I dont remember it being so weird. And I know I was watching it pretty frequently back in 95.

95 is basically a year of them being stuck in "plot to destroy hulkimania" where cartoon characters plot to kill the superhero hulk hogan

I mean, there was a lot less misogyny than the last time I watched. That's a plus.

It comes back in full force a few years later when they hire some guys from WWE to write for them (early 2000, and WCW folded in 2001 so it tells you how bad the writing got).

Also Im misremembering my timelines. I started watching frequently when Nitro moved to the 2 hour shows in late '96.

The best bit about this week's Nitro is that it's filmed in Ric's home town and they do not like the upstart hulk hogan
