BONUS: WCW Nitro (07-18-00, US Title Tournament)

This show was definitely the epitome of "the Vince Russo era" of WCW. There were jumpstarts, afterbirths, tournaments, weapons all over the place, no real heels or faces, whacky turns, returns out of nowhere, and Russo himself on camera. Lance Storm was certainly the star of this show, but let's be honest...there are NO STARS in this era of WCW. The new United States Champion is crowned, Scott Steiner and Goldberg collide, 3 Count & the Jung Dragons continue their never ending feud, Jeff Jarrett is hitting people with guitars, clowns and demons are fighting, and the whackiness continues! In the news, we discuss continued fallout from Russo shooting his mouth off about Hulk Hogan at Bash at the Beach, the fallout from XPW "wrestlers" (using that term loosley) showing up at an ECW show in SoCal, ECW continuing to push for a new show after getting dropped by TNN, promotional wars in Japan, Buff Bagwell in legal hot water, the WWF punching back against censorship, and much, much more! This is a long episode, but it's got A LOT of stuff crammed into it!
