Would you say this was the last great wcw ppv? Even the convoluted main event had some entertaining moments, and the stuff that was bad (konnan/disco) was kept short. Heres the lineup from thehistoryofwwe:
Spring Stampede 99 - Tacoma, WA - Tacoma Dome - April 11, 1999 (17,690)
Pay-per-view bouts - featured Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan, & Mike Tenay on commentary:
Juventud Guerrera pinned Blitzkreig at 11:12 with a Juvi Driver off the middle turnbuckle; due to pre-match stipulations, Guerrera earned a WCW Cruiserweight Title match the following night on Monday Nitro
Bam Bam Bigelow pinned Hak (w/ Chastity) in a hardcore match at 9:34 following the Greetings from Asbury Park off the top through a table set up in the ring
Scotty Riggs pinned Mikey Whipwreck in an unadvertised match at 7:04 with a flying forearm
Konnan pinned Disco Inferno with the Chart Buster at 9:18
WCW Cruiserweight & Tag Team Champion Rey Mysterio Jr. pinned WCW Tag Team Champion Billy Kidman at 15:33 with a hurricanrana off the top after crotching Kidman on the top as the challenger attempted the Shooting Star Press
Chris Benoit & Dean Malenko (w/ Arn Anderson) defeated Raven & Perry Saturn at 14:12 when Malenko pinned Raven after Benoit hit a diving headbutt on Raven, moments after Anderson laid a steel chair across Raven's head, as Raven had Malenko covered
WCW US Championship Tournament Finals: Scott Steiner pinned WCW TV Champion Booker T at 16:00 to win the US title after hitting Booker with a foreign object as Booker had him in mid-air for a vertical suplex
Bill Goldberg pinned Kevin Nash (w/ Lex Luger & Elizabeth) with the spear and Jackhammer at 7:46 after fighting off an interfering Luger
Diamond Dallas Page defeated WCW World Champion Ric Flair, Sting, and Hulk Hogan in a Texas Tornado match to win the title by pinning Flair with the Diamond Cutter at 17:27; Hogan was taken out of the match at the 6-minute mark following a knee injury; moments later, Eric Bischoff came out and checked on Hogan as he was helped backstage; late in the bout, guest referee Randy Savage dropped the flying elbowsmash on the champion as Flair had Sting in the figure-4; Gorgeous George, who escorted Savage to the ring before contest, remained at ringside throughout the match (Savage's return after a 10-month absence; Gorgeous George's surprise debut)
