It’s the return of the show How Bad Can It Be Belt - smack yourself until it’s felt. This week we watch a new episode of Nitro that was recommend to me in the KZbin comments section. We need to see if this is actually worse than the previous episode of nitro we reviewed. But of course if you’ve got a worse episode, smack it in the comments until it’s felt!
This was my first attempt at making a longer than usual video. It's a bit of a risk but I'll see how it does. If you want to support me making more videos like this, make sure you sign up to my Patreon.

No, this was the perfect time to take Rey's mask off. The West coast vs Southern boys feud was great stuff and it gained a lot of traction in such a short period of time, but WCW just gave up on it and later turned the Filthy Animals into straight up heels, which was the wrong decision. Rey & Konnan (and even Kidman) could have been properly elevated - but in classic WCW fashion they screwed it up so none of them reached a higher level.

Imagine having the roster WCW had back in 98/99 and screwing it up. Imagine if workers like DDP, Raven, Rey, Jericho, Benoit, Kidman, Booker T had all got pushed hard during the tail end of 98 and begining of 99.... But everyone basically left during the end of 99 so it was probably too late.

DDP was main eventing PPV's with Hogan and Goldberg. He became World champion a month after this episode. You can't say he wasn't pushed hard. It's the WWF that didn't see him as the star he was. And Raven? Really? He was stuck on ECW mode after he split from that place. And he was at the top of WCW's death pool. He's not the kinda guy you would want to give much of a push in a mainstream promotion.

@@quentinkaasa47 I kinda agree on the Raven part, I was just a Raven mark back then lol And as for DDP, sure he got a push and was facing the likes of Hogan, Hall, Nash, Savage Goldberg, etc.... But therein is the problem. He was facing off against the same top guys. If other younger talent was pushed there could have been much more interesting matches leading to everyone involved getting more over. But by the time they actually tried to do this it was far too late.

This storyline killed the nWo for good and set WCW on their final tumble off the cliff when it comes to both ratings and attendance. There's a misconception that business took a nosedive immediately after the Fingerpoke of Doom and that's just not the case. WCW was still putting up huge numbers in the weeks after and breaking their own company records set previously in 97/98 despite trailing behind WWF in the Nielsen ratings. This particular arc we see led to the nonsensical Flair/Hogan double turn at Uncensored and you can almost immediately see the change in the amount of fans in the arena. Then they change the set from the colorful lights to that ugly new logo that's devoid of any sort of color. The ring became grey and dull and on the outside was just black. The lights in the arena are ugly and lifeless now, a smokey grey look over the crowd. The amazing and hard hitting Monday Nitro theme song is gone, replaced by something industrial sounding as were the the trends of 1999 - 2002ish. Nitro was never the same.

The first hour was unopposed. They didn't go head-to-head with RAW until hour two. It was basically an experiment and Nash trying to prove a point to Bischoff.

This episode looks like it was the result of being produced during... not a writers strike, because there's writing all over the fricking place, but... a referee strike? Sound guy strike?

I definitely remember this episode because of the Rey Mysterio Scott Norton match. This was during his giant killer gimmick after losing the mask.

Nov 22, 1999 and Nov 29, 1999 episodes of WCW Nitro. I don't care if it's a contest or not. Those episodes were literally so bad they were good, and I know your review will have me in stitches.

I'd like to see you tackle the WXO which lasted for a hiccup in 2000. Three hour long shows featuring the dregs of WCW and young indy wrestlers. This is the group that had that infamous Johnny Ace promo "If you don't got it, get it. If you don't get it, well figure it out!"

Have you changed something with your voiceovers for the last few weeks? Since the long episode, the intro is regular, then the voice over dips to inaudible unless I crank up my speakers. I thought it was just the overall audio, but when there is audio from the show, it is the same audio level as the intro; which is now loud because I have my speakers cranked to hear your voice. I doubt this is just me. If I want to hear bad voiceover, I can just watch Vee Infuso.
