Match # 24: The Steiner Brothers vs. Road Warriors vs. Nasty Boys (Nitro 4/1/96) The Steiners and Road Warriors gave us a great match a month or two before. So what does brilliant WCW do? They muck it up with a Three Way by adding the Nasty Boys. And Eric Bischoff claims ECW didn’t influence [...]

Match # 23: Ric Flair vs. The Giant (Nitro 3/25/96) Elizabeth throws Savage’s money to the crowd as they come down the aisle. She’s won a lot in the settlement apparently. You would too if the stories about her treatment are true.

Match # 22: Randy Savage vs. Fit Finlay (Nitro 3/25/96) Savage deserves a lot of credit for his early Nitro run. Not only did he rule in main event matches with people like Flair, but he had forgotten great matches like this one. He had done the same thing with Benoit in a match that [...]

Match # 21: The Road Warriors vs. The Steiner Brothers (Nitro 3/11/96) This was the Road Warriors big return to the states, and I think the first big match for the Steiners on Nitro. I have some vague memories of watching this one live at my home as a high schooler. Let’s see if we [...]

Match # 20: Ric Flair vs. Randy Savage (Nitro 2/19/96) Flair is out with Liz & Woman. I feel like I’ve seen this match one too many times in the short history of Nitro. It never quite gets near the level of their Wrestlemania 8 match, but I love the dynamic of the two together. [...]

Match # 19: Arn Anderson vs. Hulk Hogan (Nitro 2/12/96) The second banana in the Four Horseman gets a shot at the superstar. We’ll see if Arn picks a body part and goes to work. You know he’ll sell his ass off for anyone. Let’s see just how selfish Hulk Hogan is feeling tonight (or [...]

Match # 18: Randy Savage vs. Chris Benoit (Nitro 2/5/96) Oh wow. This is one of those hidden geek out moments for me because I had no idea this match existed. Early Nitro, and maybe the entire run, was so great for having newsletter/Internet dream matches for free on your TV. Especially once WCW had [...]
