SHOT OF NOSTALGIA #1.12: WCW 1996 | MAY 27th & JUN 3rd MONDAY NITRO | SCOTT HALL WANTS A WAR!

The Turnbuckle Tavern

In episode 12 ACEFIELD RETRO is back with MIKE BELCASTER to discuss the MAY 27th 1996 & the JUNE 3rd episodes of Monday Night Nitro. We continue to travel back in time and revisit the news as it happened in real-time. This episode is sure to be a certified great time. SCOTT HALL interrupts and changes the trajectory of WCW forever?! We break down the ramifications and what we thought of the debut all of these years later. This week is sure to be an important episode and who knows how many DQ finishes will force us to take SHOTS OF NOSTALGIA live on air. We are treated to two great tag matches when ROCK 'N ROLL EXPRESS take on ARN & RIC FLAIR & LUGER & STING take on THE STEINERS. Of course, we look through the newsletter & take the pulse of what’s going on in the wrestling world. Did you know HAKUSHI was rumored as the original 3rd man? WHAT?! We compare 1996's to today’s landscape as well. Great conversation! Hop aboard the time-traveling bandwagon on the Tavern and grab your weekly Shot of Nostalgia. As always, tip your bartenders & learn from the past!
