just watched the above too and yes it was booked incredibly well.
Goldbergs interference didnt hurt Eddies win at all.he just levelled the playing field for Eddie and at the same time furthered his feud with Lesnar to boiling point.

If only their match at Mania didn't suck as much as it did, it would have been an all around amazing feud. Shame both of them were on their way out and just didn't give a .

Blames also on Vinnie for that one.he changed the layout of the match to include all that stalling.I was crushed by that match.......by God I was gasping to see that.
at least I still have Steiner vs Goldberg from Fall Brawl 2000 to keep me satisfied for an over the top power brawl.

Up to the train-wreck of a match at WMXX, that feud was pure perfection.

Ric Flair and Arn Anderson Vs. The Hollywood Blondes- Clash Of Champions XIII
This match should have been awesome but the lack of crowd involvement out of a few select pops and Tony being solo on commentary really make this one nowhere near as good as it looks on paper.
Brian Pillman Vs Steve Austin- Clash Of The Champions XXV
Pretty good match here but I think their match on Raw in 97 was better. Also, more solo commentary on this. It's horrible.
Regal Vs. Dustin Rhodes- Clash Of The Champions XXVI
This is just okay. As always Hennan is fun to listen to on commentary. Why is Dustin so dang boring when not doing the Goldust character?
Sting and Flar Vs. Rick Rude and Vader- Clash Of The Champions XXVI
This is a good match. It just sucks that it seems like all of their crowds on the matches I watched today aren't hyped enough about what is going on.

Another (somewhat) spoiler free breakdown of a WCW PPV. This one is longer because the show was just..:
WCW SuperBrawl 7 (1997): "He is one of the nicest young men WCW has ever let into the fold" - Tony on Chris Jericho
Match of the Night: Benoit/Woman vs. Taskmaster/Jacqueline: This was just one really fun brawl. Nothing else to say. Got the crowd going after the undercard put everyone to sleep. This was one of the few matches that actually had a clean finish.
I usually do a Worst Match of the Night here, but we'll get to that...
Highlights: - Piper's escape from Alcatraz: The video was so cheesy and so bad it was good. What killed it ultimately is during Hogan/Piper they actually treated it as legit. - Malenko/Syxx: Great fast paced opener. Screwy finish however took any real steam out of it. - Faces of Fear/Public Enemy/Harlem Heat: Booker T was really good in this match. It was short, to the point, and good while it lasted. - Nash Powerbombs The Giant: This was an awesome move and A beauty of a powerbomb. 11 months later the same spot damn near kills The Giant.
Low Points: - Cruiserweight 6 Man Tag: Sloppy match with a botched finish. Juvi did all he could to make it exciting and there were several creative moves, but ultimately this one just didn't click. - Mysterio/Iaukea: Another screwy finish to a match that should have been a good one. Again, nothing just seemed to work here. It wasn't particularly bad, but it wasn't great either. - DDP/Buff Bagwell: Screwy finish to a mediocre match. DDP though, it's hard to imagine this was the same guy that was at Starrcade 1996 2 months earlier. Total turn around. - Eddie Guerrero/Jericho: Good wrestling, but the dead crowd just ruined it completely. Crowd engagement is essential to have a good match. The wrestling was good, but the crowd was either silent or booing. Eddie Guerreo though has the best powerbomb in the business. Nash hit a beauty, but Guerreros always seemed more impactful. Side note: Heenan calling Guerrero "La Bamba" repeatedly was offensive. - Mongo/Jarrett: Screwy finish to a mediocre match yet again. The match was built that id Jarrett won, he'd be in the Four Horsemen. Disgraceful. - Hall/Nash vs. The Giant (& Luger): The match wasn't bad, but I dont really understand why Luger couldn't have been in there longer. Add in the fact that there was two falls in this thing, it just left a bad taste in my mouth
* Hogan/Piper gets it's own section. I was NOT looking forward to this. 5 men interfered or came out at points. The match was MUCH better than Starrcade though, which I give them credit for. But the big thing was the finish. Spoiler alert: Piper puts him to sleep with the sleeper in the middle of the ring, ref rings the bell and Piper wins the title. Savage drags Hogans feet under the ropes. Referee restarts the match saying Hogans feet were under the ropes, Savage gives Hogan knucks, Hogan KO's Piper and wins. Problem? Hogan was NOWHERE NEAR the ropes when he went down to the sleeper. Therefore, the match should not have been restarted as Hogans feet were under the ropes only AFTER the bell rang. The announcers actually had to explain this as it was a really bad botch. Then you got the gratuitous beatdown of Piper after the match that added nothing.
Rating: 2/10. I love WCW, but my reviews probably leave the impression that I don't. Look, when you have 7 screwy or botched finishes on a 10 match show, it'll leave a negative impression on you. The card on paper looked to be great, but this one was honestly a chore to sit through. WCW had ridiculous talent during this time, but the crowd either didn't care(Eddie/Jericho) or the finishes were so badly booked they took what was a good match and brought it down notches (pretty much every other match)

Sucks that they cut Jesse Ventura's part of the commentary out. Is that from the Clash DVD/Blu-ray? I haven't checked it out on that set yet, but I watched it live at the time, and Jesse was outstanding busting on Flair and Arn for being old and out of shape while singing the praises of the Blondes. Jake Roberts vs Terry Taylor from the UWF. Can't wait for WWE to crank out some Mid-South/UWF DVDs. Hogan-Flair from MSG in '91.

Now I'm trying to remember if I've seen it with the commentary in tact

Bret Hart vs Rick Martel: WWE classics just added a MSG house show and a Primetime ep from 89-90 that featured these two in 20 minute time limit draws. I know for me Martel was somewhat forgettable at the time because I never got into the model gimmick, but he had some good in ring skills and really held his own with Bret.
The other thing I noticed is how Bret could do a proper side russian leg sweep. He locked his leg around Martel's and swept it out from under him. It's odd to get excited about such a simple maneuver but he executed it perfectly and it really looked good. Too many of todays wrestlers do the lazy version where they don't actually hook the leg and that bothers me.
