21 WTF Moments From WCW Nitro (Jan 19th, 1998)

Chaos continues from the New Orleans Superdome on Nitro....

It's time once again to hop in the DeLorean and head back to January of 1998, for another look at some WTF moments from the Superdome in New Orleans on Monday Nitro on January 19th, 1998. One of the biggest takeaways (compared to watching a current episode of Monday Night RAW) is that on this Nitro, there are around fifteen stars who are all pushed, heavily-featured and feel like big names. There's also a feeling of chaos throughout the show where anything could happen, which enhances the viewing experience tenfold. This episode is also the go-home Nitro for the upcoming weekend's Souled Out pay per-view, which oddly enough took place on a Saturday. Going into this edition of WCW's prime time show, there were more questions about the dissension of the New World Order along with the final build towards The Giant facing Kevin Nash and Ric Flair battling Bret Hart at the PPV. Now after last week's article, one lovely WhatCulture reader asked that I put a warning on the first page because this list contains information about what happens on the show.
