SuperBrawl IX was the ninth SuperBrawl professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by World Championship Wrestling (WCW). The event took place on February 21, 1999 from the Oakland Arena in Oakland, California.
The match of Barry Windham and Curt Hennig against Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko was the final of a double-elimination tournament. Entering the match, Benoit and Malenko had already lost once while Windham and Hennig were undefeated. Malenko forced Windham to submit with the The Texas Cloverleaf for the first fall. Windham pinned Malenko for the second fall and the championship after choking Malenko out with his belt.
Kevin Nash pinned Rey Misterio, Jr. after an Outsider's Edge from Scott Hall. As a result of the match Misterio Jr. lost his mask; had Konnan and Mysterio won Miss Elizabeth would have had her head shaved. This match was originally supposed to involve Lex Luger as Kevin Nash's tag team partner accompanied by Miss Elizabeth against Rey Mysterio Jr. and Konnan in the tag team hair vs. mask match, but Luger suffered a bicep injury at the hands of Rey Mysterio Jr. three days earlier on Thunder and was immediately replaced by Scott Hall as Kevin Nash's tag team partner against Konnan and Rey Misterio Jr. in the tag team hair vs. mask match.
Hollywood Hogan pinned Ric Flair after David Flair used a Stun Gun on Ric.
