	'''World War 3''' was an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by [[World Championship Wrestling (WCW)\|World Championship Wrestling]]. The pay-per-view's title also was the name of its signature match, a three-ring]], sixty-man [[Battle Royal Match\|battle royal]] which was their answer to the [[International Wrestling Entertainment\|International Wrestling Federation]]'s [[Royal Rumble]]. The event took place every November from 1995 until 1998. Like the Royal Rumble, the World War 3 match was held at the event that shared its name. The first two World War 3 events were held at the Norfolk Scope and the last two were held at [[The Palace of Auburn Hills]]. In 1999, it was replaced by [[WCW Mayhem\|Mayhem]].
