Saying classics I think about World Championship Wrestling, promotion which disabled just 10 years ago and had been added to World Wrestling Entertainment. Few weeks ago, I began my private retrospection with WCW from moment when Hollywood Hogan regained WCW Championship from hands of The Giant. It was on Hog Wild 1996.
Later, I've watched Nitro episodes from August and soon I will finish watching archives from 1996 and begin with next year. Plus pay-per-views of course.
Fall Brawl, Halloween Havoc, World War 3 and probably on next days Starrcade when match of the decade took place:
Hollywood Hogan vs Roddy Piper.
So, let's go back to the subject question:
How to have good view for classics?
For example: World Championship Wrestling.
Firstly, know that "this is WCW where the big boys play".
Secondly, Nitro, Thunder, Saturday Night and pay-per-views have been prefered in watching than World Wrestling Federation programming.
Thirdly, while Raw was live in 90s every two weeks, Nitro was weekly on air and began few minutes earlier. Good trick!
Creative Team of WCW deserved for extra price due to idea with formation of nWo, mysterious persona of Sting, undefeated Goldberg's streak (173-0!), Wolfpack incarnation etc.
When I watched first episodes of Nitro, then I thought that this is better than Raw.
Why?
More time spending on fights than for silly backstage clips, serious performance, show full of classics, athmosphere of the show brilliant...
You can find on the web some Nitro episodes, follow Youtube too.
Next post coming soon when I'll be able to write something and something will be able to be written.
