Did whatever agent in charge of this show just pick four random names to make up this tag match?

Without looking, I'm going to make a bold guess and say Blair ate the pinfall.

This is interesting. Savage jobs to Rick Steiner in Japan in 2000. Both men were still under contract by WCW. Steiner was apparently a replacement for Goldberg. This was one of Savage's last matches.

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

That was an interesting match. Odd botch toward the end with Steiner falling from the top rope before hitting a Bulldog.

I knew that Sting-Giant-Savage match existed. It headlined a WCW house show I saw about a week before that one. Thanks for posting that!

Has Savage's Machoman.com exclusive matches ever found their way online? I only know he wrestled Pat Tanaka for sure.

Weirdest part of that is "What Up Mach?" era Macho Man doing babyface Macho Man mannerisms. Although I guess he might have done them in '98/'99 WCW. I've just blocked everything he did after 1997 out of my head for the most part.

I think Savage was technically a babyface in WCW after he dumped his hoes (?)

I'm pretty sure Savage didn't make another appearance in WCW after the match with Rodman in Road Wild '99 but was under contract. He made that quick cameo on Thunder during the Millionaire's Club/New Blood feud but that was it.

According to the description of the video I posted, he worked a random house show against Sid Vicious in 2000.

Why didn't WCW use him during that hiatus anyway?

1999 he didn't like the booking, and wasn't under contract. 2000 he wasn't under contract.

Looking at Cawthon's site, Savage made one more appearance on WCW TV in '99 after that. He returned the night after Halloween Havoc '99 and cut a worked shoot on Vince Russo and talked about how The Powers That Be wouldn't hunt him down like they did to Ric Flair and Hulk Hogan. He also mentioned he was looking to pass the torch to the next Macho Man. Then he never appeared again because lolVinceRusso.

Subtopic: Let's discuss who could have been Vince Russo's hilariously bad choice for Macho Man's replacement in '99 WCW?

Oh yeah! This one too! Thanks for posting all of these obscure WCW matches, Monsoon Classic! You're the greatest!

 

[MillenniumMan831]

Thanks. I plan on posting some more in the coming days / weeks. We may even see a Krusher Khruschev appearance from 1999.

Barry Darsow's Worldwide exclusive "confused over which gimmick he's playing tonight" gimmick is finally making it to YouTube???

 

[MillenniumMan831]

Here's a preview . . .

I was going to have one as the Blacktop Bully, but the VQ on that was complete trash.

You're off to a good start this year, friend with this monumental upload and getting retweeted by Scotty Riggs!

http://youtu.be/BkhU-D0wcKI
Also watching said Scotty Riggs Vs Gangrel match that you posted/Riggs RT'd and I was dying at the commentary at the beginning due to A. how loaded Heenan is calling these D show matches and B. Uncomfortably laughing at how much Tony Schiavone and Bobby Heenan's legit disdain for each other in the commentary for these shows.

 

[MillenniumMan831]

Check out the 1st little bit of this video to hear Schiavone want to strangle Heenan . . .

Brock and Waterman vs APA (Somewhere Vince and JR were masturbating)

 

[tekcop]

I really love "before they were stars" dark matches like that.

SWS/WWF interpromotional Tag-Team Gauntlet match featuring; Power & Glory, The Rockers, Randy Savage and Genichiro Tenryu, Haku & Yoshiaki Yastsu, and Ishikawa & Great Kabuki.

 

[OG]

Great find! Very good gauntlet with an excellent Savage/Tenryu vs Haku/Yastsu match in the middle.

Never knew Dean Ambrose did job duty in WWE way back in '06. Or that Velocity was still on in 2006.
