NikateeN...why is it that you always seem to upload a new video on the days I need it most; when I’m feeling down and just need SOMETHING to feel better? Thanks, man. Much support; you got an awesome channel.
Loved Bash at the Beach's designs. Something off topic but on the topic at same time about WCW beach events though. Did you hear Club Levela in Panama City Beach FL is closed down for good. It's sad to see it each year when I go down there for vacation and think of those WCW spring break specials they did in it. And sadly, it's nothing more than a memory now.
Damn that’s sad. It’s funny you mention that, I was watching an episode of 90 Day Fiancé recently and they were at Club Le Vela and I got all excited and started shouting “Nitro used to go there for Spring Break!” and of course my wife shot me a confused look. Can’t believe they are closing for good, that’s sad.
@@NikateeN Yeah. The rumor mills for it are wild. Some say it was starting to go down hill in maintenance and others say it was because the mayor wanted to shut it down in the first place and the hurricane was a perfect way to do it. I know crazy right.!!!
I know I've said it numerous times before.. but I am so glad you're back man. We need to get you with the other wrestling TH-cam heavyweights for some collabs
Great content as always! I've been a big fan of your channel for a long time. You cover things that most channels don't and your voice is easy on the ears. Thanks man ✊
Bash at the Beach is such a good gimmick ppv. So much fun to be had with the beach theme. 1995 is my favorite because it's so unique and fun. Must have been difficult to make that happen. WWE Summerslam 2020 should do the exact same thing that 1995 Bash at the Beach did. Speaking of Summerslam, that would be a great showcase to see, 92', 98', 00', 07', 08'
Great video. Watching these WCW Arena Showcases always get sad towards the end. Due to them starting off with awesome and really unique sets, finishing with the same monotone one they used towards the end of WCW. But I'm happy this video ended with highlighting AEW's arenas.
WCW has something truly special and unique, but in the end they wanted to look like the WWF and it completely ruined that uniqueness. I was actually impressed with the AEW version of Bash at the Beach. I heard quite a few complaints about it but I thought it looked damn good!
@@NikateeN Agreed, WCW innovated impressive entrance set ups. WWE's arenas before the Monday Night Wars were usually very basic and it took a long time for them to be creative with their settings. WCW's entrance set up in 2000 was a visual reminder of how far they fell.
Personally AEWs Bash at the Beach branding has been my favorite. I think the Miami Vice design and bringing back the props to decorate the stage while still keeping the modern layout of their regular shows works perfectly as a throwback to a classic show without feeling too dated.
I love the logo design, but for their pay per views I wish they would totally revamp the entrance way. Something completely different from the two tunnels look.
Can't wait what they'll have this wednesday at Fyter Fest (which also has a beach theme)! What they had last year was the same level of crappyness like WCW Bash at the Beach in 2000 just with random beach toys thrown besides the ramp ... Or what about doing it at the beach again, but not at daytime, but when the sun goes down. That would look epic! I'm sick of events in arenas that all look the same ...
Yeah, a beach event would be awesome! I like the outdoor events that starts in the afternoon and end at night, it’s cool to see the soon slowly go down during the event. Road Wild was also cool to watch because of this.
HDX that’s so cool! I heard a lot of complaints about the set, but I thought it looked great! The fact that they added props shows that truly understand what helped make the event special.
I sometimes wonder if WWE chose to keep logos out of the ring to prevent creating a surface that could become slick from sweat? It rarely happens, but I can see some paint creating a slick surface.
It’s possible but it’s harder for me to showcase anything not on the WWE Network. It ends up being a long search for material and the accuracy may vary because of this.
Not sure, I hope to. The last one took me almost a month to research, gather pics, and edit. In the meantime I wasn’t working on any other videos, which makes them truly time consuming. It would mean probably at least a month with no videos while I work on it. Anytime I take that long to drop something I start hearing lots of complaints so I’ve been trying to do videos that I can realistically drop quicker.
@@NikateeN understandable. Well if you find the time and are able to I'd love to see it. The scott hall showcase was actually my favorite video of yours.
Me too. I was excited to see it return, but sad that they didn’t take true advantage and turn it into a PPV. Maybe legal limitations prevented it? I hope they keep it and run with it however.
NikateeN I think you’re right about the legality of using it as a PPV... I know it was a messy process for them to acquire the name... hopefully they can get there eventually!
AEW should do the Bash at the Beach PPV instead of a special with sand and props a bit cheesy but since WWE are to lazy to use designs and recycle designs I’ll set AEW apart and give them the nostalgia vibe and uniqueness I hope they get hog wild and stampede or hopefully starcade

Like Neil Peart wrote in "Lakeside Park," "Though it's just a memory, some memories last forever... "
The Young Bucks threw MJF into the pool on the cruise, which is a classic Bash at Beach trope. Can't wait to see that set in the AEW game!
Actually that was Spring Breakout for WCW. Bash at the Beach didn’t feature any water.
I know I've said it numerous times before.. but I am so glad you're back man. We need to get you with the other wrestling TH-cam heavyweights for some collabs
Thanks man! It’s good to be creating again. I truly love the creating of the videos, but most of all I enjoy the conversations with you guys.
And we enjoy the conversations with you also.
Great content as always! I've been a big fan of your channel for a long time. You cover things that most channels don't and your voice is easy on the ears. Thanks man ✊

Will we see a Smackdown showcase in the future?
Yes.

95 is definitely cool, a wrestling event on an actual beach! WCW was truly innovative.
The good ole days. Wrestling is ass juice now day's compared to 90s and early 00s . I'm so glad I found your channel.
Thanks man! I agree, it’s just not what it used to be.
Great video!
I'm still hoping to see an AAA:heroes del Ring Review
Always love to see these arena showcase videos
Thanks a lot Tim!
@@NikateeN
No prob 👍👍
under the logo there is a shark fin under it
Knowing WCW, they probably WOULD have brought their own sand to BATB ‘95

I'd love to see a Royal Rumble and/or a Money in the Bank arena showcase video as they're my favorite PPV at #2 & #3 respectively behind WrestleMania.
I did Royal Rumble.
I'm glad there are others as nerdy as I am 👍 I sure do miss fun and unique set design
Will we see WCW Saturday Night
Once WWE Network decides to upload all episodes, yes! Been wanting to cover that one for a while.
NikateeN it starts with the 70s
Are you gonna do WWE Unforgiven Sometime in The Future?
That would be a good one, some cool designs there! I’ll add it to my list.
This was probably my favorite arena to play in WCW/NWO Revenge, piledriving and powerbombing people on the wooden dock ramp lol
Yes! I have so many memories of that game. I don’t think I’ve ever played a game as much as I’ve played that one over the years.
I Love This Series! Please do More Arena Showcases!
Thanks! Got some more episodes coming soon!
Great video man loved it!
Thanks!

@@NikateeN the Spring Break WCW Nitros were always great.
I always loved Bash At The Beach, it’s one of my favorite events of the summer :)
And I was at the AEW BatB event in the building :)
Right on! How did it look in person? I thought the set looked pretty cool on TV.
@@NikateeN It look great in person :)
They put a lot of effort on the beach aesthetic.
HDX that’s so cool! I heard a lot of complaints about the set, but I thought it looked great! The fact that they added props shows that truly understand what helped make the event special.

It rarely happens, but I can see some paint creating a slick surface.
That’s a good point. It can also be distract from the action if not done correctly.
can't wait till you do the big 4 WWE PPV's
I’ve done 2 of them already, and SummerSlam is currently in the works.
I miss KOTR
Do Survivor Series
Do Great balls of fire next!!
I'm so glad bash finally got a new, more in depth review
I love putting on bash at the beach and passing out
Awesomeness please do more please thanks like wwe extreme rules
Any chance that we're getting a retrospecting of TNA's/Impact Wrestling's Impact Zone from Universal Studios?
It’s possible but it’s harder for me to showcase anything not on the WWE Network. It ends up being a long search for material and the accuracy may vary because of this.
Great video bro!
Thanks!
What about "Great American Bash Arena Showcase" or "In Your House Arena Showcase"?
Both of those are on my list.
Cheesy ppv’s nxt used. Fyter Fest is way better
Oh yeaaah that 96 hostile takeover music theme, beautiful.
One of my favs!
you ever gonna do another attire showcase

@@NikateeN understandable. Well if you find the time and are able to I'd love to see it. The scott hall showcase was actually my favorite video of yours.
DJ Cholewinski thanks a lot. I’d definitely like to do more if the time permits.
I’d like to see Fully Loaded or Unforgiven possibly No Mercy as well
I plan do cover all of those, stay tuned!
NikateeN definitely bro this arena showcase is a cool concept.
This feels like when you re-reviewed WCW/NWO Revenge.
I seem to come back and re-visit my favorites.
Hey man I know this isn’t video game related but some day can you cover your favorite wrestler returns? (From any promotion) Maybe a top 5?
I could manage a top 5.
NikateeN thank you bro! I can’t wait to hear your favorites!
Can you redo Starrcade?
You mean to include the WWE Starrcade events?
NikateeN Yes.
Can you do SummerSlam next
SummerSlam is in the works, it’s going to be loooooooong.
Feels weird to hear you talk about the AEW stuff but I loved it anyways
Weird? You mean refreshing
I interested small details in wrestling and I love your content
Thanks a lot!
The first (and hopefully not the last) time AEW was mentioned on this channel.
Damn..
Can you do an NXT Takeover arena showcase video?
I can add that to my list.
Now that I look at it, I agree 1999 BATB had the best set imo. 96-99 had the best sets
Such an iconic event theme... I hope if AEW does this event in the future they really take it over the top...
Me too. I was excited to see it return, but sad that they didn’t take true advantage and turn it into a PPV. Maybe legal limitations prevented it? I hope they keep it and run with it however.
NikateeN I think you’re right about the legality of using it as a PPV... I know it was a messy process for them to acquire the name... hopefully they can get there eventually!
Are you on Twitter?
I’m not.
Actually he is, but he stopped using it like 3 years ago
Eric Rockman am I? Lol, I don’t even remember having one. I don’t use social media other than TH-cam.
NikateeN @NikateeNvideos isn’t that your Twitter account?
Bash at the Beach 1998 was my favorite..1999 was good but felt too dark for my liking..
Twitter user @AutisticPretzel has alot of the texture for these arenas.
I hope AEW will bring back Halloween Havoc in the foreseeable future 😁
I believe that is still owned by WWE. I wish somebody would revive it though.
NikateeN or WWE Either way
I like the 1999 vibe
Huge Marge Simpson vibes in this one.
Bash At The Beach > SummerSlam
2:49 🤨🤨???
AEW should do the Bash at the Beach PPV instead of a special with sand and props a bit cheesy but since WWE are to lazy to use designs and recycle designs I’ll set AEW apart and give them the nostalgia vibe and uniqueness I hope they get hog wild and stampede or hopefully starcade
First notification squad
Man you’re always on it!
Been watching for over 6 years just not on this channel
Stonecold Parkin thanks for the support man!
Day 69422 for wrestling revolution 3d
One day! It’ll be a while though.
@@NikateeN even though the game is pretty much the size of a N64 cartridge there is so much to it
@@NikateeN be sure to play the PC version with a controller
Phenomenal One will do!
Cough cough, was that you?!?
