So i'm watching his ultimate collection and the Halloween Havoc match vs. Sting is on. Now originally they said the title wasn't on the line but yet after Goldberg won he was announced as the NEW WCW champion. The next Match takes place a month later and Goldberg enters without the WCW title. How did they go about this. Was he the legit champ or was he stripped the following night?

They stripped him of it the next night saying it wasn't officially sanctioned. That was what led to Russo's stupid giant tournament that culminated with Bret winning the belt in the finals over Benoit in Toronto at WCW Mayhem.

I think Bret Hart beat Goldberg during the World Title tournament in a match where the U.S. Title was also on the line...

This was the night after Mayhem, I believe. It was actually quite a shock at the time to have Goldberg eat his 2nd pinfall in the 1st round of the WCW title tournament. |

It was actually Sting that got stripped of the title the following Nitro, as the HH bout was indeed non-title even if the ref and announcers and so on screwed it up. He got stripped by JJ Dillon due to attacking the ref after the Havoc match, which is very weak sauce but I guess WCW scrambling to dig themselves out of that hole.

The threads where posters are trying to figure out what happened in WCW are my favorite threads.

Christ I remember watching that show so drunk I thought I had missed it and it was a title match. The next nitro I was waaaay confused. The tourney itself wasn't horrible and aside from the stoopid Roddy Piper covering him to protect him, baseball bats bending in half instead of breaking, the Montreal rehash version 3.5, thenUS title being on the line during a world title tourney, the...wait a minute...come to think of it yeah, that was a pretty f'd up world title tournament. Dang....
