    The Monday Night Wars continue to escalate as Wrestling War Zone returns with JT & Chad breaking down WCW Monday Nitro and WWF Raw is War from September 15, 1997. WCW rolls forward following Fall Brawl as the nWo’s grip on the company remains stronger than ever, while tensions continue to build between the black-and-white faction and WCW loyalists. With the fallout from Curt Hennig’s betrayal of the Four Horsemen still fresh, Nitro pushes deeper into the chaos that defined WCW’s unforgettable 1997 run.

Stone Cold Steve Austin remains the company’s biggest disruptor as his issues with Vince McMahon and the Hart Foundation continue escalating. Undertaker and Shawn Michaels remain central figures in the company’s hottest rivalries, while Raw continues evolving into a faster, edgier, and more unpredictable wrestling show. JT & Chad break down: • Fallout from Fall Brawl and WarGames on Nitro • The nWo’s continued dominance in WCW • Stone Cold Steve Austin’s rise in WWF • Undertaker, Shawn Michaels, and the build to Hell in the Cell • Key matches, promos, and character development • Which company won the week in the Monday Night Wars Which promotion delivered the stronger show as the war between WWF and WCW intensified in September 1997?
