    Welcome to the number one retro wrestling podcast.  Three guys watch back the Monday Night Wars between WCW Nitro and WWE Raw to decide which was the greatest.  Another week of mediocre wrestling as WWF Raw limps its way to Wrestlemania.  The only question is how much longer will the pointless training montages of Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels training for their iron man match can we endure? Lex Luger does probably his best in ring work to date, and thats because he doesn't actually have to wrestle anyone!  Hulk Hogan is still hanging out with the Booty Booty Booty Man while the endless feud involving Ric Flair, Arn Anderson and Macho Man continues. But the real question is can Dave superkick off Gaz's head?!

Oh we have more Billionaire Ted Turner skits, please make it stop!!!!!!

    Once again the number 1 wrestling podcast is back and watching the Monday Night Wars like their lives depend on it!   WCW Nitro Eric Bischoff kicks things off with a bang throwing out the biggest stars going by having Hulk Hogan and Ric Flair square off.  A match where Miss Elizabeth's footwear is pivotal! What a rush the Road Warriors are here and massively underwhelming.  After her shocking debut Madusa is back and shooting on a legit legend for no apparent reason!  And in typical WCW fashion the main event of Macho Man Randy Savage and the Giant is a let down!    We have WWERaw starting to find some momentum perhaps! Well not during the opening match between the British Bulldog and Kevin Nash.  But on a plus point Sunny is back, a new general manager debuts in the most fantastic fashion possible! And finally we get to see Shawn Michaels wrestle a match against the monster Yokozuna.  No prizes for guessing HBK is a bit of a tool, but an entertaining tool.  And HAVE A NICE DAY! Mrs Foley's little baby boy makes his debut!

Over on Nitro Macho Man Randy Savage with a gaggle of hot chicks can't save the day as screwy finishes are the theme of the night.  Will Ric Flair lose his title belt? Will we finally see him actually wearing the belt?  Can Sting and Lex Luger be a harmonious team and win the tag team titles?  Will Hulk Hogan be able to beat One Man Gang, (spoilers) of course he does! But the real question is will Hulk and Savage ever shut up (spoilers) of course they don't?!?!?
