Reliving The War is a weekly show that takes an in-depth look at the WWF vs WCW “Monday Night War”. With WWF Raw airing on the USA Network and WCW Nitro airing live on TNT every Monday night, fans would choose which show to watch. This resulted in a TV ratings battle between the two companies. This time period in pro wrestling saw record viewers tuning in every week to see the likes of Stone Cold Steve Austin, the nWo, Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Goldberg and Sting.
This week on WCW, Hollywood Hogan makes an appearance. The WCW Champion answers Lex Luger's challenge in regards to a match at Road Wild 97. Ric Flair cheapshots Syxx during a promo (while the Outsiders weren't around to help Waltman), Hall and Nash arrive to the building a little later and a main event match gets booked; Chris Benoit & Ric Flair vs Kevin Nash & Scott Hall.
On the WWF channel, we're once again in Canada and the crowd in Halifax, Nova Scotia is seriously fired up for Raw is War & The Hart Foundation. A flag match takes place in the main event, Shawn Michaels confirms his job for SummerSlam 1997, and Bret Hart confronts Vince McMahon at the commentary table.

“Shawn Michaels is gonna make a lot of Canadians upset” is perhaps the wrestling understatement of the century.
just imagine if he was part of that ten man tag at Canadian stampede
@Dave White the slur that's Is also a British dish
@Dave White just the first 3 letters means cigarette
@Dave White what did they say?
@@whidoineedthis begins with an F
It is once again time to say that reliving the war is the best show in wrestling right now, not just TH-cam. And also, anyone that's attending AEW Revolution this weekend, please, can we try to get a JAM or Saturday Wright fever sign on camera for our boy Wrestling Bios!
Flash mob Saturday Wright Fever dance in the audience!
I’ll be at Revolution in Dallas and I’ll definitely hold a sign up‼️‼️ We Want The Jam in Purple Letters😂😂
Straight facts my friend better any wrestling show on tv right now
Agreed and I quit watching wrestling many moons ago and just nerd out on YT to get my wrestling fix now but this MJF is having me take a peek back in.
@@asherrosenberg1849 Revolution is in Orlando, Rampage/Battle of the Belts is in Dallas but not until April.
Wishing Scott Hall a speedy recovery. I saw In the news he took a nasty fall and has been hospitalized.
Oh! 😲Had to look it up & source is Jerry Jarrett who says he spoke to Hall, still in hospital, recovering with a broken hip.
@@twig8523 Damnit. :/
He’s on life support now 🤦🏻♂️
🥺😥😢😭
And he’s gone….
I was one section away from Bret when he walked into the stands with the belt. I'll never forget it. Amazing experience
Wrestling bios is the only TH-cam series that has the power to make me stop whatever I'm doing in the middle of doing it, the poop is just going to have to stay in my daughter's diaper for another half an hour
Use some of Bret's Jam on that diaper rash to clear it all up brotherrr
Lmbo
I read this comment while eating my lunch. 🤮 Still laughed my ass off. 😂
Don't let child protective services read this
I hope you're joking
5 weeks without a chinlock, Davey probably is gonna get a medal
I thought you got a coin at four weeks.
5 week chip
I hope he goes on a streak so we get merch
Sadly he might fall off the wagon
Bret reciting the final part of Owen promo is just a big brother being proud of his baby brother.
No other wrestling channel has the jam to try topping this series.
No other channel has the jam of topping this series
No channel has the jam.
They're all lousy stinking hyenas.
They suck this channels toes
MarkyD and OSW are strong and may possess adequate amounts of jam.
I think (but I'm not positive) it was during this time Regal got in trouble for urinating on an air hostess while drunk. It would explain why he dropped the TV title to Dragon so fast and his push pretty much ended after this match.
Correct
Those of us who lived in this time know just how even more incredible this series is going to get!
To quote JR “We know business is about to pick up”.
So true
Total facts bro.
Yessir
@@zlinedavid Horsemen business?
Me and my partner literally wait for every episode of reliving the war. Seriously dude, you make our night. Thank you so much for the content and please don't stop. Wrestling bios rules!
I wish I had a partner to watch wrestling bios with 😵😂 you've got somethin special there for sure!!
@@Bmoney88x lol don't we all, my friend
Got my Dog to watch with.... missus is too busy watching weird looking folks prancing around, acting up on tik tok....
..... no similarities she says... pffft
Am really looking forward to this episode! I'm from Halifax NS and I WAS AT THIS RAW!!! It was awesome!!! Fingers crossed Raw wins this weeks episode.
"Back in the day" I always watched RAW, and a buddy of mine was a bigger fan of NITRO... We would record the show we were watching on a ol' VHS tape, and trade with each other the next day at school..
Tape trading was a part of wrestling for a good 15 years, early 80s-mid 90s.
The original reliving the war 😂😂
Sign at 3:21 "Undertaker is a Necrophile" lmao
I was waiting for this episode for some time. I attended a WWF House Show event two days before this RAW show in 97. Probably the best live wrestling card I got to see in person to this day. One of those moments that I fondly look back and is a major reason why I'm still part of the fandom today.
Scott Taylor vs Leif Cassidy
The Godwinns vs The Headbangers
Faarooq & Kama vs The New Blackjacks
Brian Pillman vs Flash Funk
Ken Shamrock vs The British Bulldog
Goldust vs Hunter Hearst Helmsley (w/Chyna)
Bret Hart & Owen Hart vs Dude Love & Steve Austin
The Undertaker vs Vader (Casket Match)
What was great about the Hart Foundation was the reception they would get in a tale of 2 countries from Canada to the US. It was great times as a fan.
It was such a unique storyline. One of the best, if not the best ever. I really do feel it peaked with The Canadian Stampede PPV.
Being outside of the USA. I wouldn’t call it a “heel turn” by Bret. I would say the fans turned on Bret, they were the heels. Where as everywhere else, not just Canada, Bret, along with The Hart Foundation, were still viewed as baby faces. Now that’s how you book a wrestling angle and storyline. The likes of what WCW couldn’t dream of.
@@martynodonnell8467 so many companies (including WWE) have tried to recreate this storyline but it never works becuse without Bret, Shawn, Austin, Foley, Vince, Owen, Bulldog, JR……wait what was i saying? What a ducking list of legends. All at once.
@@JPD2587 - they killed Owen. If Owen didn't injure Austin the Vince feud wouldn't have been a fun thing... go figure an axial load made him Top 5 of that era on Most Popular/Successful Wrestlers.
@@martynodonnell8467 I was only 4 years old when this episode aired on Monday July 21 1997. But being a professional wrestling fan. I saw Eric Bishoff do a interview with Michael Landsberg in Canada. 1 year later and Landsberg asked Bishoff. Are you going to bring back the United States and Canada storyline. And Eric Bishoff pointed out its boring. It's hard to believe Raw this Night failed to beat Nitro. Raw was a better show. That got 4.1 in the TV Ratings. Only reason they didn't win was because they where not going head to head this night.
@@TheAaronChand WCW, along with Bischoff, had no idea how to book a wrestling show. This has become increasingly apparent watching Reliving The War. They got lucky, during a very downtime for WWF and wrestling in general. They had a couple of, at the time, groundbreaking storylines and turned Hogan heel, during the process. This however became stale very quickly. They didn’t have much else, apart from the NWO
and the cruiser weights. WWF were the better show at the start of 97 and by far the better show by the end of 97. Bischoffs ego will still tell us otherwise though.
Jim Cornette has multiple great backstage stories about this show. Main one being his fall out with Kevin Dunn and calling him a bucktooth beaver during a production meeting. Mainly because this being the in ring debut of The Patriot totally screwed him over, which it did.
Well, I'm still wondering about the Patriot.
You know Jim...I find you tiresome.
Do you know what episode this is?
@@bobmarshall8527 Couldn't find an exact excerpt but just look up Cornette and Dunne or Beaver or Patriot. There are multiple and he has told it multiple times. I think the youshoot excerpt is the original.
@@Hyde_Hill cheers mate I’ll have a look
This series has really become the highlight of my week… and has reignited my love for wrestling.
Thank you so much
Shawn was always an absolute gem when he was cutting heel promos, especially in Canada.. man it’s crazy how many guys have struggled to get over as a baby face but then immediately just turn it on when they become a heel.. if u can’t get em to love ya, make em love to hate ya
it's waaaay easier to be a Heel and most Wrestlers think it's more fun too.
@@kevindifranco3494 i dont know if I’d say it’s easier, but u can def have a lot more fun with it
Eddie and Hector Guerrero could totally have pulled off a Kurt/Eric Angle switch.
Still remember the noticeable difference in crowd "pop" with Hart Foundation during Canadian live shows
Whether you loved or loathed them, that overwhelming attendance made you respect their abilities 100%
Vince McMahon would refer to Mongo’s unique move as whatamanuver!
Vince McMahon, classic commentary at its best. While informing the fans of all the technical names for the holds and moves.
Just bought a Saturday Wright Fever shirt. Keep up the good work homie ! This series has made me a wrestling fan again !
Ditto
@@star22let1 Was your bratwurst affected?
The Battle of the Brian's was an epic struggle for supremacy. Two titans of wrestling clashed, one stood and one fell. A truly once in a lifetime match.
I'm disappointed that the match didnt get its own 25 minute video...
I remember watching this as a kid. I know hart was a heel but that toilet bowl line was pure genius. I remember thinking to myself to use that on someone
Didnt remember how soft Taker was doing is Chokeslam back then . Great content as usual 🙂
The only notification I get on TH-cam that will make me drop whatever I’m doing. different class.
I love this series. I was in High school during the Monday Night Wars so it brings back some good memories. I stopped watching wrestling for the longest time but the last couple years I have started watching again especially because of the emergence of AEW. WWE now having legit competition is forcing both companies to step up their game. On top of that you get to see how much talent there really is out there. With AEWs acquisition of ROH wrestling has now, for me anyways, gotten that much more interesting…..
"Sting or be stingin'" - Psane Sid
I need a Michael's Smile Finder shirt...
The work you do shouldn’t go unnoticed man. You’re the best thing on TH-cam.
i actually attended this event when i was a little boy in halifax, i was ten at the time and now im 35 years old. during the shawn michaels promo the whole crowd was screaming and chanting "faggot, faggot,faggot" the whole entire time. it was electric energy at this event. !!!!!!! thanks for acknowledging that the crowd was amazing !! huge props to wrestlingbios for continuing on with reliving the war. *you wanna war ?????* lol
I hope Davey is doing okay, it's dangerous going "cold turkey" but if anyone can do it, he can, one day at a time. Hopefully by the end of this episode Davey is still clean. Thank u so much for all of your content and awesome commentary!!!
I hear chinlock withdrawal can be a bastard.
Anyone trying "Cold Turkey" has 0 understanding of Homeostasis and Psychoactive Substances... your "Will Power" might be strong AF but it doesn't fix the issue. I was an opioid addict and at the point I was spending $60 a day on Fentanyl patches to not be sick... then a glock 2 inches from my head was it. BTW, I can stop opioid w/d by 90% and in 10 days have you done. And no I don't use Subs or Methadone. That's just another opioid replacing the DOC.
@@kevindifranco3494 Jesus dude. It's a joke, they are talking about "chinlock addiction." It's a running joke on this channel.
@@madamefeast4824 -doh!!! -*-*Opens mouth-** inserts foot** lmao.
How did you miss a jolly green giant joke opportunity lol
Welcome to Thursday Afternoon Reliving the War. The best Wrestling show on TH-cam and anywhere else I can think of. Thanks again for making this for our entertainment.
You leave this fishing comment a lot..
@@rancidcrawfish What am I fishing for? I enjoy the content and am being truthful.
@mrmoose6619
You're fishing for likes with the copy&paste comment, niggaa.
Do better.
Good thing I didn't have to wait until Summer Slam for this episode of Reliving the War!
Loving this series. Such hard work you put in them and you just keep pumpin' out the videos. Can't ask for more =)
The stock footage brothers of destruction gimmick is absolutely wonderful. Gets me every single time. Spooky panda bear Kane is the best Kane.
Hulk Hogan didn't realize when he made that promo that only a couple of years later, the WWF would have two stars that would be bigger than Hogan ever was.
The highlight of any Thursday
Scott broke his hip he fell recently
this channel has become one of my fav it allows me to relife my childhood thank you i look foward to watching more great videos in the furture thank you for doing these.
we have come so far, and i cant wait every week for a new episode. this is one of my favorite things on the youtubes, its bringing back a lot of great memory's of watching this as it was coming out.

I think they are cheaper at bust buy.
Anybody else get fukin hyped hearing that opening theme on a Thursday afternoon!?
This is the channel that has a davy boy smith head lock on wrestling TH-cam never miss a upload
I was born during this episode of Raw!
I remember when Bret slapped the headset off Vince. The look on Vince's face. That, was the first sighting of Mr McMahon!
Damn, wish I could name up to 3 matches in the upcoming '97 SummerSlam...
Those two chokeslams from Taker looked so gentle lol.
Another Thursday together with the Chinlock Legion.
Need to go to chin savers, they help😂😂😂. Watch last week's episode to see what I mean.
I still remember that toilet bowl promo 😆
No Saturday Wright Fever this week: 😞
Saturday Wright Fever T-shirts available: 😀
I was debating on buying a shirt. And then you debuted the Saturday Wright Fever shirt. You got yourself a sale boss!
I’ve found a new appreciation for Paul Bearer watching RELIVING THE WAR.
“ MURDERER!”
"Imagine Jeff Jarrett asking you to be his best friend?" I damn near spit beer all over the place. Lol!
BTW, awesome Saturday Wright Fever shirts! I may have to spend my Christmas money on something other than liquor this year.
*El Kabongs Double J*
You're the BEST friend I ever had.
His little Gobbledigooker is a damn deep cut reference and I love it
When dude love applies the mandible claw it’s known as the love handle 🤣
Love watching these videos every week!
Before I listen.. 2 legit to quit at the bar and I thought of you. had a flashback from a previous episode lol
I love the segment when Paul asks JR if he is calling him a liar. JR'S response was great.
That intro gets me every time waaay more than it should! Haha
13:13 Larry Zbyszko says on commentary, in regards to Debra, that ' ' women are like elephants: they are great to look at but you don't want to owe one. ' ' 😂😂 What do you think?
*pats self on the back* like Barry Horowitz.
I attended this Raw Is War/Warzone taping.
You’re 100% correct in the crowd’s reaction throughout the night. It was incredible to witness it live. Though not mentioned, Taker got one helluva pop too.
This would of been my second taping (Superstars taping in November 92).
I was there for Wrestlemania X8, Raw & Smackdown afterwards plus a few other taping.
This one has multiple segments I will always remember compared to others with one worthy to compare. Rock/Hogan at WM & the ovation for Hulk the night after in Montreal.
I watch(listen to) this video while working, then when I'm off work, I play wrestling booking simulators.
Looks like Shawn had the coke sweats 😓 😳
I didn't see his fanny pack. Maybe hunter was carrying his "bags" that night.
When someone asks wrestling bios
"How much do u know about wrestling"?
Wresting bios
"Yes"
"Imagine Jeff Jarrett asking you to be his best friend... Fuckoff Jeff" 😂😂😂
Dam dude I love this channel... you build it up right, and keep it interesting
This flag match was one on of the best of Raw VHS tapes, man I wore that thing out always loved this match
Another awesome upload from the greatest wrestling channel on the planet!
The laying down hogan joke was masterful
93 and counting
I watch your videos while eating listen to them while driving or cooking
Sir you are a legend and one of the best you tubers
It gives me chills down the spine reliving after 25 years these era of my life as a wrestling fan
From Italy thank you
man, your stock footage game is on point 😆🤣
You deserve a million subs, absolute legend
Konnan was such a good fit in the nWo. I honestly am surprised it took as long as it did, especially after his gimmick change and he was still hanging around the Dungeon of Doom.
Love these vids but it would be cool if we could get a few more Austin promo clips during these. His promos at this time were the highlight of Monday nights.
After all this time, this is still the best series ever.
Yeah I loved that week in the Monday Night Wars!! The Canada vs USA storyline was FIRE!!
I really like that image of the luchadore group standing united.
Ughhh! This episode of Raw was originally scheduled for my hometown but it got moved to Halifax for some reason. It was bittersweet watching it on TV. Such a good episode but I was wishing I was there live.
We ain’t got to wait til summerslam has serious t-shirt potential
These chin lock comments never get old. Solid gold My man
14:23 Oh my god. That's the funniest thing I've heard all week 😂
Guys.... guess what??
We don't have to wait til summer...... JAM 🤣🤣🤣🤣🙄..... il get my coat....
Hands down the best event I ever been too! Still have my ticket! Still watch wrestling to this day!!!!!!???
“Austin applies the chin lock and looks Davy directly in the eyes” lol
