This week on Random Reviews, we go back in the time machine to 1997, and find out some of the matches we’d have seen if we were only allowed to watch WCW Worldwide. Originally starting in the 70s, Worldwide was home to the infamous “Disney tapings”, where hours of content were taped in one evening, resulting in dead crowds by the end of it all.

Back in the day, WCW was known for it’s flagship show – Monday Nitro – hence, the Monday Night Wars. At the peak of their popularity, WCW then created a second major weekly in January 1998, called Thunder – beating out WWE’s SmackDown by around eighteen months. This week on Random Reviews, we take a look at some of the action that graced our screens in WCW’s “B-show that tried to be an A-show”.

Before Monday Night Raw became WWE’s A-show, one of the company’s biggest shows was its weekly syndicated Superstars program. This week in Random Reviews, we go back and look at some not-so-choice picks from back in the day.
This week on Random Reviews, we take a dive into the archives of New Japan World, and pull out some matches from years gone by – with a hat-tip to Senor Lariato on Twitter, and his recommended watching list!
One of the complaints we’ve had on this website is that we don’t give much coverage to TNA. Well, since the company seems to be doing very little in the way of specialised/pay-per-view events and focussing on weekly television specials, we’re going to take a look back at some of the matches that TNA have made available from their “Xplosion” B-show.
It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these, but it’s time for some free wrestling goodness from the wide world of YouTube.
