What a great thing these were. I remember many a sleepy Tuesdays in school because I started to watch the Nitro replay and just kept watching. Anyone remember anything about them? I believe they came on at 11 Central, but it may have been midnight. I assume they got decent ratings as well, as wrestling was as hot as ever when they started doing them. When did they stop doing them?

Believe 97 or 98 when they stop doing them.
They were a perfect fit if you didn't have a USA or TNT West Cost Feed.
So you could watch Raw first then Catch Nitro later

So you could watch Raw first then Catch Nitro later I remember catching the Malone/Hogan showdown on a replay, so I know it was at least 98 when it was stopped. It was perfect if you got immersed in Raw, and could catch-up on Nitro later on.

It was great, I just had to tell myself "Don't watch Nitro at 7, wait until 10." I watched Nitro at 7. Turned to Raw at 8. Watched Nitro again as I got ready for work. (I worked graveyard shift.)

They never stopped doing them up until the final show they did the same for thunder. By like spring 97 I never watched nitro live I always recorded the replay and I never watched thunder live so the replay was my friend.

I loved having the Nitro replay. Especially in 97 because I was so into the whole Hart Foundation storyline on Raw. I'd miss big parts of Nitro that I could catch up with later that night. Sometimes I'd find out that I missed some awesome cruiserweight match earlier and I'd be so happy that I was able to see later.
