@@NoelComiXHulk Hogan got booed on Monday Night Raw this week for his many controversial reasons like union busting, being racist, and that stupid shit he pulled at the RNC last year
I worked on WCW Mayhem (EA/Kodiak). The team loved that game, it was a lot of fun. The multi-player matches were a blast. Goldberg and others visited the studio. Good memories.
I'd love to see Matt cover the original Ultimate Marvel run. Would be topical considering there's a new Ultimate universe that's doing very well. Ultimate Marvel going from arguably the thing that saved Marvel post-bankruptcy and laid the groundwork for the MCU, to a convoluted mess filled to the brim with tasteless deaths, weird subtext, and arguably one of the worst series in comics, Ultimatum. 15 years of this only for Marvel to eventually just pull the plug and transfer over Miles Morales (one of the few bright spots of the later years of the Ultimate universe) and The Maker to mainline Marvel.
JAWNNY SIGHTING?! It's my birthday tomorrow and I just teeted positive for COVID for the first time, but this is actually a GOOD present! (For real though, good vibes for me and my elderly parents would be appreciated.)
JOHN BLUD! Took fucking forever but so glad that Jawnny has been growing in popularity. Dude has always been peak charisma. Also, mandatory DPDUB DPDUB DPDUB!
Somebody else suggested an episode on FEAR 3 and i would also like to know what happened to that game, such a sad fall off, especially considering how great the first game was. Also.... AL?
As a big fan of wrestling and your channel, i have to say i really really appreciate you making this video and specially that little sequence in the beginning. Thank you so much for making this video ❤.
The PS2 thing was always confusing to me. I’d always heard there was a followup game in early development when WCW got bought out but sources seemed to go back and forth over whether it was a port of Backstage Assault or a direct sequel to Mayhem, and I’ve heard both referred to as “WCW 2000.” It’s good to finally have the straight story.
"This wasn't just the worst wrestling game I've ever played, this might be the worst GAME I've ever played. Superman 64 is like Skyrim compared to this..." -DenkOps
I got this game brand new cause I really like Mayhem. Mayhem was a huge step up over Nitro and Thunder. I wanted to like Backstage Assault. The graphics were a downgrade, but thought an all backstage game would be fun. Froze after an hour of progress and could never get it to work again. After seeing how Def Jam Vendetta turned out, really wish WCW could've stuck around long enough to see how a WCW game on that engine would've turned out.
There's a metroidvania game called indivisible. I don't know the full story of what happened, but here's what I do know: 1. It was a kickstarter project at some point, but they ran out of money and closed down before they could add all the goals 2. The studio after the kickstarter but before their closure found a publisher( 505 games) A video on this games development would be nice as I played it before, and it was very unfished. It was clear something happened during development. Thanks!
I just realized this is brand new, so... I hereby request Okage Shadow King, the PS2 rpg that was in development for the 3DO, then 3DO M2, then PS1, before coming out on the PS2

A hefty Skee and also Woah OR MAYBE NOT BROTHER
John Blud appearing on Wha Happun? Or maybe not, brother!
FREE SIDE BREAD BROTHER!
Ironically, Backstage Assault would be a better title for a Vince McMahon documentary
If he didn't hit, you must acquit
unbelievable
Oooofff 😂😅
Jesus man
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It’s amazing you were able to get this interview before Dave Lang’s passing in 2015, props
Matt. Please. His full name is STEVE MU’FUGGIN BLACKMAN - hide your giant robot monsters.
back to the Dojo with you matt!
Kick or be kickin, brother.
He's as cold as ice and he's willing to sacrifice!
(oh God, I didn't know he was gonna put that song in there, amazing)
Ah Acclaim, the final boss of What Happened
EA would like to have a word with you.
Idk, there's a bunch of Laughin' Jokin' Numbnuts who can hold that title
@deathsyth8888 good point and to be fair, both companies are in this video. Throw in Capcom and we would've had the trifecta
I do hope a wha happun on the ecw games happen eventually because acclaim had a stake in ecw
@@thecaptain6520 Titus/Phoenix/bam!: AM I A JOKE TO YOU?!
I didnt expect John Blud here, or maybe i did brother!
I dunno brother, it's a little too early to decide! what do you think Jimmy Hart?
DADDYYYYYYY!
I thought I’d switched to a suggested NL video by accident lmao
Hulk Hogan drained all the fun out of Hulk Hogan, and its all Hulk Hogan's fault.
???
@@NoelComiX No, no. He's got a point.

Petition to have Matt and Johnny talk about Scott Steiner for 3 hours
I love the WrestlingBios bit with Steve Blackman, Amazing.

Jawnny Blud!?!? Oh, we're taking this episode the long way, boys. Oh! Hell! Yeaaaaahhhhh!!!
Don't go talkin bout Steve F'n Blackman, he knows karate and he sees that you've been slackin'
Steve Blackman is the Kenshiro of pro wrestling. Do NOT front on him. Just ask John Layfield....
Another episode where i’ve never heard of the game being What Happun’d but i still watch it anyway
I watch these episodes *because* I've never heard of these games. I love gaining new niche knowledge.
@@That_Lady_Charlie That’s what makes them so fun to learn about
The best kind!
For wrestling fans in the attitude era, this is a huge memory for us lol
One step closer to that OSW/DPW crossover event we're all dreaming of.
JAWNNY SIGHTING?!

Had the title said ft. John Blud I would’ve clicked it 3x faster than I already did! Love those NL boys
Now that Transformers Reactivate has been officially cancelled I'd love to see a video on that game
A wild Jon Blud appeared
Or maybe not, brother
Matt’s doppelgänger yes
GET HIM AN EXTRA MEATBALL ON THE SUB BROTHER
@4:26 We just entered the MUFUGG DOJO PAY RESPECTS TO SENSAI BLACKMAN
The surreality of a video with newLEGACYinc’s John Blud filled with references to OSW from Matt lol
I hope for the day we see a crossover between the OSW boys and John Blud & the Deadlock and/or NewLegacy crews
30 seconds in, see "Scott Steiner," I laugh.
Sensei Blackman would be proud of that mufuggin reference.
This is gonna be a great episode of What Happened?
OR MAYBE IT WON'T DUDE, I DONT KNOW
Ah, time for ano---JAWNNY???
OHHH MYYYY!?!?!?
John Blud guesting on an episode of What Happened?
Skee, and I mean this, Woah
Developing a wrestling game is tough? You lose money?
.....BIG FUCKING DEAL.
oh man i’ve been waiting for this episode for awhile
OR MAYBE I HAVEN’T BROTHER, I DON’T KNOW, IT ALL DEPENDS
I'LL HAVE TO CHECK THE RATINGS WITH BROTHER NIELSON, DUDE!
Not gonna lie, Scott Steiner in Def Jam would be wild locking the Steiner Recliner on Bless
John Blud is the Wood master brother!

I've lost track how many times Acclaim was featured in this series, which, is something that not everybody would want to be acclaimed for.
You got ME at John Blud Subbed AWESOME WORK

Ah yes, Backstage Assault. Aka Edge vs Randy Orton at Wrestlemania 36: The Video Game.
Havent been into wrestling since Ultimate Warrior, but its videos like this that peak my interest. Another banger Matt!

I'd love to see an episode on the Hobbit trilogy. That was a troubled production
Oh wow, I'm surprised that jawny showed up for this. Not only that, we got a twofer!
Matt being a wrestling fan is an awesome discovery for me
When the 43rd President looks in the mirror:
You should make a video on F.E.A.R. 3, the development of that game was particularly disastrous and would make for a great What Happened?
The Boys are BACK IN TOWN!
A 3 from GameInformer? That's like a negative 7 from Meltzer
Wakka-wa-hey-hey!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for everything you do, Matt!
What happened is they didn't add Kurt Angle to the mix
A new What Happened? Sure, I’ll cancel my plans for the next half hour, even though it’s only 15 minutes.
The way I popped when I saw Jawnny pop up lmao, dream collab
Wow, that outro song really unlocked a memory. Haha
Late stage WCW just hurts to remember.
I was just watching some wcw content, great timing matt
Why did the wrestlers in WCW Mayhem hold their arms out like Monty Burns?
Looks like transformers calls to you again
These were pumped out so quickly, that they all kinda had same same syndrome. But most wrestling games were still fun anyways, glitches n all!
The only WCW games worth playing are World Tour and Revenge
yes

“Actual PS2 Graphics!”

I love when my TH-cam world crosses over with each other! I’ve watched Matt since 2011 and found new legacy/deadlock and John blud like a year ago!
I just realized this is brand new, so...

Best episode ever . DPW 4 LIFE
The people demand more wrestling content!
love this series, thanks for keeping at it Matt ♥
SPEAK TO ME, MATT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Destrucity! Me and the Dissciple are taking the dog to hell!
This is the best timing. I literally just got a copy in the mail!
Blackman gets all the memes. Dude was a great stoic straightman to Al Snow's craziness.
Skee. F'n. Woah.
The crossover I never knew I needed!!
My favorite kind of episode; when it’s about a video game I’ve never heard of or am fairly familiar with
Life is good when Matt talks about some wrasslin games.
Here’s some of my childhood games that Matt could use for ‘What Happened’:
40 Winks
Croc: Legend of the Gobbos
Tonic Trouble
Ty the Tasmanian Tiger
THEEEEEE BOOOOOOYYYYYSSSSS AAAAREEE BAAAAAACK IIIIIIINNNNNN TOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNN!!!
Backstage ASSault is a very fitting title for this game.
if you're a nerd who grew up on WCW, you mark out for Scotty Steiner. the siren song of the Big Bad Booty Daddy is inescapable.
You got it here first: McMuscles is indeed willing to sacrifice.
After all this time we finally find out the REAL story on those supposed WCW Mayhem 2 screens. Great reporting here man
Why do I always get a case of the giggles whenever I hear Matt say "WAAAAAAAAAAAAY DOWN"?
No way you got XWF's attorney John Flud in your vid, big congratulations!
Love seeing ol’ Johnny Blud on here, NewLegacyInc and Deadlock are great
Always up to hear wha happuns with bizare as hell wrestling games
SKEEWHOA, is the THE John Blud? Of DPW and New Legacy? Holy crap, dood!
Too sweet!
Do an episode on TNA/Impact Wrestling
THE JOHN FLUD!?!?!?
That don't work for me brother!
BAH GAWD ITS JAWNNY!!!
Matt please make what happened shadow the hedgehog and sonic unleashed
a little Brucey Bonus in my What Happened? well I'll be.
The Steiner Math just didn't add up for this game, tragic.
That don’t work for me, brother lol
Oh my god Voodoo Kin Mafia. I haven’t thought about that in years. TNA is weird man
Damn the crossover I never expected
I popped so hard when DPW John showed up. Hell yeah.🤘
hell yeah John Blud crossover
Steve Blackman 4 Lyfe
