    This was entertaining for sure, but vastly inferior to Monday Night Raw in my opinion, since Bischoff stole all of WWE's talent. I admit this did entertain me, but the only reason it was on top for so long, was because he picked up a lot of WWE's main stars, when instead he should have been developing talent of his own, which is why WWE took over soon after. One thing that really disgusted me was that Tony Schiavone, announced on live WWE TV that Mick Foley was going to win the WWE title, however it just ended up biting him back in the ass, and where is he now?, he had his run in WWE as the general manager but he has recently been fired which is a good thing. I loved the NWO black and white, and always did like Goldberg, Chris Beniot, Eddie Gurerro,etc etc however my loyalty always remained to the WWE, since that's how I began watching wrestling! plus there just wasn't that much originality in it at all. This was entertaining for sure, but vastly inferior to Monday Night Raw in my opinion, since Bischoff stole all of WWE's talent, but it was still a decent show that I enjoyed watching every now and then. *** out of 5

    Although this may seem a little far fetched, we are now hearing from several sources close to the situation that Ted Turner is seriously considering a return to the wrestling business.When AOL merged with Time Warner, Ted Turner signed several documents as he was losing more and more power within the company. One of the documents signed was that he could not compete against AOL Time Warner in the wrestling business. We have been told that agreement ends in March of 2005. In March of 2001, Brad Siegel and Jamie Kellner effectively killed WCW by canceling its programming off of TBS and TNT. The company was sold to WWE, which then gutted it.We have been told there is a five year no-compete for wrestling programming between AOL Time Warner and WWE, which would expire in March of 2006. Obviously with any wrestling promotion, you need a TV deal to really make it work. TNT has changed its image to the drama network so they are pretty much a no go. TBS though is wide open though and Kellner is no longer in charge. He was the main man behind getting rid of wrestling on the network. The word making the rounds is that Turner may already be laying down the foundation for a huge promotion with a TV deal. One source has even told us he has sent out feelers to both Steve Austin and Goldberg about being involved in the company if all goes as planned.

    I am sick of some of the stupid kids on here that say 'nWo was a RIPOFF of The DX'... If you were to make a valid point, make sure you look at the facts.nWo was created in 1996... while DX was created in 1998 (I think), the matter of the fact is... nWo was atleast a year before the DX was made.And for people that saw RAW is better, look at the crap the WWE Shovels at us now. I rather watch Nitro.I bet all the people who said 'Watch RAW, Its the greatest Wrestling Show' dont even watch the show anymore. And dont blame it on the WCW part of the roster, cause its the WWE Writers, including Vince Mcmahon, who writes this stuff.So, give WCW a break... It was run by AOL Time Warner, a huge conglomorate, while WWE was run by one man.The WCW was great, as so was WWE. WCW was just the first one to have bad programming, but it wasn't as bad as the WWE crap today.

    This show was the last version of classic professional wrestling at a national level before Sports Entertainment ended. During the Eric Bischoff regime, the show was great and consistent, until the management at Time Warner decided to screw things around (what a surprise!), and try to bring in some guys from the WWF. When WCW Monday Nitro died in 2001, so did a great era in professional wrestling.
