Headlined by a six man Hell In A Cell match with Kurt Angle defending his WWF title against Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, The Undertaker, and Rikishi, this pay per view is definitely a one match card... or is 'Armageddon' more than that? Simon and Nims look at the World Wrestling Federation's final PPV of 2000.
Simon and Nims take a look at the final 'Starrcade' under the World Championship Wrestling banner, and does the original wrestling supercard go out with a bang - or with a whimper?
Stone Cold Steve Austin is back for revenge against Triple H, 12 months after he was taken out by a speeding car which put him out of action. Plus Kurt Angle's amazing rookie year is capped off with a WWF Championship defence against The Undertaker
The rise of Scott Steiner continues as he remains one of the bright sparks of World Championship Wrestling in 2000, and his rivalry with Booker T continues as they face off in the main event in a strait jacket 'Caged Heat' match
TNA Wrestling has a new home on the AMC Network. That's right the same network that brought us 'Breaking Bad' and 'The Walking Dead' is now the new home of 'Impact' and Ned and Nims checked out their debut episode which featured some new names, and familiar faces making their return.
The rise of Kurt Angle continues with his first World Title shot as he takes on The Rock in a stacked Pay Per View, featuring Triple H versus Chris Benoit and the return of Stone Cold Steve Austin as he faces Rikishi in a No Holds Barred match.
World Championship Wrestling's downhill slide is continuing despite the influx of newer younger talent onto the scene. The veterans like Sting and Booker T are still as good as they were, and we're seeing the rise of Scott Steiner which is still the best thing about WCW 2000. Plus Simon and Nims pay tribute to Hulk Hogan after his passing at the age of 71
In a loaded year for the World Wrestling Federation, this is an overlooked Pay Per View of this era that doesn't get talked about too much. Featuring the return of Stone Cold Steve Austin, a huge Fatal 4 Way for the WWF Title, and the blowoff to the Triple H and Kurt Angle saga - Simon and Nims look back at a lost classic from the start of the millennium!
We've lamented just how bad World Championship Wrestling was in the year 2000 but we need to give credit where credit is due. This Pay Per View breaks the streak of awfulness, headlined by Kevin Nash vs Booker T for the WCW World Title.
It's really no competition anymore between WCW and the World Wrestling Federation as the WWF stacked "SummerSlam" with a host of iconic matches. The Rock vs. Triple H vs. Kurt Angle for the WWF Championship stands the test of time - and we're treated to the first-ever TLC match!
It's been four months since the reboot of World Championship Wrestling and the nosedive continues. After the controversy of last month's Pay Per View that saw the departure of Hulk Hogan and Eric Bischoff from the company, can this brand new event turn the tide?
Another underrated classic from the golden run of 2000 for the World Wrestling Federation. We're seeing a change of the guard with a triple main event with Triple H taking on Chris Jericho, The Undertaker vs Kurt Angle - and the man who started the year as WCW Champion Chris Benoit challenging The Rock for the WWF title.
It's the most controversial WCW Pay Per View in their horror run of the 2000s featuring the final ever appearance of Hulk Hogan in World Championship Wrestling, and Vince Russo's expletive laden shoot promo on The Hulkster live in the middle of the ring. It was huge 24 years ago - but how has it aged since then?
The WWF's hot streak continues as we're into the phase of building new stars in this event. Edge and Christian, The Hardy Boyz, Chris Jericho, and The Dudleys to name a few are some of the fresh faces on a PPV that features The Rock teaming up with Kane and The Undertaker to take on Triple H and the McMahons!
We have constantly mentioned some of the poor decisions World Championship Wrestling have made in the year 2000, but for this edition of 'The Great American Bash' we see somewhat of a new strategy from the company. A mix of old and new sees Hulk Hogan take on Billy Kidman, Sting go up against Vampiro, and Ric Flair in a battle with his son David Flair - but can it end the horrible run of WCW Pay Per Views?
The World Wrestling Federation's hot streak for the new millenium continues as The Rock and Triple H continue their feud over the WWF World Title, which leads us to the second ever Iron Man Match. People had their doubts if HHH and The Rock could go the distance for 60 minutes, but can they silence the doubters?
David Arquette, yes the one from the "Scream" movies, is WCW World Champion and has to defend his title in the brutal triple cage against Jeff Jarrett and Diamond Dallas Page. If that doesn't sum up this Pay Per View nothing will!
When the WWF added 'In Your House' Pay Per Views to it's flagship events they weren't always regarded as important, as the Big Four. With the World Wrestling Federation at its hottest in 2000, these secondary events were just as good as the majors. We look back at Backlash 2000, the high benchmark of PPV "B Shows" in wrestling!
It's a new era of World Championship Wrestling - again. Eric Bischoff is back in charge (again) and this time he's teaming up with Vince Russo who's returned to WCW... again. We're doing a hard reset on the company in order to try and turn their fortunes around, and it's a clean slate with the New Blood taking on the veterans in the Millionaires Club!
It's the biggest WrestleMania ever, and it's headlined by a massive Fatal Four Way Main Event featuring a McMahon in every corner! Triple H defends his World Title with Stephanie in his corner, against The Big Show accompanied by Shane, Mick Foley who's got Linda McMahon supporting him, and The Rock who's got the backing of Vince! Simon and Nims are joined by Connor Rogers, voice of "The 10" on AFL.com.au, to recap the WWF's showcase event.
This is the straw that broke the camels back. Despite the efforts of Booker T, Sid Vicious, and Jeff Jarrett doing their best to make the most of a bad situation this Pay Per View is the one that finally made WCW do a complete reboot afterwards - and famously had Hulk Hogan take on Ric Flair in a Yappapi Indian Strap Match... oh boy!
The new millennium has started off with a bang for the World Wrestling Federation, but the rivalry between Triple H and Cactus Jack has escalated since their street fight in Madison Square Garden last month. Hell in a Cell returns to the WWF as it's a Title vs Career match in a brutal main event!
We'd be repeating ourselves if we say that World Championship Wrestling has lost a lot of momentum since it's glory days, but WCW are turning to what worked in the past to get back on track. We've got a triple main event with Hulk Hogan vs Lex Luger, Ric Flair vs Terry Funk, and a Triple Threat for the World Title as Sid Vicious puts his championship on the line against Scott Hall and Jeff Jarrett!
Pay Per Views for the WWF dipped in quality over 1999 and really were quite a mixed bag, however they kicked off the new millennium with a bang with the 'Royal Rumble' to start the year. We look back at a very memorable PPV as the World Wrestling Federation's popularity began to soar to even bigger heights - even without Stone Cold Steve Austin!
It's a new millenium in World Championship Wrestling and we're a bit in limbo as the ship doesn't seem to have a captain steering it. Either way we're treated to a few first time match ups like Harlem Heat facing each other one on one, and Chris Benoit and Sid Vicious in the main event for the vacant WCW World Title.
The Road To WrestleMania came Down Under, when the "Elimination Chamber" went to Western Australia. Hosts of Grey Wolf's popular 'Reliving The War' podcast Simon and Nims headed over to Perth to catch up with some of the WWE Superstars ahead of the Pay Per View.
The World Wrestling Federation has been on an all time high when it comes to the year 1999, and in their final Pay Per View of the millennium the fate of the company rest in the hands of a street fight between Vince McMahon and Triple H!
It's the final WCW Pay Per View of the millennium and we have got a huge main event when former tag team champions Goldberg and Bret Hart battle for the Hitman's World Title. Can this box office match-up get World Championship Wrestling back on course heading into the year 2000 - or is it too late to stop the juggernaut of the WWF and the Attitude era?
With an advertised main event of Triple H defending the WWF Championship against The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, plus the first Pay Per View match of Kurt Angle you'd think this would be a milestone edition of the Survivor Series. However with Steve Austin hit by a car by a mystery assailant, the main event is turned on its head! Simon and Nims look back at yet another controversial edition of the Survivor Series!
While this might not be one of the flagship events on the calendar, the World Wrestling Federation went all out for this Pay Per View. In addition to a main event for the World Title between Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin in a no holds barred match, we also have Jeff Jarrett's final appearance in the WWF until his return almost two decades later - and two little known teams called Edge and Christian vs The Hardy Boys in the first ever Tag Team Ladder Match!
It's a new beginning for World Championship Wrestling, with the 'Powers That Be' taking charge of the company and we see changes immediately. Jeff Jarrett has made the jump from the WWF, and Sting has turned his back on the fans in order to get the title. But does this change in direction work? Simon and Nims look back at the first PPV of the Vince Russo era.
Every WWF Championship is on the line, with a killer main event that sees The Rock, Triple H, Mankind, The Big Show, Kane and the British Bulldog battle for the vacant World Championship with Stone Cold Steve Austin as the special enforcer. But this is also the infamous PPV with one of the worst matches in history: The Kennel From Hell Match!
World Championship Wrestling breaks tradition and skips War Games in this edition of 'Fall Brawl' but what does it deliver in it's place? A rematch of Goldberg vs DDP, The Insane Clown Posse and Vampiro vs Rey Mysterio, Eddie Gurrero, and Billy Kidman - plus a huge main event with Hulk Hogan and Sting for the WCW World Title!
The state of Minnesota hosts the World Wrestling Federation's second biggest Pay Per View of the year with a Triple Threat for the WWF Championship in the main event.

The war between Vince McMahon and Stone Cold Steve Austin has been dominating the World Wrestling Federation however this Pay Per View signifies the end of an era in a brutal First Blood match between Austin and The Undertaker - and also on the card two young upstarts named Triple H and The Rock face each other in a vicious strap match!
In years gone by the 'Bash at the Beach' saw some groundbreaking events happen for World Championship Wrestling. In 1994 it was the dream match of Hulk Hogan vs Ric Flair for the Heavyweight Title, in 1995 we saw a crossover with the stars of the hit TV series Baywatch in a co-branded event, and famously in 1996 we saw the formation of the nWo. Can this edition of the Pay Per View live up to the hype?
After Vince McMahon put his own daughter Stephanie at risk in an unholy alliance with the Undertaker just to get at Stone Cold Steve Austin, his wife Linda retaliated by making Austin CEO of the World Wrestling Federation. Now the fate of the WWF is at stake with control of the company on the line as Vince and his son Shane, take on Austin in a ladder match!
We're deep into the dark days of World Championship Wrestling and the company is getting desperate. Despite a main event of Kevin Nash vs Macho Man Randy Savage - we're also getting garbage hardcore matches, B level players like Horace Hogan, and the Pay Per View debut of Master P and the No Limit Soldiers!
The WWF return to Europe with another Pay Per View exclusive to the United Kingdom. Shane McMahon and the Corporate Ministry are running riot and making life hell for their enemies, and the odds are stacked against Stone Cold Steve Austin as he defends his World Title against Triple H and The Undertaker!
After a great showing at last month's PPV, World Championship Wrestling is riding on a wave of goodwill for this year's edition of 'Slamboree' - but will that optimism be paid off... or will WCW once again leave their fans scratching their heads?
It's been no secret that the PPV quality of World Championship Wrestling has been lackluster over the past few months - which is why you need to go out of your way to check out this show. When WCW is good it's great and 'Spring Stampede 99' is one of the last great Pay Per Views from the company.
The WWF is white hot at the moment with two incredibly successful events to start of 1999 and now we've got the absolute peak of the Austin vs McMahon storyline - The Rock vs Stone Cold in the main event of WrestleMania XV! Does this show live up to the hype? Simon and Nims find out to see if the high school memories of this PPV stand true!
World Championship Wrestling certainly isn't in its heyday still and boy does it show. While there are some stand out performances from Booker T and Scott Steiner, and a tag match that sees Curt Hennig pull out one of his best showings since coming to WCW - the main event of Ric Flair vs Hulk Hogan in 1999 in a barbed wire steel cage first blood match should sum up just how good this Pay Per View is!
Vince McMahon has won the 1999 Royal Rumble and it looks like that Stone Cold Steve Austin's dreams of making it to WrestleMania has been shattered. But there is one last roll of the dice for the Rattlesnake, as he takes on the owner of the World Wrestling Federation in a steel cage - with a main event at Mania at stake!

Vince McMahon and the Corporation's war on Steve Austin continues, with the deck stacked against Stone Cold in the Rumble and Mr. McMahon offering a $100,000 bounty for anyone who eliminates Austin in the match.

Ned and Nims take a look at the PPV that sets the tone for 2023 in Impact Wrestling.
After dominating the WWF in the ratings for 83 straight weeks, World Championship Wrestling starts off 1999 on the back foot for the first time in two years. After a controversial December pay per view that saw the streak come to an end for Goldberg, WCW looks to gain ground on the WWF with a ladder match in the main event!
The World Wrestling Federation made some great moves to claw back some momentum from WCW, and their Pay Per View efforts were absolutely stellar in 1998. However, despite being named in tribute to the current WWF Champion The Rock, this PPV ended the year with a fizzer in the aptly titled "Rock Bottom" - join us as we delve through an atrocious December for wrestling PPV.
It's the biggest show of the year for World Championship Wrestling and in the past few years we've seen some epic clashes like Hollywood Hogan take on Roddy Piper in '96 as well as the culmination of Sting's battle with the nWo in 1997. But for the final event of 1998, Starrcade features the main event of the undefeated WCW World Champion Goldberg against Kevin Nash - what could go wrong?
The World Wrestling Federation returns to the United Kingdom one more time as The Rock defends his newly won WWF World Championship against X-Pac, plus Stone Cold Steve Austin has the deck stacked against him as he has to face The Undertaker, Kane, and Mankind in the main event. Austin has a trick up his sleeve though with star of "Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrells" Vinnie Jones as his backup!
It's the biggest match type in World Championship Wrestling - World War 3! Three rings, 60 wrestlers, and one title opportunity at the WCW World Heavyweight Championship. In addition to the World War 3 match, we also have Bret Hart's first WCW main event - one year after he left the WWF in controversial circumstances - as he takes on Diamond Dallas Page for the United States Championship.
It's the event that brings a lot of nostalgia for Aussie wrestling fans as this was the Pay Per View that was shown on Free To Air TV on Channel 10 back in the day, and had everyone talking about it at school on Monday morning. It's the Deadly Game tournament that has to crown a new WWF World Champion, and with huge names like Stone Cold, The Undertaker, Mankind, The Rock, Ken Shamrock and more in this tournament - this lived up to the hype!
It's one of World Championship Wrestling's flagship events and this year is no exception. Goldberg defends his World Title against DDP, Hollywood Hogan faces The Warrior in an Ultimate rematch eight years in the making, and we see Bret Hart vs Sting in a stacked card - so how did it all go wrong? Join Simon and Nims as we look back at a PPV that started so well, and took a nosedive quickly!
It's another loaded PPV with the WWF Championship vacant and it's The Undertaker vs Kane in the main event to decide who gets the title - but there's a catch, with Stone Cold Steve Austin as the referee! Once again World Wrestling Federation owner Vince McMahon has stacked the decks against the Rattlesnake, because if Austin isn't a fair and unbiased referee he is fired from the company.
When it comes to marquee pay per view events for World Championship Wrestling, "Fall Brawl" is normally one you can always guarantee is going to be good.

Brace yourself for one of the worst pay per view events in World Championship Wrestling history. After a celebrity themed event last month at 'Bash at the Beach' proved a mainstream success, WCW tries one more time to piggyback off the popularity of celebrities when Hollywood Hogan and Eric Bischoff go head to head with Diamond Dallas Page and JAY LENO in the main event. You've been warned!
The Highway to Hell leads straight to Madison Square Garden as Stone Cold Steve Austin defends his World Championship against The Undertaker - but if that wasn't enough we see Mankind defend the tag team titles on his own against the New Age Outlaws, as Triple H and The Rock battle for the Intercontinental Championship in a ladder match!
WCW's 'Bash at the Beach' pay per view has always been a groundbreaking one. In 1998 the Chicago Bulls picked up a 4-2 Championship victory over the Utah Jazz in the NBA Finals. Well the action spills off the court because less than a month later we see Hollywood Hulk Hogan team up with Dennis Rodman against Diamond Dallas Page and Karl Malone in an all star tag team encounter!
We are well into the Attitude Era and it's in full force in this months event which sees Val Venis make his pay per view debut, and two young up and comers named The Rock and Triple H have an absolute classic.

The Attitude Era is all guns blazing and while this Pay Per View is loaded with great matches like The Rock vs Ken Shamrock in the King Of The Ring final, or Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Kane in a first blood match this event is well known for one reason - Undertaker vs Mankind: Hell in a Cell!
The World Wrestling Federation is on a roll, and World Championship Wrestling is clearly losing steam to the juggernaut of Stone Cold Steve Austin as WWF Champion. But WCW fight back with a hell of a Pay Per View highlighted by a Chris Jericho cruiserweight classic, an Eddie Gurrero masterclass against Ultimo Dragon, and the first appearance of the nWo Wolfpac!
Since winning the WWF Championship from Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 14, Stone Cold Steve Austin has had every obstacle thrown his way by World Wresting Federation owner Vince McMahon. With the decks stacked against him, Stone Cold once again defends his title against Dude Love in a chaotic main event!
The nWo is in shambles and we're seeing a transitional phase for World Championship Wrestling. Booker T is getting more time in the spotlight with a stellar defence of his TV Title, and can Hollywood Hogan and Kevin Nash co-exist as they take on the Giant and Roddy Piper? Plus in an all star main event match, Sting defends his WCW World Championship against Macho Man Randy Savage!
It's the dawn of a new era in the World Wrestling Federation with the first Pay Per View since Steve Austin won the World Championship in March and defends his title against Mick Foley in the main event.

The World Wrestling Federation have started the year off with flying colours, and now it's WCW chance to return serve.

With another Randy Savage vs Diamond Dallas Page main event as well as The Outsiders vs Roddy Piper and Ric Flair, the 'Bash' isn't short of star power.
From the second you saw the six sided ring in TNA, you knew that this wasn't like anything else you'd ever see in wrestling at the time. But two extra sides to the traditional squared circle wasn't the only thing unique to TNA in American wrestling, with match types unique to the promotion seen to this very day. Ultimate X, King Of The Mountain, Lethal Lockdown and Monster's Ball matches are some of the styles that were exclusive to the company and in this episode we look at the match types that made us cross the line.
It's a milestone edition of Grey Wolf Wrestling's Reliving The War as we celebrate one full year of looking back at the Monday Night Wars. In this episode we look at King Of The Ring 1997, and we're joined by producer of the Saving Apollo 13 podcast (@savingapollo_13) Jack Traynor to look back at the first ever Pay Per View match between Shawn Michaels and Steve Austin, and Farooq takes on WWF Champion The Undertaker in the main event.

Plus a bunch more!
In the almost two decades of TNA/Impact Wrestling's existence there has been a long list of talent that has stepped inside the ring, from the six sided ring to the squared circle. In episode two, Ned and Nims try to narrow down a few of our favourite wrestlers from TNA's past, and Impact's present day... lets see if their memories can kickstart and remember some!
We've been seeing the rise of Stone Cold Steve Austin, and the slow burn into his superstardom continues when he gets a shot at the WWF World Championship against the Undertaker. We're also joined by a special guest - Nick Brown (twitter.com/backbonepod), writer from Australian heavy metal website BACKBONETAKEOVER.com.au who's experiencing the start of the Attitude Era for the first time!
Ned and Nims had a chat with the legendary Tony Schiavone (who you can still hear doing play by play every week on AEW on TNT) and Dirk Manning about the upcoming biographical graphic novel covering Tony's career: BUTTS IN SEATS!
For almost two decades the wrestling company that Jeff Jarrett created has always been seen as a distant second to the WWE, but despite its detractors to say that TNA hasn't made a positive and lasting impression on pro-wrestling would be a flat out lie. From giving guys like AJ Styles and Samoa Joe their first national platform, to pioneering women's wrestling long before the "women's revolution" - Total Nonstop Action Wrestling doesn't deserve some of the criticism and in this debut edition of the podcast, Ned and Nims (two TNA die hards) delve into how they first heard of this upstart promotion, and just why they love it so much.
Aussie wrestling fans might have seen Indi Hartwell in the ring for Melbourne City Wrestling, Adelaide's Riot City Wrestling, and other places around Australia. Well now the girl from down under that grew up a wrestling fan is now a champion in the WWE and we spoke to her about her journey, and what she misses from back home in Melbourne.
The World Wrestling Federation has been putting a lot of stock on their rising star Stone Cold Steve Austin. Meanwhile in World Championship Wrestling they've decided to do the same thing. With the nWo saga continuing, WCW turn to Diamond Dallas Page with his first main event at a PPV going one on one with Macho Man Randy Savage - but does the gamble and fresh main event pay off for WCW?
Grey Wolf Pack Chat is back for a fresh episode!! The boys are fresh off Fitzy's wedding, and back into lockdown with plenty on the agenda:
Plus a whole heap more!
With a disappointing WrestleMania in the history books, it was time for the WWF to try and make it up to the fans. With a double main event of Undertaker defending the World Championship against Mankind, and Bret Hart taking on Stone Cold Steve Austin - the deck is stacked for the World Wrestling Federation to try claw back fans from WCW and get the wars back in their favour!
Jeff Jarrett is one of wrestling's most decorated superstars. During the Monday Night Wars he jumped from WWF to WCW and had a great run with Ric Flair and the Horsemen, then jumped back to WWF where he became an Intercontinental Champion and Tag Team Champion with Owen Hart. He then jumped again to WCW where he became World Champion and reformed the nWo. And we haven't even got to him starting TNA Wrestling yet!! He's had a hell of a career and he was also Nims favourite wrestler when he was growing up so enjoy our chat with "Double J" Jeff Jarrett!
With the WWF delivering a sub par 'WrestleMania' it was WCW's turn to gain some ground in the Monday Night Wars... and they did with a mammoth show featuring a main event with Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, Randy Savage, Lex Luger, The Giant and so much more. This was a show so big, we had to get our mates Kris Gale (@krisgale11) and Andrew Rose (@AndrewRoseKnows) whom you might have heard on Triple M's "Off The Top Rope" to join us for one of the biggest shows of 1997!!
After a strong start to 1997 it looks like the WWF are slowly fighting back against the runaway success of WCW. After the success of the ROYAL RUMBLE, and FINAL FOUR momentum is going the WWF's way - but the ball is dropped majorly with a sub par WRESTLEMANIA. Aside from a legendary match between Stone Cold Steve Austin and Bret Hart, we look at one of the worst Mania's in modern history!
We are back for another edition of Grey Wolf Hoops. This week we discuss the NBA All Star Game, Zombies basketball and we preview the remainder of the NBL Cup.
The war is well and truly underway, and WCW tried something different to kick off 1997. That didn't go as they hoped so they have a lot to make up for with the next Pay Per View. "SuperBrawl VII" has a mega Hogan vs Piper rematch plus The Giant goes for the tag team titles on his own against the Outsiders!
We're on the road to WrestleMania and no-one thought it would be the Miz holding the WWE Championship heading in to the biggest show of the year. But he couldn't have got the gold if it wasn't for Bobby Lashley, and now the man they call the destroyer wants a shot at the title. We spoke to both the Miz and Lashley before their massive title match!
The WWF is on the back foot, with WCW making ground in the ratings war. With a strong start to the year at the 'Royal Rumble' for the World Wrestling Federation, they look to build momentum at 'Final Four' with a fatal four way in the main event featuring The Undertaker, Vader, Bret Hart, and Stone Cold Steve Austin!
We're back in the studio after lockdown for a bumper edition of Grey Wolf Hoops! There is a bunch to discuss with the NBL Cup about to kick off, the South East Melbourne Phoenix's big signing, and Fitzy's interesting Twitter beef!

With the WWF on it's knees and barely able to fill the 30 spots in the Royal Rumble, WCW are flying high at the start of 1997 and the New World Order is the hottest act in town. So what better way than to start off the new year, with the first Pay Per View being all nWo. Join Simon and Nims as they look at the most daring event of the Monday Night Wars when WCW ditched the WCW, and went all in on the nWo!!
We discuss what has already been an interesting round in the NBL, with some huge matchups still to come. Fitzy's call on The Hawks is alive and well, with Ned's United boys remaining undefeted! We also cover some local basketball with big news out of the 'Zombies' camp that a veteran will be coming out of retirement.
We take a look back at Round 1 of the NBL and preview the current Round. Plus we chat local basketball and Fitz is feeling very confident with his early BOLD calls and the rise of Hawks Basketball!!! Jump on board and spread the word!!!
Being the daughter of a wrestling legend is hard enough, but for Charlotte Flair she's well on her way to living up to the expectations of being Ric Flair's daughter and exceeding them. After a six month hiatus from the ring, she returned last December and claimed tag team gold and we caught up with the Women's Grand Slam Champion before this year's Royal Rumble!
With both WCW and WWF finishing 1996 on a high note, the World Wrestling Federation is still on the back foot. With the rise of the nWo taking WCW to new heights the WWF has to regroup and start off the new year with a bang with their legendary Royal Rumble.
In this special edition of 'Reliving The War' we are joined by professional wrestling photographer Owen Jones (@digital_beard), and Sony Digital Imaging Advocate and renowned videographer Neal Walters for a watch along of the unique 1997 Royal Rumble!
WCW finished 1996 with a bang with a huge Starrcade that gave them strong momentum heading into the new year. For the first time in a long time, the WWF is losing their hold on the wrestling majority and they need to finish the year on a high. With Sycho Sid defending his WWF Championship against Bret Hart in the main event - can the WWF bounce back or is WCW on a roll to dominate?
We are back for another episode of Grey Wolf Pack Chat! Join Ned, Fitz, Nims and Herbz as we discuss everything and anything! From the NBL season launch to the 2020 lockdown, movies to music, and all the latest happenings around Grey Wolf. We also go in-depth into the #FreedomForJay movement, a big project for 2021!
With 1996 coming to a close, WCW is coming off a Pay Per View that was slammed by the fans and critics and against a red-hot 'Survivor Series' the month of November was a free kick for the struggling WWF. However with their last show of the year, WCW pulled out all the stops with a solid card top to bottom headlined by Hulk Hogan vs Roddy Piper - @DMDownUnder's @digital_beard (who was one year old when Starrcade came out!) joins us to experience WCW's flagship PPV for the first time"
The countdown to the Royal Rumble continues, and before the first edition of Monday Night RAW for 2021 - we caught up with the legendary HULK HOGAN to talk about the Rumble, his match with The Rock at Wrestlemania 18, and who he thinks is a superstar of the future!

A new year always kicks off with the ROYAL RUMBLE, and ahead of the 2021 edition we caught up with a man who knows exactly what it's like to win the match - Nature Boy Ric Flair chats to us about Legends night on RAW, and what it takes to win a Rumble.
After a disappointing WCW Pay Per View offering, the WWF had a chance to try and regain some lost ground and halt the momentum of the nWo and their response was SURVIVOR SERIES 1996. Featuring matches like Undertaker vs Mankind, Stone Cold Steve Austin vs Bret Hart, the debut of The Rock, and Shawn Michaels vs Sycho Sid, the WWF loaded the card to combat the threat of WCW!
WCW has to turn away fans from arenas because the popularity of the nWo has made all their shows must see and tickets are selling out as soon as they go on sale. And with bigger crowds come bigger events, and nothing is bigger than World War 3 - a massive 60 man battle royal in three rings with the World Heavyweight Championship at stake. Simon and Nims are once again joined by MCW's Owen Jones (@digital__beard) to look back at the biggest WCW Pay Per View in 1996!
The Monday Night Wars are still neck and neck with WCW and WWF trading momentum and after the Macho Man Randy Savage vs Hulk Hogan clash at Halloween Havoc, the WWF had to respond - and they did by upping the stakes.
