Any recommended sources for retro WCW stuff outside of the Conrad podcasts and Wrestling Bios? I'm always looking for analysis of classic material.

Despite Fingerpoke of Doom being said to be the "death" of WCW, some early 1999 stuff is really good. Spring Stampede 1999 I find to be a great show, with an excellent Juventud Guerrera vs. Blitzkreig match. Also around the time the Rey/Kidman vs. Malenko/Benoit vs. Raven/Saturn tag stuff was awesome. Sting vs. DDP had an excellent WCW Title match on Nitro in mid April. Also of course the Bret Hart-Goldberg steel plate segment.

Really I find WCW '99 to fall apart at around Slamboree. It wasn't perfect before then, but it was surprisingly enjoyable.

Yeah, Spring Stampede '99 is up there with one of my favourite PPVs they produced in that decade. I have been watching everything WCW on the Network over the past couple of years, and am up to about July 2000 now. DDP's title win was excellent!
