TrollskieTV Seriously!! She was good at it too! She had a real passion for Monster Trucks and she is a 2 time Monster Jam World Finals champion! Wrestling fans need to understand that WCW and Monster Jam worked well together and I would say it was successful! Especially for Madusa and former WCW wrestler Chad Fortune!
@@SunshineStateCoasters i was pissed when Monster Jam came to New Orleans and she was Toronto for her farewell tour, everybody I talked to that worked for MJ had nothing but high praise for her. I wish their venture into nascar would of worked out better
Well this is under totally different trucks hulkster and giant (and stinger) were under team bigfoot while madusa, goldberg, sting and nitro machine was under Monster jam
This really started the whole mythos of "Sting trusts a heel who has "turned face" and pays for it in the end". I mean, literally, how many times did this happen to Sting? Heel: Hey Sting, we should *totally* team up to fight those other heels! I've seen the light! Sting: What do you think, fans? Should I trust him and team up with him? Fans: No! Sting: Ok! Heel, let's team up! *Heel turns on Sting and beats him up with other heels* Sting: *Shocked Pikachu face*
@Gary Hall Meh, to be fair, The Horsemen only turned on Sting because he had the "audacity" to ask for a title shot, IIRC, not so much a "Hey Sting, trust me.....psyche! I'm turning on you!" moment.
Past being Prologue not withstanding... as I remember it The Intensity and Duration of the Flair v Anderson Feud at this point was such that for the Whole thing to be a Con wouldn't even enter your mind if it wasn't Ric 'Dirtiest Player" Flair
It specifically came after Heenan said something like "What side did he fall off, the side facing the parking lot or the river?" Only for Bischoff to reply with "One's side is a parking lot, the other is a river, what difference does it make?" At that point Heenan was done. lol

I believe because it was originally planned to be Giant Gonzalez (in a similar outfit to his WWF one), but there were visa issues, so they improvised by covering the guy completely as a Mummy for Halloween Havoc with the intent of Gonzalez replacing him down the road... which never happened XD
The best thing about the whole thing was Lex Luger's heel turn. Anybody that hasn't watched this run of Lex from this point to about the time of Uncensored 96 needs to check out some of it. Luger is hilarious in the role. The whole time he is trying to convince Sting that he really isn't a part of the Dungeon of Doom and still the straight and arrow guy he always was only to do something dirty behind Sting's back. Like he would be hugging Jimmy Hart then when Sting entered the room suddenly he would act like he had no idea who Jimmy was, or he'd be slapping fives with fans when Sting was watching but as soon as Sting turned his back he would treat them like they were the plague. It was such good stuff. My favorite though is when he challenged LOD to face him and Sting in a "Chicago Street fight". Of course LOD are kayfabe from the "streets of Chicago" so this is a trademark match of theirs, Sting knowing this asked Luger why he would accept this match and Luger's like "I'm from Chicago too so I can handle it", Sting then correctly points out that Lex is from the upper middle class suburbs of Chicago and not the "streets". Just a hilarious interaction.
Lex just came off like an undercover cop trying (and failing miserably) to act like a drug dealer: "Ahem.....how do you do, fellow Faces? Boy, those Heels in WCW sure are jerks, right? I sure am glad to be a fellow Face, and not a stinky, rotten, poopie head Heel.....I am totally a Face."
@@swoosh4644 unfortunately I can't find any specific videos on yt. But if you go on the network and watch the February 26 1996 Nitro you can see some of the stuff with LOD. It starts at around the 10 min mark. Then right after the promo luger faces renegade. That match is horrible but you have to see the ending and how Luger interacts with Jimmy Hart until Sting comes to the ring. So hilarious.
@Herp Derp Yep, I also love his totally disingenuous over the top enthusiasm about everything.. Not to mention all his "right Stinger!" with a shit eaten grin on his face. So awesome.

@@chronovac Funny enough you think with the disaster that this was they would stay clear from Monster Trucks and never have anything to do with them again. But back when I was a young kid I used to watch Monster Jam all the time which if similar to Nascar or anything like that where they had legit competitions like races and freestyle and kept standings and had world championships. But this was far from the last time they got involved in the sport. As back in the late 90's and early 00's they had a bunch of monster trucks which I owned all the toys for. They had an NWO truck. They also had a Monday Night Nitro one they had 2 for actual talent one for Sting and another for Goldberg which the Goldberg truck actually had the best driver in the world at the time behind the wheel. And then the coolest thing was Medusa had a monster truck which she was the actual driver for it. And she has been driving it for pretty much two decades now. Not sure what is going on with the sport as I stopped watching and not sure what they are doing with COVID and if they are still doing events for TV during this time period. But Medusa was still driving the truck as she came back in 2020 to have her farewell tour with it.
I guess Hogan pushing Big Show off a roof to his death only to come back later probably inspired wwe to do the same thing for Aleister Black and Rey Mysterio at Money In The bank
I still, too this day, cannot figure out who Luger was supposed to be "for." Like, I was such a huge Sting mark that I think this was the show where I cried when Flier jumped him (I would have been 7 at the time) and even I hated Luger.
@@michaelreppenhagen736 Luger was mainly for the ladies ages 35-55 with unfulfilled desires and lustful dreams of muscular men who grunt at every action.
The rather odd way you wrote that sentence almost makes it sound like you WANT the Road Warriors to be forgotten. Seriously, folks proper punctuation and even basic grammar knowledge can really help get your message across and be understood by more people. . One missing comma can turn what would be a rather nice and thoughtful comment about a wrestling legend who recently passed away into sounding like the way too common random mumblings of an attention-seeking internet troll. I'm pretty sure, that is the former rather than the latter but figured I'd mention this just in case some one does misunderstand this comment and maybe hopefully prevent someone from making this same mistake in the future. Just remember, re-reading your comments before posting them and seeing if they actually make sense can save a ton of misunderstandings, frustration, and misguided anger.
One of the underappreciated dumb things about The Yeti is the fact that they would cast somebody that is bigger than The Giant to play him. The Giant was clearly the big monster that they were planning to build their future around so why would you bring in somebody even bigger than him and bring light to that(Schiavone points out how the Yeti is bigger)? That takes all the aura away from The Giant. You think if there was a guy bigger than Andre in his prime that VKM would've brought him in as a throwaway character and put him next to Andre? Not a chance, he either would keep that guy as far a way from Andre as possible or he would build that guy to be his next Andre. Just another dumb move my WCW that doesn't get enough attention due to how comical the rest of the situation was.
I actually think what you described is one of the many reasons they had the whole Yeti gimmick in the first place. It was a way to use Ron Reis (the guy who played the Yeti) in a way audience wouldn't grasp on to him as an actual wrestler and wouldn't take any of the spotlight off either The Giant or Hogan. It was meant to be a very disposable gimmick from the beginning IMO. They didn't want to take the chance of him building up a fan base and diverting attention from the Giant who they were investing a ton of time, effort and money into becoming the next "big" thing, before they could "properly" introduce him with a real gimmick (which never really happened anyways) but they also figured that since they had such a huge guy might as well find something for him to do. But in the end instead of their hamfisted solution, to their self-created problem, of trying to draw attention away to from the gigantic cluster**** that was whole Hogan/Giant feud and with the ridiculousness of Yeti, it ended bringing even more attention to the whole messed up situation. The best analogy for it would be, a person trying to cover up dog crap, be taking a even bigger crap next to it so people will focus on that one instead of the original one. But in the end the only thing that does is to make the whole situation even shittier and make an even bigger mess for you to clean up. (Of course, this is all just hearsay, and my thoughts on matter from a fan/viewers standpoint, so take what I say with a grain of salt as I may be completely and utterly wrong on all fronts.)
@@Aevilbeast I heard El Gigante was supposed to be The Yeti but he had travel issues which lead to Rees filling in for him (the idea was that once Gigante was there the bandages would be removed and it would be revealed to be him).
the only reason to do it, is if you want Andre/The Giant to be babyface and put him up against a monster; which was the thinking behind Undertaker/Gonazales but hopefully with two wrestlers instead of one. And the Giant and Reese would have worked, give them a few years but 98 versions of them... that might have been fun to watch if built to right.
The "Goldberg" monster truck became one of the most successful trucks as it became "maximum destruction". Madusa had a storied monster jam career and it was overall pretty fun to see, as well as the wcw racecars.
Wow thought I was the only one who brought up such info. I used to be a big fan of the sport and would watch it all the time along with wrestling so I loved seeing the WCW trucks. They also had a few other trucks like the NWO one but that only was around for a few months. Then they had the WCW Nitro truck and finally they had one for Sting. I stopped watching the sport awhile ago though ever since Gunslinger and the driver Scott Hartsock retired as he was my favorite. Actually met almost all of the drivers from that era took pictures with them talked to them and had their autographs. As I lived about an hour away from a small dirt race track called lebanon valley speedway where every year they would have a 3 day Monster Truck event. Where they would have races and then freestyle event after it. And before and after the events the drivers would all sit down and meet with the fans.
Between 'Yetay" and every episode of Nitro being the "Greatest night in the history of this Business" I lost all respect for Schiavone to the point I don't think I saw/heard "That'll put butts in seats" when they tried to Bury Foley...
When Sting finally agreed to team with Flair didn't he say something to the effect of "I still think you're probably going to turn on me. And when you do I'm going to kick your ass worse than I ever have before."
how about going to the UWF and do the beach brawl 91 or 94 PVP even tho I don't know how to use patreon as much so uuhhh who ever nominates it good luck I love to watch bad PVP it makes me feel relax but upset because I want the grade to be a strait F-
I'm such a huge fan. Your back catalogue has really helped throughout the pandemic. Keep up the great work, thanks for being such a great representative for the on line wrestling community. Thanks Brian
Savage's ring IQ is insane, the fact that he saw the fan rush the ring and so quickly took the match to the outside so that it didn't interrupt anything is amazing. Compare that to the "cerebral assassin" who's game plan was just to beat the shit outta the guy....
Both equally awesome, in different ways. You just wanna shit on Levesque. That wasn't on a PPV, it was a house show and that fool got what he deserved, the crowd got an unexpected treat.
And pushing, and pushing, and pushing. God I cannot tell you the joy it brought me when you broke out the guitar again Brian. I loved it the first time I loved it the second. Great job. Thanks for the smile today!
This PPV was God Awful. I saw this live & barely remember any of it while Brian reviews it. In WCW's defense, 1995 was also a shit year for the WWF. Thankfully the course of wrestling would start changing the following year because it was on course to die with Trash like this.
Here's what's wrong with Bischoff's using Undertaker as justification over Giant; Undertaker was a supernatural character. That allows the promoter to cheat the rules a little. Taker at the time was a dead man with supernatural powers, it was stated with seriousness that the urn gave him power. You can get away with significantly more off the wall stuff with a character like that. The Giant was never a supernatural gimmick, so him surviving that fall needs to be explained. Also, this was over the span of like 15 minutes. When Taker was "killed" by Yokozuna, he was gone for MONTHS. He didn't reappear again until the Summerslam angle with Underfaker. So as excuses go, Bischoff's was real weak.
AND PUSHING AND PUSHING AND PUSHING!!!!... That was a lovely call back there Brian. 10/10

They didn't want to take the chance of him building up a fan base and diverting attention from the Giant who they were investing a ton of time, effort and money into becoming the next "big" thing, before they could "properly" introduce him with a real gimmick (which never really happened anyways) but they also figured that since they had such a huge guy might as well find something for him to do.
But in the end instead of their hamfisted solution, to their self-created problem, of trying to draw attention away to from the gigantic cluster**** that was whole Hogan/Giant feud and with the ridiculousness of Yeti, it ended bringing even more attention to the whole messed up situation.
The best analogy for it would be, a person trying to cover up dog crap, be taking a even bigger crap next to it so people will focus on that one instead of the original one. But in the end the only thing that does is to make the whole situation even shittier and make an even bigger mess for you to clean up.
(Of course, this is all just hearsay, and my thoughts on matter from a fan/viewers standpoint, so take what I say with a grain of salt as I may be completely and utterly wrong on all fronts.)
@@Aevilbeast I heard El Gigante was supposed to be The Yeti but he had travel issues which lead to Rees filling in for him (the idea was that once Gigante was there the bandages would be removed and it would be revealed to be him).
Lol I never thought of that , great point! 👊
The yetay who was more like a mummay.
the only reason to do it, is if you want Andre/The Giant to be babyface and put him up against a monster; which was the thinking behind Undertaker/Gonazales but hopefully with two wrestlers instead of one. And the Giant and Reese would have worked, give them a few years but 98 versions of them... that might have been fun to watch if built to right.
Confetti gun? I believe it’s pronounced “Spooter”
Can of coke for you sir.
I thought the exact same thing!!!
What about that thing Chyna carried? The one that shot off pyro/fireworks?
You're no longer allowed to do a classic review without having a song in it. I'm sorry, I don't make the rules, I just communicate them.
*𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐘𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐀𝐘!!!*
Who was more like a MUMMAY.
And the dry hump of doom!

When are you going to do a crossover with the OSW podcast? They did an amazing retrospective of this PPV.
I see the thumbnail and literally my first thought: "and pushing, and pushing, and pushing..."
To be fair:
The "F" stands for "Entertaining for all wrong reasons"
"These shoes are worth more than your house!"
- Bill Burr lovingly quoting Ric Flair
The "Goldberg" monster truck became one of the most successful trucks as it became "maximum destruction". Madusa had a storied monster jam career and it was overall pretty fun to see, as well as the wcw racecars.
Wow thought I was the only one who brought up such info. I used to be a big fan of the sport and would watch it all the time along with wrestling so I loved seeing the WCW trucks. They also had a few other trucks like the NWO one but that only was around for a few months. Then they had the WCW Nitro truck and finally they had one for Sting. I stopped watching the sport awhile ago though ever since Gunslinger and the driver Scott Hartsock retired as he was my favorite. Actually met almost all of the drivers from that era took pictures with them talked to them and had their autographs. As I lived about an hour away from a small dirt race track called lebanon valley speedway where every year they would have a 3 day Monster Truck event. Where they would have races and then freestyle event after it. And before and after the events the drivers would all sit down and meet with the fans.
Halloween Havoc 95 review? YES! (NO!) YES! (NO!)
"Kevin Sullivan's mouth is very moist" is the line that will give me nightmares forever
Flair turning on sting was hilarious
If someone broke your neck within a week of having broke your neck previously, wouldn't you be dead?
Also... WHY WASN'T HE WEARING TWO NECK BRACES?!
I absolutely died at the song. My coworkers are looking at me funny cuz im laughing so hard. I cant stop watching it
Halloween Havoc 95 was an absolute classic, this was WCW at it's hokiest and best if you ask me. "It's the YETAAAYYYYY!!"
Between 'Yetay" and every episode of Nitro being the "Greatest night in the history of this Business" I lost all respect for Schiavone to the point I don't think I saw/heard "That'll put butts in seats" when they tried to Bury Foley...
Lol that “ahh hell it was a damn setup” got a good laugh outta me
When Sting finally agreed to team with Flair didn't he say something to the effect of "I still think you're probably going to turn on me. And when you do I'm going to kick your ass worse than I ever have before."
Yes he did. Sting beat Ric Flair at the next pay per view Fall Brawl.
how about going to the UWF and do the beach brawl 91 or 94 PVP even tho I don't know how to use patreon as much so uuhhh who ever nominates it good luck I love to watch bad PVP it makes me feel relax but upset because I want the grade to be a strait F-
Oh, WCW's answer to WrestleMania IX....a few years later
The osw review episode on this ppv is one of the funniest things I've ever seen...
"kevin sullivan's mouth is very moist." i come expecting the oddest, and my expectations are exceeded.
"ZERO STARS" 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Hogan with no 'stache reminds me of Jesse Ventura without a mustache
I'm such a huge fan. Your back catalogue has really helped throughout the pandemic. Keep up the great work, thanks for being such a great representative for the on line wrestling community. Thanks Brian
The Classic PPV Reviews are some of the best content 👌
When you said you were doing this show, my first thought was "Bring back the 'Pushing' Song."
Savage's ring IQ is insane, the fact that he saw the fan rush the ring and so quickly took the match to the outside so that it didn't interrupt anything is amazing.
Compare that to the "cerebral assassin" who's game plan was just to beat the shit outta the guy....
Both equally awesome, in different ways.
You just wanna shit on Levesque.
That wasn't on a PPV, it was a house show and that fool got what he deserved, the crowd got an unexpected treat.
"Achievement Unlocked"
LMFAOOOOOOOO
2:56 I think you mean 'spooters'
Finally! THE YETAY has made it to Wrestling With Wregret!! 😀
The best wrestler ever!!!
And pushing, and pushing, and pushing. God I cannot tell you the joy it brought me when you broke out the guitar again Brian. I loved it the first time I loved it the second. Great job. Thanks for the smile today!
I too thought that Brian did this already but realized it was the OSW Review version I was thinking of. Everyone should check that review out as well.
WCW bollocks is the best bollocks.
@@daniellatkowsky6284 Absolutely
19:07 - I popped big for the return of the “pushing the trucks” jingle, and yes I did sing along😂
I pooped big for the return
Whatta know? I'm popping too.
Lololol thought I was the only one!
@@JofoInTheRing it’s a catchy tune😊
*YOUR MUSTACHE IS CROOKED*
My first WCW pay per view I ordered......
What was I thinking? 😂
This PPV was God Awful. I saw this live & barely remember any of it while Brian reviews it. In WCW's defense, 1995 was also a shit year for the WWF. Thankfully the course of wrestling would start changing the following year because it was on course to die with Trash like this.
THE YETAY...IF YOU"RE SUM SORTA KARATAY!
SULLIVAN, MY SON!!!
THERE'S NO HULKAMANIACS HERE...AHHHH...IT'S NOT HOT!
The white bengal tiger must be destroyed!!
If women and children wept when Hogan's mustache was shaved off, imagine how they'll react when Brian goes clean shaven next month.
THE MAAAAAN CALLED MEEEENG
gets me everytime
Top 10 questions science can't answer.
number 1:
"How did you know it was FOUR flat tires?!"
Here's what's wrong with Bischoff's using Undertaker as justification over Giant; Undertaker was a supernatural character. That allows the promoter to cheat the rules a little. Taker at the time was a dead man with supernatural powers, it was stated with seriousness that the urn gave him power. You can get away with significantly more off the wall stuff with a character like that. The Giant was never a supernatural gimmick, so him surviving that fall needs to be explained. Also, this was over the span of like 15 minutes. When Taker was "killed" by Yokozuna, he was gone for MONTHS. He didn't reappear again until the Summerslam angle with Underfaker. So as excuses go, Bischoff's was real weak.
An' the YE-TAY!!
“We’re gonna kick off with a bang and a whimper” is a truly perfect way to introduce a review of this ppv
"YOUR MOUSTACHE IS CROOKED!!!!" That is why I watched Macho Man's WCW run 🤣🤣
That DDP impression was amazing.
And presumed deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeead. Zero stars! :) Best joke of the review right there :)
Brian Zane, if you're looking at this comment, you've shaped my wrestling fandom and my childhood. Thank you.
And is presumed DEEEEEAAAAAAAAD!!!
Zero stars!!
"Marc Mero with the Atomic Drop, Inverted Atomic Drop, Hip Toss, Double Axe Handle from the top!"
That was the most 1995 move sequence ever.
I smoke and watch this review at least once a month, this was a hilarious show, and Brian is in rare form for this one. CLASSIC!!!
I'm so happy you sang the whole song. I'm literally crying.
19:01 i only clicked on this video just to go back to this special song again , ah memories
just here for my favorite bit on the internet: the di-a-mond cutter 💎
19:00 This never gets OLD
I’m so high and this video is easily the funniest shit I’ve ever watched in my life.
I am honestly shocked you hadn't reviewed this before.
was that fan in the ring a man or woman hard to tell
For years I thought it was a woman. Anybody know for sure ?
Its a guy with long hair
Whatever Jinder that fan was, they wanted to get a feel.
I always get a big shit eating grin when Brian mentions how bad a ppv is in the intro because the bad ppvs are so much more fun to me
I’m wondering what would constitute an F minus grade. Would love to hear him review Crown jewel 2018
Hulk Hogan Hadouken 😂
I love how the Yeti is a mummy from the Himalayas and they can't pronounce Yeti right. IT'S the Yet-A!
That achievement unlocked Xbox notification was a great touch.
Missed that one.
They wanted to stick a fish in Giants jocks to show he fell into the river.
If they did that Zane would no doubt have a priceless look in reacting to it
That song may be the hardest I've ever laughed at one of your videos, and that's saying something! Bravo!
