83 Weeks #10-Goldberg Beating Hogan on Nitro – 20 Year Anniversary


WCW had it’s best week ever, this week 20 years ago! Join Eric and Conrad as they examine the first part of that phenomenal week when Goldberg defeated Hogan for the World Title in front of the largest cable audience to ever see wrestling and a record house at the Georgia Dome! But should it have been on Pay Per View? Why was it on free TV? Would Vince McMahon have given it away for free? Was Eric’s job in jeopardy? Whose idea was it to have Hogan drop the title? Why was it only announced four days ahead of time? Would it have happened had the WWF not been winning the ratings war? Who no-showed the event? Don’t miss this two hour dissection of one of the most important shows in WCW history, Monday Nitro from July 6, 1998!

  1. Wrestling podcasts are the ONLY podcasts I bother to listen to. THIS podcast has been distracting me from all my other podcasts. Keep it up, gentlemen.

  2. Cool show. I enjoyed the breakdown of the full Nitro. And yep…back in the day, we'd party hard for Nitro. Good times.

  3. That episode of Nitro was the first time I watched pro wrestling. The only reason I watched that night was because of Karl Malone and Dennis Rodman being advertised for it.
