Then, we head back to 1994 when Hulkamania had made a trip down to Atlanta and Ted Turner's WCW and review their Clash of The Champions 28 card from Cedar Rapids featuring Ricky Steamboat vs. Steve Austin, Inoki vs. Regal, and Flair vs. Hogan (maybe). In what turned out to be an amazing Clash of the Champions card! Review starts at 58:10.

Vince Russo? WCW Thunder? Hulk Hogan and Kevin Nash? And what was the company's ultimate achievement? Strap yourselves in for one more memory-fueled visit to Atlanta.

The pro wrestling world can't stop talking about NITRO: The Incredible Rise and Inevitable Collapse of Ted Turner's WCW, Guy Evans's 590-page magnum opus that covers all things World Championship Wrestling. And because we are the best wrestling literature podcast there is, we've brought Guy himself on to discuss what killed WCW, his favorite WCW wrestlers, and how it feels to receive rare praise from Eric Bischoff.

Hello Scumbags and welcome back to Saturday releases. This week I was hoping to get to SummerSlam but I have yet to watch it. First week of school I ran out of time. This podcast is in a sense a special one, I start the podcast out talking about ALL IN, a show which will be tonight September 1st at 4/7 depending where you live I give my match predictions while barely containing my excitement. After all of that I discuss my favorite wrestling promotion WCW. I talk about Thunder cuz duh but I've also been reading the new book NITRO: The Incredible Rise and Inevitable Collapse of Ted Turner's WCW (https://www.amazon.com/NITRO-Incredible-Inevitable-Collapse-Turners/dp/0692139176) a very good read so far (149 pages in) and is the inspiration for me to go back and watch Nitro from the beginning so that is what I did I end the show discussing the First Nitro that aired 9/4/95. Leave questions, comments and concerns to weeklywrestlingwrant@gmail.com or on twitter @webconn69.

In a very special episode of Neal Pruitt's Secrets of WCW Nitro, Neal and Guy discuss the making of NITRO: The Incredible Rise and Inevitable Collapse of Ted Turner's WCW! ORDER THE BOOK NOW AT www.wcwnitrobook.com and Amazon.com! 175,000+ words, 56 chapters, and more new info than you'll believe! Paperback: https://wcwnitrobook.com/item/nitro-the-incredible-rise-and-inevitable-collapse-of-ted-turners-wcw-paperback E-book: https://wcwnitrobook.com/item/nitro-the-incredible-rise-and-inevitable-collapse-of-ted-turners-wcw-e-book Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/NITRO-Incredible-Inevitable-Collapse-Turners/dp/0692139176/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= Synopsis In April 1999, Entertainment Weekly asked its readers what many Americans were surely wondering to themselves: how did wrestling get so big? As a consequence of the heated ratings competition between World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), the spectacle had taken over Monday nights on prime-time cable television. But in a departure from the family-friendly programming produced by the last industry boom - the 1980s wave, which made household names of Hulk Hogan, 'Rowdy' Roddy Piper and Andre the Giant - the new era of wrestling combined stunning athleticism with a raunchy sex appeal, engrossing story lines and novel production techniques that reflected a changing society and its shifting values. Once again, wrestling was a ubiquitous phenomenon - only this time, it seemed as though the fad would never end. With both WCW and WWF expanding into other forms of entertainment - movies, video games, music and the like - the potential for growth appeared to be limitless. But with uncertainty surrounding its corporate future, and increasingly uninspired programming eroding its audience, WCW stood on the verge of collapse. Three years into a five-year plan devised by its charismatic leader - a former Blue Ribbon Foods salesman named Eric Bischoff - the company whose unexpected ascension initiated the entire boom was operating on borrowed time. For by the end of the five-year plan, WCW ceased to exist. But NITRO is a story about much more than WCW and the Monday Night Wars. It is a story of an era, a time in which the media and cultural landscape precipitated - and later supported - pro wrestling's mainstream popularity. It is a story of how a company made in the image of an intuitively brilliant risk-taker betrayed its original promise. It is a story of how a handful of men, each struggling with their own limitations, facilitated a public obsession that changed television forever. And so, with the inside knowledge of a journalist, the perspective of a historian, and the passion of a fan, author Guy Evans provides a fresh look at an unfortunate inevitability - the downfall of World Championship Wrestling. Bolstered by exclusive interviews with over 120 former TBS and WCW employees, NITRO is the definitive picture of the last wrestling boom. Featuring exclusive interviews and comments from: Eric Bischoff, fmr. President of World Championship Wrestling; Harvey Schiller, fmr. President of Turner Sports; Jamie Kellner, fmr. CEO of Turner Broadcasting System; Bill Burke, fmr. President of TBS network; Joe Uva, fmr. President of Turner Entertainment Sales and Marketing; Scot Safon, fmr.
