I am hoping for something different as well. How about on the WCW disc, as the 1st match, the tournament final to crown a new Champion between Sting and TV Champion Stunning Steve Austin? It could be introduced after a brief description of Luger vacating the US Title when he won the World Title. Plus, it isn’t included on any other set and involves two of the most iconic superstars ever.
Great to see a new Flair-Steamboat match on here. I’m hoping to see Windham vs. Luger from Chi-town Rumble, Luger vs. Hansen from Halloween Havoc ’90, Rhodes vs. Steamboat from Saturday Night, and anything unreleased of Magnum, Nikita, Wahoo, Flair, Steamboat, Rude, Dustin, and Austin.
I’m hoping for any Magnum TA match except the Tully Blanchard I quit match. Love it. It is one my all time favorites but there are other great Magnum title defenses.

Too bad one WWE U.S Title that won’t be on here is Benoit/Eddie at Vengeace 2003.An excellent match.
I want to see Magnum vs Wahoo, Magnum vs Nikita…and especially his matches against Tully.
Oh wow, that Flair/Steamboat match, I didn’t even know that existed. Good choices so far.
I am guessing Rick Rude vs Sting and Bret vs Page are repeats?
Bret/Page was on Best of Nitro Vol.1
Sting vs Rick Rude was on Best of WCW Clash of the Champions.
Interesting choices so far.
Rick Rude vs Sting from Clash 17 was too short to be anything great. Should’ve picked something else over it. Matches so far are impressive.
Great matches so far. I’m looking forward to the next installment 🙂
Great to see a new Flair-Steamboat match on here. I’m hoping to see Windham vs. Luger from Chi-town Rumble, Luger vs. Hansen from Halloween Havoc ’90, Rhodes vs. Steamboat from Saturday Night, and anything unreleased of Magnum, Nikita, Wahoo, Flair, Steamboat, Rude, Dustin, and Austin.
Hoping for Magnum TA vs. Wahoo McDaniel or Kamala 🙂
I’m hoping for any Magnum TA match except the Tully Blanchard I quit match. Love it. It is one my all time favorites but there are other great Magnum title defenses.
Plus the fact that it’s already been on several releases.
