Amazing video again what is the Purowave (world of wrestling synth) link not right
I wouldn't get a tattoo... but any chance we can get that image as a sticker? I love it and I wanna put it on my computer where I can look at it every day and remember that life does, in fact, have good stuff in it. Thanks for another year of entertainment, nostalgia and sidesplitting belly laughs.
cheers as ever lads, I am getting spinal surgery soon and been re-watching old episodes as i wait as i can't do a huge amount at the moment. just watched the: "Are you ready to enter Hell" episode. Desperate to tell the Doctor: "I am ready to Enter Hell"
As a father of 4 kids, you don't get gifts so much, because your gifts are watching your kids open up all the things they have been wanting for months. Then when Christmas day comes, rather than sitting back and relaxing, you get to put various gifts together. However, the feelings I had of anticipation all day waiting for this episode to drop, it brought me back to Christmases gone past waiting to open the Nes, Snes and N64. It's a feeling, I haven't felt in years. Thanks osw
Damn dude, took the thoughts right out of my head. I miss those feelings too, but I got a hint of them this weekend with new uploads from OSW, The Completionist, and the AVGN.
Sounds like you and I grew up around the same time because you brought back multiple memories for me.
Reading things like this makes me genuinely really happy I never had kids.
Bro, same.
I spent all morning building a complicated lego robot with my son, one Bluetooth headphone in, watching OSW review 😃
That Impact! crowd was absolutely shocking.
The sheer silence.
Impact sadly has been like that for months, it's time for them to find a live crowd with a pulse.
Where is the lie???
They're at a day of TV tapings and nobody else got that reaction. It's a Fish problem, not a crowd problem
tried my best to stifle my laughter so OOC could experience it for himself. Horrible having to keep it to myself for a couple weeks! i won't lie i've been watching more impact since, i can't believe it
@@OSW did ye get to the end and see Bobby drop the absolute bombshell that the crickets he was cutting his promo to were his HOMETOWN??? This might be the boy to end all boys lads, idk if wrestling's seen the likes of it before. I'm starting a petition to introduce a new calendar system separating Before Bobby (BB) from After Bobby (AB).
Three things I need in every OSW episode:
1) PAUL! I can't feel my legs.
2) OOC and Jay singing K Kwik and Road Dogg's entrance theme.
3) Any reference to divvy knackers.
Great episode!
That big Riggs segment is a prime candidate for a botchamania ending.
Edit: So friggin happy it made it into BM, crackin job, lads!
I dunno mate, it was actually funny.
You called it.
You made it onto a Botchamania! A winner is youuuuuu 🥳🎉 Botchamania 465: ua-cam.com/video/DhCdB_jNxow/v-deo.html
@OSW Review HD thanks lads, I feel like Make A Wish John Stewart!
Turns out that Ol’ Dibiase was just playing it true to life the entire time.
I always thought his born again stuff was bullshit he seems the type you can't trust as far as you can throw
Everybody's got a price, turns out his was $2.1 million in welfare money
Dibiase was just maintaining kayfabe outside the ring. That’s dedication to the craft right there.
@@ghostofsocrates and everybody talked shit when Flair did it
The DiBiase defenses they did it for Virgil because of fuck money Vince McMahon created a monster when he created that DiBiase born again Christian b******* is just a scam
I had the honour to have dinner with Ted Dibiase as part of a promotional giveaway from a local radio station. He and Virgil (Vincent) were a blast and awesome to listen about their wrestling history. I am sad to hear that he is involved in that scandal. ☹
Thank u for sharing with us brother 🙂
About Savage being the catalyst for the split of the nWo: That was actually how it started in 98 with the Wolfpac. It was Savage who became less and less controllable and even at one point punched out Bischoff during a segment. Everything looked like Savage would lead the Wolfpac, but then somehow Nash completely took over his storyline and it was all about him and Hogan all of a sudden, with Savage being pushed to the side as just one of Nash's minions in the Wolfpac. I can't remember if Macho got injured or what happened for him to lose this storyline, but I was quite pissed about it.
I'm pretty sure that was when he tore his ACL.
See ya at high noon hicken bottom , at The Alamo
in the basement
DO we have your attention now, Paul Levesque?
I'll be waitin' for ya!
For the 6th christmas in a row, you 3 have made a donegal man most happy
Sláinte brah! Please get Finley a knob shield!
Happy Christmas from a Derry neighbour
Is that a new sexual orientation or something similar?
Shur I wouldn’t know, I’m from Donegal
Gotta say, OOCs ongoing feuds with both Meng and WhatBar are really picking up heat. Can't wait for the triple threat match. Great work with this one lads. Merry christmas to you!
Mr. OOC ... Meng ... What Bar?
*You think you're special? ... You do."
Can't wait till Meng eats him alive.
I loved the others trolling him with the "do those colours remind you of something..." comment
I uncontrollably LOLd at "2 hours of road dogg running the ropes" and woke my 3 day old son. Worth it.
“Watching his little mushroom move around” wrecked me.
I might have had you beat when I heard dogg bust out that howler about him being better than Brett Hart at anything
Congrats on the new edition.
The fact that the 3 of you found each other is a miracle for the rest of us. Even when I’m at my lowest of lows I can have a good laugh watching these. Merry merry Christmas lads.
Very kind of ya to say matey. Hope you're having a relaxing week and that 2023 is a banner year for ya 🙂
Quite LITERALLY just finished re-watching the World War III review where Luger's mad noises get pointed out and here's a brand new episode waiting!
My favorite part of Dean Malenko perving on Lita was when he invited her back to his hotel room with the wonderful line, "You can't deny the feelings between us, Leet-Oh."
My man was anti-charisma all the way through his career. It's amazing isn't it? That was the only time he had a character and he gave us the most robotic acting only Dean Malenk can give us. The "Double-Ho 7" gimmick was short but hilarious.
My favorite line in that angle was Dean saying "Only my wife is married." 😂
2022 has been tough for me, but I discovered OSW.
You boys have gotten me through some dark times, and I cannot thank you enough.
Happy days are here again! ❤
Welcome to the family!
Welcome brother, merry Christmas! ❤
ONE OF US!
ONE OF US!
Same here!
Lucky find for you my man, id love to be able to go back and rediscover osw from the start again - 10 years of solid gold comedy
I bought a Peacock subscription last year and one of the first things I saw was this episode of Nitro.
And man it felt like an eternity, ESPECIALLY the Hogan segments.
Thank you so much for doing this guys. My girlfriend and long time friend in general just passed Christmas eve and this has managed to at least make me smile through some tears. Love you Lads ❤️
Sorry for your loss brah
ah i'm so sorry to hear that mate, thanks for spending a part of your day with us. Keep fighting the good fight. also DM me on twitter i'll send ya something nice!
@@OSW Top Lads.
Condolences Dana. Hope you find some light as you work through your grief
Oh mate, im so sorry to hear that. I hope you and your family are doing as best as they can x x
The Giant and Nash literally wresteled the next month at Souled Out, not over a year after 😅 Remember their whole the powerbomb is banned storyline?
Yeah it was an awesome match and a huge storyline cuz the both looked so crazy... The powerbomb was banned for a few months. They also had a rematch at Uncensored 1998.
1:17 "we do it for the fans." Mr OOC went full on Diesel signing autographs on that one!
The Hickenbottom at the Alamo callback is probably my favourite OSW callback, other than maybe "Paul!" - so good haha
The Big Riggs part had me dying. I love it.
I love the shout out to Brennan and Manny. Them being MMM is fantastic.
OOC was on fire during this episode, what a performance lads! Can't have Christmas without a bit of OSW!
I love how the crowd chanted "Five brass rings" at Tom, and he said they were wrong, as if the crowd, and us at home, didn't get it immediately.
I knew the second Tom asked it was five brass rings
@@FretzlemaniaPod missed that and thought it was going to be "5 giant swings". 🤔
@@SirHuggingtons I thought exact same thing 😂
@@SirHuggingtons That would've been better because I assume 5 brass rings is an aew reference and I don't watch it.
@@SirHuggingtons My thought was five broken teeth for some reason.
You guys have given me as a gen-z wrestling fan appreciation for eras that I otherwise would have completely missed out on. We constantly get showered with attitude era nostalgia bait. But I knew basically nothing about WCW outside your podcasts.
Fun fact: $43,000 USD in 1997 is worth about $79,760.58 in today's money.
I'm in literal tears at "New new new world order." Beautiful work, fellas.
I don't know what brought me more joy. Ooc snuggling with the Luger doll or his animated boy fever dream with a face full of shamrocks
Only 15 minutes in I'm already all smiles. You guys are really cracking.
I mean...where's the lie! 😃
Sláinte brother
X-Pac on that action figure box is the original “Hide The Pain Harold” meme 😂
1:21:46
In early 1998 the faction started having trouble due to Macho and Hogan fighting for leadership, with Macho and Nash leaving to start the NWO Red and Black. Macho was made the leader at first, but got injured soon after and Nash became the leader.
19:05 I knew Bobby’s run after he got kicked out of AEW was naff, but goodness gracious no one could have prepared me for that promo.
Screams of political podcast newbie, ya know? Like dude just got a blue snowball and a dream with that promo
I didn't even know he wasn't with AEW anymore.
That stint didn't last long...
MR. OŒ IS MONEY!!
Mansoor and mace spot a pic of OOCs iconic shit clobber and are convinced he's a fashion icon. BOOK IT
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Hears to getting WCW over on your channel! 🍻
10:18 HELP ME! THEY’RE IN MY H-
19:20 Watching Impact now feels like waking up from a frozen sleep.
35:02 OOC the party pooper
48:47 “ambient noise”
"Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell, Jingle Bell Rock! Jingle Bell suck my" - Jay
Less than 30 seconds and you had me bursting out laughing!
The funniest thing about the Bobby fish promo was it was so dead silent and it was in his home town right here in good old Albany
Oh god that makes it way worse 😂
The boy stables are my favorite part of any show. Just listening to you guys shit on these jobbers is so entertaining. Damien Mizdow could never be a boy though, he was absolutely amazing.
This feels like a proper Christmas present!! Can't really describe how much your videos make me laugh. I'm from Dublin but now live in Australia and the humour in OSW Review cracks me up like nothing else. I voted for 'seasons beatings' as shamefully the 'new gen' era was my most committed time to wrestling, however you guys make anything entertaining. During the depths of covid lockdown I felt nostalgic and looked up Wrestlemania 6 to watch Hogan/Warrior and found OSW by accident. It was so fucking weird to hear wrestling being commentated by 3 Dublin lads. I was in stitches immediately. Made me less homesick!
Sláinte brah, glad we can give ya a slice of home 💚 Btw what's the breakfasts roll situation out there?
@@OSW Lacking entirely! It's just not a thing. Definitely a market for it. Miss them terribly.
Oh man, please open the first ever Aussie Breakfast Roll Bar 😉
You could call it ‘The Breakfast Roll-Up’ 😬😂
Love you guys. keep up the be wresting podcast of all time. Its a shame yall arent at a million subs yet. Hands down, nobody does it like yall!!
Cheers brother! I'll send over Sunny for a dance. But I won't tell u if it's 1997 sunny or 2017 sunny
@@OSW lmfao!! is it bad that i might take em both lol!!! She crazy but i have a tendency to attract the crazy brotha lmao js
@@OSW lmfao tell me right now you wouldnt smash sunny just to say you did. lmao just use a rubber my guy hahaha
Third Christmas in a row spent with you guys and looking forward to more. Merry Christmas!
Same. My nephew and I sat at the dinner table watching Bammer lose to LT
my family has always does christmas stuff on new years eve, so OSW is my number 1 christmas day tradition now. i'm so happy this has became a thing.
Boys - what a gift this is. Got a 4 day old baby currently lying in my arms after screaming her lungs out and I'm on the first shift while my wife tries to catch up on sleep.
This'll get me through this shift perfectly. Got the Black Reign arc lined up for the next few sleepless nights. Thanks for the incredible work over the years.
Ah congratulations to you my dude. Wonderful addition to the family 🥳🎂 hope you and the missus get a great run of uninterrupted sleep! All the best to ya and the family matey
This episode could've been zero commentary until, "It was just whacka-woah after hey-hey," and it still would've been worth the listen. Can't wait for the new arc to start Sunday. Cheers.
Could tell you were having a great time recording this lads and it really shows, absolutely superb stuff.
Theory actually bounced back well from that burial... it seems like Trips wanted to bring him all the way down to the bottom and build him back up from there, to wash away the stink of McMahon. He didn't look out of place at all in the recent Triple Threat at the Pay-Per-View with two huge Stars. I think he's going places.
It only looks bad if you view it through a Vince-led lens, who had conditioned us to thinking if you're at your lowest, you're done unless you do a shit comedy gimmick. It's refreshing to see WWE NOT do that shit now!
It's less crash and burn and more cleansing fire booking
doesnt change the fact that it didnt need to happen and it wasted money in the bank yet again
@@elltell1990 Nah it looks bad whatever way you look at it, no lover of Vince or his horrific booking for over 20 years but it's just biased giving any kind of credit to that shit, having him cash in on a mid card title during an open fucking challenge was the most hilariously stupid thing I've seen in wrestling for YEARS. Nobody gets any credit for anything there, even his redemption afterwards because there's every chance they only did that because of the backlash rather than it being some master plan. Even with him being booked well afterwards the briefcase gimmick is still dead, which if they were actually getting rid of it is fine...as far as I know though they're not, it's impossibly hard to care about it now, who gives a shit if they cash in on a vulnerable midcarders who are vulnerable anyway...because they're midcarders.
Best wrestling channel on UA-cam
Cheers brah! I'll cancel the Horace Hogan run-in on you so
There is a literal “bit of an Elias” @41:11 and I just laughed my ass off. Looks like how South Park animates Canadians and Saddam Hussein 😂. Nice detail. Also, on the subject of switching colors for potato chips, one time my brother asked me if I wanted to finish the bag of chips/crisps he was eating and I thought it was sour cream and onion but it was salt and vinegar so I went to inhale the last bits of chips at the bottom and I inhaled a huge breath of vinegar and immediately coughed like crazy. They really shouldn’t go confusing us like that.
Ha ha ha! God damn 😂😂😂 thanks for sharing!
"The Bobby Fish pop" 🤣
AKA, no pop
v1 Is pretty damn intelligent. i use to get annoyed with him at times but ive really grown to him and appreciate how good he is with seeing the pov of others. benoit's song was a favorite of mine. i always loved doing chops with the song lol.
I think we really need to focus more on Hogan head/ Mimir Kratos jokes!! LOL
Actually, Mr. OOC was right. Giant v. Nash fought in January '98 at Souled Out. That's when Nash dropped Giant on his head trying to Jackknife him.
"Somebody's Boy" Scott Norton - he IS in my Boy Stable.
That team jamming to Buck Bumble made my heart grow ten times this day
Also, holy shit, Mace is Brennan Williams!!!! Big congrats to him for making it up to the main roster!
@@DrShak2009 Look up 'Making It Maximum' on here! It's a video series of the MMM looking to find the next member of their team. Reality Internet series format that suits them great and gives them something entertaining to do while they're not on TV.
@@elltell1990 Thanks, I'll look it up :3
- Macho Man v. Lex Luger feels just right for the main event of OSW on Christmas Day!
Giant vs. Nash took place at Souled Out in January '98. That was when Nash dropped him on his head. They did meet again in January '99, which Nash won and Giant left WCW to go to WWF right after.
Great show as always, though. Keep it up.
Whenever u notice something like that, a wizard did it 🧙♂️
You forgot when Hakushi had Bret's wax head.
To be fair lads, if he'd have driven his car off a bridge like Dan Hodge, Hogan wouldn't have jobbed to the lake either.
aww yes just watched this and now i feel like i need to watch some old episodes again you guys have me howling cant wait for eps in 2023
This review is a thousand times better than the actual show. You guys turn trash into treasure. Cheers!
Osw in impressive form as always, never a dull moment with these divvy knackers! Keep it up and enjoy your holidays everyone.
looking back at this, made realize how simplistic that Nitro set looked and also how many guys didn't want to work the holidays which Starrcade was booked on.
Benoit's theme is all over the place in 90s commercials and sports packages
And pornos.......don't ask me how I know.
I've got some bad news for you Jay. You're wrong about when Nash and Giant had a match. They actually had a match a month after the Starrcade '97 no show, at Souled Out '98. It's a shame you missed this because it would have been a great moment to get V1 and OOC's reaction to Nash botching the Jacknife powerbomb he does to Giant, dropping the Big Show on his neck.
Another lovely Christmas with the lads. Keep on keeping on, OSW
Tom if you're in these comments, you're the man. You're one of the best parts of Cultaholic, your joy and enthusiasm for wrestling is contagious
More than any other episode of WCW you guys have covered I think this one conveys the problems with WCW more than any other. No one gave a shit and everyone near the top was just happy to take a check and phone it in.
I love that OSW and Botchamania have a "vibe" that can't be described unless you're a fan of both and I have been for years and always will be. The 8-Bit cards, video game music, the 80's and 90's pop culture references, the intros and endings. The OSW crew are the only across the pond accents that I can enjoy listening to because they're so in touch with Western culture it feels natural and familiar. Every other channel just sounds like a bland BBC nature documentary and I can't do it. I'll die a happy man if I ever get a "winner is you" reply from Jay. Yours truly, an OSW FUCKING MARK!
Very kind of ya mate, and cheers classing us with Maff - he's a lovely fella and Botchamania is a cornerstone of wrestling life online! I'll pass the well wishes onto V1 and some contempt to OOC 😃 A winner is you!
@@OSW I'm going to go give myself a quick rub followed by a squeezy-squeezy then die that happy death I promised. I'm so happy right now 😭. You're all "lovely fellas", keep up the amazing work and thank you for being real.
Bret on Thunder made sense because TBS was widely available in Canada, while we didn't get TNT and Nitro was in all sorts of terrible time slots.
Sting has a sort of protégée with Darby Allin, they’re dropping the ball not giving Jeff Jarrett another “Roadie” so they could have a 2v2 feud
My favorite Christmas tradition continues, happy family playing with their new shite while dad and a bottle of whiskey watch the boys! Merry Christmas everybody 🍻
This is the funniest episode yet, keep having to pause from laughing
“He can get a massive pop off of taking off a glove” cuts to clip of him not getting a MASSIVE pop of taking off his glove 😂
He pulls out his wanker hand...
Love your content on PPV and old school Reviews I have watched them all! Keep it up more old school wcw
Love the video. And Nash vs Giant did happen the next month, January 1998 at souled out and that was where Nash dropped giant on his head and neck and nearly killed him
guys - Kevin Nash didn't wait a year to wrestle the giant, he wrestled him the very next month at Souled Out 1998
Can rely on you lads to spread Xmas Cheers! *squeeze noise *
Laughed out loud at some of the running jokes on this one, and might be my favourite Ad-break guest ever. Happy holidays lads and thanks for your hard work!
Even as someone who doesn't watch the nerd anymore the big rigs part popped me. Probably the last best thing he did (while I watched regularly at least).
December 2022- “Gunther is IC champion as of recording.”
January 2024- We’re still here.
Scott Norton is totally my boy. Loved him when I was a kid and watching WCW, lol. Always funny when the OSW boys troll him and I'm wondering if there is anyone else out there who has Norton in their boy stable.
He's boy material for sure
I'd have him in my stable as well I fuckin love Flash Norton. He reminded me of the guys my Dad used to hang with and he has a 7 megaton double barrel chest. I always put him up there with Meng for the biggest nightmare to fight and say he should have played the Juggernaut in the X-Men movies instead of Dickhead Wallyvoice. Top 3 powerbombs of all time as well.
Hell yeah, good to know I'm not the only one, lol. I hated NWO growing up, cause I was to young and dumb to understand kayfabe, but loved Norton. He's my boy 4Life. Loved playing as him in NWO/WCW Revenge and breaking fools.
He's a two time IWGP Champion though, so wouldn't that disqualify him from being a boy?
@Brownie_the_3rd This is also my thought. I think they touched on it in the Warrior arc that they couldn't see how he was champion. But he was awesome in Japan, and WCW really didn't use him well. DQ'd as a boy for me as I know him best from NJPW, but he would be a boy if he qualified.
25:20 Smackdown was actually stacked back then. Later on they got the Smackdown 6 and it was the show to watch because Trips was hogging up RAW so all the talent shined on Smackdown.
"No time for love Dr Jones" that made me pop as both a fan of Indiana Jones and Kevin Smith
I always saw the Buff Blockbuster as a self-vertical-suplex 😂
I have it written here, "Buff Bagwell drags Jericho, kicking and screaming to the best match of his career.".
ha ha! wow that's an old OOC quote what match is it from?
@@OSW perfect vs luger WM9
I love that video game Mr OOC still won't wear the Christmas Geansai
Ahhh, another Christmas Day in the books and I now can relax with my annual OSW treat. Wonderful.
Tom being apart of the ad break question popped me huge, love his work on Cultaholic!
The Lexorcist giving the boys a shout? Man, that's awesome.
You gentlemen have been entertaining me, religiously, for years. From the bottom of my little, coal-black, heart...thank you. Merry Christmas!
New Christmas Day tradition for those of us who celebrate Hanukkah! Chinese food + OSW 😊 Thanks guys!
Happy Hanukkah to you brah! 🕎
This time a couple years ago I found the lex express episode glad I did happy holidays from the states lads thank you for being part of a newer tradition
The Riggs/AVGN corssover was brilliant
The best gift of them all...a new episode! Merry Christmas, lads. Cheers!
Watching this episode back for the new DX 97 Raw OSW, the Bobby Fish bit still makes me cry with laughter
The Big Rigs part killed me, love to see some avgn love
ua-cam.com/video/FkQojnt8tUQ/v-deo.html
Was thinking about the point brought up at around 1:01:38 with the nwo ignoring lower card belts, and I think that turned out to be a big positive. Those guys got to shine on their own without dealing with every match ending on a screwy finish, or in the rare time that they would've beat an nwo member, it would've ended with a post match beat down and spray painting. We ended up getting a ton of awesome matches and feuds in the cruiserweight division (with Jericho vs Malenko being peak) and we got to see the rise of Booker T as a singles star, which started with his TV title reigns.
Great points!
I popped hard for the Lex appearance at the end. Holy cow!
If the Flatliner is a self-Rock Bottom (and it is, and I love it anyway), then the Buff Blockbuster is a self-superplex. And I love it.
Less than 30 seconds in and already a new Christmas classic song.
i've been singing that song to myself for years so i'm happy to infect someone else with it!
Actually the segment with Kane pressing "Stephanie" above his head was actually Lita dressed as Stephanie, which you can kinda tell when they zoom in.
No way Scott Norton can be a boy, the man is a 2 time IWGP champion.
