The Equalizer vs The Shockmaster



Two of the worst, in the same match. Only in WCW.

And the Shockmaster's music has to be the least exciting theme ever.

Peter Maivia vs Sylvano Sousa's haircut



COMMENT FROM YOUTUBE: "NO CONEST"

The 1992 Royal Rumble - Live vs Edited



COMMENT FROM YOUTUBE: "Watch the finish of the 1992 Royal Rumble. First, watch it live, then watch how Vince McMahon WANTED you to feel about the finish.

The cheers for Hulk Hogan being eliminated suddenly turn to boos."


MY THOUGHTS: This is pretty amusing. I had the VHS tape which was not "sweetened" in any way. Probably because it was released after Hulk had left the WWF following Wrestlemania VIII.
