Ben Lorentz I would agree completely, but I have a fondness for Eddy Guerrero. I loved undertaker and rikishi as well as SCSA, but Eddy Guerrero had a certain je ne sais quoi that made me a long time fan. RIP
James hit the nail on the head though, Slam Masters and Wrestlemania Arcade were the best Wrestling games of the bunch, and the way James got sucker punched at the end there, the commissioner is sure to give James a Hardcore rematch in Wrestling Games Round 2.
I’m confused by his not recognizing any of the people. All but two for sure were in WWF in the 80s and 90s. Possibly the last one too. Unsure who the bottom right one is. But it’s Dustin Rhodes (Goldust), Vader, Rick Rhoode, Ric Flair, Johnny B Badd (Marc Mero), Rick Steiner, Sting, Brian Pilman, Scott Steiner, Ron Simmons (Farooq), Ricky Steamboat, and I’m unsure who the last one is. I think it’s Greg valentine… but not sure
@@MegaManXPoweredUp Imagine if he did. Hey someone should show him HSR so he can show his girls! Mine are almost same age and they love it. I love it. You love it.
It's even refferenced in the cartoon "The Best Decemberween Ever", when Homestar Runner is looking through possible presents for Strong Bad, one of the things he looks at is the Tag Team Wrestling cartridge.
Nobody else then me insanely impressed that he made an entire cartridge costume complete with the sticker for the game on it? JUST for one AVGN episode ? I mean come on that's crazy impressive.
Yes, I'm gonna be THAT guy, but ... I really think James should focus on writing more witty remarks and clever jokes into the episodes. I know it's hard, but he *always* had tons of that in the earlier episodes (up until #80 or so), that's what got me into them. But the newer ones either focus on a storyline or just finding new ways to curse. I still watch them, but without much enthusiasm. Don't get me wrong, I'm still thankful for all the enjoyment James brought me over the past 10 years.
@@quentinkaasa47 Cause that guy is a total wrestling fan since childhood. Been following those Monday night wars.. hes done incredible with those videos
And way before he became a magician and bought a cobraman and stole a cheesy ska bands tram and then the commander of that band fought cobraman in a parody of that imfamous star trek fight scene
The fact that you still rake in about 1 milli views average per video shows testament to the quality and consistency of your work. Amazing work for real, I don’t say thank you enough.
AVGN has still got it man, a lot of my favourites are from the early days too but the fact that he can put out quality episodes a decade after the show started is incredible. How many other TV shows are still producing quality content during Season 10? Hardly any even make it that far, and when they do they have the Fonz jumping sharks and shit.
@@wolfetteplays8894 Considering that one of HR's most famous fans is the writer of one of the most popular Broadway plays of the past decade about one of America's often overlooked Founding Fathers and also has two Disney films under his belt and the fact Guitar Hero II included Trogdor as a bonus song, I would hardly call it obscure.
The nerds attitude in this felt like one of the avgn classics especially at the end. I really feel like the quicker they come out, the better they are.
@@Seiko180 They should be in a game together. I've read that they were supposedly rivals, so it's weird not to feature them together so we can actually have them fight.
So I'm guessing in about 10 years or so the nerd is gonna review the REAL worst there is, the worst there was, and the worst there ever will be WWE 2K20
I feel like James is trying too hard to be angry in this episode. In the older episodes he would simply sound annoyed and mutter negative sarcastic things about the game that he is going to play and become angrier and angrier while he played it, but in this video he is screaming like a maniac right from the beginning. It was pretty funny, but it felt a bit unnatural.
Are we still gonna get a Halloween episode this year? I mean, I'll take this as a Halloween episode if not considering that the Nerd played 6 fucking LJN games. That's probably enough horror for him.
I picture Rikishi farting on Kurt Angle with Rikishi's butt cheeks clapping and see the look on Kurt Angle's face when he smells it and when Kurt Angle rolls over, he pukes all over the mat in close-up slow motion replay.
Raw was actually the best wrestling game on SNES if you were a wrestling fan. The grappling system allowed you to do a bunch of moves, and all of the character’s special moves were included.
As soon as i saw that in the video i was like holy shit no way!!!! Then immediately googled and and sure enough that is the origin of his name!! Fucking Amazing.
clicked on this video thinking it was one of the old ones from a year ago then looked down at when it was published and realized just how blessed i am to havea new avgn
Damn it's so great to have AVGN episodes. But what is even better is that I didn't expected one so close to the other. And I mean we got to have a Halloween episode, right? Anyway, I have followed AVGN since I was in highschool (before TH-cam) and now I am married and seeing the nerd always brings me back... To the past.
10/10 great episode! Classic AVGN really shines with this one in my opinion! Never seen him talk about wrestling before. It probably helps to have a fresh new subject to talk on.
+djhenyo The full title of the game is WCW VS NWO World Tour. So far I only unlocked 2 secret characters: Macho Man Randy Savage and Glacier; I haven't come across a character that does that special move yet.

I feel like those games are a bit overrated, bad blocky graphics, slow gameplay, awful versions of entrances, there has been a lot better games on better consoles since then, and I'm not even one to like modern games or modern systems, but n64 didn't really make wrestling games look good.
dannyboi451 Matt and Mike Chapman, collectively known as "The Brothers Chaps" reference and parody old school video games on the Homestar Runner site, and have in interviews explained that Strong Bad's name came from Tag Team Wrestling

That was a sweet game back in the day
+djhenyo
The full title of the game is WCW VS NWO World Tour.
So far I only unlocked 2 secret characters: Macho Man Randy Savage and Glacier; I haven't come across a character that does that special move yet.
Wrestlemania 2000 was probably the best n64 wrestling imo
WCW VS NWO Revenge with my main man Han Zo Man?
Stone Cold's Character With Hulk Hogan's parody theme? THATS AWESOME!!!
@@matthewburr774 The intro.
I love how he says we didn’t know any better because we had no other options. It’s so funny and so true
Legit one of the best episodes in a long time. Excellent job, man.
My thoughts exactly! Never count him out!
CHERNOBYL STUDIOS HOOWEE YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN! AND IF ANYONE COMMENTS SAYING THERE WAS TOO MUCH BULLSHIT, I'M GONNA LAY THE _SMACKDOWN_ ON THEIR SOR- *hack* *cough* god damn that is hard to do...
I got radiation from reading your name
The crow one was pretty good
People say this every new episode 🤔
0:27 Stone Cold Steve Austin celebrates his WWF Championship victory in the main event of Wrestlemania 14 over Shawn Michaels *(1998, colorized)*
@Ernesto Rodriguez And the crowd says, "What?"
@@adamuzumaki98 and I say what too..😂😂😂😂..
If I ever became a wrestler I’d go by the great name of Fred Fuchs.
Who
Don't worry I get it..😂😂😂😂😂😂😂...
@@vapaperboi Fred Fuchs..that's who..
I bet money Vince already had that planned at some point before 2003
Nosferatu
I love this guy even more now.
He's a wrestling fan
WCW/NWO Revenge, Wrestlemania 2000, and WWF No Mercy. Those were the best and pinnacle of wrestling games.
Yeah, I was a fan of Smackdown up until then too. Those load times on Smackdown 2, they were horrendous.
I feel like those games are a bit overrated, bad blocky graphics, slow gameplay, awful versions of entrances, there has been a lot better games on better consoles since then, and I'm not even one to like modern games or modern systems, but n64 didn't really make wrestling games look good.
+Swaft is sin I think your assessment is overrated
Swaft is sin WWF NO MERCY WAS GOAT
Radiofloyd wwf no mercy was pretty good closest thing to no mercy I'd say
Dear Strong Bads, How do you win without boxing gloves on?
I was hoping for a Homestar Runner reference, from Nerd, but denied
I was confused when i saw that lol. I wonder if that is wher Matt chapman got the name from
dannyboi451 it is. The Brothers Chaps are old school gamers
I'm talking about the creators of strong bad emails
dannyboi451 Matt and Mike Chapman, collectively known as "The Brothers Chaps" reference and parody old school video games on the Homestar Runner site, and have in interviews explained that Strong Bad's name came from Tag Team Wrestling
6 EPISODES THIS YEAR ALREADY!! AWESOME!!!
Saturday Night SlamMasters was an absolute GEM of a game!
Strong Bads?? Checking da Email! wut?! Checking da email! Dear Strong bad, How do you type with boxing gloves on your hands?
WIIIIIIIIIIDESCREEEEEEEEENNNNNN
CycloneMetal Aw, man! Not from a female.

AVGN dropped a great heel promo near the end of the video.
The Entrance motions of Stone Cold Steve Austin and the theme song in the style of Hulk Hogan
I’ve never came so close to dying of nostalgia more than me hearing the AVGN spout some of my favorite quotes from WWF stars
No video game cartridges were harmed during the filming of this video

I think Johnny B. Badd actually invented "the floss" dance 30 years ago 😂
WCW vs. NWO for the N64 was a fantastic wrestling game.
9:55 that’s best boo sound I’ve ever heard
