Rumble 92 is them at their most self-indulgent, rambling, anecdote driven worst imo. The ONS episode is pretty interesting on the other hand and a more gentle introduction to the whole thing.
I could be totally off though.

just listen to a review of a show you love and see what you think. I think you'll know after one listen whether you like the format.
my first lapsed fan was the mega 7 hour spectacular for the mains x7. I listened to it while I finished the single player for Destiny. I was hooked since then.
on lapsed fan, not destiny. that game is the shits.

What are you talking about, what leadership change?
Bobby Heenan.

That's why I picked those particular episodes; Halloween Havoc '97 is awesome, and I love Canadian Stampede. However, I remember One Night Stand 2006 the best, so I might check that one out first.
The Rumble match itself feels like a complete story. It's so fun to watch end to end.
This.
While Flair was great, I doubt I could watch the same match with Michael Cole and JBL.
Heenan keeps you entertained the whole hour plus.

Oh ok, I was worried something happened with Phil. If he is still leading when we movie on from this generation, I think the next Xbox will something to behold. He gets it, he really does.

He could be reintroduced at Wrestle Kingdom, as they did with El Desperado - who wrestled the next day on the New Year's Dash show at Korakuen Hall. But, yeah, it's a safe bet that he'll be coming over with the CMLL crew for FantasticaMania. Also, NJPW chairman Kidani hinted that they'd be having another CMLL wrestler over for a long-term excursion in 2016, similar to Mascara Dorada's stay in Japan this year - keeping my fingers crossed that it's Dragon Lee, they've got great chemistry together and it'd be the perfect way to introduce Kamaitachi. Even if it isn't Dragon Lee, I'd certainly expect him vs Kamaitachi to be on the FantasticaMania shows.
In my slow and plodding 1996 WWE and WCW re-watch, I just got through the Nitros leading up to and Bash At The Beach.
Best match on the card was easily Rey Mysterio Jr. vs Psycosis, even though it wasn't the greatest of the cruiserweight matches during that era.
This show was always a one match card. Everything else was kinda just there. The way they built the main event throughout the show made it. You don't see many main events built like that in wrestling today, and it worked to build hype. My fiance who had not seen any of WCW, and only knew that Hulk turned heel at some point, was predicting something with either Luger or Bischoff that night. She knew immediately what was going down though when Hogan came out.
Now I'm moving on to Summerslam 96'.

I have a Samsung and my PS4 does this. I didn't even have to set it up and discovered the feature by accident. I press the PS button on my controller and it will turn on my PS4, turn on my TV and switch the input to the PS4.
The HDMI link with the PS4 honestly sucks though compared to what the Xbox One and even the Wii-U can do (the tablet on the Wii-U can double as a remote control). I also believe you still cant navigate menus in Netflix or Hulu this way either, so it's worthless.
It thinks it is John Cena.

Hey, I have a Bravia!
The link does let you move around the menus, and seems to work on Netflix, Amazon and YouTube that I remember.
The link does have a habit of either turning the PS4 back on after you turn it off, or even turning the whole TV back on after you turn it off.

I just got an Xbox One a few weeks back, but I've left my 360 plugged in so I can still play stuff not on BC yet/ever. What is this media center business?
Late 91 was pretty interesting and that rolled into RR 92. Tunney vacating the title and making the rumble worth so much more, Macho trying to get his hands on Jake, HBK fresh into his singles run, Piper potentially winning the IC and the World belt on the same night, about 10 guys you could actually believe as winners for the rumble, and the whole time Heenan was knocking it out of the park. The undercard is kind of forgettable, but the rumble match itself is probably the best that event's ever had.

Whos ready for another garbage RAW?
Bret missed the Rumble but he had that on-going feud with The Mountie which I enjoyed. Piper getting the IC title led to their great bout at Mania. All around it had engaging stuff, promos, guys knowing how to work in the ring, commentary that didn't mock the audience.
It's a shameful thing.
Savage kept it 100 that night.

Jake is the king of keeping it 100.

And then wait in the ring as the heel teases walking in but then walks away

Today you could never do this kind of "person in the crowd" promo because every smarky asshole and his brother would be chanting bullshit over them.
Media Center is how I watch over the air TV. I have an antenna hooked up to my pc, and my xbox 360 sees my pc, and the xbox one sees my 360.
Simple!
All 3 of them are but I blame Vince being in their ears. Commentary is there to call matches and get people over...not just hawk shit for 3 hours. The fact that there's no dedicated heel on commentary has been a long standing complaint of mine for years now.
I honestly think it's mostly Vince's fault. Cole's commentary gets so much better when Vince isn't in his ear
Well hell, I might have to try this.
If there's a heel on commentary and steps on that invisible line, there's that somebody who makes a thread in the Off Topic forum trying to get a petition to get him removed for being offensive.

I'd argue that now more than ever commentary needs to hawk shit. Times change, and you gotta sell the product. And selling it based on what's going on in the ring isn't as effective. It's a necessary evil, I feel.

I think the heel commentator is passes its expiration date.,
Just give me a team like Mauro and,barnett to call the action
