Man, an otherwise fantastic show, but watching In Your House: Canadian Stampede, and dude, seeing Vader sell an Undertaker low-blow by not moving, and morosely looking down at his crotch is HILARIOUS.

Man, at Clash of the Champions XXXIV, Dusty kept calling Benoit vs. Taskmaster a domestic issue. Eerie.
A few days later, at Souled out...man that arena looked cool. I wasn't really a huge fan of the whole focus being on the NWO (I know why it was, but still...), but I liked the aesthetics of the show.

I'm up to January 1998 WCW now. Even back then, Jericho had IT (again, pun totally intended). Great worker, killer finish..and this was the start of his temper tantrum phase. Just great television..

Watched the Razor Ramon collection, they have his debut against Paul Van Dale.
Afterwards Scott Hall says he hopes his daughter didn't take any advice from him.
Yeah, I hear she's a real Princess.

I learned that 1996 Harlem Heat is the perfect tag team.

Was Debra drunk at Backlash 2000? She didn't sound all there when she was the ring announcer for the first match and then she was gone after that with no mention for the rest of the night.

I learned that they'll show footage from episode 31 of TNT on other shows but not upload the actual episode

It almost looks like they took someone's VHS rip that was uploaded to some site and pieced it together to complete Episode 201 of Prime Time

In the episodes leading up to the Crockett Cup 1987 in Baltimore, Maryland, NWA-WCW would always show these neat little videos highlighting the sightseeing venues, what to do there etc..
Seems like something that might be good for the Raws/Smackdowns that lead up to Wrestlemania.

Freddie Blassie watching little kids dressed as WWF wrestlers to promote Full Metal will always be slightly creepy to me.

When they show Savage/Akeem from Superstars, it's missing Gorilla and Bobby's studio segment during the match because WWE used the Superstars master instead of showing the VHS-quality rip from YouTube of the match's Prime Time airing. Also, they show the Blue Blazer tag match joined in progress because the YouTube rip showed it that way. In reality, the match was aired in full back in 1989, and the YT version just removed the opening few minutes so that the video wouldn't be copyright flagged.

WWF trying to push Scott "Ultimate Warrior with a slow air leak" Putski as a light heavyweight in 1997 is hilarious. That knee injury at Ground Zero, though, is gruesome, and no laughing matter.

I love how The Undertaker just sits perfectly still while Vader goes off on the interviewer in Kuwait.
