10 Best WWE Network Shows Of 2018

10. Sunday Night Heat (1998-1999)

You'd be forgiven for being bored rigid with WWE's unending love affair with the Attitude Era (often at the expense of just about everything else), but the mass upload of Sunday Night Heat episodes earlier this year offered countless new-old moments to savour rather than the self-fart-smelling of the D-Generation-X WCW invasion and relentless reruns of Steve Austin's beer bath.

Offering experimental glimpses of a frenetic product rapt in the throes of Vince Russo's better-and-worse booking, the original run of the Sunday night show offers far more than the pre-pay-per-view fodder it would later become known for.

Witness lesser-spotted interactions between Vince McMahon, 'The Rattlesnake' and The Rock, Shane McMahon's rank obnoxiousness as a charming heel characteristic, DX slumming it in midcard matches and more Headbangers/Oddities encounters than you even realised you needed.

A reliance on over-playing the period over the years has made so much of the footage staler than it perhaps should be. Releasing these mostly-forgotten episodes back into the wild has thus been cathartic viewing for those that lived through it the first time and were force to persistently revisit it - this reason to love everything earnestly all over again, rather than with a grizzled groan.
