Seriously. You could do a sitcom based on stuff like this. Why hasn't anybody taken this stuff and turned it into a sitcom already? I would watch this every week.

Not to steal the OP's thunder or anything, but here's an even longer list: www.ewbattleground.com/forum/ lofiversion/index.php/t27792.html EDIT: Whoops. Found an f-bomb so I won't risk having the whole link up.

"Kaz Hayashi & Yun Yang beat Jamie Knoble & Evan Karagias in 9:21 in the show stealer. You know it had to be WCW with the graphic reading Jamie Karagias and Evan Knoble as they came to the ring" HAHAHAAHH!! "Chavo Jr. & Animal beat Misterio Jr. & Kidman. Schiavone was waiting all day for the line talking about Misterio Jr. wrestling in Mexico, and then said, Mexico is bordered to the south by Guatemala, not Nicaragua, as everybody knows. For the other three million viewers who don't have any idea why he said this, it's because 11 years ago, there was this guy who did a wrestling newsletter named Steve Beverly who had the ear of a guy at TBS named Jeff Carr. Carr made the call that WCW Saturday Night should only have one host, and it was Ross. Schiavone was so mad he went to the WWF for several years. He's hated Beverly ever since. Anyway, last week on 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire', a contestant was asked what country bordered Mexico to the south and called Beverly for a lifeline and Beverly said Nicaragua and his friend hesitated, but went with Beverly's pick, and was wrong." oh WOW, thats incredible.

Anyone remember a few months when the camera people at TNA went to the tunnel shot on PPV for no reason??? Something to think about. Or laugh at.

I love this, lol, bret hart doing a promo on nothing, so he talks about his cat. And the time magazine man of the year poll throwing out flair and jesus, making hitler the winner. Hulk "going in for surgery" and they show him walking fine.
"Goldberg was on QVC and when asked abut what he's doing in the future, he said he really doesn't know because they don't tell him anything"
"Hart did this Mexican spot where he faked getting a low blow and started selling his groin. Schiavone said Piper kicked him low. Heenan, who knew the spot, said he didn't think so. Schiavone, when he figured out what the angle was, said only an idiot like Heenan would say that he kicked him in the groin when he didn't."

This is why I'll be a WCW fan until the day I die. Even at it's worst it was the funniest thing on television.

it always baffles my mind that, booking aside, WCW could get so inept considering it had a multmillion dollar entertainment and news empire behind them that they'd make such ridiculous editing mistakes, horrible camera crew, probably a crappy director, and would mess up the names of their own guys. It's like they were cursed and everythign involved with that name would get 20% dumber working there.

This was Nash vs David Flair for the WCW Title. If I remember right Ric, Arn, The Triad, Asya, Piper, Savage, Gorgeous George, Madusa, Miss Madness, Sid, Charles Robinson that guy who owns the Chicago Blackhawks who is a friend of Flair are 14 of the guys who ran in. David makes 15 and I have no idea who number 16 is.

This is one of my favorites:
"Kevin Nash missed the weekend house shows where he was scheduled to headline against Vicious claiming a concussion suffered allegedly when he was hit with the rubber crowbar by Arn Anderson" - The Wrestling Observer Newsletter: January 17, 2000
That's right folks. Arn Anderson is one person you don't want to mess with. ;D
