Hey folks. Matches from Uncensored 99 Great American Bash 99 had to get removed due to copyright claims. Hogan vs Flair (First Blood Steel Cage), Piper vs Flair and Rick Steiner vs Sting were all originally included. Sorry about that.

David Flair’s rosey cheeks always pissed me off 😂🤣

I just realize that Bronny James is the David Flair of the NBA.

We could explain this entire year in WCW with a few simple words.

"Terrible Booking, People Past Their Prime and Spotlight being Hogged""
What a WILD year for WCW.
They had such an interesting roster.

Piper was brilliant on the microphone, but his in-ring ability peaked in the early 80s.  Scarily, and this is scary if you look at the current top guys in wrestling and what they are doing now... Piper was only 45 in 1999

I know we all like to poke fun at him; but David Flair had absolutely no business being on TV

As a die hard fan, I bought every 1999 ($29.99 each) WCW PPV, it was almost guaranteed that the main events were either abysmal, abysmally disappointing, or frustrating swerves that pissed off any fans still watching.  If not for the cruiserweights and midcard, most main event matches on these PPVs were unworthy of a re-watch.

“Leave the wrestling to your sister David” still stings🤣🤣

"Take control of WCW"...they have done that storyline so many times. One of the many reasons why WCW was failing. WCW didn't know what they were doing

Man, we so need a 'David Flair's US Title Push' episode of Blunder. Nothing else will stand a chance.

Wrestling Bios on a Monday?

''Sounds like a good little piece of business"😁

In the Windham/Hennig vs the Flairs, you have to give big points of respect to Barry and Curt for doing all they could to help David keep the flow of the match going.   David shouldn't have been on a big stage like that so soon in his training

I never liked Russo's booking decisions and always hated the "blurring the lines" BS that he constantly did. Like Bios said, it robs the fans of matches they wanted to see and paid for. We all knew it was predetermined, but we also know that tv shows aren't real either, but you didn't have actors walk on the set and say, "I'm not really riding a dragon," or "I'm not really flying in outer space." Just leave the illusion for us to escape to. If I wanted to see crappy reality, I'd walk around filming my own life.

The copyright claim that prevented Hogan vs. Flair in a first blood match from being included is completely sinister.

David was messing with Peek Stacy Keibler!!!!! Dude lived a legend life those years in WCW

Piper looks like he'd rather be absolutely anywhere else during his time in WCW.

I read something, somewhere that said Scott Norton believed Hogan absolutely took liberties with David Flair and he was trying to encourage David while selling his heel persona. I don't remember where I read it though. I just remember it stuck out because in Flair's book I remember him saying that David told him Norton was encouraging him under his breath and Ric wasn't surprised because he knew Norton was a standup guy who protected everyone he was in the ring with.

Whether Hogan actually took liberties, I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised. It just stood out to me that I was reading something basically confirming that Norton agreed with Flair.

David Flair was one of the BIGGEST mistakes WCW made. Talk about nepotism. I have NO issue with actors or athletes or ANYONE in life tryng to help their kid into any type of business, BUT, there's a time to say 'hey, this isn't the fit'.... David Flair just didn't even LOOK like a wrestler, but sometimes you don't have to look the look if you can perform, he couldnt do that either. He looks like a kid that should be selling popcorn in the audience. David Flair in WCW is worse than Bronny James in the NBA.

It really was the perfect storm of just multiple suck factors that lead WCW down the dark path it went in 1999.  It was one thing in the early part of the year when the plan was “still more NWO”, but the only plot was elite vs jobbers and absolutely nobody cared about any part of that.  Even if every thing was firing on all cylinders, this is NWO year 3 at this point with nothing new while the other show was peak Austin, rock, corporate ministry.

Then people started getting hurt and it seemed like plots were getting swapped by the week.  Who would have ever thought the NWO storyline would just “end without consequence”, and they had absolutely nothing whatsoever to replace it.  

It just felt like nobody was really trying at all

Ric Flair vs Roddy Piper....more chops than your local butcher !
