I got through the entire #AttitudeEra and #MondayNightWars without watching a single #prowrestling PPV. I'll be just fine without the #ESPN app and #WWE PLEs. Plenty of alternatives.

28 years ago tonight on Monday Nitro, Randy Savage faced La Parka… but this wasn’t your typical nWo squash!

A shocking ending that fans still talk about — just like that… BANG, the match was over!

I finally found it! #wwe #mattel #wweultimateedition #stonecoldsteveaustin #mondaynightwars #walmartexclusive

How was the torture rack a viable submission hold? Also, why did WCW refs call for the bell by signaling toward the hard camera and not the timekeeper?

I know they were both a part of The Kliq, but it feels wild to me that I'm basically watching X-Pac vs Scott Hall as an opening match on this early October 1995 WWF Raw.

29 years ago today, what many consider the initial kickoff of the Monday Night Wars!!!
#wrestling #mondaynightwars #wwe #wcw #wwf

September 1995 was an interesting month in pro wrestling! The first two Nitros were great, then Raw picked up a bit while Nitro followed with two weaker shows. There are signs that things are only going to get better from here!

#WrestleSky #WCW #WWF #MondayNightWars

So the first and second Nitros were good. WWF was pre-empted by the US Open for the first Nitro and now on their opening they've got a new theme....

I kind of prefer the first Raw theme to this, but I know there are better themes coming over the years..!
