Episode 162: WCW SuperBrawl 2000

What Happened When ·

2020/02/19

Welcome to the final year of WCW! As you can tell from what we are getting ready to watch, the end could not come fast enough. One month after Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko, Chris Benoit and Perry Saturn walked out the door, World Championship Wrestling tried to keep the in-ring product exciting; but with Lash LeRoux and The Artist Formerly Known as Prince Iaukea battling for the Cruiserweight title, it was just not the same. They did try to rekindle the Ric Flair-Terry Funk magic from 1989 and had a

Episode 161: The Main Event 02-05-1988

Was this the best angle ever in wrestling? Many feel so. The Hebners as double-referees. Andre the Giant beating Hulk Hogan. The selling of the belt to the Million Dollar Man. The subsequent stripping of the world title and the following tournament to decide a new WWF Champ. But there is also the Macho Man against the Honky Tonk Man, and, if you look quickly, Strike Force against the Hart Foundation. It's all a part of pro wrestling lore and now you can relive it with Tony and Conrad and What

Episode 160: Tony Loves Extreme

What Happened When ·

2020/02/05

As we begin out fourth season of What Happened When, it's time to take a look back at Tony's first exposure to ECW. Keep in mind he never watched it back in the day and probably was one of those WCW snobs who frowned up "extreme" wrestling. But he quickly fell in love. We are going back in time at some of the great moments of Tony and Conrad watching ECW over the past three seasons. We thought it would just be right to begin a new season with this look back (that, and the fact that Conrad was too

Episode 159: Royal Rumble 2006

What Happened When ·

2020/01/29

In the aftermath of the shocking death of his friend Eddie Guerrero, Rey Mysterio posted a emotionally filled, maybe surprising win at the 2006 Royal Rumble in Miami. It was a show filled with plenty of gorgeous women fawning all over Mr. McMahon, but in the ring plenty of action as well as Kurt Angle met Mark Henry, Edge collided with John Cena and 30 stars met to see who would go on for a world title shot at WrestleMania (or so we thought). Gear up for a trip 14 years in the making: the 2006

Episode 158: WWF Royal Rumble 1992

What Happened When ·

2020/01/22

With apologies to Saudi Arabia, the Greatest Royal Rumble may have been back in 1992. The world title was vacant and the winner of this event would be crowned the new champ. It was an event loaded with superstars such as Jake The Snake Roberts, Macho Man Randy Savage, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, Sid Justice, the Road Warriors, Owen Hart, Jim The Anvil Neidhart, the Bushwackers and many, many more. Overall business may have been down, but it was a great time to be a WWF fan (just

Episode 157: WCW Souled Out 2000

What Happened When ·

2020/01/15

You've heard the guys describe WCW as being a "coffin on rollerskates." Well, nothing more exemplified that statement than the WCW event Souled Out from 2000. Many guys were out the door after this one as WCW was caught up in who was in/who was out/and who would be booking next. Not many good matches to choose from, but there was Chris Benoit winning the WCW title and Diamond Dallas Page and Buff Bagwell battling for the love of a woman. It was an event beset by change after change after change

Episode 156: ECW Guilty as Charged 2000

2020/01/08

ECW invaded the Boutwell Auditorium in January of 2000 for a high impact Pay Per View event featuring Mike Awesome kicking Spike Dudley all over the ring and through a few tables as well Also, New Jack met Angel and you can be sure there was a jump off the balcony. But what would a ECW event be without RVD? As he and Sabu hooked it up for the TV Title. Birmingham, Alabama was on fire for ECW including Conrad Thompson in the front row (buzz cut and all).

Episode 155: WWF Raw 01-04-99

What Happened When ·

2020/01/01

Well, here it is. The show that made Mick Foley a champ and put Tony Schiavone in the toilet. The famous show that turned the tide in the Monday Night Wars of the 90's and helped hasten the downfall of WCW. It is Tony's first look at the show and the moment, and we think you will agree, the appearance by Stone Cold during the finish of the match was one of the biggest "pops" ever in pro wrestling. The "Greatest Night in the History of our Great Sport?" Certainly for Mick Foley it was; and well

ECW Massacre on 34th Street-2000

What Happened When ·

2019/12/25

Well, nothing says Merry Christmas like a good ole ECW Pay Per View. The beloved promotions was not too far away from closing its doors, but that did not stop the action. Even though there was no RVD or Taz or Sandman (until the very end), there was plenty of action. Highlighted by a three way match for the ECW title between Steve Corino, Jerry Lynn and Justin Credible. Conrad and Tony take you back on another nostalgia-fueled trip 19 years ago. No, it wasn't a "Miracle" on 34th Street is was a

WCW Monday Nitro 12-20-1999

What Happened When ·

2019/12/18

As WCW continued to spiral downward, here is a prime example of how it all went wrong. Too much talk, not enough action. It was a show centered on Roddy Piper, and it featured plenty of big stars: Piper, Brett Hart, Kevin Nash, Goldberg, Scott Hall, Curt Hennig, Harlem Heat, Jeff Jarrett and more. But for all the big names and production efforts, it was a show that fell flat. And even the formation of a brand new NWO could not help it out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Starrcade 89 "Future Shock"

What Happened When ·

2019/12/11

Get ready for three hours of wrestling action featuring only four teams and four singles competitors. We are not so sure what "Future Shock" stood for in 1989, but 30 years later it stands for ill-conceived wrestling event. Ric Flair, Sting, Lex Luger, the Great Muta, the Steiners, the Road Warriors, the New Wild Samoans and Doom all got together for a December event at the Omni that everyone in the WCW office thought (we guess) would be great. Nope. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Clash of the Champions IV: Seasons Beatings 12/07/88

WHW takes you back to December 7, 1988. Live from Chattanooga, the fourth TBS Clash of the Champions and during the final year of Jim Crockett Promotions. TBS had already acquired JCP and because of a over-the-top angle that aired on TBS, Dusty Rhodes was out as booker. But he was still in the ring battling Road Warrior Animal for control of the World Six-Man Tag team title belt, which is now lost somewhere in Tony Schiavone's attic...but that's another story. Here we have what should have been a

Starrcade '84 The Million Dollar Challenge

What Happened When ·

2019/11/27

We take you back on a journey. A journey 35 years (can you believe it?) in the past. When things were much simpler. No pay per views, just closed circuit TV. The match: Ric Flair vs Dusty Rhodes. The prize: the NWA World title and $1,000,000. The referee: Smokin' Joe Frazier. Ah, but there is more: Wahoo McDaniel vs Superstar Billy Graham, a tuxedo match between Paul Jones and Jimmy Valiant, Ricky Steamboat against Tully Blanchard and many. many other legendary wrestlers.

Once again into the "Clash" wayback machine, we take you all the way back to THANKSGIVING THUNDER in 1990! Fully entrenched in to the Jim Herd era and basically the end of the run of Ole Anderson as booker, complete with another great chapter in the Sting/Black Scorpion saga. All of this with a few magic acts and some terrible wrestling. Happy Holidays and enjoy from Conrad and Tony and the crew of idiots at the WHW offices.

Clash of the Champions XXV: 11/10/1993

2019/11/13

Another one of those, WCW/NWA/TBS ventures that was full of talent but slim on great action. What can we say? Any show that has The Shockmaster against The Equalizer cannot be all that great. But it did have Ric Flair, Dusty Rhodes, Dustin Rhodes, Steve Austin, Sting, Rick Rude, Road Warrior Hawk, Vander, Steve Regal, Bill Dundee, Johnny B. Badd, Brian Pillman, the Nasty Boys (WITH MISSY HYATT) and Davey Boy Smith. Whew! That's the extent of it. Oh, and some confusion about the condition of

ECW November to Remember '99

What Happened When ·

2019/11/06

As with every ECW event of the '90, this one was a feast for the eyeballs (in more ways than just wrestling action)! It featured RVD, Taz, Sabu, Chris Candido, Raven, Tommy Dreamer, Sandman, Lance Storm, Justin Credible and an ass-kicking match between Mike Awesome and Masato Tanaka. Plus, let's not forget Tammy Lynn Sytch, Dawn Marie and Francine. The action was, as always, at a breakneck speed and the duo of Conrad and Tony with a few special guests, did their best to keep up!
