This was my favorite time in WCW. It was so bad but so entertaining.

That card looks to have a good opener, a good main event, and a load of crap in between.
A s*** sandwich if you will. Although to be fair I haven't seen it, but that card doesn't inspire much confidence.

Renegade and Evad Sullivan....WCW could have picked any random fan in the crowd and put them in the ring, and they could have put on a better match than either of these two could. I remember Tony Schiavone saying "one legged dropkick from Renegade!" as though that's somehow better than a regular dropkick.
Sometimes I'm surprised wrestling itself survived 1995.

Apparently Sting vs Meng is actually a decent match. I dare not watch to find out though.

This card was on PPV?
People actually paid for a PPV card with Evad arm wrestling and Pitbull Pittman regular wrestling? The mind boggles.

And he ordered Uncensored '95 for the sole purpose of witnessing the implied return of Ultimate Warrior as Hogan's "Ultimate Surprise". Talk about a mark... |

Great moment sees Nick Bockwinkel come out to discuss Vader attacking him earlier in the show and when he goes to tell Tony & Bobby that Vader will meet Hogan at Bash at the Beach, he forgets and has to ask what the next event is coming up.
Bobby ducks behind Nick to laugh and Tony tries to keep it together, but eventually cracks a "well he blew that one" smile.

Never seen the whole card, but Sting vs Meng here is pretty solid as they work the Sting-Vader style match. Flair and Savage also good, they had good chemistry together.
Anderson-Renegade is possibly the lowest point of Arn's career, on the other hand. What an absolute pro.

Uhhh, WCW was a suck fest at this point. Yes, there were SOME good things going on, like Savage vs Flair, Benoit, Guerrero, etc, but overall it was terrible. WWF was much better at this time.

WWF was much better at this time. same month as GAB. That's true. Still, at the time I think there was more good than bad in WWF. In WCW it was the complete opposite. |

Ah the Evad Sullivan/DDP feud reminded me of a poor repetition of George Steel and Randy Savage

Apparently Sting vs Meng is actually a decent match. I dare not watch to find out though. Believe it or not, it actually is a pretty good match. I remember renting this tape from Movie Gallery when it first came out. The mid 90's WCW pay per views are usually filled with WrestleCrap... but like someone else said earlier, it's because of this reason that they are some of my favorite tapes to watch. You should give it a whirl if you have 24/7. You already paid for it, technically, so you might as well watch it. |

Interestingly, Hogan was left off this card and there was no WCW World title match.
