I was still into WCW more at the time. From 87-92 I watched both WCW/NWA and WWF but about 1993 I went more into WCW. Around late 1997, I picked up WWF again. I casually watched it from 93-97 but wasnt strict about it like I was WCW.

In the UK we used to get Raw on Sky Sports on a Friday and WCW on Bravo around the same time - remember flickinh between the two. Happy days

used to flip back and forth between both...
indeed, EVERY Monday was like party time with me and 2 of my friends...we'd sit back ,order pizza,wings,subs,etc., drink a lot of beer,and watch the 2 - 3 hours of wrestling presented to us....
by mid 1999,though,it was mainly just RAW we were watching,as WCW began to suck badly...

Definitely more into WWF. I was OBSESSED with The Rock. I would always watch the first hour of Nitro just waiting for RAW to start and then immediately switch channels when the time came. Then when Raw was having a commercial I would switch over to Nitro for a brief period before switching back to Raw when the commercials were over. GREAT  ING TIMES |

I was about 10 during the wars (23 now ) and only watched WWF. Had I been older I would have watched both but I was stupid lol.

I was always a WWF guy. I STILL don't see why people loved WCW.

Like Eddie/Rey, etc. But it was pretty much the same thing, and at the time me being not even ten, with WWF always changing and pushing new guys it always appealed to me. |

I know what you mean man-I was 16 when the nWo was formed but by the time I was 18 in 98 I had tired of WCW greatly |

Nitro became must see TV for awhile,because you never knew what was going to happen...
from the first episode,with Luger appearing less than 24 hours after a WWE house show...
Aludra Blaze/Medusa throwing the WWF Women's title in the trash on live TV...
of course,the nWo...
seemed like almost every week someone would appear after jumping from either the WWF or ECW....
bringing the high-flying and Luchadore style to mainstream America....
...while the WWF was still trying to forge a new identity in the post-Hogan era.... they never stood a chance,til they firmly entrenched themselves in the Attitude Era way of doing things,and rode it to victory....

I loved WCW for its sports show style format it presented in 1997 and 1998 on Nitro, before it became too promo heavy. I LOVED the format, and I LOVED the undercard, and in some cases, the main events were entertaining.

Happy days Before then Nitro was shown on TNT (which would come on after Cartoon Network closed down for the night) at around 8pm on a Friday and when that finished at 10, Raw would start on Sky Sports. I think it would then get repeated around 1 or 2 am. |

The best days (here in the States) were during the Summer or when I didnt have school on a tuesday and I could stay up late. Id watch Raw first and then the replay of Nitro, that way I didnt miss a thing.

I didn't really watch it around that time but saw some of it On Demand. From what I saw, I enjoyed Nitro more.

I was watching WWF.
I treated WCW like I do TNA. I tried to tune in but just couldn't get into it.
