Yeah, a sneak peek.

Did Vince forget he broke some traditions also? He wants to complain yet he did some dirty things also and even before WCW ever was a thing.

Dude, this Monday Night War program is so damn good. I'm just glued to the screen.

Vince always forgets how he raided the territories and put people out by convincing television stations to drop the competition.

Fucking shit when it ended I was upset. I wanted to see the whole damn thing.

You and me both. I can't wait for it to continue and to see Nitro again.

Watching the Macho Madness episode of Wrestlemania Rewind right now, that leads up to Savage winning the tournament at 'Mania IV. Some good interview bits from Hogan and DiBiase but really bums me out that Macho isn't alive to add to the discussion.

The Macho/DiBiase match is about to start, can't remember liking it too much but still thinking it was the MOTN, which is pretty bad. : Let's see if it's better this time around.

Being MOTN is hardly hard for a show that tried to jam 30 some odd matches in one night! :rofl:

Did they just add this episode? I might check this out, I'm rather found of Mach.

Well, I'd need to watch Demo's/Strike Force and Steamboat/Valentine again to be sure. After just watching the main, I'm going *** and remembering a better match to come between these two.

Two quick things I noticed...

1 - Why the fuck is Dave Hebner reffing a match only two months removed from the evil twin fiasco that cost Hogan the belt in the first place? They may as well have had Danny Davis reffing the match. :

2 - Savage wins because Hogan blatantly interferes with the refs back turned (maybe everybody's got a price for Hulkamania?), cranks DiBiase with a chair and allows Savage to hit the big elbow. It's amazing how long Hogan was a heel for and yet hardly anyone noticed. :

I have a theory that Hulk Hogan has always been a heel. Think about. Who was trying to sleep with who's wife?

A lot of things about that didn't make sense like allowing DiBiase and Andre in after he tried to sell the belt to him causing this whole mess.

I can't argue with three stars. It's certainly not Macho/Steamboat match, but they certainly tried to save the main event.

Speaking of Steamboat, his match with Valentine was probably *** as well, so at least there's two decent matches on the card.

I can only assume they put Valentine over because they knew Steamboat/Savage in the second round couldn't be done in a short amount of time. Still, if they'd removed some of the filler from this show and made it a smaller tournament, we could have seen Savage get his win back from the last 'Mania while also going on to win the title. Great booking opportunity ruined by the need to overload the card.

Oh and Demo's/Strike Force was close to *** as well. Match is alright, but Fuji is great on the outside and the first Demo's title win is a pretty big deal.

One of the biggest questions we have received since the launch of the WWE Network is when will WCW Monday Nitro be added to the Network.

Yesterday, WWE's George Barrios, Stephanie McMahon and Triple H took part in a discussion about WWE's business at the Needham Fireside Chat event in NYC.

While discussing the Network, it was noted that WCW Monday Nitro episodes would begin to be added to the Network this Fall alongside the Monday Night War documentary series. WWE will also be posting Raw episodes from that era at the same time.

During the discussion, it was also noted that the company has already prepared 40,000 hours of their library for digital consumption via the Network and they have been slowly rolling it out.

Just a reminder that the Journey to Summerslam special airs tonight at 8 PM. Looks to be a pretty cool show.
