Reliving The War takes a close look at the “Monday Night War” era of professional wrestling. With WWF Raw is War and WCW Monday Nitro on television every Monday night, fans had to decide which show to watch. This resulted in a TV ratings battle between WWF & WCW with both companies trying to put on their very best shows every Monday night and, eventually, the Monday Night War became a battle for survival.
On Nitro this week Bret Hart takes on Booker T; the winner gets a shot at the WCW United States Championship. Scott Steiner vs Bill Goldberg headlines the show, and the nWo sabotage the final moments of the Nitro broadcast by taking over the satellite feed. During this takeover the nWo make fun of Roddy Piper, Ric Flair, Steve McMichael and Arn Anderson.
On the WWF channel Vince McMahon seeks vengeance against The Undertaker. McMahon books a Kane vs Undertaker Inferno Match for the main event, but the Undertaker says he has a special surprise for the Chairman. Public Enemy make their Raw debut in a match against the Brood, Sable’s number 1 fan finally gets to speak to her hero, and if X-Pac can beat Chyna in a 1-on-1 match he’ll earn himself a shot at Shane McMahon’s European Championship.

I agree cutting away from Bret vs. Booker was a mistake but I did like how WCW gave Scott Norton some shine this week.
The Big Show is far more entertaining than the Rock ever was. Rock was super overrated with his silly overselling and constant talking. Wrestling wise, he is below average at best
I wanna be a jam up guy once 🥺
hello friend!
Umaga v Lashley hair match
I know it was Hogan that thought that terrible Gucci pucci line would be hilarious lol
Good ol banana bob holly
Mike Anus was WCW Brooklyn Brawler lmfao 🤣🤣😆😆🤣
Why did they never use Bart Gunn after he won brawl 4 all? He had a legit tough man gimmick and they just did nothing
Love catching up to these. Seriously the best series on the internet. Thank you so much for your hard work!
This is the episode I started watching Raw over WCW. I needed to know how the ring of fire would look , also, I needed to know what the hell was up with the damn teddy bear.
Havent missed an episode! I'm on vacation in Vegas and I am still watching it!
This series is better than current wrestling
Honestly don't remember exactly when the Brain said the comment I think it was around Mysterio v Nash match on this episode. Bobby about Mysterio: "He feels like he is 4 feet tall!"
I don't remember if anything came of the July 11th thing on WCW(even more reason to watch every Reliving The War lol) but I do know Bash At The Beach 99 was on July 11th so who knows? Keep up the great wrestling content Wrestling Bios, you are the #1 jam up guy!!
Yea should of put Roy Keane saying that think migurie big baby ,,,,, baby 🍼 lol if ye no ye no that Roy Keane put in when mc Mahon has the bear and keaneos face LoL Swifty Dublin Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🍻🍻🇮🇪🇮🇪
Scott Norton was a beast
I forgot how often Bret lost
"Who…is this roody-poo?"
Mike Anus?
2:31 I had that same hair in 1999.
Bum Bum vs Von Hummer was a great match
Clicked on Monday morning after kinda watching last week. Video stared at bam vans chin lock 3 so dope
I can't seem to find episode 175? Any help?
Has there ever been a main event star that did less in ring wrestling and had more repetitive promos than Hogan? He couldn't cut it in Hollywood, and after about 18 months of NWO being red hot, now he holds the title and fans' hopes of a competitive future hostage only for his gain and no one else's. Meanwhile McMahon is laughing to the bank every time Hogan's creative card comes into play
At 12:47, that’s ironic considering the neck issues that Edge would have.
Great video
Fun Fact: This episode of Monday Night War and Nitro aired on my 14th birthday. I'm 38 now. Oh, how time flies.
Love your videos but always skip the wcw bits. Can we have separate raw and nitro vids? Much love 😊
Nitro better than raw that episode.
I watch that Steiner promo like once every 3 months it's so off the rails
Ok you can go to WWF now Jericho….pls….loosing to hugh morris is just sad..
11 July, 1999 marks the day when India and Pakistan held a between during Kargil war for the pull out of Pakistani intruders who had occupied the hills of Kargil , Drass and Batalik sectors of erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir.
So let me get this straight, the guy that took Goldberg's undefeated streak lost against a guy that's 3 feet smaller than him? No wonder why WCW died!
What is that chinlock music?
Hogan in the Wolfpac made zero sense and most of us once loyal wcw fans couldn't watch anymore. No one wanted Hogan in the Wolfpac wearing JNCOs, talking gangster "My trigger finger brother" it was too much cringe and killed it.
27:55 is what annoyed me about Norton. Always sticking that tongue out when doing a move or punch😂
Ok! Who has that photo! Seriously!
That Rock/Big Show/Vince promo is brilliant
Did Candy take the hummer or give the hummer?
