New Year's Evil (12/27/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/04/01

Episode 74: The band is back together and taking over the show! The Outsiders have been stripped of the tag titles so we have a completely random Lethal Lottery Tag Tournament to crown new champions. Someone announces their retirement, but it's not who you think and Billy Kidman gives us life by wrestling a quality match.

97:10

The Band is Back Together (12/20/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/03/23

Episode 73: This one is a doozy and pushes Nick to his mental limit. It's all the fallout from Starrcade and the Screwjob by Roddy Piper. Hopefully nothing awful happens at the end of the show and then something worse happen on Thunder.

87:30

Starrcade 1999

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/03/09

Episode 72: It's supposed to be the biggest night of the year. Instead, we get a ton of Vince Russo shenanigans. There's 13 matches tonight, but in recent Starrcade tradition, people are really only talking about the main event. Luckily, they left the stun guns at home.

73:35

This Is What I Love: Garbage (12/13/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/02/23

Episode 71: We're back after a month of not watching WCW and this was a crash back to Earth. We have new tag champions, Roddy Piper has a torn bicep, Kanyon returns again but with a new gimmick. Plus, Bret Hart sustains a horrifying injury.

96:19

Living Like Larry (12/6/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/02/09

Episode 70: We're 13 days away from Starrcade but you wouldn't know it. Instead, we get a woman being kidnapped, strip poker with the goons and Asya vs. Midnight with absolutely no build and less surprisingly, no finish. But at least we still have La Parka. And that's enough for us.

73:54

Episode 69. Nice. (11/29/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/01/25

Episode 69: In a very nice episode, we get a triple main event with none of them closing the show. Plus, an unexpected journey with the goons and Mean Gene subbing in for Gandalf and the dwarves will be played by strippers

71:17

You Are All Just Bystanders (11/22/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2023/01/11

Episode 68: It's the night after Mayhem and the Filthy Animals are imploding. Speaking of imploding, we get a Nitro Girls breakup match and a whole lot of random piano

97:56

Mayhem 1999

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/12/31

Episode 67: We're arrived at Mayhem 1999 where we'll crown a new WCW Champion. Lucky us, there's somehow 12 matches on this card, with 4 of them being rated in the negative stars. Is it really that bad? We'll have to see, but Emily is definitely over Miss Elizabeth.

70:30

Oklahoma! (11/15/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/12/27

Episode 66: Pinata on a pole! We're 6 days away from Mayhem but we get a lot to talk about tonight: Half brains, pooping, and one of the most infamous gimmicks during the Vince Russo era. Plus somehow, there's a good match.

78:44

David's Just Built Different (11/8/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/12/09

Episode 65: The cold streak continues as there is exactly one good match on this show. Russo continues his Dr. Claw gimmick and Kevin Nash is now a licensed manager. Plus, Seven is here! And boy does he have something to say...

80:14

Forklift Certified Perry Saturn (11/1/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/11/28

Episode 64: "Norman Smiley is saving this show". This is an actual quote from this episode. Stay tuned for more tangents than a trigonometry class as we plow through a pretty lousey Nitro and Kevin Nash not giving a fuck anymore.

73:00

This Is Just Evidence (10/25/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/11/14

Episode 63: The WCW Title has been vacated and now 32 wrestlers will try to claim the title. This is, of course, separate from the three porn stars/strippers that wrestle on this show but that pretty much expresses how things are going. Although Hogan's not here; so there's that.

69:48

Halloween Havoc 1999

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/10/31

Episode 62: Trick or Treat! It's the possibly the worst show we've ever reviewed so there are no treats here, though Emily does have a Slim Jim for the occasion. This show is the first Vince Russo PPV and to say it shows would be an understatement.

99:52

Enter Vince Russo (10/18/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/10/18

Episode 61: We've finally made it to the Vince Russo era. Will it feel like it on the show? 100%. but its a job we're willing to do. We also have our awards after one year of programming plus a little extra bonus quiz testing Emily's knowledge

75:40

Calm Before the Storm (10/11/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/10/12

Episode 60: The show is on autopilot tonight as the writers are about to lose their jobs. We do get Goldberg vs Hogan, but not like that. It's Horace Hogan. David Flair continues to looks like a putz and Nick and Emily argue over soda because if the writers don't need to focus, why should we?

74:58

22?! WHY ME? (10/4/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/09/30

Episode 59: Sid and Goldberg's car drama comes to an end, the Outsiders return and it's the night of the famous Owen Hart tribute match between Bret Hart and Chris Benoit. Elsewhere, Sid almost gets squashed and the Cruiserweight Title has mysteriously changed hands.

61:52

Man vs Car (9/27/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/09/16

Episode 58: It's a night of squash matches that for some reason aren't squash matches. Goldberg kills Sid's car; Berlyn continues to fall; And we get a mask vs hair match for the second time on the podcast

61:24

Oh, You Weren't Looking? (9/20/99 Nitro)

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/09/08

Episode 57: Chris Benoit finally gets his World Title shot but almost has the rug pulled out from under him again before it happens. Scott Steiner is back with a disgusting record, Surge Watch makes a triumphent return and we say good riddance to a long hated gimmick.

Wrestlemania 24

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/08/29

Episode 56: Surprise! It's a bonus episode! It's Ric Flair's last match. Shut up. Yes, it is. Lalalalalalalalala I can't hear you.

ECW Anarchy Rulz 1999

Butts in the Seats Podcast ·

2022/08/24

Episode 55: We go back to ECW for a PPV so extreme, it swaps an "S" for a "Z". There's two three way dances, including Taz's last match in the company. Plus we get New Jack doing his thing for better or worse. Scratch that, it's always for worse.
