Another WCW tape I found here in the 1999 edition of Bash At The Beach. This is one of those reviews where I just won't do a match by match analysis because I'll just end up repeating myself over & over again. This was just an average WCW PPV with only two real standout matches in one being the WCW Tag Team Title match between the "Jersey Triad" (DDP, Kanyon, Bam Bam Bigelow) vs. Perry Saturn & Chris Benoit with the twist that all three members of the Triad can rotate in & out of the match with the third member on the floor...making it a glorified handicap match. The other match was the Junkyard Hardcore Invitational where the rest of the roster who wasn't wrestling fought in an actual junkyard away from the arena with a bunch of moves & moments that you just have to see to believe to the point where half of the guys in this match were seriously injured afterwards. The main event heavily showcased the big problem that has always existed in WCW...illogical booking as WCW Champion Kevin Nash had a tag team match with Sting vs. Randy Savage & Sid Vicious with the rule that anyone, including his partner Sting, who that pins Nash will become the WCW Champion...but for Sting to be legal in the match, Nash would have to tag him out which would then make Nash the illegal man so how could Sting win the title from Nash in the first place? In the end, Randy Savage ended up winning the WCW Championship...only to lose it to Hulk Hogan the next night on Nitro (just like how he did almost a year earlier). The rest of the card featured matches that honestly just weren't good (Malenko/David Flair), forgettable (R. Steiner/Van Hammer), watchable (No Limit Soliders vs. West Texas Rednecks in which you would clearly hear that the Rednecks got the bigger pop than the Soldiers), average (the main event) to just matches that your either going to like or hate depending on your sense of humor (The Cat/Disco Infernio, Piper/Bagwell boxing match). In the end, if you were a fan of the WCW product at this time, go ahead & get it at a cheap price but otherwise, this event you can pass on as you won't miss anything.

The worst pay-per-view of all time. This event really sucked, if you watch you will go to sleep. The main event was Sting & Kevin Nash vs. Randy Savage & Sid Vicious. The match was slow and boring and the undercard completely sucked. Don't buy this video it is a waste of money. Don't even rent this video you will stop it halfway through probably.

With out a doubt people this was the greatest night in the history of our sport, bar none!!!

WOW. What a ppv. I can see into the future. So I have already seen it. Chris Jericho fights Raven in the main event for the world title and Booker T fights Kidman for the US title.

one day bobby mcgee was swinging in his house and the man named quagmire didnt know that so then what happened was that the other guy uhh..beefy said west sieeeeed! and the lastest guy says what? u damn nazi. and then the other guy was like no, but maybe if i was payed to. thats it, i said thats it. bye, get out! leave me alone! the story is over! go away!...
