Raw did it in 1999 as well I didn't know that. I watched the show with eagle eyes. Apparently Nitro got just over 10,000. I don't understand. Has the Superdome been refurbed or something ? I suppose they could have just ran a corner of the building, like TNA did the Alamodome a few years ago.

That creepy animal furry mascot thing WCW had at their shows was named Wildcat Willy.

At EC 2010 McCool the Spotlight Stealer was at her full blast, when a perfectly good Diva's title match which had been built for weeks was bait and switched into a tag team match
Also Punk made a Watchmen reference in his entrance

El Puerto Ricano is all over these episodes of ECW Hardcore TV. Also Super Nova getting a power ranger chant way before MVP.
Also the testicular trauma that Dreamer went through is amazing.

The Goldust/Marlena/Pillman angle is really disturbing watching it again. It's a great heat magnet for Pillman, but with them pushing the idea that he's having sex with Marlena, he's essentially raping her every day since she's very clearly an unwilling participant. This makes Lawler's catcalls and lewd comments even more uncomfortable.

That ECW had Stevie & Meanie pretend to be Public Enemy just to rag on WWE having the Fake Outsiders.

To follow up, they also show a video of Pillman and Marlena in bed together and she looks terrified so yeah Pillman is raping her on a nightly basis.

The Renegade may very well have been the worst wrestler in either promotion during the Monday Night Wars. He could barely stomp someone without falling over.

It's been said that if Pillman didn't die, the plan was that the next time he wrestled Goldust, Marlena would turn heel. They would probably have claimed that she gave Pillman the loaded purse at Ground Zero on purpose.
