10 Short-Lived WCW Runs You Totally Forgot About 

I'm pretty sure that Lanny Poffo had the real most forgotten WCW run.

That Spin the Wheel/Make the Deal thing with Jake was some pretty memorable marketing and I wasn’t even watching WCW in 92. Short, but I wouldn’t say forgettable.

Damon Striker (Edge) also wrestled Kevin Sullivan in WCW, so, he appeared twice there, not just once...

Correction, Andy. Kamala participated in the WARGAMES match at Fall Brawl 1995. The Doomsday Cage Match took place at Uncensored 1996, but Kamala was gone long before then.

I'm surprised to hear Andy. Hope he comes back to the morning news. Was thinking he left

Tell me you've seen way too much Wrestling without saying you've seen way too much Wrestling: I actually remember all of these ...

Kane and Rhino as WCW jobbers would be two good ones worth mentioning.

RIP owen hart u are missed

I'm surprised Axl Rotten's run in 91 and Jim Niedhart's 93 run wasn't mentioned

I remembered more Honorable Mentions; - Tito Santana - Taz - Kid Kash - Glen Jacob’s/Kane - Don Muracco

I think honky tonk man spent a few months in wcw

Music is too loud and distracting.

Robby V is the only one I actually remember. I marked out heavily when I saw him in ECW for the first time. 😊

Sorry, but Kamala wasn't in the Doomsday Cage Match. That match was in March 96, Kamala had left in October 95, as he refuse to job to Randy Savage at Halloween Havoc, and he was working on a per appearance deal at the time.

There’s no way in hell Jake the snake was going to make 3.5 mil in 1992. Bret hart didn’t even get paid that much for going to wcw 1997. And it’s fry not fray

Not finished yet, but really feel the need to point out most fans probably know about Animal because he debuted during the match that Sid Vicious leg snapped into!!!!! Nobody knew what to do, so the bad guys just kept kicking Sid until someone actually dragged him away from the ropes and pinned him. That poor guy was in that ring WAY TO LONG before medical help got there. 4:13

1:31 $210 a week?! Damn. In my world that's called a raise.

Were Owen and Anvil not just called 'The New Foundation'?

10 Short Lived Runs You Totally Remember If You Weren’t In Diapers in the 90s

Miss you, Andy! Please come back to the news!

What about WWE/TNA shortage runs

Honorable Mentioned; - Ultimate Warrior(RIP) - Zeus/Z Gansta(RIP) - Greg Valentine - Rick Martel - Marty Janetty - Louie Spicolli(RIP) - Honky Tonk Man - Chris Candido(RIP) - Terry Funk(RIP) - One Man Gang

Hey DANDY. I didn't totally forget any of these runs. Just because YOU just learned about them.

RVD always talks about his WCW run. Stevie showed up for a day, to be there for Raven and Hak/Sandman

4:28 Animal didn't really "beat down" Sid, I mean it was just a kick to the gut. Sid had just broken his leg coming off the top rope

Actually Styles was offered a WWE contract in 2011 or 2012 but he turned it down since he didn't want to move his family down to Florida at that time. But even Vince regretted not signing Styles back then

1:15 ...Adam Copeland also had a match with Kevin Sullivan around the same time as "Damon Striker"

I totally forgot that the ppv that Hart fell to his death was named Over The Edge. That's kinda crazy

The Godwin’s wrestled in WCW as Shanghai Pierce & Tex Slashinger

you could also add James Storm and Chris Harris t about the same time as AJ Styles, thats where they all got noticed by the Jarretts

Edge only had a short run with WCW because JR had already signed him to a contract seeing his potential, they had him working matches elsewhere to get him more experienced for when they finally had him on WWF TV

I’m watching reliving the war so I remember all this and watched it lol

If WCW never went out of business we would not have the AJ Styles we have today

An Andy Murray sighting...sort of

Kamala wasn’t in the doomsday cage match.. that was Hogan & Savage vs Flair, Anderson, Sullivan, Meng, Barbarian, Z Gangster(Zeus), Ultimate Solution & Luger.

The information about Kamala's run is incorrect. Kamala wasn't in the Doomsday Cage match. That match didn't take place until WCW Uncensored 1996. Kamala was in the War Games match at Fall Brawl 1995.

Just because you forgot or never knew that doesn't mean the same for everyone.

This list only makes sense if you were an extremely casual fan of WCW. For someone who never missed a show, this list was woefully underwhelming. Could have gone with Rick Martel, Marty Janetty, Jim Neidhart, Hercules, Zeus, Public Enemy, The Sandman, The Godwins, One Man Gang, etc.

I would have replaced Edge's entry with Chris Benoit's 1993 WCW stint

I was so close to meeting Kamala in 2011, but he had his first leg amputated. R.I.P. giant

AJ was offered a contract but turned it down as he would've had to move out of Georgia

Remember every one of these

Don’t forget the reason Jake was going to no show Wrestlemania. It wasn’t because he was being petty, it was because he had been promised a position as a writer, and they went back on their word by keeping the position vacant when one of the writers retired, I forgot who it was. But yeah, Jake I decidedly felt slighted, and that’s why he threatened to no show Wrestlemania unless he was let out of his contract.

4:19 i don't know if you are being sarcastic, but he didnt "help with a big beat down of Sid Vicious". Sid broke his f'king leg like a twig, Animal came in and hit like two strikes and the match was over.

background music is 🔥

air styles should have teamed with evan bourne during the wwe thunderdome pandemic era as air bourne. missed opportunity.

Actually AJ did get a developmental contract offer however he didn’t want to move his family when he was just starting one with his now wife around that time

Madusa tried to lay down for Luna for the title, i thought it was in wwe but Luna didn't want to break the script and get Alundra fired.

WWE did give AJ a contract offer. He turned it down because he didn't want to move away from his wife who was still in college in Georgia.

Completely forgot to mention Jake's time in the NWA/Jim Crockett Promotions before he went to WWF/E

Yeah lots of talents had a short WCW spell Kane as Bruiser Mastino RVD as Robbie V (before he was RVD in ECW) Triple H as Terra Ryzing and Jean Paul Levesque Undertaker as Mean Mark Callous Raven as Scotty Flamingo (before he was Raven in ECW) AJ Styles as Air Styles (before TNA obviously) Scott Hall as Diamond Studd (before he was Razor in WWF) Kevin Nash as Oz (before he was Diesel in WWF) Edge as Damon/Damien Striker Owen Hart Chris Daniels (before TNA obviously) Elix Skipper (before TNA obviously) Shark Boy (before TNA obviously) Sandman as Hak or Hardcore Hak in 1999 Chris Harris (before TNA obviously) Lex Luger (before WWF signed him in 1992) Sabu in 1995 Batista (while Batista never wrestled in WCW, he was in the WCW Power Plant developmental before OVW) And there are lots of others as well. While Raven, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Lex Luger would all have 2nd spells in WCW.

You totally forgot about... except when you totally remember each and every one of these. Vividly and in great detail. Glad to see WhatCulture's arrogance hasn't slowed down in the slightest. They probably still keep Sidgwick employed.

Speaking of WCW. WWE wants to bring it back when they hit Netflix because they think it'll do great numbers. Tbh if they do bring it back then I want ECW back too on Netflix. But they've both were back and they failed

Did AJ styles get an offer to sign for OVW but turn it do so his wife could finish nursing school?

RIP Kamala

I remember Kamala in WCW!

Didn’t Kane have a brief run in WCW?

WCW The Legendary Promotion The Died and Inspired WWE rival promotions I love Like TNA and AEW

Edge having a couple of job matches isn't really a run. AJ Styles WAS offered a contract with WWE after WCW, but he turned it down.

Marty Jannetty

kamala was never at uncensored 96 though he was in the 95 wargames match

Nothing shocking for me seen all wcw wwf and ecw pvvs in full

AJ Styles!

Did anyone actually forget any of these?

I had no idea Edge appeared for WCW.

Mean mark (taker) who lost to sting when he was a jobber

Why would we have forgotten about Jake Roberts? Almost every wrestling RU-vid channel has had a show about Jake vs. Sting with Jake having to force his snake (thank God, not that one...yet) to bite him! I actually went to a house show during that time that was supposed to be Sting and Jake. Since Jake was gone, we got Rick Rude as the sub.

Saved the best for last

Wild

Edge was on WCW pro multiple times, not just once. WWF did offer Styles a contract... multiple times. The deal was to go to development for $500/wk. Styles declined, unwilling to move his wife. These are easily accessible facts and information that would require a very small amount of effort to get right prior to generating this content.

The background music is really distracting.

Released on Bret Harts birthday too, nice! I have a song called “Triple Threat” that’s themed from the Montreal Screwjob if anyone’s interested, enjoy the episode everyone! 🙏🏽

I know she was doing bad, but Sunny in ECW/WCW when she had gained a little weight was the hottest sunny.

some of these like edge and RVD were in the in my eyes some of these dont really fit the list as it’s in early days before they got a push. many ppl could be added to the list by that standard

This music is rich pianas

Thankfully Matt Damon’s run in WCW was pretty damn short, like a lot of big time stars, they really didn’t know what to do with him. Luckily he made it big in WWF.

I swear I've typed this exact thing in a RU-vid comment before, but Kamala was not in the Doomsday Cage match. Is this some common mistake sourced to the same poorly researched article or something?

Lol you’re out of your mind if you think Jake Robert’s was offered 3.5 million in 1992. That was more than the entire top 10 paid people made combined. Wcw never had a 3 million dollar contract until hart in 1999. Hogan didn’t even get 3.5 million when he signed.

MAJORITY of the wwe legends are ex WCW/ WCW rejects

And the winner of the award for the most annoying and completely unnecessary background music goes to......

I miss Andy where is he?

RIP to the pocket rocket Owen Hart.

Meltzer killed WCW

Sunny was a PoS

Lots of mistakes in this video.

Luna deserved better than wwe and wcw

You must think most wrestling fans have less memory than a PlayStation 2 memory card . This video was not good at all and that's putting it mildly .

first

Lets Start an Andy Murray Chant guys

If Owen never left WCW or went with Bret in 1997, he would still be alive today

Andy sucks now, but he was on an unworldly level of suck back when this video was made.

Should have stayed

Andy Murray cone back to regular wrestling news videos!!!! Michael Hamflett is making them unwatchable.

What’s with the “wrestlamia “ remixed music? Stop.

Maybe tone done the music. Comment is barely audible,and the music is annoying.
