I agree HHH needs less mic time, the Stimg thing was pretty cool and well done.
Fastlane is shaping up well as Rusev seems to have come on leaps and bounds as well. Good promos when they stop referencing Putin.
Was it me or were there a fair few 'No' chants as well as lots of 'Yes' chants during the Bryan bit? The smarks are out smarking the smarks.

There are just so many great moments in WCW I still to this day can't comprehend how the company was run into the ground within the space of about a year and a half.
Like today. Despite the complete absurdity of the conclusion of Halloween Havoc 95 I couldn't wait and jumped right into the following night's Nitro (in which as it turned out nothing of real note happened at all and they never explained how The Giant survived the fall off Cobo Hall which they promised to do).
Speaking of which, it appeared as if the insinuation was that he fell into the water (despite it being too far away, but in storyline it wasn't supposed to be - and it was so dark you couldn't tell) or, as Bobby Heenan stated, there was a ridge on the building and he didn't fall.
As for the monster truck sumo match, which according to the commentators had "changed wrestling forever" there's no denying the crowd did in fact appear to be cheering it.

Aye its pretty crazy remember watching WCW at my friends on TNT and was always awesome.
Think they got desperate to compete, I'm sure the Monday Night Wars said there was 15 title changes in last 6 months

Rikishi's going in the hall of fame? I met him at Axxess 2013. He was a bit of a banana split.

I hope you put him in his place.
In terms of WWE, I can't wait for the 9000th Big Show
vs. Kane feud. I look forward to it main eventing the next 5 RAWs.

Looking back at the Network and when he first came to the WWE, i forgotten just how slim the Big Show actually was back then. He could move pretty quick for his size as well.
Just caught up with Raw and some of the crowd reactions were interesting that it's almost like the crowd weren't sure who they wanted to cheer for. Reigns got a good reaction to start off with but then got booed when he got in Bryan's face. Bryan got a huge pop at the start but then seemed to get a few "No" chants on occasions, especially when Heyman asked if they thought he could beat Lesnar (who also got face like cheers as well).

Agreed the crowd was strange, all over the place.

Yeah that should be class. The whole thing is well set up, baffles me how they get it so wrong with raw etc.

After watching his debut in WCW and hearing that he was brand new to the business I'm surprised at just how good he was. He had confidence that you don't see from new guys very often.

He had the look and aura alright,but bar his cartoonish laughing,his promos were weirdly whispery
Mental times though,I love when he drove over Hogans Harley in the monster truck and he just sat there laughing for ages while Hogan shouted and pretended he couldn't reach him

His promos were better than Hogan's for the most part.
Early Nitro is great. It's 45 minutes, and very easy to watch. How anyone ever thought going to two or three hours was a good idea I'll never know.

Chyna has accused Triple H of hitting her in an interview with, of all people, Vince Russo:
http://www.cagesideseats.com/wwe/2015/2 ... lationshipTriple H & WWE have sent out the following:
The false statements and reckless allegations made by Joan Laurer (aka Chyna) on a recent podcast about a physical dispute are a complete fabrication. While Joan has had significant struggles in life, this does not justify making such claims.
