For those complaining that you're being "biased" to WCW better have that same energy when the Attitude Era comes around and the WWF starts taking all the Ws for the rest of the War. There better not be any complaints, hell there shouldn't be any now. WCW at this point had much better matches and content than the WWF. I'm enjoying this series overall. Keep up the good work!

There are going to be nights during the attitude era that will go to WCW, until 2000ish wcw still had some good stuff going on, but was getting super hit and miss. Wwf just has this narrative where before the nwo showed up Nitro was never competitive with them, but that’s just untrue, they were neck and neck in ratings before wcw took over, and they had better overall match quality. HBK, Razor, Bret Hennig and Owen are far and away wwf’s best in ring workers before Hall showed up in wcw, whereas Wcw had a roster full of good workers.

I'm a massive WWF fan and I think WCW has the edge at this point... WWF seems to have one foot in the future and one still firmly in the past despite promising to be RAW... WCW despite a few silly gimmicks feels ahead in terms of feeling modern despite having "old stars" who in shocked to find were all much younger than I believed at the time 😶😂

So what if the score is lopsided right now? There's a lot more history to go. And we all already know how it ended. Raw will be mopping the floor with Nitro by the time the series reaches it's end. The purpose of this series (or my purpose for following it, at least) is to see how it unfolded - when, why, and how the momentum changed.

Honestly raw will win and not just because they won in real life. The last two years or nitro and wcw as a whole were horrible and that showed in the viewership numbers. While there was a long time were wwf was behind nitro the quality of the wrestling shows wasn't as big as it was comparing nitro and raw at the end of the era if that makes any sense.

Let us be honest, the WWF was known for squash matches and gimmick wrestlers back then. The Monday Night Wars got WWF to up their game, slowly. It took a while before the WWF started to get better, the change of Rocky to "The Rock", Mankind, Stone Cold Steve Austin and so on. WCW was a mixed bag, some really goofy stuff, but the Outsiders was a gigantic shot of adrenaline to WCW. It then slowly went downhill as the NWO just got too silly and big. I forget which wrestler said it, but it went along the lines of "the WWE is a wrestling company that does television, while the WCW was a television company that did wrestling." I think at the end of it, you saw how true that statement was as the WCW imploded from within.

If written right, it would have been comedy gold.

Wait, people are saying you're biased to WCW!? Are they...are they WATCHING the programs? You can say what you wish, as everyone is entitled to their opinion, but come on, this hasn't been terribly close as of yet. I know that this will swing the other direction in a year or so, or at least, get closer, but let's remember what's going to happen from the middle of 99 until the close of doors at WCW in '01. I'm intrigued and excited for the entire journey of this show, but the early matches are VERY likely going to go to WCW because they just had a better product! Thanks for the excellent show and well thought out, balanced and open-minded opinion, sir! Keep up the great work!

I was nearly four years old when this episode aired, so I obviosly didnt follow wrestling during the Monday Night Wars. I started watching around the end of 2012 and was so happy when I was gifted with the WWE Network in Germany, to finally see what those Monday Night Wars were everyone seemed to talk about. I gained some basic knowledge from wreddit and the documentaries on the network, but I never felt like watching all of the episodes again to relieve the 'war' myself. This series fills a big hole in my interest that I wasnt able (or motivated enough) to fill myself. Thank you!

This was the first time I ever sat down to watch a wrestling show. I never cared for wrestling before this. I was 9 years old. I was looking for something to watch on this night (January 1, 1996) as it seemed there was nothing to watch. I saw "WCW Monday Nitro" in the TV guide in the newspaper and thought "Hm.. That sounds pretty cool. Is that an action anthology show?" Sat down and started watching at 8:00PM. Oh, it's wrestling? I had never heard of WCW before (only WWF). Hulk Hogan is on here? Macho Man is here as well? That's cool. I know them. The next week. Same scenario. I just needed something to watch as there was nothing else on. I watch Nitro. Third week (January 15, 1996) I was officially hooked. I stuck with WCW until the very end, and only watched WWF during commercial breaks and only if WCW was not on. I still bleed WCW to this day, and will defend them until the day I die. Even the garbage storylines and trash of 2000 - 2001 (the in ring wrestling was still amazing though). I almost stopped watching wrestling entirely after March 26, 2001, but I kept watching WWE because of Edge (He is my favorite wrestler of all-time). It took me almost 10 years (starting 2009) of scouring the internet for every piece of WCW media I could get. I now have every Nitro, Saturday Night, Thunder, Pro, Main Event, Worldwide, and Power Hour since 1990. Life is good. Oh and Starrcade 1995 is worth it just for Dusty Rhodes commentary alone, nevermind the absolutely incredible card. WCW for Life!!

@@zacharythomason7359 Yes, but really only WWE PPVs nowadays, and the occasional original content on WWE Network (365, Camp WWE, etc.). I stopped watching wrestling weekly back in 2008, as real life took over (convenient timing, given the WWE change to PG a week or so prior). I was a HUGE TNA fan back in 2004 - 2008 as well. Really hard to get invested with the hotshot storylines nowadays.

I absolutely loved how WCW would introduce talent from different cultures. That was one of the best things in WCW when I was a kid. I just remember being around 11 and being in my grandma's living room watching WCW and when Ultimo Dragon came out with Sonny Ono and he had all of those championship belts I remember being amazed by Ultimo Dragon. Such great memories. It makes me wish that WCW never went out of business. If only Vince reached out and found a way to make both of them work by still purchasing WCW but it would've been cool if he just let it continue to be it's thing while owning it. Then later down the line you have WCW guys showing up on RAW and vice versa that would've been so cool

I'm actually one that am old enough to to have watched both in 96. I was 16. Wwe/wed had Eve beat hands down until the nwo angle. Wcw maybe caught my attention for a couple of months then I was back with wwf as soon as stone cold became "stone cold".

I have to defend WWF here for the ppv match, for people who didnt or couldn't afford it, it was kinda cool to get see them. And getting to see the wwf ppv championship match with Brett was nice, plus Brett matches I always thought was amazingly good, plus Brett's entry music was one of the best.

2:50 This match was also for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Title. I think, after a horrible year with Bam Bam Bigelow losing to a football player, Nash as champion, Mabel as King of the Ring, the Main Event of Halloween Havoc and Hogan still trying to be relevant, WCW Starrcade 1995 was a great show.

I was so oblivious when I was young watching wrestling. I didn’t even realize Eric was giving away results lolol I was just hooked on both shows. My brother and I were just flipping back and forth. If Raw was stale we flipped to Nitro. If Nitro was stale we flip back to Raw but because Raw was only an hour at the time the first hour of Hour of nitro was watched with no interruptions
