    As a MF that grew up watching in the 90s, what a treat that was. We would get every pvp from both wwe/wcw and just enjoy. I miss you aunt and uncle, good ol days

    Over the last year, I have re-engaged in two hobbies that I haven't been into for years, wrestling and 40k, and lo and behold, I found a content creator that has channels for both. Love your stuff, keep up the good work.

    My mom hated us watching wrestling as kids. We all came to an agreement that Monday and Thursday were Opposite Day so when she would yell to ask us if we were watching we didn’t feels as guilty saying no

    Born in 87, Raised in wwf, never liked WCW, couldn't help but have an interest in dubya see dubyas product at the height of nwo. It was a weird time. Everything after the Monday night wars and attitude Era just felt watered down n more like a product than a badass natural thing

    To me, the difference between the two was that it felt like WCW was run by Nash and Hogan. Whereas WWF still felt like a product controlled by Vince. Whether it's true or not it still felt that way. WWF had plenty of over the top stupid moments. Milk trucks, granny s**, socks over the hand. But it all felt like a part of the creative process, not the whim of part timers.

    • @kjhenry100
      @kjhenry100 8 месяцев назад

      And maybe my memory is completely wrong but during the wars WCW seemed like an interference or cheating EVERY SINGLE TIME. No stakes felt real. The belt changed hands every week and it was always by bs. Goldberg was a bright spot for clean finishes but even that had to end.

  • @christopherbaker9676
    @christopherbaker9676 6 месяцев назад +2

    I watched both. Only because it had older top WWF talent. Nitro would start at 7 pm Raw at 8. We would watch all of Raw then watch the re run of Nitro. Imo WWF was always been better than the rest. 😮

    There was often some great American wrestlers coming to quebec to face Ricky Martel, Dino Bravo and Abdullah. The Road Warriors vs Bravo-Martel was a classic.

    How different would Hogan's Legacy be if he woulda just took the loss against Jarrett & Sting clean. He should have lost 1,2,3 after a knock down drag out fight for your life type battle..I think that would have went a long way in not throwing a lot of other people under the bus, Heck WCW might still be around.

    Good lord, Hogan claims he came up with the NWO.....but for him, Beefcake the Nasty Boys. First of all, he didnt come up with the NWO. Second of all, his NWO would have been a friggin joke. Third of all, Hogan looked like a complete tool the entire NWO run and it only got worse with the outfits he wore. He owes the entire thing to Hall and Nash's coolness...cause he was the total opposite of cool.....then there's early 99 Hogan, when his looking like a complete wanna-be tool hit its peak.

    Man youre extremely good at this. Any xha😢 you'll ever do a AWA video? They used to be the biggest territory, half the wwf 80s roster came from there. Bischoff, Alundra Blaze, Rick Rude. Had the best tag eister and women's roster.
    I grew up on the last good years before WCW ate em.

    I think it's hilarious that Russo thinks that if he would have had more time to write and produce that the show would have been better lmao he loved being out there in front of that camera and always reassuring everyone wrestling is fake so people shouldn't take it seriously but all he did was played out his boy hood dream and won the belt but it doesn't mean anything lmao

    I was a kid in this era also. I received the game Revenge on the 64 for Xmas without knowing anything about WCW bc we diidnt have cable! I knew kids preferred WWF to WCW, but didnt know why, and I didnt know Revenge was actually the best wrestling game available. And I had no idea why Hogan's finisher was this finger poke that did no damage. It made me hate Hogan and forced me to learn what his "real" finisher was...and I was even more incredulous to learn he did a leg drop off the corner when his spirit was full? I never caught on that Sting was a Taker ripoff, or even that some of the characters were fictional. I couldn't put it past WCW to sign a Frankenstein monster among others 😅
