Worst in the World: World War 3: WCW's Most Unwatchable Match Type (Part 2: 1997-1998)

(Special thanks to Frost for suggesting these matches. If you'd like to see a match covered on the Worst in the World, leave a comment down below.)

Last week, I began this look at World War 3, WCW's attempt to establish a signature battle royal match (their own Royal Rumble, essentially), by looking at the 1995 and 1996 editions of the match. The 1995 match is a chaotic, cluttered, unfocused, and unwatchable mess of a match that knocked off the infamous Akira Maeda/Andre the Giant match that devolved into a shoot as the new Worst in the World. The 1996 match is a slightly less (just slightly) chaotic, cluttered, unfocused, and unwatchable mess of a match that I put in the bottom 15 of the list. Two of the bottom 15 matches in this series that consists of 216 matches (soon to be 218) are World War 3 matches. But, I am a completionist, so let's go through the final two World War 3 matches WCW ever put on.

1997

Like 1996, the 1997 edition of World War 3 would see the winner of the 60-man battle royal earning a shot at the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, which was currently held by Hollywood Hogan. Unlike last year, however, the winner did not get that match at any pay-per-view they wanted. They would instead have it at SuperBrawl VIII next year. Let's get into this.

Michael Buffer reads the rules and clarifies that just leaving the ring & hitting the floor, regardless of if they went over the top rope or not, is an elimination. Thank. God. They can still switch rings without hitting the floor, but at least with this rule, you can still tell who's in the match. The participants in the match enter as follows:

1. Diamond Dallas Page
2. Ray Traylor (the former Big Bubba)
3. Alex Wright, accompanied by Debra McMichael
4. Disco Inferno
5. Meng
6. Villano IV
7. Villano V
8. Chris Benoit
9. Fit Finlay
10. La Parka
11. Steven Regal
12. Rocco Rock
13. Johnny Grunge
14. Dave Taylor
15. Ultimo Dragon
16. Norman Smiley
17. Louie Spicolli
18. Hector Garza
19. Lizmark Jr.
20. The Giant, who has a broken thumb
21. Chris Adams
22. Greg Valentine
23. Yuji Nagata
24. Chris Jericho
25. Juventud Guerrera
26. Wrath, accompanied by James Vandenberg (Father James Mitchell/The Sinister Minister)
27. Stevie Ray
28. Booker T (both members of Harlem Heat were accompanied by Jacqueline)
29. Rick Steiner
30. Scott Steiner (both Steiners were accompanied by Ted DiBiase)
31. Jim Duggan
32. Hugh Morrus
33. Lex Luger
34. Ernest "The Cat" Miller
35. Brad Armstrong
36. Silver King
37. Mortis (Chris Kanyon under a mask)
38. The Barbarian
39. Eddie Guerrero
40. Damien (not 666 in WCW, I guess)
41. Prince Iaukea
42. Barry Darsow (Demolition Smash)
43. Dean Malenko
44. John Nord (The Berserker in the WWF)
45. Kendall Windham
46. El Dandy (who are you to doubt him?)
47. Rey Mysterio Jr.
48. Steve McMichael
49. Ciclope
50. The Renegade
51. Chavo Guerrero Jr.
52. Super Calo
53. Glacier
54. Bobby Blaze
55. Buff Bagwell
56. Scott Hall
57. Curt Hennig (Mr. Perfect)
58. Randy Savage
59. Vincent (Virgil)
60. Kevin Nash...?

At least, it's supposed to be Kevin Nash, but he doesn't come out with the rest of the nWo, who all come out together alongside Miss Elizabeth & Rick Rude. The match starts and we instantly get a split screen. Like with the first two matches, I'll write down whatever I see or whatever the commentators say happened. There are only three commentators (Tony Schiavone, Bobby Heenan, and Mike Tenay) for all three rings instead of two for each ring, so I have a feeling there are going to be some eliminations I miss. Hector Garza is the first man eliminated, being thrown over the top rope by The Giant in Ring #3 almost immediately. He gets eliminated so fast that the commentators don't even acknowledge it, and never do. The Giant picks up five more eliminations quickly, tossing Lizmark Jr., Louie Spicolli, Disco Inferno, and both Villanos out of the ring in quick succession. We then get another way WCW fixed the issue of the match being too chaotic to follow by switching from the triple split screen to making one of the rings full-screen at times. La Parka's the next man out in Ring #3, getting thrown out by Meng. The Public Enemy & Norman Smiley try to triple-team Meng and eliminate him, only for Smiley to end up getting tossed out of the ring. A miscommunication by the Public Enemy nearly gets Rocco Rock eliminated before both men get superkicked out of the ring by Meng. Already, this is so much better than the two previous World War 3 matches because I can actually follow what's happening.

Over in Ring #1, Scott Hall proves why you can, in fact, doubt El Dandy, as he picks him up and dumps him out of the ring fairly easily. Buff Bagwell picks up the next elimination, sending a charging Bobby Blaze out of the ring. Cut to Ring #2, where Silver King & Ernest Miller try to eliminate Stevie Ray. Lex Luger joins in to try and help, but Stevie Ray fights out and survives. Scott Steiner runs over to join in on the Stevie Ray targeting, but Booker T runs over to make the save. Harlem Heat then teams up to eliminate Brad Armstrong & Silver King. Booker then picks up another elimination, suplexing Damien onto the ropes before knocking him out of the ring with a Harlem Side Kick. Man, most of the luchadors (i.e. anyone that's not Mysterio, Juventud, or a Guerrero) didn't get anything in this match. I know a lot of them were just there to pad the numbers, but like...did they all have to spend less time than 46-year-old Greg Valentine did? They can't even outlast John Nord?

Still in Ring #2, Diamond Dallas Page chucks Prince Iaukea out of the ring before tipping Yuji Nagata out of the ring. Wrath & Mortis team up to eliminate The Renegade, only for Mortis to tip Wrath out as well. At some point, while the camera is focused on Ring #1, Chris Jericho gets eliminated. Meanwhile, the nWo teams up to push Kendall Windham out of the ring, only for Rey Mysterio to nearly eliminate Scott Hall, but the rest of the nWo makes the save. Randy Savage almost tossed Mysterio out right after, but Mysterio also survives. Greg Valentine is the next person eliminated, getting dumped out by DDP & Glacier, with Chris Adams the next to go, getting knocked out by Steven Regal. Fit Finlay gets tossed out by Dave Taylor before Chris Benoit & DDP nearly brawl themselves out of the ring. Alex Wright picks up the next elimination, dropkicking Dave Taylor out of the ring before DDP & Dean Malenko clothesline Benoit out of the ring. Dean Malenko then gets karate kicked out of the ring by Ernest Miller.

Over in Ring #1, Hugh Morrus backdrops Jim Duggan out of the ring, while the Barbarian tosses Ernest Miller out of Ring #2. The Barbarian goes out right after, getting clotheslined out by DDP. Back over in Ring #1, Rey Mysterio eliminates Eddie Guerrero, while Randy Savage & Scott Hall toss Hugh Morrus out of the ring. Savage then teams up with Curt Hennig to eliminate Mysterio. Ray Traylor & Barry Darsow also get eliminated at some point. Back over in Ring #3, Meng tosses Steve McMichael out of the ring, while The Giant survives a double team from Alex Wright & Mortis before sending both men out of the ring. Scott Steiner gets eliminated from Ring #1 off-screen while The Giant & Meng, the last two men in Ring #3, brawl. With Steiner's elimination, the nWo stands alone in Ring #1, while Lex Luger dumps Stevie Ray out of the ring. Back in Ring #3, The Giant stands tall, dropkicking Meng out of the ring. It's down to the final 10 as everyone merges into one ring; The Giant, DDP, Luger, Booker T, Rick Steiner, Savage, Hall, Hennig, Bagwell, and the cream of the crop...Vincent. No joke, in a match with 60 men in it, VINCENT makes the final 10. Wild.

The nWo refuses to leave Ring #1, forcing everyone in Ring #2 to run into Ring #1. Everyone brawls as The Giant also makes his way into Ring #1. DDP hits the Diamond Cutter on Vincent, leaving him for The Giant to kick him out of the ring. Everyone pairs off while The Giant stays in the corner. Booker T & Rick Steiner are the next to go, with Booker getting thrown out by Hennig while Savage & Bagwell team up to eliminate Steiner. With the numbers in their favor, the nWo tries to gang up on Luger, only for The Giant to run over and shove Bagwell out of the ring. Hennig & Luger end up dragging each other out of the ring as well, leaving Giant, DDP, Savage, and Hall as the final four. Savage takes the fight to DDP while The Giant corners Hall. DDP fights back and calls for the Diamond Cutter, but Savage blocks it with a lawbreaker and hits a bodyslam. Meanwhile, The Giant picks up Hall and slams him. Savage goes to the top rope for the elbow drop, but The Giant gets in his way to block it. Savage dives at The Giant, but The Giant catches him with a bearhug. Savage fights out of the hold, only for DDP to hit the Diamond Cutter. DDP tries to roll Savage out, only for The Giant to block him so he can chokeslam him...and then roll him out of the ring.

Now outnumbered, Hall retreats into Ring #2 before he points to the entranceway. The nWo's music hits, but it's not Kevin Nash, it's Hollywood Hogan, who runs down to Ring #2. Hall & Hogan enter Ring #1 together and brawl with DDP & The Giant. Hogan bodyslams The Giant before taking the fight to DDP, dropping him crotch first onto the top rope. Hall turns his attention The Giant, who picks him up in a bearhug. Hogan goes over to help, only for The Giant to grab him as well for a double bear hug. Suddenly, a man in a Sting mask descends from the rafters. Based on the fact that he is at least half a foot taller than Sting and has long light brown hair, it's pretty obvious that this is Kevin Nash and not Sting.

This makes the commentators look very stupid when they act like that is actually Sting. Hogan throws DDP out of the ring before he runs out of the ring and away from the fake Sting. Everything I've read (Wikipedia, Cagematch.net, The Internet Wrestling Database) says Hogan was the 60th entrant, and the commentators act like he is, so I guess he's eliminated. The fake Sting smashes The Giant with his baseball bat, knocking him out of the ring, giving Scott Hall the win and the title shot at SuperBrawl...except that gets delayed because of how the Starrcade match between Hogan & Sting ends, forcing them to book a rematch at SuperBrawl, so Hall gets his title shot at Uncensored. The fake Sting takes gets in the ring and stands across the ring from Hall, only to take off his mask and reveal he is, in fact, Kevin Nash. Hogan DDTs DDP at ringside before the rest of the nWo runs down to celebrate. Hogan drags DDP into the ring to hit him with a Diamond Cutter to close the show.

The Verdict

I was so ready to put this match a lot higher because I actually thought the majority of the match was fairly well done. Yes, it's still super cluttered and there are still some very obvious issues (there are multiple times during the split screen where they show one ring on two different screens), but this was far easier to follow than the previous two matches, and once they get down to the final 10, the crowd is legit hot for the nWo vs WCW angle. But of course, WCW found a way to squander this. The ending of this is super convoluted & messy, with a very obvious Kevin Nash pretending to be Sting and having the commentators actually sell it like he's really Sting. It's really dumb. An otherwise better-than-expected edition of a bad match type, bogged down by a rough ending.

1998

And so, we have reached the finale of this look back at World War 3. The final World War 3 match took place in 1998 at what was also the final World War 3 pay-per-view. The winner would once again receive a shot at the WCW World Heavyweight Championship, now held by Goldberg, at that year's Starrcade. Like the previous year, this edition of the match brought a new rule with it, as pinfalls & submissions would now result in an elimination. They never show this happening, so I have no idea why they added this rule. The entrants are as follows:

1. Alex Wright
2. Bobby Blaze
3. Barry Darsow (now the evil golfer Mr. Hole-in-One...this was a real thing WCW did...in 1998)
4. Chavo Guerrero Jr.
5. Chip Minton
6. Chris Adams
7. Chris Benoit
8. Ciclope
9. Damien (still no 666)
10. Perry Saturn
11. The Disciple (Ed Leslie gimmick #18)
12. Disco Inferno

60. And finally...Glacier

The match starts with the focus on Ring #1, where everyone brawl while Scott Hall stays in the corner and uses referee Mickie Jay as a human shield. Immediately, you can tell that WCW has decided to eliminate the split screen entirely, instead only focusing on one ring at a time. There's also a tally in the bottom left corner with how many people are left in the match, but it'll go down at times without the commentators mentioning an elimination, so it's not much help in terms of keeping track of eliminations. The first eliminations come from Ring #3, where Kevin Nash dumps out Norman Smiley, Super Calo, Lodi, and Lizmark Jr. in quick succession. Prince Iaukea also gets thrown out by someone (can't tell who) before Nash picks up another elimination, tossing Scott Putski out of the ring. Evidence of how far Glacier has fallen, he gets eliminated by Lenny Lane. Tokyo Magnum gets dumped out by La Parka & Silver King before Mike Enos picks up a double elimination, sending Lane & Johnny Swinger out of the ring when they charge at him. Nash continues to make quick work of Ring #3, tossing Kenny Kaos out before tossing Silver King (not El Dandy like the commentators say) out of the ring.

Over in Ring #1, Bobby Duncum Jr. clotheslines Chris Jericho out of the ring, but takes himself out in the process. At some point, Vincent gets tossed out of Ring #3. Back at Ring #3, Van Hammer dropkicks Mike Enos out of the ring, but then gets big booted out by Kevin Nash, leaving Nash as the only man in Ring #3. Over in Ring #2, Psychosis goes for a crossbody off the top onto Scott Hall, but Hall catches him and tosses him out of the ring. Bobby Eaton gets kicked out by Buddy Lee Parker. Kanyon tries to innovate some new offense on Kidman, seemingly setting up for a powerbomb or a piledriver from a superplex position on the top rope, but Kidman powers out and throws Kanyon out of the ring. At the same time, Wrath tosses Kaz Hayashi out of the ring.

Back in Ring #1, The Disciple & Horace Hogan eliminate each other before The Giant dumps Chavo Guerrero out of the ring. With seven men left in Ring #1, everyone gangs up on The Giant, but The Giant is able to power out and throw them all away from him. Over in Ring #2, we're told someone is eliminated, but never who. Scott Steiner tosses Juventud Guerrera out of the ring before Rey Mysterio Jr. gets eliminated. With 20 men left, everyone merges into Ring #2. Before they even get in the middle ring, Perry Saturn & Ernest Miller end up brawling on the outside, causing both of them to get eliminated. A crossbody from Chavo Guerrero ends up taking himself & Alex Wright out of the ring., with Eddie Guerrero & Disco Inferno getting tossed out soon after. Kidman is the next to go, getting gorilla pressed out of the ring by The Giant.

After a long gap between eliminations, Stevie Ray is the next to go, getting dumped out by Lex Luger. Mongo dumps Scott Norton out of the ring next, only to get tossed out by Nash right after. Suddenly, Bam Bam Bigelow emerges from the crowd, running into the ring...only to get immediately swarmed and kicked out of the ring. Goldberg runs down and starts to brawl with Bigelow as security tries to break them up. Meanwhile, Nash tosses Steiner out of the ring. Wrath also gets eliminated at some point. Chris Benoit & Dean Malenko team up to eliminate Booker T as we're down to the final seven; Luger, Nash, Konnan, Benoit, Malenko, The Giant, and Hall. 

Everyone pairs off, with Hall dodging a Konnan attack and sending Konnan out of the ring. Nash directs traffic, leading an attack on The Giant, ending with The Giant being eliminated by all five men. Benoit & Malenko try to eliminate Hall, but end up being the next to go, with Benoit dumped out by Nash & Luger while Hall eliminates Malenko. It's down to the final three, Nash, Luger & Hall trade blows. Luger floors Nash with a forearm shot before giving Hall one of his own. Luger picks up Hall for the Torture Rack, clearly learning nothing from the 1996 match. Nash runs over and hits a big boot, sending Hall & Luger out of the ring, and giving Nash the win.

The Verdict

Still an improvement over the first two World War 3 matches, but I would still put it below the 1997 match. Not having any split screen does make the match easier to focus on, but you definitely miss a lot of eliminations. Again, better than the first two, but still below the 1997 match.
