I don’t care what anyone says, this game absolutely sucks.
The commercial does too. Even Randy Savage was like, “Nah, just send in a guy with my robe, I ain’t showing up for that pile of crap.”
Can’t blame him!

The list of issues may be a bit long, but I’m sure you’d all agree it’s well worth it.
While it may have taken men like Kurt Angle and Samoa Joe a lifetime to learn the finer points of mixed martial arts, good ol’ Double J mastered it in a couple of weeks.
Watch as he taps out children and leaves them laying in a heap.
Screw when he held up Vince for a quarter mil to job to Chyna, this was truly his finest hour.
I know a lot of folks prefer WrestleFest, but for my money the best arcade wrestling game in history is Superstars. It’s much faster, has better reversals, and is just more fun.
Plus it has Randy Savage and Andre the Giant. And look at Virgil counting the money!
And that’s not even including Elizabeth looking at your junk when you win the belts. 😉
Oh man, the original trailer for the greatest movie Vince McMahon even wrote while coked up in a hotel room (allegedly).
Even more amazing in retrospect is you can tell they were trying VERY hard to appeal not just to wrestling fans, but to a larger audience.
An untapped audience that really wanted to see Hulk Hogan get it on with Joan Severence apparently.
Tremendous television here.
It’s kinda amazing the show wasn’t cancelled immediately after this fiasco aired.
Or that Max Caster, here as “Frances”, didn’t abandon the business altogether too!
Hey look, it’s my buddy (and Death of WCW co-author) Bryan Alvarez in action taking on a mysterious masked man known only as the Ideal Canadian. Who, oh who, could that be?
Here’s a hint – he’s a famous wrestler, having competed in WCW, WWE, and ECW. Guess in the comments below! 😉
Oh yes, this one, where he gave us all a lesson in US history.
I love that AEW captioned it with “What did he say?”
Honest to goodness, it’s almost a year and a half later and I still don’t really know.
From the “wow, this sure didn’t age well” file would come this nugget from NWA-TNA with Tony Schiavone turning heel for, well, no real reason that I could comprehend.
On the plus side his shirt rocked.
I like it much more than the earrings he’s sporting these days.
A blast from the past for sure! Can’t believe it’s been fifteen years (!!!) since I originally posted this on YouTube, holy smokes.
And obviously a lot of smoking was done when someone came up with this originally.
And I’m pretty sure it wasn’t tobacco.
