It's weird, but in the midst of everything going on rn, I feel calm.

Like there's a storm brewing and I know it's coming, but I'm ready for the rain.

I guess it's because I know it'll be a rough road, but I'll figure it out no matter what happens.

In this moment I'm truly happy.

It's probably not going to happen within the next five years, but once something like this does become readily available it's no holds barred for history to literally be rewritten (and in a lot of cases not for the better)

Obviously what Chris Benoit did was absolutely heinous and he has not been mentioned in any way shape or form, BUT his wrestling matches remain on Peacock.

What if AI becomes good enough to where it can replace someone with a completely fictional person?

Woke up this morning and had a random thought come up.

With how rapidly AI is improving, how much longer is it until historical video is changed for propaganda purposes or remove someone from footage entirely.

The way this theory began was the case of Chris Benoit

Guy like me, I'm gonna keep dancing at the Pink Pony Club

Fall Brawl 95 Match Ratings

Brian Pillman vs Johnny B. Badd - ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sgt. Craig Pittman vs Cobra - 1/2 ⭐
Diamond Dallas Page vs Renegade - ⭐⭐ 3/4
Harlem Heat vs Dick Slater & Bunkhouse Buck -⭐⭐
Ric Flair vs Arn Anderson -⭐⭐⭐ 1/2
Hulkamaniacs vs Dungeon of Doom - ⭐⭐ 3/4

Show rating 5.5/10.

They really gave WCW fans one good match (Johnny B. Badd vs Brian Pillman) to start and then an awful match and two middling contests on a PPV. If the IWC was around at this point, they'd be tearing WCW apart

Classic LOLWCW moment, Johnny B. Badd wins the match to determine the #1 Contender for the US Title but never gets a title shot.

In fact, Pillman gets the US Title shot on WCW Saturday Night on September 30th.

Rest of Nitro Episode 2 Thoughts

Scott Norton vs Macho Man Randy Savage - ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2
Hulk Hogan vs Lex Luger - ⭐⭐

Overall Show Rating: 5.5. Incredibly safe go-home show leading to Fall Brawl.

Starting Fall Brawl 1995 now #WCW95

One thing I'm loving about the presentation of early Nitro is how they're promoting WCW Saturday Night to try and get people to watch their secondary programming and loaded it with some solid matches.

It doesn't last but it's great to see them actually care about it.

Sting vs VK Wallstreet was a passable match that didn't do much other than put a star out on center stage and VK worked well with Sting. ⭐⭐ 1/2

Halfway through the second episode of Nitro and I'll run through quick thoughts before getting back from lunch.

Alex Wright vs Sabu was a fine match but weird finish with the DQ due to post-match stuff - ⭐⭐

Ric Flair and Luger Town Hall was fun stuff between the two (Lex low-key a solid talker)

The first episode of Nitro really ends on a strong note getting people hooked on the idea of tuning in next week booking Luger and Hogan on the go-home show before Fall Brawl.

Overall Show Rating: 6.5/10 (good pacing, great hook for next week, overall decent show)

Hogan vs Bubba Rogers was definition of 80s WWF wrestling and after we saw two way better matches before this really showed how passe that style of match is.

⭐⭐ #WCWNitro

Flair and Sting can't have a bad match, but they can get knocked down some pegs because of dumb BS.

⭐⭐ 3/4 #WCWNitro

I'll never understand why they ended this good match with a DQ and Arn Anderson beating Flair. The endgame makes this even worse tbh. #WCWNitro

Arn Anderson with the classic Starter jacket fit is iconic #WCWNitro

They booked Flair vs Sting as the second match AND LUGER'S HERE!!!! #WCWNitro

I swear the vibe that the Mall of America had for the first Nitro is peak. Like the shots of the people going up and down the escalator and the top-down shots are insane. #WCWNitro

Every time I get to this segment I'm hearing Jawnny from @deadlockpw.bsky.social doing his Hogan voice. #WCWNitro

Really great opener and if you were watching WCW for the first time it probably sucked you in for a while.

Pillman vs Liger ⭐⭐⭐1/2 #WCWNitro

Bobby Heenan and Mongo really played off of each other really well on commentary #WCWNitro

Tried this a few years ago, but never got past 1995.

Rewatching WCW from the first Nitro onward. The fact they opened with Pillman and Jushin Thunder Liger is amazing to me.

So #NFL fans, what's the reason why you hate the Kansas City Chiefs? This is a genuine question and just interested in the why because I feel the answer would be interesting.
