(Redirected from Road Wild 1999)
1999 World Championship Wrestling pay-per-view event
The event featured wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in the scripted events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
Fit Finlay was scheduled to face Jimmy Hart's First Family, but Finlay suffered a severe injury prior to the event. A match scheduled between Madusa and Mona also did not take place without any official reason given.
Reception
In 2011, Jack Bramma of 411Mania gave the event a rating of 4.5 , stating, "The dredges of mediocrity. WCW had over a year left but they were already losing significant steam by this point. I think the idea of an outdoor PPV at Sturgis could have been a lot of fun but most of the work here is just bad to average and the booking is ass. Maybe watch the 6 man tag to see some fine attention to detail from Hennig or the DDP-Benoit encounter if you don't want to see the three-ways with Raven from a couple of years prior."
