The Match #16: Jeff Jarrett Vs. Matt Hardy In ’15

Before their well publicized battle in court over the Broken character that gave Matt Hardy’s career a much needed revamp, Matt Hardy and Jeff Jarrett squared off in the main event of a WrestleCade event. WrestleCade is a show that usually has a strong lineup and has a wide range of competitors. There’s a mix of past, current and future stars.

It’s the first time Matt Hardy and Jeff Jarrett have ever squared off inside the squared circle. I’ve wanted to see this match for a little while now, mostly just to see how they worked together. Luckily, I found the footage. I’m not sure what to expect. Read more

WCW World Title Tournament In 1999: First Round

This is what caused the tournament to crown a new WCW World Champion.

At Halloween Havoc 1999, there was a controversial moment where WCW World Champion Sting retained the championship over Hulk Hogan in their anticipated rematch from Fall Brawl. Sadly, Hogan would simply lay down and take the fall allowing Sting to retain. The purpose? I couldn’t tell you. By the end of the night, Goldberg, who won the WCW United States Championship from Sid Vicious earlier in the show, was also the WCW World Champion after defeating Sting in the main event at Havoc.

So, Goldberg is the champion, the top baby face is finally the top champion for the second time in his career. What could go wrong? Well…. Read more

From the fall of 1993 to late 1997, Booker T was part of the highly successful team Harlem Heat with his brother Stevie Ray. During that span, the duo won the WCW World Tag Team Championships seven times. Over that period, many fans and experts were starting to notice Booker T for his in-ring style and noted he just needed a way to breakthrough on his own.

When Stevie Ray got injured in late ’97, Booker T was left on his own and he took full advantage of the opportunity. Booker didn’t waste much time capturing gold as a singles wrestler when he defeated Disco Inferno on the December 29th Nitro to win his first WCW Television Championship. It wouldn’t take long for Booker to connect with the fans and often times Booker had the entire arena “raising the roof.” Read more
