Pay-Per-View Rewind of: WCW Halloween Havoc 1995 29/10/1995 Match 1 Part 1 by AverageMansReviews - Spoiler Alarm!

Pay-Per-View Rewind of: WCW Halloween Havoc 1995 29/10/1995 Match 1 Part 1 by AverageMansReviews - Spoiler Alarm!

On rotation: if you have been viewing my WCW Nitro content I did make a decision to watch this pay-per-view, but the next pay-per-view I have already chosen we are heading to the land of WWF actually by today it is better known as WWF/WWE.

Basic walk-through of this event:

Opening sequence to this pay-per-view: obviously it is horrid based within a nutshell The Dungeon of Doom's The Giant vs. the WCW Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan and the two monster trucks: I just wanted to point out this is/was highly creative and engaging.

* Tony Schiavone & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel": welcome us to this event and then gets straight on talking about The Dungeon of Doom's The Giant vs. the WCW Heavyweight Champion Hulk Hogan in not one but two matches tonight; the first being a Sumo Monster Truck Match and then the second match is for the WCW Championship in a Single Match [we see footage of these two competitors essentially jousting in these Monster Truck on the top of this building.] Incoming information "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair has been attacked by Flyin' Brian & "The Enforcer" Arn Anderson which puts doubt over his tag team match tonight against them with the WCW US Heavyweight Champion Sting. Schiavone sets things rolling onto our first match sending it to video package.

* Video package of how we came to be here in our first match/match slot: likewise this is/was excellently put together with excellent voice-over and informative as well.

* David Penzer: Ring announcer says the stipulations and then introduces the competitors.

Warning: there is flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/choking

Match/Stipulations: Johnny B. Badd vs. the WCW World Television Champion "The 13 Million Dollar Man" Diamond Dallas Page [with Diamond Doll & Max Muscle:] Singles Match for the WCW Television Championship

Match Attributes:

Match Quality: 7/10

Match Slot Storyline: 7/10

Crowd Participation: 7/10

On Commentary: Tony Schiavone & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel" 8/10

Satisfying Conclusion: 7/10

Recommend Watch: 7/10

Match Total: 43/60 - this match/match slot is good.

Comments: as you can clearly see this is a good opening to this pay-per-view, we get an update on both of these situations I have already mentioned as it relates to Flair and sting, The Giant and Hogan; including later on explaining or making reference to"Mean Gene" Okerlund explaining the rules of this Sumo Monster Truck Match, but Schiavone repeating them.] But on to the match itself, Schiavone says that Nick Patrick is one of the finest referee's in our sport [I was thinking I would just leave that here for the older generation, because he wasn't and conveniently I can tell you why next.] Bad performs this backslide pin, Patrick slides in to see the near shoulder first begins the count, doesn't look at the far shoulder, moves more around to see both shoulders still counting, and no idea why because as Heenan will point out "his shoulders are not down!" and to back up Heenan here there is more than enough here to say Heenan is correct.

Basic Result:  Johnny B. Badd is the new WCW World Television Champion

Basic walk-through of this event:

* Tony Schiavone & Bobby "The Brain" Heenan/"Wiesel": Commentary talk about what they had just seen over video replays with "He's A Bad Man" Johnny B. Badd's theme music "Don't mess with Johnny B. Badd [with Torn.] They are on screen; talking more about the main event match between The Giant vs. Hogan for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship Match and Sumo Monster Truck Match.

* David Penzer: Ring announcer says the stipulations and then introduces the competitors.
