  1. The Monday Night Wars weren’t just wrestling — they were weekly adrenaline. WWF had the attitude, WCW had the firepower, and fans got the best era of competition we may never see again. You didn’t just watch it… you picked a side, lived the hype, and waited all week for the next shot to be fired.

  2. Chris Jericho is the hero of his own story. Every good idea in wrestling had something to with him every bad idea is someone else

  3. WCW was never run like a busiess. It was basically a rich guy's toy. Just like the Atlanta Braves, he never made any money with them either.

  4. I used to love WCW but I pretty much stopped watching it with Bishop took over. I never liked that guy for some reason

  5. It's still amazing to me how Ted Turner let the fox into the henhouse for what became known as 'Black Saturday'. A million dollar pay-off to remove Vince from a rival company & also allowed him to raid some of the best workers – Tito Santana, Junkyard Dog, Greg Valentine, etc – over to WWE, with others following suit in the months & years to come. Unreal.

  6. 1:17:53 – celebrities should be used on the peripheral….hmmm …like Lawrence Taylor headlining WM11?!?!
    The WWE-hypocrisy / revisionist history never ceases to amaze. Like when JR criticized WCW for using Scott Hall’s alcohol addiction as part of a storyline, completely omitting the fact that WWE did it too – Both Scott Hall AND Hawk 🤦‍♂️
    Or JR talking about having Goldberg lose at Starrcade killed the golden goose and would be akin to Hogan losing at WM – ya mean like how Warrior defeating Hogan at WM6 marked the downturn of WWF business for years?

  7. 55:07 "Relax, Meng" – so Classic Scott Hall! The Big Meng and the Medium Size Meng are coming 😂1.27:55 – "Russo had a filter" You couldn't have put it better! Russo was (and is) a complete idiot who has no idea what he's doing. He had a lot of ideas, almost all of which were rubbish—and it took someone like Vince McMahon to sift through them, extract the nuggets of gold from all that crap, and turn them into something worthwhile.
