I was surprised that Tony Schiavone referred to Flair being Arn Anderson's cousin at Fall Brawl 1995, I thought that had long been dropped and forgotten since the 80's. On a similar note I'm watching the last Clash of the Champions of '95 and Hogan made reference to himself being Irish. Thought that was something they dropped pre-Wrestlemania 1.

Anyone watching the Nitros and the corresponding pay per views for that month? I'm in November of 96 now so World War 3 is coming up. Yes, or at least I will once I finish watching the PPVs and Clashes that aired before Nitro. Just have to finish Summerslam '95 and the last Clash which is the one with Hogan visiting the Dungeon of Doom apparently.

I hate that they keep referring to it as a "tank". It was a jeep with a gun mounted to the back.

That Dennis Rodman was associating with Hogan in his Hulkamania days (see Bash of the Beach '95). Always thought he didn't come around until the nWo.

Cody Rhodes was at Slamboree '95 (when dusty was inducted into WCW Hall of Fame).

In 1995 WWF ran adds featuring space aliens who declared the only reasons they won't destroy the Earth is because of the existence of the WWF.

That the Harris Twins and the Blu Brothers were the same people. Didn't recognize them with all that hair.
Also they apparently didn't recognize in WCW that Meng was the same person as Haku from WWF because they kept talking about how he made a transformation from bodyguard to wrestler as if he had never wrestled previously.

I forgot to mention this and I can't remember exactly what show it was on but I think Bobby Heenan may have started the whole, "Greatest night in the history of our sport!" thing.
I believe it was the PPV or Clash where Hogan was attacked by the mysterious masked man early on in his WCW career when making his entrance. It was basically a reenactment of the whole Tonya Harding thing with Hogan's knee being taken out and having to go to the hospital.
Tony says, "This is the worst night in the history of our sport" with Heenan correcting him and saying, "No it's the GREATEST night in the history of our sport!"

That The Patriot wrestled in WCW and was in a team with Bagwell. Always thought he was just some indy wrestler they brought in to feud with Bret in WWF.

There was a backdoor pilot for WCW RAW on WWF RAW. It was terrible.

LOL thats the Soviet national anthem. Not the Russian national anthem. Not even the same thing. Shake my f-ing head at WWE thinking we are idiots. I don't know Russian but isn't the current Russian national anthem is the Soviet national anthem with different lyrics? You're correct. Putin changed it back to the Soviet song but with different lyrics.

My Network feed just did a strange fast-forward glitch I haven't seen before. It was kind of funny.

That Lord Steven Regal was actually supposed to be a member of the House of Lords.
Also that the Guardian Angel would motion in the ring as if he were twirling his nightstick despite not holding anything.

Wrestling today sucks! It's nothing but a soap opera now! I miss the days of Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, and Miss Elizabeth!
