I usually flipped back and forth between both shows.

We had a tv in the kitchen that we had Nitro on, then a big screen tv in the family room that had Raw, we could watch both at the same time. But over the years I've done the following...
Watch Raw skip Nitro. (during it's dying days) Flip between both. Watch Raw then watch the Nitro replay

I watched Nitro live and had a friend record Raw as I was a huge WCW fan especially during 1995-early 98.

Watched Raw live, then Nitro replay (as I used to watch it in french since TSN ran it at ungodly hours).

in the uk Raw ran from 10pm till midnight on Sky Sports and Nitro ran 9-12 on TNT so I watched the first hour of Nitro, then watched RAW and wood change to Nitro at the breaks to see what was happening quickly then after about 2-3 minutes go back to RAW.

For most of the time I had my remote in my hands at all, with my trigger finger on the "last channel" button for easy access to the other show.
Once WCW started running Nitro on a replay, I would watch Raw then Nitro after. That would make my Monday night wrestling last a full 5 hours.

WCW did perfect the art of the after hours encore of wrestling. I would like an encore for Raw. That would be sweet.

Here in Canada Raw and Nitro used to be on the same channel, so they'd show Raw live on monday, and then a tape of Nitro on tuesday. Usually I'd watch them when they were on, but being that I was a little snot nosed WWE mark I generally never even gave WCW a chance (hmm that sounds like some people around here these days).

I took the monday night wars beyond television. I watched Raw but I would say that WCW had it going on in the video game department for N64 for awhile. All my wrestling fan friends would bust out WCW/NWO Revenge. We played that game to death.

Same here. I became a big wcw fan in about 98 and this was really helpful ;D

I lived in Arizona at the time. We got Nitro live on TNT and Raw taped (from earlier that evening) on USA. 5 hours with only a little overlap. It was great. Too bad football practice started when Nitro started

Russo booked a lot of random shit in 2000, but I still tuned into it to see what he came up with next. You got to love Viagra on the Pole!

Over here Both Raw & WCW were on Friday nights
WCW started at 8:00 WWE started at 9:00
We at least got to see the first hour of WCW before WWE

When Nitro was 3 hrs, I would only watch the first hr then basically all of Raw occasionally flipping back when commercials were playing.

Where I live the station that played WCW and WWE usually played Raw on monday, and Nitro on Wednesday, so I never had any problems choosing.
