    WCW Monday Night Nitro October 9th, 1995 Chicago, Illinois Our commentary trio start by hyping up tonight’s card which includes Sting vs. The Shark for the US Title, Mr. JL vs. Sabu, Big Bubba vs. Hawk and Arn Anderson vs. Ric Flair in a Steel Cage. Sounds like a pretty good card to me. Bobby...

    WWF Monday Night Raw October 9th, 1995 Grand Rapids, Michigan Match One Diesel, Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker vs. Owen Hart, The British Bulldog and Yokozuna There’s a bunch of people at ringside for this one as can be expected with all the managers that this crew have. Honestly, I thought...

    WWF Monday Night Raw October 2nd, 1995 Grand Rapids, Michigan Match One 123 Kid vs. Razor Ramon Until maybe last week when things got interesting in the main event scene, this has been the best angle on Raw so far so looking forward to this one. Honestly, right from the get-go, Kid just bumps...

    Stojy Watches Monday Night Wars September 1995 Summary Best show of the month I’ve given both Raw and Nitro 2 wins each in the initial four week stretch. Nitro probably had bigger surprises and a bigger impact on the business due to it being the debut, but based on overall performance, I’m...

    WCW Monday Nitro September 25th, 1995 Florence, South Carolina Two big time matches announced so far for tonight’s show with Lex Luger vs. Meng and Randy Savage vs. Kevin Sullivan. Also worth noting that I just can’t get into Eric Bischoff as a commentator. I don’t think he’s bad per se, but...

    I understand the concept of the dusty finish for sure, but regardless of the booking reason behind it, for me, the illogical ending hurt what was a really fun match. WWF Monday Night Raw September 25th, 1995 Grand Rapids, Michigan Match One Marty Jannetty vs. Skip w/Sunny Am I allowed to...

    WWF In Your House 3 September 24th, 1995 Saginaw, Michigan Match One Savio Vega vs. Waylon Mercy Waylon Mercy was an awesome character for WWF circa 1995. The whole acting like a good guy with the creepy edge to him was played really well, a shame it didn’t last long. This one was pretty slow...

    Nitro definitely had the perfect storm starting when they did and being unopposed. It's why the Luger appearance and the need for that big surprise to lure people in was even more important. That first episode of Nitro in particular has to be the most well booked debut show of any kind for any...

    WCW Monday Nitro September 18th, 1995 Johnson City, Tennessee Opening commentary to open the show and then “FELLAS GET GRANDMA OUT OF THE BATHROOM BECAUSE IF YOU’RE NOT WATCHING THIS, YOU GOT A BUM STEER”. Okay, thanks Mongo. Also calling out that Vader is still in the opening credits even...

    Ah okay, that makes more sense as in Luger is just a talent who resonates with WCW through and through. Funnily enough, in direct contrast, when I think Luger, I think the LEX EXPRESS~! although this could be because I’ve always been a WWF/WWE guy. When I think Mt. Rushmore, I think best of the...

    Stojy watches the Monday Night War

    I can honestly get not knowing who was face/heel if you watched the match out of context. Always hard when Flair basically always has his fair share of fans by this point no matter what he's doing. To further elaborate on my comments surrounding this being the worst War Games match. I stand by...

    WCW Fall Brawl September 17th, 1995 Asheville Civic Centre Asheville, North Carolina Match One Number One Contendership for US Title Brian Pillman vs. Johnny B Badd Okay, so the first thing that shocks me about this one is the length of time. These two were given 30 minutes, which Pillman...

    WCW Monday Nitro September 11th, 1995 It’s week two of Nitro time and we’ve got a pretty stacked card tonight in terms of name value. Hogan/Luger for the title, Savage/Norton and the debut of Sabu. Sounds like fun to me. We get a replay of the confrontation between Luger/Hogan to hype...

    WWF Monday Night Raw September 11th, 1995 Before the opening match, on commentary it’s announced that Bam Bam Bigelow and The British Bulldog will face off at In Your House 3. Match One Razor Ramon vs. The British Bulldog w/Jim Cornette During the entrances, we see replays of Bulldog...

    WCW Monday Nitro September 4th, 1995 The first ever episode of Nitro. One of the most historic episodes of a wrestling TV show in history. This is admittedly one episode of Nitro that I have actually seen before. Firstly, I think the Mall of America thing is maybe a little cheesy in general...

    Stojy watches the Monday Night War

    I’ve always wanted to go back and watch the Monday Night Wars in chronological order. I’ve admittedly watched all of WWF/E stuff before throughout the time period, but most of my knowledge regarding WCW is on reading/research and not watching. The plan is to watch each episode of Raw and Nitro...
