Becky Lynch: I have two belts Último Dragón: bitch please

3:14 - Fun fact about the J-Crown: among the titles it represented was the *WWF Light-Heavyweight Championship,* which had been introduced by the WWF in 1981 for use by various promotions in Mexico and Japan. In fact that's why the J-Crown was vacated: the WWF recalled the title to finally use in their own promotion in 1997. What this means is that when he was holder of the J-Crown Ultimo Dragon represented & even _defended_ a WWF-branded championship among its other titles on _WCW television in the middle of the Monday Night Wars,_ and *neither company noticed.*

Yep! Me too

WCW at one time had by far the superior roster with big names like Hogan, Piper, Flair, Sting; technical geniuses like Benoit and Malenko; monsters like Giant and Meng; rising stars like Jericho, Booker, Goldberg and Guerrero; the nWo's and Flock; AND amazing high flyers like Rey, Chavo, Kidman, Ultimo Dragon and Psychosis. That's one hell of a roster.

Would love to see a what happened to every wrestler in the full version of the what happened to that wrestler song

The reason Otani won the Crusierweight championship is because WCW had organized an elaborate tournament for the belt but completely lost the plot on organizing it. So they threw it to NJPW to try and save it who opted (or demanded) that the first champion be one of their own. And 96 Liger wasn't going to try and save another WCW junior title himself so Otani got the bill.

I never really liked it. It looked good once it hit, but there was just way too much setup beforehand. I always thought of it as unrealistic and somewhat of an overkill (in kayfabe) to do on an opponent who needs to be out standing in order to not break out of that long sequence of preparation.

Back when the cruiserweight championship was fun to watch

It was nice to have a What Happened Series video where most of the performers are still alive and well. Well done as always Pacitti!

I thought about Mike Sanders for too long i’m bleeding everywhere.

Loved the wcw cruiser weight division. It was dean malanco(sorry if I spelt it wrong) and his match with the subzero gimmick guy, that got me really into the technical wrestling.

Ultimo Dragon is one of my favorites. Same with Pyschosis

Great video appreciate you making it

This is back when you would watch the first hour of Nitro and then switch over to Raw. First hour was cruiser weights and it was great. Second hour was Hugh Morris vs Johnny Grunge. Got to wonder what they were thinking.

Ultimo Dragon was misused in wwe.

imo Good vid. Some of my all-time favorites were WCW Cruiserweight champions...Malenko, Mysterio, Jericho, Eddie Guerrero, Madusa, Daffney, and Storm. imo

Chris Jericho on 29th February 2020: "That's a nice, up-to-date list of my accomplishments you released today, Pacitti. It'd be a shame if something happened to it."

I didn't know that wright is owner of new

Ultimo Dragon all time favorite. Loved him as a heel and face.

Rey Mysterio has had a storied career, and is rightly praised for his matches even today. But in my opinion he was never the same after his first big WCW knee injury. When he first arrived he was quickly dubbed "The Human Highlight Reel" because he displayed a level of athleticism and acrobatic skill that just took your breath away every time he got in the ring. It was magic. After the injury and rehab he came back with the same fire, but he definitely had lost a step. It's a tribute to him that he's still putting on great matches a quarter century after such a devastating injury.

Ultimo Dragon & dan severn brought out ALL of their belts & it was pretty cool

Daffney was awesome I loved to hear her scream

That Kidman vs Guerrera match is such a good match. If you have not seen it, go watch it

OMG that intro song is the best thing I've seen lol. Can I get just a clip of that to share?

Would have loved to see the original La Parka hold a title at least once in WCW. He was one of the few fan favorites that never held a title.

Not to mention that Ray was also World Heavyweight Camp also

Am I tripping? Wasn’t (Flying) Brian Pillman also a CW champ. I remember him losing a belt to a masked wrestler that looked like a power ranger (can’t remember exactly who though).

A handicap Power Bomb match with Kevin Nash. 😂 I lost it and thought about it well beyond 5 seconds.

I have to be honest WWF needed the same thing to really put the nail in the coffin for WCW.The WWF Light Heavyweight Title should’ve been a title that demonstrated the Wrestling ability of Cruiserweights.The Light Heavyweight Title was a title that had some promising times especially with veterans like Yoshihiro Tajiri,Dean Malenko,Jeff Hardy,Essa Rios,Jerry Lynn.

Awesome wrestlers!!!

Crowbar is my buddy’s chiropractor

So I'd like to levy a correction since I'm going to full sail. Theres a faculty member in th4 writing department named Michael Ferrara. Ed Ferrara is not employed by them.

I take some umbrage with the opening assertion that focusing on workrate was something new to WCW. WCW had even already HAD a crusierweight division back in 91/92 with a championship. Kind of borderline ignorant to not even mention that. Yes, Hogan's era had brought in (unfortunate) changes but WCW was still the same promotion that made sure that every main eventer was a capable worker from Flair, to Sting, to Vader, to Steamboat, to Windham. Even guys like Luger and Simmons were carryable. Until Hogan came in in 94 WCW/NWA was *always* the workrate alternative to WWE. Focusing on the Crusierweights was going back to their roots.

Every ECW tv champ ranked?

Candido was a beast

damn the title was around for 5 years and had 25 champions that is 5 champions a year to hit that number wow

That song 😂😂😂😂

Just how many producers does the WWE have?!
