How long is that 1998 Ted Turner interview? Ninety seconds?

 

I'd love to know what it's from. It almost has a deposition feel to it, but going by the location he seems to be in I doubt it.

 

I'm wondering the same thing.

 

I watched the Monday Night War episode about Vince Russo. I love, love, love that he allowed himself to be interviewed for a show devoted to burying him.

 

And I get a real kick out of them complaining about too many title changes, titles being devalued, and the lack of new stars being pushed in WCW.

Yeah, I'd imagine that everyone who bitches about the Monday Night War show absolutely love this one. They just savage Russo.

I dont think id enjoy the show if all they do is slag WCW off as it always had a special place in my heart and really loved that promotion.

 

As far as not pushing people I remember Jericho getting pushed way too often I yet to recall a show when he wasent wearing a title. If he dropped it they did a story where he would always be given the title back. In a way for me I looked at 1995 WCW as a what if we never got the new generation in WWF. So id tune into Nitro and watch matches like Savage/Luger, Hogan/Luger or Hogan & Bret as a tag team which I always like to think that would have happened had Vince not recruited a bunch of new stars in 1994. Change isnt always a good thing.

Well the last two shows have pretty good because there is really no reason to bullshit the history of WCW failing because truth is almost hard to believe to begin with. Plus WCW stupidity makes WWE looks good from a far. Although they made it out like the show at the very end was a complete mess and if I remember the last couple months of WCW was really really good compared to the last 2 or 3 years.

 

Now the last show talks about Vince buying the company and I assume the invasion angle. Now that I fully expect to be complete bullshit from beginning to end.

 

I was curious but from watching the clip of Bischoff explaining that next week's Nitro was the last that it was used to build up the Scott steiner vs Booker T title match. Unless there was something after the announcement I have no idea how telling us the Nitro is going off the air builds a title match

At the time I did wonder why Booker was getting the belt on the final show and just figured Steiner wasent part of the buying contracts.

Steiner also had an injured foot so they were going to move the title regardless that night.

Network related issue question? I can get the Network on Google Chrome, but I use Firefox most of the time and when I bring the page up it's all white. It's just a blank space. Any reasons for this? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Have the exact same scenario, but no clue what the problem is with Firefox. It's been that way for almost a month now.

I think its something in WWE's code because I am experiencing the same problem and I updated the shit out of my CPU and tried all different adjustments. I can't think of what new feature they added that isn't compatible with FF as of yet. But yes, for now- I am using Chrome as well if I want to watch The Network.

Reposting my solution to the Firefox issue:

 

The same thing happened to me. I cleared all WWE.com cookies, closed and reopened the browser, and logged back in. That fixed the problem.

 

I do have Adblock, but I'm not sure if that makes a difference. I had it when the issue happened.

The First Look piece on the Randy Savage DVD is excellent. What really struck me is how many of Randy's friends they were able to track down since he always struck me as a guy who didn't have a large circle. I guess being in pro wrestling your whole life will make you paranoid. Also his mom looked great for being 86 years old, that family seems to age at 1/4 the normal human rate.

Gotta say I loved the part where Lanny recalled the Savage/Strongbow incident when Jay broke his arm and Randy called him a fat something.
