THIS was terrible! there is no way that luger could have fended off the whole NWO! they should have at least had the Giant come out and help fend off the NWO...come on!
I was actually at that Nitro on August 4th, 1997. I was only 8 at the time and just days before I turned 9 (August 9 the night of that year's Hog Wild is my b-day) and I remember the crowd being so anti Hogan and anti NWO and when Luger hit that rack the crowd went berzerk and it was crazy.
I remember watching this at the time, being glad Luger won, then remembering they had a PPV in 5 days, with this as the main event, instantly realizing they were gonna give it right back to Hogan...This is about the time when the whole nWo thing started getting VERY old, and stupid in a lot of ways (like Piper beating Hogan for the title at Havoc, then Hogan just keeping the belt after a post match attack and still being recognized as champ by WCW...it was like, wtf?!?)
I want to thank who ever is showing these videos i was wondering is there any more nitro after 8.4.1997.I couldnt find any i love wcw if u have ones all the way up till the last nitro air's that would be lovely I'm really want to see if Sting comes back to wcw
look at the crowd. wwe prays for a pop like that. not even wrestlemania matches get this kinda reaction. sad to see what wrestling use to be to what it is now. wish we could go back. i think if we all knew then what we know now we would have never turned on wcw (though i never did) ........just saying.
@jghor23 ...well i will give u that..tna to a degree sux but nothing sucks worse than wwe. tna is at least trying to recreate some magic and aim to adults where as with wwe we suffer thru john cena,batista,hornswoggle,stupid guest host, crappy divas, and a plethora of other crap. tna has its crap but its better in my opinion.
Not putting this on PPV thats just good buisness

I was so happy to see Luger beat Hollywood Hogan. Too bad Luger lost the belt at Road Wild 7 days later. SMH

Great moment for Luger and WCW. Too bad it wouldn't last. Nitro wins this Monday Night War over Raw. nWo 4 life.

@charismatic9904 TNA sucks even worse. When RVD won the title recently. It was a weak attempt to recreate this moment.
