    C. K. Punk: I first got into wrestling back in 1997, watching primarily Monday Night Raw. I am surprised to see how “raw” (no pun intended) the production quality is on this compared to what I remember for the RAW is WAR format. I suspect that this will improve a lot when RAW goes to 2 hour format and especially the RAW is WAR theme. For right now, WCW has a large edge in production quality over WWF.

    I must say that I am overall impressed at the production quality of WCW, especially when considering its WWF counterpart. There is a good balance of drama and matches, as well as match variety. This is literally the first time I watched more than a couple minutes of a WCW Nitro episode, let alone the full two hours. Some various thoughts here:

    • I find Rick Flair very annoying. His “woooooo” every few words is obnoxious.
    • Commentary was overall good, but it did get a bit silly towards the latter part with the bickering and the intentional long, convoluted statements.
    • Surprised to see Hulk/Hollywood hogan as heel. Also, does he paint his unshaven portion of his beard black?
