83 Weeks #20: Fall Brawl 1998 (Warrior in WCW)


Why did Janie Engle quit? What happened with Nick Lambros? Why was the concept of War Games changed? What did Eric regret most about this show and feel the need to apologize for? Why was Stevie Ray in the main event? Plus Eric’s thoughts on what could have been better about Jericho’s segment, the best Steiner promo Eric remembers, what was going on with Scott Hall, and of course the good, the bad, and the ugly about the debut of the Warrior in WCW!

  1. That main event should of easily been a classic with all those great stars in it

  2. I thought Eric making fun of Dave was funny. Conrad gets too upset sometimes.

  3. I know the show is called 83 weeks but I would really like a show covering TNA, especially what Bischoff alluded too at the end of his podcast with Bully Ray.

  4. I remember sitting and watching the entire promo. Just having the two of them in the ring together again was amazing.

  5. That was funny about meltzer lmao I love Ole Anderson's interview with Meltzer, where Ole basically highlights what a fucking idiot he is.

  6. HOW IN THE WORLD COULD HOGAN not practice the rematch w WARRIOR when 8 yrs earlier PATTERSON has to script the WM 6 Match???
    His ego was so outta control that he really believed he could “call it in the ring”…delusional!
    HOGAN REALLY sucked at working heel. I understand why he did, but it REALLY HURT WCW’s Baby Faces. He wasn’t going to bump & feed like HBK HHH or JERICHO ETC and as a heel he came across like a sad Memphis Heel. I don’t think that how bad he was as a Heel is truly talked about enough.
    Great Heels ‘MAKE’ Baby Faces and HOGAN was a master of doing the J O B and NOT putting someone over. It’s actually a skill that only a master psychologist can pull off.
    The difference??
    BRET=AUSTIN
    HOGAN=STING
    AUSTIN comes outta the match a bigger star.
    STING, LUGER, GOLDBERG ALL won WCW from HOGAN and ALL 3 guys just pinned him.
    He dnt truly put them over.
    There stock dnt rise, they dnt
    draw MORE $.

  7. It's funny how much shit WCW and the Warrior gets for the segment where he disappeared and showed up in mirrors backstage… Especially considering the retarded shit The Undertaker has gotten away with. Including disappearing and appearing in mirrors backstage mind you.

  8. I love the podcast but darn I miss the theme song to it.
    The 83 weeks theme was kick ass and should be brought back. IMHO
