Kind of an obvious one, really. It was a big deal when over a year's worth of Nitro episodes were added, taking us right up to the end of 1996. That gives people a half-year worth of the nWo, who formed for good in June of 1996 when Hulk Hogan turned his back on WCW. However, many fans would tell you that 1997 is when Nitro really began to kick things up a few notches. Like mentioned earlier with Raw and Smackdown, it's not like WWE has to add every episode of Nitro all at once. There's plenty of time to roll them out, perhaps giving up a year at a time. Wrestling fans have been given the incredibly skewed and hindsight-heavy look at the Monday Night War through the Network-exclusive show of the same name, but they deserve to make their own decisions on what was good, what wasn't, what went right, and what went wrong. With all of Raw and Nitro's episodes available to watch at any time, everyone could do just that.
