Nice bonus video
Can you do a video about a war between WCW Thunder and WWF Smackdown! each week? I know you did one with the Smackdown pilot video that you did a couple years ago.
I’m not gonna lie, I’m getting a kick out of seeing how disastrous WCW is getting at this point of the timeline. NWO is just doing whatever they want with very little retaliation, while the WWF has a two hour show that just files by so fast. Side note: Curt Henning looks like he’s wearing a similar brown suit to Rick Rude’s. You can tell they were definitely best friends.
Holyshit its a Qtip sighting.
Is there any chance that you'll cover WWF Capital Carnage, the UK-only PPV from December '98?
When it comes time for Smackdown dont you kinda need to cover for the War because it 100% continues the storyline from Raw and stuff that actually means something as far as the story goes unlike WCW
Living in Richmond we dont get any more wwe shows anymore bc the city has let the arena fall into disrepair and cant figure out what to do with it. Richmond city sucks
Great video Bios. Your commentary gets better every year.
Lol WCW was so naff. The ITV of wrestling
I think konan gets kicked out next week!
I was there for this! Thanks!
NWO Scott hall Kevin Nash
JR: "Buster! Buster! Bah-Gawd! BAH-GAWD!"
This is the most viewed WCW THUNDER in historty. It drew record numbers. Numbers ANY current wrestling show would be greatful to draw but this channel, a propaganda channel created by WWE would have you believe otherwise becuase its created in such a likeable such a fun entertainig way and like its against the establishment when in reality this whole channel has been anti WCW and pro WWE/F since the jump than anyone with a brain would be able to see that though it will of course proclaim to be neutral but we know better.
Jesus loves you!
I don't understand how you're getting away with this channel. I would get copyright striked to hell. I get strikes for anything I do. Not trying to hate I love the channel i'm just curious I don't get it
You will be high scholar and historian
I love the Sandman 'Jim' bits, so glad you covered this!!
I love how you say fast count. I did a triple take and still think I heard something else hahahah😅
i’ve got a feeling that that giant is gonna make a choice to jump ship. i would too.
Totally re-watching this before today's episode of Reliving The RawNitro War.
😄👍
My Smokey says, "No Sting, No Care."
Q-Tip in the House!
Imagine if Kevin nash tried jack knifing Kidman & he reversed it 😅😅
Everybody had to have a "world order" faction or had to join a group at some point around this time. LWO, BWO AND NWO. These "world order" factions were ridiculous around this time made no sense 😂😂😂😂
I don’t know if this was already asked or if he already said something about it , but will he do smackdown vs thunder for reliving the war
Anyone else notice that Hogan unironically dressed up as Poochie from the Simpsons?
You know youre a loser when you use black racist people rap music.
Its a good thing the WCW booking committee were aware enough to know that Konnan had become too popular as a Wolfpac member to just have him be just another guy in this new super NWO group as a heel. It just wouldnt have worked.
La Parka was one of the more entertaining wrestlers 💯💯
Hulk Chologan
I've always referred to this version of Hulk Hogan as, "Cholo Hogan." Don't you know he's loco?
Sonic Rush intro mix?
No, it's that game Tempo on the 32x
Look at this..interesting. nwo b/w unhappy with Hogan and the wolfpac. Henning. Giant. Later on even Stevie Ray.
Grounds laid for an even bigger nwo implosion. But…..we know what happened. Nothing.
La Parka was so underrated!
And raw wins this episode of thunder
I got fed up of the NWO by this point rehashing the same old boring storylines and behaviours. I couldn't stand Hogan even when he was in WWE. I always felt the NWO became too dragged out for too long and boy their constant interfering got to annoying levels of predictability like Hogan's invincibility power up he always did to win every match. Uggggh lol
FLAIR IS THE ABSOUTE GOAT OF PRO WRESTLING.
