@@ZBR_ProXP While I definitely agree that 97 WCW>98 WCW, and the match quality of 97 WWF was definitely the best of the attitude era. 98 was the hottest year in pro wrestling history from a financial and viewership perspective. If you include every metric though, 98 wins by a landslide.
Absolutely! I was thinking the same thing earlier and I'm glad it didnt go unnoticed he really kicked it out there and freaking took it . it's beautiful. Mr McMahon should have took some pointers
I can just imagine the amount of wisdom and skill Eddie and Chris could've given to nowadays and 2010s talent would've been unbelievable. RIP to both men and Chris's family.
@@choke9270 in that case Brian Pillman doesn't deserve to RIP. he beat his wife on numerous occasions. Sean O'Haire doesn't either he sexually assaulted a woman.
Welcome to Thursday Afternoon Reliving the War. The best wrestling show on the TH-cams... 300k people can't be wrong. Thanks again for another trip down memory lane.
Almost all the fans he was talking about/for in that segment don't watch wrestling anymore in 2022. Average and casual fans. It's a niche audience of smart marks and hardcore nerds now, not a regular mainstream audience with various levels of interest - or lack therof - beyond the actual shows and matches. Pro wrestling has lost four fifths of the audience it used to have. 80%! Show me one single person today who goes to shows regularly and watches the TV shows every week, who only cares about that and doesn't keep up with all the stuff going on in and around the promotion and the business in general. The biggest, most important, single most talked about fight in all of pro wrestling this year has been the real one behind the scenes in CM Punk's dressing room - that we will never see. What does _that_ tell you about the current state of pro wrestling? Basically everything in the business that _isn't_ on the shows and in the rings is more important and gets more media coverage. You and me are here watching a video about two wrestling TV shows from a quarter of a century ago, instead of videos of current matches. Cornette can be criticised for how confrontational he phrases some of his statements, but I dare anyone to refute the contents of most of his opinion pieces with facts that prove he's wrong. So far, everyone who tried that failed, because the facts support his view of the state current wrestling. Smallest audience ever, since the beginning of the TV era of pro wrestling, smallest number of house shows ever, declining ticket sales for TV tapings, least believable product and convincing "characters" ever, exponentially more and worse injuries among performers who only work once or twice a week now, than in the territory days when they worked five or six times per week, sometimes twice in one day. The current AEW champion is a guy who can't throw a believable working punch to save his life, looks like a smelly gas station attendant with a substance abuse problem, and blades in every match - making it completely meaningless. Nobody outside the wrestling mark bubble, in the mainstream entertainment audience, has any idea who he is. Couldn't even dream of being a guest on a late night show, like top wrestlers used to be all the time. Learn the difference between a worked TV segment of a WWF employee and office member (based mostly on Jim's real opinions at the time, nevertheless) - and reviews/editorials of an independent person who has retired from the business and bases his opinions on an unparalleled wealth of experience and knowledge. Jim has done every job there is in and around the business. From working at a concessions stand, being a ring photographer, performer, agent, talent agent, talent scout, trainer and developer, producer, writer, booker, match type and finish inventor (all the various Midnight Express finishes, HIC and Triple Threat matches), owner and co-owner of two wrestling promotions and a merchandise and memorabilia "empire", noted historian and book author, interviewer and host, podcaster. Not to mention that he performed in both "Starrcade" and "WrestleMania" main events, how many people have that on their resume? Jim's podcast has more listeners than AEW "Dynamite" has viewers. I would think about that for a second...
Though Bret was leaving why didn't WWE turn Hart Foundation babyfaces when they were going after DX or NOD. Fans were popping for the Hart's. 97 was best year in wrestling
You're a TH-cam beast man. Big props for doing this. It's fun looking back and this time. I loved wrestling at this time and was a huge NWO fan at the time.
I've been saying this is the best show on TH-cam since the beginning! I love this show! Man I'ma be sad when it's all over! Anything good has to always end unfortunately. EVERYTHING!
Another Thursday complete. Congratulations on 300k subs. I've been here since before reliving the wars started so I'm very proud of how much the channel has grown. Keep up the good work
I liked Taka, I lost track of him after that royal rumble 2000 or 2001 where he landed on his face. I think after his WWF run he went back to Japan and stayed there.
Btw you make my Thursdays.... my whole life ive had pain & illness issues chronic issues i reallly honestly appreciate you doing your show on Thursday sometimes i watch sunday & tuesday as well thank you for making a big difference in my life giving me something amazing to look forward too YBIC-JHWR
So nostalgic, I’m such a big fan of this series! I now find myself looking forward to Thursdays reliving the war the same way I would look forward to Monday nights to watch Raw and Nitro lol. So cool.
As a resident of Mississippi, i laugh every time you call Biloxi bollocks. Your vids are the only ones I stop what Im doing for. Congrats on 300k, keep up the amazing work
This episode is one of the first Nitro shows I recall seeing. The many event scene was pretty hot at the time. Piper, DDP and Sting were just three of their top level babyfaces.
As an 18 year old who started watching wwe in the late 2000s I really appreciate your content. I never got to experience this as it happened but these videos are are a great alternative
"Professional life savers gotta professionally save lives" is my jam. Slap that one on a t-shirt and throw it into your store, my man. I gotta have it!
I think this channel should be inducted into the Hall of Fame. If for nothing else reigniting many a fans interest in the WWE network. I can’t be the only wrestling fan and subscriber to this channel who took out a monthly subscription on the WWE network to relive the shows and angles covered by this channel.
@@martynodonnell8467 there are many brotha, this channel brings old school wrestling fans back to the good times, I absolutely loved this time as a kid so every one of these videos brings me back.
To me all of this was the attitude era, and on a personal note, I never met a wrestling fan like this gentleman right here, he does his homework put this all together piece by piece narrated with all the effect and fade in and fade out, hats off to you my brother, you truly have a gift, keep doing what you doing God bless you I really enjoy your content, and I've been in wrestling fan since Bob backlin was the world wrestling federation champion, and the NWA Magnum defeated Wahoo McDaniel for the United States championship in the steel cage on world wide wrestling CTN
Congrats on the 300k Subs ! You deserve it, brother ! Favorite channel on TH-cam ... no competition whatsoever ... it takes me back to when I was a young kid and wrestling was #1 priority ... a time in my life where wrestling helped me get through some very hard times. I have such a vivid memory of these years and this channel brings them all back like they happened yesterday. I’m extremely thankful that I was able to live in this era, tho, and I’m also grateful for this series, because it allows me to relive it all (no pun intended) without the back and forth channel flipping and the circumstances. Amazing to watch these shows again as an adult and noticing so much more than I did when I was just a young kid ... it’s truly a great feeling watching these again. Thank you for what you do 🤙🏻
I hope you make a video with every single Davey Boy Smith chinlock, as well as every single Saturday Wright Fever, like you did for every single Glacier promo
I always know there’s some point in the video that’s going to have me laughing. This week? Booker’s “little suckas” getting smashed in the top rope. Brilliant. Don’t quit doing what you’re doing.
Love tuning into this every week from week 1 but can't deny I'm mostly only here for RAW now, bored to death of the NWO it only gets interesting when Sting shows up, Eddy & Benoit matches are always quality and never had much time for Goldberg back then or now.
Yeah I’m in the same boat. The main event of WCW was past stale and had been for a long time, by this point. I think the NWO and Hogan on top as a heel lasted about 3-6 months before it was stale. It was still Hogan in the main event. Doing what he’d always done but as a heel. The original formation of the NWO along with the invasion angle was pure gold though. The WCW undercard and especially the cruiserweights was what made WCW stand out, not it’s stale main event. Problem was while WWF were busy making new stars. WCW in 99 were for a huge part still putting on the same matches they had 2 or 3 years prior. They had little idea how to make new stars. WWF most definitely had the better product from around the start of 97 onwards and continued to get better. While the opposite is true of WCW. This is something I’ve learned through this channel and this incredible series.
I remember being more confused than anything with the WWF storylines at this time, with ALL the different factions. Getting to ‘relive’ those storylines, I find myself feeling the exact same way. Knowing what’s coming, this is a very exciting time, but I feel that my excitement is more stoked by the benefit of hindsight than how the WWF actually handled their storytelling during this groundbreaking transition they were going through. It’s cool to see them actually evolving and taking risks, but I felt that the heat between Shawn & Bret had been watered down by all the other factions crossing over. It felt like every faction was playing heel, with only Stone Cold acting as an intermediate face. I wonder how much of it was by design vs how much just kind of shook out organically. Either way, super entertaining… even the second time around. Love your channel, mate! Thanks for all you do.
And Austin couldn’t even wrestle post summerslam. Undertaker was there too but he was busy with Kane. But in fairness the hart foundation became round about faces again after the DX official formation. And also in fairness, DX were getting tons of heat so Vince made the right call ultimately
GOLDBERG isn't even 5-0 yet and they send Wrath out for the ultra squash! Doesn't even get his gear off. That Kane undertaker montage was epic and hopefully subverts certain claims. Best wishes on 300k!
Just a few days away from a PPV that started out incredibly then only went downhill from there. Halloween Havoc beckons, as the WWF propels towards maybe the most pivotal moment of the War.
Welcome back to Thursday Reliving The War, we got lead-ups to two hellacious PPV’s on WWF and WCW, will there be fifty chin-locks? Who knows, watch to find out!
Just received my Sweet Merch, and I've got to say that the quality of these t-shirts and hoodies are awesome!!! I cant wait for the next Bret Hart shirt....Who are YOU to doubt El Dandy!?
That Brian Christopher sell job of the low blow is the best I’ve ever seen. Like a 4 year old that gets told no when he asks for M&Ms at the grocery store. Brilliant.
The difference in storyline development is becoming more apparent each week. Raw with The Nation, Stone Cold, DX, Hart foundation vs Nitro with the NWO take over and Goldberg and great performers like Eddie, Jericho, Benoit and many others with little to no storyline development
Hey everyone! The channel just hit 300k subs as this video went live. Thank you all so much and I hope you enjoy this week's Reliving The War!
Congratulations on the Milestone
congratulations and thanks for one of the most entertaining series out there! i hope that number quadruples. you deserve it and more
We are all thankful that you do this. You bring back great memories and bring us a better understanding of what was going on back then.
Congratulations and thanks for everything!
5 Bratwurst hip thrusts in your honor sir.
Reliving the War takes me back to being 12 years old this day back in 1997. The week wait gives it that much more authenticity.
That’s nice grandpa.
Lol I was 12 then too....wrestling was awesome and explodes over next 2 to 3 years
37 years old hard to belive that was 25 Years ago....I feel ya we old as hell
I was 10 and watched wcw with my dad. DDP was my favorite
Yyyeess!!!! I was 10 yes old! I miss those days!!
You want a war, you're gunna get one.... The signal of the start of my favourite weekly episodic follow along
Same!!!
I agree
Scott halls presence still being felt
I did not expect this show to become Appointment Viewing but every week here I am. This comes before anything else in my queue.
Somebody had a giant “Wrestling Bios” sign in the front row at AEW yesterday. Salute bro!!!
That's awesome
I was there in Kansas city. I dressed up as macho man
I noticed it on TV I thought that awesome
WrestlingBios>AEW. That's just AEW trying to get some of WrestlingBios JAM.
It was probably Alex Wright
We're almost into 1998, arguably the best year in the Wars, can't wait.
I am experiencing hype
Arguably? Nah 98 was easily the best year in the Monday night wars.
Wtf? How so? That’s when everything fell apart. 97 was the best.
@@ZBR_ProXP While I definitely agree that 97 WCW>98 WCW, and the match quality of 97 WWF was definitely the best of the attitude era. 98 was the hottest year in pro wrestling history from a financial and viewership perspective. If you include every metric though, 98 wins by a landslide.
97 is so much better it's not even close.
“You want a “Reliving The War”? You gon’ get one!”

Hey-yo!
Crowd cheering big long pause
Hey Yo
Crowd loses their minds
The stunner that sgt. slaughter took in the intro was one of the best stunner sells right behind the rock
yes! always said that! the way his body like flattened out when it hit.
@@octoman_games I think slaughter messed up the timing and actually took the stunner in the only real way it could hurt you
Dude thank you, nobody EVER gives Sgt Slaughter credit for his Stunner sell
Absolutely! I was thinking the same thing earlier and I'm glad it didnt go unnoticed he really kicked it out there and freaking took it . it's beautiful. Mr McMahon should have took some pointers

@@michaelsinger4638 so basically Stone Cold pulled a Hulk Hogan
As an older teenager when this was actually on the air and this again brings back good and fun nostalgic memories 💜 💚 thanks man!
Was amazing, when you used to think wrestling was real lolol. I miss being a teen 🥴😂
Watching Benoit vs Guerrero was actually a thing of beauty.
two true artists

This episode is one of the first Nitro shows I recall seeing.

The most electrifying weekly series in TH-cam history, oh its true, its damn true!

Scott Hall referring to the Steiner brothers as the Einsteiners and him goofing on The Giant after doing choke slams were pure gold.

This series is the best thing to come out of the Pandemic
Bret pointing at Shawns weak spot to Anvil is hilarious.
Yet another amazing trip down memory lane, so full of nostalgia. Thanks again! 🤘🏻
The memories of flipping the channels back and forth from USA Network to TNT.
No way, how does Nitro win with no Saturday Wright Fever this week?😂
Stock footage adventures is my guilty pleasure 😂
Awesome!!! Thanks for the perfect breakdowns!!!
I enjoy this series so much that I take viewing breaks every 10-15 minutes from each episode so I can prolong it.
1997 my favourite year in wrestling. This show and channel are great.
Was in a mental hospital and all I could think was "damn I'm Missing RtW". Among ya know, missing outside haha
So sad that Bret in the WWF is almost over.
Pretty much because of this series, friends and I have been revisiting a ton of late 90s ppv's

No Saturday Wright Fever this week. You never know how much you miss something until it’s taken away.

I can proudly say I watch this series religiously
Man I love this series!! Thanks again WB!
Just a few days away from a PPV that started out incredibly then only went downhill from there. Halloween Havoc beckons, as the WWF propels towards maybe the most pivotal moment of the War.
You got me on Sables' massive party pillows😂 can't stop laughing😂😂😂
Welcome back to Thursday Reliving The War, we got lead-ups to two hellacious PPV’s on WWF and WCW, will there be fifty chin-locks? Who knows, watch to find out!

Sounds like he said Bollocks,Mississippi.
That Brian Christopher sell job of the low blow is the best I’ve ever seen. Like a 4 year old that gets told no when he asks for M&Ms at the grocery store. Brilliant.
This version of Steiner was only incredibly scary as opposed to what he would become which was completely f'ing terrifying.
The freeze frame of Nash's face at 31:10 lol

Damn dude!! Scotty Steiner hit Scott Hall with the age old Fist and Twist at the start of their match after the toothpick flick. Steiner is ruthless
15:45 Double Dream Feet Guy! 😆
I know there's plenty to look forward to on raw for reliving the war, but it's sad knowing the Hart foundations run on raw is almost over.
