I have no idea how I missed this the first time around. This clip features everything that was god awful about WCW circa 1999, but includes one of my favorite bands. You’ve got a has-been wrestler, a steel cage, a terrible imitation of JR, Vampiro, and Jerry Only in a legit match. Watch this now.
Life In A Bungalo swung by the old WWE New York in Times Square today for a press conference promoting Vince McMahon’s million dollar giveaway. Here are some tidbits:
The press conference started at noon, and fans were seated in the general floor area behind the press and fans filled out the balcony area. The place was pretty packed with tons of chanting New Yorkers.

Get ready for a big monster throwdown, and I’m not talking Cloverfield. The Kaiju Big Battel guys are heading back to New York on February 9 for a knockdown, beat up, kickass brawl at…wait for it…Webster Hall. Okay, I have no idea how they are going to cram all that Kaiju goodness into a glorified dance club, but hell, WWE use to tape shows from the ESPN Zone.
Life In A Bungalo caught up with Dave of Kaiju Big Battel to find out more about the show and big monster wrestling:
Kaiju Big Battel has always operated of the wrestling industry. We use a lot of the fundamentals of wrestling but we never really treated it like a wrestling show. It’s more like a multimedia event that was more akin to a party than your typical indie wrestling fed. I think Webster Hall is going to be excited. I’m excited to go to that room and I think if it sells out it’s going to be a hot night and we definitely have some surprises for the show including this black box concept, and we have a musical surprise. I’m really looking forward to it.
