I refuse to believe this is even the worst WCW PPV of 2000.

Refuse.

HH2000 is more consistently awful than New Blood Rising, which sucked in spots but had some decent stuff to offset it.

It definitely is.

In a 3 month span, Vince Russo and WCW put on New Blood Rising, Fall Brawl 2000, and Halloween Havoc 2000.

Fall Brawl 2000 would be a shoe-in for Worst Show of the Year in a normal year, but it's the best of the 3 by far.

Consider that Fall Brawl had the following:

--Kwee Wee, a talented worker but nonetheless doing a gimmick 100% based off of "Mango" from Saturday Night Live challenges for a Championship in the opening match.

--A First Blood Tag Team Chain Match between the Harrisi and Kronik which needed a ref bump for the Harrisusses to win

--A 7 versus 7 Tag Team Elimination (which was never explained beforehand on just how many people were it) match featuring Paul Orndorff literally almost dying in the ring in his first match 5 years after retiring with severe spinal issues. The PPV had to be stopped for 10 minutes just to make sure he wasn't permanently paralyzed.
This all led up to a finish to the match (next night on Nitro) as planned...with Nitro Girl Tygress pinning Mike Sanders, Chuck Palumbo, Shawn Stasiak, AND Mark Jindrak in the same match

--A loving MIXED GENDER SCAFFOLD TAG MATCH featuring Torrie Wilson and Shane Douglas (who attempted to get heel heat by burying Paul Orndorff in the previous match who was getting carted off in the ambulance amongst fears that he was permanently quadriplegic)

--A match in which Mike Awesome, in between 3 gimmicks at once in 2nd month of the company as the "Career Killing, Fat Chick Thrilling, That 70's Guy" went over Jeff Jarrett who only laid after multiple weapon shots, finishers and run-ins from NO LESS THAN 13 PEOPLE, I poo poo YOU NOT including Sting, Gary Coleman, and the entire starting lineup of the Buffalo Bills

--A completely dull and heatless match in the main event where Booker T finally regained his title from Kevin Nash in a Cage Match that had no spots involving the cage (Booker bladed from an exposed turnbuckle) and a finish that didn't even involve it as well.

And all this still wasn't quite as bad as New Blood Rising, which itself is better than this show.

You forgot the Steiner/Goldberg match in which Vince Russo interfered to win. This was right after the Jarrett match, so either Russo is better than the starting lineup of the Buffalo Bills, or Goldberg is just worse than Jarrett.

this was a 2 hour show with 7 matches

there were two 30 second Goldberg squashes

the longest match didn't even go 6 minutes

i guess this makes sense because the talented guys are all gone with just a skeleton crew holding it down with the super lovely green dudes who can't wrestle

but this also means that it was promo heavy and by god they do not have the people to do a promo heavy show

Kinda upset I was pulled into working tonight as I will miss this, as I thought we would be in the period of dying WCW's "decent but meaningless" wrestling phase, but I looked up a review of the show and it sounds just as bad as the last few weeks.

Meltzer must've have been extremely happy that Russo was gone in order to give these matches the ratings he did, because by all accounts this show sounds just as bad as every other 2000 PPV.

This wasn't the first "Goldberg gets fired" angle.

It was just the one that stuck.
After being pinned from Buff Bagwell's finisher.
In a tag match, where Goldberg was partnered with a midget trainer.
And interference from a planted fan, whose motivation and identity were never explained or even mentioned more than 3 minutes after the match.

*Planted fan who was Ric Flair's friend or something that he knew and had Goldberg sign autographs for at the start of the show

this was the same stipulation that they've had on since forever, instated by Russo

it was also removed by Flair but then they ignored Flair removing it

Angry_Ed posted:

And rather than do the smart thing and have Goldberg be the mystery fourth man in the WCW Title match (which had to follow the whole "Goldberg gets fired" bit) we instead get...Road Warrior Animal.

that would have been better and yet stupider than Road Warrior Animal

seriously

originally it was going to be Rick Steiner, who legitimately would make a ton of sense, but then I guess they wanted to do a Flair heel turn, so it made no sense for it to be Rick and instead gave it to the brother of booker Johnny Ace

I had to duck out early. Something I've always wondered, but haven't confirmed because I _really_ don't want to watch Sid's leg get obliterated... what did everyone else do when it happened? I know Animal hadn't hit the ring yet, did Steiner and Jarrett just do what they could to kill time? Or did Scott just pin him to finish it?

They didnt show Sid's leg getting destroyed on the PPV, they had enough time to cut to a backstage video, so it kind of drastically cuts from Sid heading to the turnbuckle to the arrival of the mystery man.

Steiner and Jarrett beat him up for a few more minutes and then the mystery man (Road Warrior Animal) ran in and punched Sid in the head and then Scott pinned him.

I thought on the original PPV broadcast Sid's leg breaking was aired in full? Not only that, but they repeated it over and over to stall for time while they could figure out how to end the match?


Wrestling Observer Newsletter 1/22/2001 posted:

The cameras not only missed it on PPV since at that point the focus was on Ric Flair opening up the car door for the mystery man. When the cameras got back in the ring, Sid was strangely laying on the ground immobile. There was no explanation for Sid's condition by the announcers nor was anything said about it before the show went off the air. The show ended revealing Road Warrior Animal instead of the originally planned Rick Steiner as the mystery man, a decision made largely because the feeling was too many people expected it to be Steiner, but that kind of booking because one or two percent of the audience knows and changing stories for that reason is a Russo mindset that they need to get away from.
