Monday Mar 25, 2024
The Scores is back to review a new Monday night fight between WWE Raw and it’s WCW rival Nitro.
We may have been on the sidelines for a spell, but Nitro settled us back in with the usual mess as a bribed Booker T, the presence of the Taskmaster and Hulk Hogan forgetting his own name all had us scratching our heads. Meanwhile, over on Raw, it was the first run out since Wrestlemania, and a ram-packed card included Mankind’s long-awaited debut, the Undertaker slugging it out with the future JBL and THAT roll up from Barry Horowitz. What, you don’t know the roll up? Give over. Well, have a listen and we’ll tell you all about it.

TMNS take their first trip to WrestleMania, with the 1996 edition of the WWE’s annual extravaganza coming under review. An Iron Man epic for championship gold featuring Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels filled the main event slot on a show that also included a big debut, an inexplicable squash and an unscheduled bra and panties match.

S2E10 - The Giant’s Rage Against The Washing Machine
Monday May 15, 2023
Monday May 15, 2023
There’s a double dose of WCW in this episode of The Scores, before Raw takes us home for Wrestlemania XII.
We start with a review of the PPV Uncensored, a title that also applied to all of Eric Bischoff’s booking meetings for the show, then it’s on to Nitro, where the Lex Luger renaissance builds up a head of steam.
Across the aisle, there were fireworks expected from WWF as they signed off a marathon taping session in San Antonio’s Freeman Coliseum, but Raw barely struck a match as Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels built for their Mania Iron Man bout. Our review was a lot livelier than the show; hit that play button and listen for yourself.

The Scores steamer is leaving the station for another review of Monday Night Wars action, with Nitro looking to build on their 13-10 lead over Raw.
Bischoff’s boys are flying thanks to the white-hot Steiners and the shock resurgence of Lex Luger, while the Dungeon of Doom’s turgid quest to kill Hulk-a-Mania continues…unfortunately.
Raw have got Wrestlemania right around the corner, so Vince and the gang are bound to put on a good show, right? Right? Have a listen and find out.

S2E8 - Scott Steiner and the Wheel of Misfortune

Friday Feb 03, 2023
It’s a 2-on-1 handicap match on this episode, as two Raws go under the Scores microscope alongside a solitary Nitro.
There’s some biblical ball dropping from the boys booking WCW, pitting The Giant against Hacksaw Jim Duggan to counteract WWF’s official unveiling of Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Thankfully, there’s a show-saving performance from the Steiner Brothers, before Hulk Hogan, Ric Flair and co rekindle their long-running main event rivalry.
Over on Raw, the stars are out in force, with the Undertaker, Yokozuna, Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels all gracing the screen.
It’s a stacked Scores show and you can listen to it all by hitting that play button.

Our short break is over and the Scores Squad are striding back down the ramp for the first TMNS of 2023.
The latest Nitro features a Chicago-centric squabble involving the Road Warriors and WCW’s tag team champs, while the uneagerly-anticipated debut of the Bootyman besmirches the main event slot.
Meanwhile, on Raw, we hit a traffic jam on the road to Wrestlemania as…not a lot happens at all really. Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels meet for a Roddy Piper-mediated parlay, Jake Roberts returns to the ring and Diesel is forced to relive his casket-dismantling difficulties.

S2E6 - Enter The Bootyman

Thursday Oct 20, 2022
Join us for Raw, Nitro and In Your House 6 on this episode, as the WWF returns to the Monday Night Warzone following a week-long stint on the sidelines.
Vince McMahon’s troops served up a stellar show featuring Goldust, a Stone Cold Ringmaster and The Undertaker, while Razor Ramon delivers a promo for the ages after a PPV to forget.
Meanwhile, The Bootyman ditches his Zodiac gimmick to sully a dour episode of Nitro, most notable for the fact it saw HULK HOGAN LOSE FOR THE SECOND TIME IN TWO WEEKS.
Like the sound of that? Well, you’ll love the sound of this episode, so grab some headphones and press that play button.

S2E5 - Loch Ness and the American Fails

Friday Sep 23, 2022
With the network forcing Raw into a seat on the sidelines as America’s finest canines slid into their regular time slot, this week in ’96 allowed Nitro a free swing at Monday night’s wrestling masses.
Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage and Ric Flair all featured, but Bischoff’s boys’ decision to unleash the Loch Ness Monster on the helpless TV audience and poor Scottie Riggs provided the show’s most noteworthy moment.
Unopposed Nitro are guaranteed to take their Monday Night Scores lead to 11-9, but will they do enough to sway the Raw faithful to stick around beyond this WWF-free week? Hit the play button to find out.
Matches include:
Hugh Morrus vs Randy Savage
Mean Gene interviews Nascar’s Steve Grissom
Scotty Riggs vs. Loch Ness (w/ Jimmy Hart)
Miss Elizabeth, Woman & Ric Flair Promo
Konnan (c) vs. Dangerous Devon Storm for the United States Championship

Nitro’s ratings win over Raw last time levelled The Monday Night Scores at 9-9 and the boys are back to review another 90’s wrestling ruckus as both brands look to reclaim the advantage.
Plenty of revelations on this week’s shows – Hulk Hogan can’t do first aid, Diesel swings both ways and, thanks to mystery assailant Paul Orndorff, we learn the broom is mightier than both the pen and the sword.
