Can anyone tell me if there is more than 2 episodes of Raw from 1998? When I browse the network on PC, under In-Ring or whatever it is, and select Raw, I get 93, 98... etc, but only see 2 episodes. I know they will be adding more over time, but I figured there would have been more episodes added by now, and more from the Attitude Era. Is it just the terrible design/browsing or is there just nothing there. Mostly just want to confirm I'm not going crazy

There is a few from 1999 if you search for them.

I know they will be adding more over time, but I figured there would have been more episodes added by now, and more from the Attitude Era. The reason for this is because there are two Raw shows on 24/7 channel. One is called Raw Flashback and is showing Raw in order from the beginning. There are several episodes of this a week. Which is why there's already 20+ episodes up. The other show is called Best of Raw which is once a week (along with Best of Smackdown) and just features random eventful Raws. That's why there's only a couple 1998 and 1999 Raws right now. If Raw Flashback keeps up at the current pace we'll have several years of Raw posted in a few months. And we should be getting to the stuff featured in the Monday Night War show at about the time it starts.

So besides the DOOMSDAY CAGE MATCH, what are some other insane/stupid WCW matches I should be watching?

Pretty much every War Games from inception until about 1996 is, at worst, average, harmless fun, and many of the early ones are utterly spectacular. Unsurprisingly, stupidity and clusterfuck booking begin to rear their heads around the same time as NWO involvement in the matches does.

They open with the main event cage match with 5v5 and the only way you win is by putting your opponent in an electric chair that is lowered from the ceiling after the first 10 minutes... e: Chamber of Horrors Match

I'm really hoping that they are going to start showing Nitro at the same time as it started to compete against Raw. It would be great to see the same night's episodes of each, back to back. The only problem is that would be 4-5 hours of content every day. That brings back memories. Watch the first hour of Nitro, then watch all of Raw, then the second hour of the Nitro replay would be going on.

Bash at the Beach 1999 has a Junkyard Invitational where, I believe, almost everyone was legit injured afterwards. Bash at the Beach 2000 has the Demon/Vampiro Graveyard Match. Both classics.

It would be neat if they did some kind of "interactive Monday Night Wars" series where the segments from each show were listed online in advance and we were able to vote on whether to watch a given segment from Raw or the competing segment from Nitro. Just like switching channels back in the old days!

Check out the Kidman/Malenko match from Souled Out 99 or 2000 where Malenko forgets the stupid rules of the match and unintentionally gets disqualified It's not as retarded as the Chamber of Horrors/Junkyard Invitational etc matches, but still pretty funny since it managed to confuse a dude with tons of experience like Malenko Carlton Banks fucked around with this message at 15:56 on Mar 20, 2014 |

Slamboree 96 has the most obviously faked 'random' tag tournament ever. Every single Lethal Lottery match has either a fully formed tag team on one side, two feuding people on the same team or tag partners facing each other.

Seems like they're doing a handful of shows at a time and then putting them back rather taking everything down at once. They've already taken down and replaced several WWE, WCW, and ECW PPVs like this.

I'm not sure what entrance music he had though, I only wanted to watch the Will Borchert bit so I skipped to the end of that match. I assume they're getting rid of that, at least, and I assume that whatever they replace it with will be the drizzling shits.

Wrestlemania 22 is such a good show. Edge/Foley is probably my favorite Mania match between two of my favorite dudes ever, it has the Cena gangster entrance, it's all just great stuff. E: and it starts with Kane setting the city on fire!

Hm, my video won't display correctly in full screen for some reason. The bottom third of the screen is a black bar and the picture ends up smaller than it was before I hit full screen. This is the first time it's happened so hopefully it goes back to normal soon.

bobkatt013 posted:It would be 2000 and its the last match with Malenko in WCW. Yup, it's hilarious to watch because Malenko did something really routine and ordinary in that match (he rolled out of the ring to catch a breather) and got DQ'd because you can't leave the ring in a Catch-As-Catch-Can match and Malenko didn't know that. It's worth watching to see Malenko's look of utter legit confusion.
