WCW did a show in Germany in 1996 called "Christmas Brawl" possibly other years too
My question is - was this event ever shown on TV or released on VHS? anywhere i mean, not just in the US.
The reason I ask, is I managed to track down a VHS copy of WCW Collision In Korea (1995) a while back, which is fairly rare and for a long time I never knew existed, I'm wondering if it's worth looking for Christmas Brawl 96?

I know their is a German WCW PPV from 2000 that is out there but I never heard of the one you are talking about. Collision in Korea was shown on PPV in the US so I wouldn't really consider it rare.

Bob I don't think theres a German WCW P.P.V in 2000 even though they did some Nitros in Europe so thats what you might be referring too.

Didn't nitro also tour in Australlia in 2000?
Anyway, I've never heard of a Christmas Brawl ppv in 1996. Maybe I'll go on the history of wwe site to check if they have results of such a show.

I should be a getting a copy from someone this week but it's in PAL format so it must have been released or it aired over there.

It probably aired on the German station that used to show WCW. I actually got a copy of a German WCW event called WCW European Takeover, which took place in Germany, and it aired on a station that was called DSF, and it appears they also showed other WCW shows on that station like Saturday Night, etc.
