WWF Shotgun Saturday Night (February 1, 1997)

After a brief detour to watch a different WWF C-show from late January 1997 we’re back on the Shotgun Saturday Night train. Last week’s episode had a one off match between two all time greats that should have been better than it was, the last Jake Roberts match in the WWF, a Savio Vega heel turn, and a whole lot of Nation of Domination. Let’s see what we have going on this week!

WWF Shotgun Saturday Night (January 18, 1997)

For as much as I complained about the episode of Shotgun Saturday Night I reviewed recently the show was a pretty easy one to just sit down and watch and so I’ve decided to continue watching Shotgun Saturday Night at least up until the format change that I know is coming happens and the show goes from being a weird ECW homage and just become proto-Velocity or Jakked.

TNA The Best Damn Wrestling Event Period – Night 2 (November 11, 2004)

I’m going to go ahead and watch Night 2 of TNA’s Best Damn Wrestling Event Period. The first one wasn’t all that great and I have zero expectations that this one is going to be any better, especially since this one guarantees us at least two matches featuring the hosts of the Best Damn Sports Show Period in action. That being said, the thing I most like watching and reviewing on this site are the weird one-offs and there’s nothing weirder than a one-off crossover with a late night sports talk show. So let’s get to it.

TNA The Best Damn Wrestling Event Period – Night 1 (November 10, 2004)

So way back in 2004, TNA called Fox Sports Net home. As a bit of cross-promotion the powers that be allowed TNA to air two nights of special wrestling based installments of another Fox Sports Net program, The Best Damn Sports Show Period. I’ve never seen an episode of that particular program but Wikipedia tells me that it “regularly featured irreverent and opinionated interviews with top athletes, coaches, celebrities, and entertainers,” and based on the stuff on this episode that seems to be a fair description of the show. Anyway this had actual matches on it and it was only an hour long so I figured I give it a watch as it’s something I’ve never actually seen before.

NWA:TNA Weekly PPV #53 (July 16, 2003)

I continue to haphazardly make my way through IMPACT Wrestling’s 20 year history with another one of their weekly PPVs, specifically the July 16, 2003 show from the Asylum in Nashville, Tennessee. Don’t know anything about it save for the fact that it’s about a month after the one year anniversary show I watched a few weeks back.

TNA Destination X 2005 (March 13, 2005)

So I continue my foray into being a guy who only watches IMPACT Wrestling today with a look at Destination X 2005 coming to us live from the IMPACT Zone in Orlando, Florida. I think I’m going to go through the random IMPACT shows that are available in full on IMPACT’s YouTube channel along with the random stuff of questionable legality I have on an external hard drive in chronological order and this one seems to be the oldest one that I’ve not reviewed already so it seems as good a place as any to start so let’s get to it.

NWA:TNA Weekly PPV #22 (November 27, 2002)

I think I’m going to go all in on TNA/IMPACT Wrestling being the only wrestling promotion I watch for the foreseeable future. I don’t have any grand designs about watching every episode in chronological order or anything like that. I’m just going to watch whatever shows I have available to me on YouTube or that external hard drive of wrestling shows of questionable legality I got. So let’s get down to it.

NWA:TNA Weekly PPV #49 (June 18, 2003)

I’m thinking about maybe becoming an Impact Wrestling guy this year so I went and watched one of the full length shows they have up on their YouTube channel, specifically the First Anniversary Show from June 18, 2003. Here are some words about it.

WWF Raw Is War (December 28, 1998)

Since I already reviewed the December 21, 1998 episode of Raw prior to starting this 1998 deep dive we’re moving on the December 28th episode. It might have taken three months longer than I had originally intended but this is the final episode of this project so let’s get to it.

WWF Raw Is War (December 14, 1998)

I’ve got two more of these fucking 1998 Raws left to review so let’s get on with it. This is the December 14, 1998 episode and it’s the Raw after Rock Bottom so let’s see what kind of fall out from that certainly all time great show we get on this here show…
