There was a time I would read a Gamepro from cover to cover in a sitting. Loved articles by Scary Larry and other reviewers. It is kinda of sad that print is going the way of the cassette tape...

I thought for sure they were going to do the bit where the ref reversed the decision after the extended post match beatdown. Which would be a great cheap victory Maddox could lord all over everybody with his million dollar contract.

Jesse Ventura and pre cowboy hat Jim Ross on the announce team. Good times...
Absolutely my favorite time in any promotion ever.

So many future big names at that time mixed with names that were already well established. Ironically this was after Flair left WCW and headed to WWF too.

I wish they would've. If they just put Maddox on TV more I'll watch their shitty show.

One of my absolute favorite wrestling moments, ever. WWE.com actually has the full match up for free.

http://www.wwe.com/videos/raw-mankin...41999-25058860

Austin's pop is so loud, Cole and King are screaming at the top of their lungs, and you can BARELY hear them at first. That place went fucking bananas.

I just watched the WCCW and Von Erich family documentary. It was really good.
