Thauros posted:I had no clue Sabu was in 1995 WCW, much less that he wrestled Jerry Lynn. I'll have to start reading those old newsletters, I've always skipped them since I wasn't following wrestling at all in that period. Reading about Big Show's major debut was interesting as well, don't usually think about him being around that long even though I remember his nWo period. WCW had some real interesting transition periods, '95 being one of them with the influx of ECW guys and luchadores. The other being ~1990 or so with the AWA castoffs and japanese guys.

Paper Jam Dipper posted:See I disagree about the production. Aesthetically, Nitro was a better set than Raw until around 1999 (when WCW changed to the big C and Raw re-worked their tron set). The video quality was the same and more importantly, Nitro treated their show like a sports program instead of a television program so it felt like you were watching the sport of professional wrestling instead of a morning soap based around wrestlers. Bingo. Production wise, WCW always made "sense", there was always a reason for the camera to be there. They acknowledged it was being filmed. Attacks that occured "off grounds" or backstage that were on camera? They explained why there was a camera, or had the wrestlers film it. Simple flow and continuity stuff that the WWF never picked up on, instead sort of going with a 4th wall mentality to the filming.

Diabolik900 posted:I didn't watch enough WCW to say whether they were really any better this, but that has always bugged me about WWF TV since about 1997. The backstage segments don't make sense. The wrestlers are constantly filmed backstage, but they're apparently not aware of it (except when they are) but the other wrestlers may be aware of what was shown on TV (except when they're not). And the announcers (who seem to spend plenty of time interacting with the wrestlers) are aware of everything. It's just so inconsistent. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_KCuwQrsmw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FZxAeigcvg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEOipP1Jt5o WCW was good for explaining why you saw something.

Yes. (See what I did there?) They even mentioned his brief WCW Tenure when that song came out and he played it on a Nitro.

The American Dream posted:Who the hell was 911 in wcw? I remember seeing him briefly in ecw then he disappeared. Probably the same reason that Damien Kane was under a WCW contract at some point. Pretty much everyone from ECW got at least a tryout match. Nitro also ran Philly the night after Barely Legal, I remember 911 was on that show.
