ass, and told Jarrett to lie down to show Hogan how easy it'd be for him.
Fail.
KongregateNews 2 years ago
No this was a worked shoot. the only part of the segement which was a
shoot.....was when Russo came back on stage and cut a huge anti-hogan promo. this pissed hogan off and he never came back,
smudgeVIW 2 years ago
there was nothing worked about this. Jarrett and Russo orchestrated it behind Hogan's back cuz, like many times in the past in WCW, Hogan didn't want to lose cleanly. Just look back at Starrcade 97 and vs Goldberg 98. Russo got pissed and the rest is history.
donvito7534 2 years ago
No...Hogan knew the Screwjob thing was going to happen it was planned just like the Goldberg/nash segements. As he said later him and bischoff celebrated the segement afterwards in the limo. but then seen/found out about the anti-hogan promo this pissed off hogan and he decided not to return and sued Russo/WCW for slander.
smudgeVIW 2 years ago
Well if it was a worked shoot, then apparently Russo and the rest of the creative team already knew that the company was in bad shape. So, with that, It also leaves me to believe that after Russo left the WWF, he went to WCW to try and shoot them down little by little.

that is true I don't think they would have succeeded they way they did without Stone Cold even if WCW had that Steve Austin from 1994 it would still be better than Austin reinventing himself in ECW then going with that direction in WWE I think ECW is what is the most underrated part of the "Stone Cold" character because without ECW Austin would have probably not gotten that character out the way he did in WWE and probably wouldn't have been considered had Austin not been in ECW with the promos
mothercanuckers 2 years ago 2
good point man, The thing is all Austin was being in ECW was himself. Pissed off at WCW and talking from the heart. I think Austin was determined to be the biggest star in history and his true persona was thankfully able to come out at a national level through the WWF. I still refuse to give Vince mcmahon credit for it because if it was up to him he would be stuck with the ringmaster gimmick forever. Austin was the individual who made the Stone Cold character the success that it was.
