Disk 13 Rankings
1. Bret Hart vs. Chris Benoit (Nitro 10/4/99)
2. Raven/Perry Saturn vs. Chris Benoit/Dean Malenko (Nitro 5/17/99)
3. Sting vs. Chris Benoit (Nitro 9/20/99)
4. Ric Flair vs. Hulk Hogan (Nitro 2/14/00)
5. Hollywood Hogan/Sting/Goldberg vs. Kevin Nash/Sid/Scott Steiner (Nitro 8/9/99)
6. La Parka/Silver King vs. Damian/Ciclope (Mexican Hardcore Match) (Nitro 6/7/99)
7. Hollywood Hogan vs. Randy Savage (Nitro 7/12/99)
This was a Hogan-heavy disk, and not so surprisingly the most underwhelming. Not only am I showing a bit of bias against Hogan and his matches, but Nitro had really peaked by this point and was sliding down hill quickly. Other than the Hart vs Benoit match, nothing really rocked me, and even that match has a hollow feel at times to it. Benoit ended up in the top three matches, with everything Hogan finishing fourth or worse. I put the Hogan/Flair single over the six man because I thought it had more of a story, where as the six man was just getting started when it finished, and even with a clean finish (I think, I’ve already forgotten, it was only 1/3 of the way into the story. The final two matches on this ranking were really hard to sit through. Other than the top match, nothing here is top thirty stuff.
