It's WCW Nitro from October 21, 1996! We're on the road to Halloween Havoc 1996, and the New World Order are on a tear, taking out anyone and everyone in their path. WCW are still putting up a fight, but they need someone to step up to the plate and lead them to victory! There's only one man that can get the job done, and he makes his return to WCW after a month long absence; it's STING! Sting is back, and for the first time, he makes an appearance with the beginning stages of the "Crow Sting" look. But, whose side is he on...? Plus, "Macho Man" Randy Savage is having his heart strings pulled at, as Miss Elizabeth makes a plea for him to forgive her, despite her being with the NWO. Eric Bischoff showed him a video last week of her apologizing, and has the great idea of showing him another video this week! Also, Hollywood Hulk Hogan is here...live from a movie set! He's here to talk about the movie he's working on; 3 NINJAS! Everyone knows that movie!

The biggest WrestleMania of all time (there have only been two so far) is upon is, and with no matches announced, and a venue that is only just getting announced on this show, the WWF is going to have to pull out all the stops to have record-breaking attendance numbers for this one. Thankfully for them, life as a pro wrestling fan is a lot different in 1987, and a match like Hulk Hogan vs Andre The Giant is enough to sell NINETY-THOUSAND TICKETS (or maybe not, dude). The date is February 7, 1987 for this episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling. Roddy Piper (along with Jesse Ventura) invite Hulk Hogan & Andre The Giant on to Piper's Pit to talk about their issues, but Bobby Heenan surprises everyone by showing up as well! Also on this show, the WWF Tag Team Titles are on the line as The Hart Foundation (Bret Hart & Jim Neidhart w/ Jimmy Hart) go for the gold against the British Bulldogs (Davey Boy Smith & Dynamite Kid). Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, the referee for this contest is that evil referee, Danny Davis! Outback Jack makes his WWF debut because his friend Hillbilly Jim brought him in, and "Macho Man" Randy Savage is here to beat up some local talent that the crowd hates.

It’s November 25th, 2010 on Thanksgiving for this special episode of TNA Wrestling iMPACT! There is no Turkey Bowl, but we do get a Thanksgiving Party with Immortal.

WWF Survivor Series 1997 is known for one thing: The Montreal Screwjob. This was the case where Bret Hart was leaving the WWF to join the WCW. At the time, Bret was the WWF Champion, but he didn’t want to lose the WWF Championship in Canada. Especially to Shawn Michaels. During the match, Michaels put Bret Hart in the Sharpshooter. Vince McMahon, who was ringside, ordered referee Earl Hebner to ring the bell even though Bret hadn’t submitted. Shawn Michaels was declared the new WWF Champion. That was The Montreal Screwjob. Now on November 17th, 1997 on WWF Monday Night RAW, the fallout from the infamous incident begins. Vince McMahon sits down in a one on one interview with Jim Ross. During this candid conversation McMahon explains that Bret Hart refused to lose the WWF Championship before leaving the company to join their rival competition, WCW. He said that Bret put himself above the company and that he had no choice but to protect the company. Vince says, “Bret screwed Bret. I have no sympathy whatsoever for Bret.” Also, as the show opens, the Intercontinental Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin calls out The Rock. The Nation of Domination come to the ring and start attacking Stone Cold! The numbers game got to him allowing The Rock to steal the IC Championship Title Belt. In the main event The Rock battles Dude Love in a non title match, but it ends when The Nation of Domaination get involved. Stone Cold makes the save, but The Rock is able to escape with the IC Title. Plus, DX attack Sargent Slaughter leading to a match at the next PPV, Kane destroys The Headbangers, and Vader takes on “The Artist Formerly Known As” Goldust.⦁ Deadlock Discord: https://discord.gg/E4BvR4W⦁ Deadlock Shop: https://shop.deadlockpw.com⦁ Deadlock Patreon: https://patreon.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Twitter: https://twitter.com/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Instagram: https://instagram.com/deadlockwrestling⦁ Deadlock Reddit: https://reddit.com/r/deadlockpw⦁ Deadlock Pro Wrestling: http://deadlockpro.com

September 26th, 2005 is the final WWE Monday Night RAW on Spike TV. Spike had a few rules on this episode, do not talk bad about Spike TV and don’t mention USA Network. Next week WWE is doing a huge 3 hour episode of WWE RAW Homecoming on USA. Mr. McMahon comes out to open the show and thanks Spike TV for being good partners and promotes the next episode on USA! Spike TV producers didn’t like WWE mentioning USA on air so much that they started to censor the show. They mute commentary and throw up technical difficulty bumpers on the live broadcast. This only made WWE more upset and they start promoting the return to USA even more.
