    WCW Monday Nitro Live Watch-Along: From the Beginning

    Bischoff‘s ultimate biggest disaster was he was unfortunately a cog in the Turner machine and they’re the ones who trained him on how to be an executive and much like Turner often got impatient too soon Bischoff never let a creative direction simmer too long. Some of WCW‘s best creative work...

    WCW Monday Nitro Live Watch-Along: From the Beginning

    I think he was a mixed bag when it came to business. I think he made some of the best business calls WCW ever made, but he often let his own personal taste outweigh what he thought his customers wanted. If he didn’t bring in so many musical acts, especially in 1999 didn’t focus so much on skits...

    WCW Monday Nitro Live Watch-Along: From the Beginning

    For sure. There’s a reason why Benoit typically got elevated to the top of the card. There were often guys who could do what he could do in the ring as far as like the moves go but Benoit wasn’t just a spot monkey. He knew how to tell a good story. But his inability to cut a promo definitely...

    It was so good. Did you see that work that Eddie was doing with his arm which we call in the business selling. That was telling such a solid story.

    WCW Monday Nitro Live Watch-Along: From the Beginning

    You can say what you want to, there’s a lot of hindsight lying going on about WCW Bischoff didn’t punish people for doing good work in WCW like Vince would often do in the WWF. If the undercard outperformed his main event, he punished them. Hear Bischoff actively rewarded them for performing...

    People often mark a lot for the moves that these guys do but I honestly I think the best part of this match right now is Eddie selling. That work he’s doing with his arm after Benoit was targeting it. It’s really good storytelling.

    That too. He was only like a month away from being ready to come back to the ring when they all left. That could’ve been incredible as well.

    Imagine Benoit and Booker in 2000 after having gotten better since their 98 series finally in the main event for the world title.

    I think Benoit, Booker, Steiner and Jarrett all being elevated to the main event in 2000 would’ve been the way to go.

    Although I can’t really say shame that hard in hindsight, but you know what I mean.

    I think he was really shooting on all cylinders by the time he gets to 1999. Which is why I actually think if they didn’t change the booking team after starrcade 99 I actually think putting the world title on him in early 2000 was the right call and that could’ve been his year. Shame we never...

    I prefer the in-between when he’s in the late Horsemen. When it’s a little shorter than this.

    I hope so. We can wait if he can’t right now.

    Not very often, you see a dude bang his head on the post and then immediately get a fucking forearm to the back of the head immediately. That must really ring your noggin.

    I don’t see Lex Luger here you shut your whore mouth(, but also yes, they’re very good).

    Benoit got the most boring, generic tights that I have ever seen him in.

    WCW Monday Nitro Live Watch-Along: From the Beginning

    Nah, I got over that a while ago. It was just too hard to enjoy retro watches if I had to think about that all the time and I’ve actually gotten to the point now with my WCWBTB that I am actually booking Benoit until his contract is up.

    Hilarious though because Bischoff would often talk about how he didn’t want to be as vulgar as WWF but here is DDP very clearly shooting Johnny B goods fireworks gun like it’s his dick blowing a load lol

    I can’t blame DDP being premature on that one. Because if I was married to the diamond doll. I’d be shooting my load in the beginning of the match too.
