Previously on the Best and Worst of WCW: We took a look at WCW/nWo Souled Out 1998, a shockingly great pay-per-view featuring Kevin Nash breaking The Giant’s neck, Chris Jericho becoming Cruiserweight Champion, and La Parka attacking both sides of a lucha libre 8-man tag and becoming king of our hearts.

Kidman would have single-handedly put an end to the powerbomb ban. No one could power bomb him!
The 50 Shades reveal was top notch. Three hours? Every week? On top of Raw? Good luck, my man.
That Sting gif made me try not to laugh at work so hard my cheeks are sore.
Maybe in late 2020 when we get to 2000 and Brad Armstrong gets told to act more like his brother turns into Dirt Mall Road Dogg, maybe by then you will believe in The Armstrong Curse.
I’m 100% positive that El Dandy of this time frame (particularly at Souled Out) was the inspiration for the character Nacho.
