I remember really liking this episode of Nitro at the time, I had it on tape and watched the Flair/Savage, Giant/Steiner and Malenko/Mysterio matches a lot. Plus they did a great job of hyping up the next PPV Bash at the Beach 96.

The MECCA, now UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena, is right next to the Bradley Center, which is where WWE currently holds shows. When I was there for Fastlane back in February, I was tempted to walk across the street and just randomly start cutting the Austin 3:16 promo.

In light of what happens here,with the 3:16 promo and Vince marketing it to high heaven, it’s crazy when you think that Trips was scheduled to win it. There is no way he could/can come up with catchphrase like that.

I’m glad your still doing these. Worried you’d stopped and you can’t stop until you’ve done Hogans heel turn

Coming up next: WCW Bash at the Beach WHO'S THAT THIRD MAN? Truly a game changer in wrestling this night. That gets said a lot but in this case it truly was. Though I understand that Hogan, despite what he says now, was originally reluctant to turn heel but then realised he was getting left behind and so jumped on the band wagon. Great move but he should’ve turned heel at least 2 years ago back when he faced Flair and was getting booed back then.

I think "whose side is he on" is a perfect call, given it'd be ludicrously obvious if Heenan started liking Hogan all of a sudden or being all for him. I've never seen an a good argument for how Heenan ruins anything about that, context is king in this case.

Cornette does a good job selling the reveal. I guess that's one of Sid's strong points, he moved from company to company enough to rarely outstay his welcome, and still manage to feel somewhat special.
