Series 2 - Episode 35 - Bash at the Beach 2000 The legend of Bash at the Beach has lived on for almost a quarter century. A pay per view which perfectly captures a moment in time, and arguably the very moment WCW stopped being competition for WWF.

By Mid 1999 gone were Raven and Sandman, both now in rival WCW, ho...
