KNITRO Knotfest LLC

It's the 1995 season finale of Knitro and we wind down with the biggest show of the year, WCW Starrcade 1995, which features a WCW vs. New Japan cup series of matches and the first ever triangle match in WCW with Ric Flair, Sting and Lex Luger. Macho Man's tricep still hasn't fallen off and he puts in a hell of a performance but Jordan, Bo and Rob spend the whole show distracted by how hilarious Dusty Rhodes is. We will be going on a bit of a hiatus after this episode so we hope you've enjoyed our recap of 1995 WCW Monday Nitros. Please reach out to @KnitroPod with any and all feedback, it means so much to hear from you!

Lex Luger is in his contractually mandated weekly match and we decide we are not fans of the torture rack. We also see Macho Man, Sting and Ric Flair be the coolest dudes in the room. We learn that Hulk Hogan is suspended and make our way to our season finale, reviewing Starrcade 95 next week.

The infamous return of Madusa kicks off this WCW Monday Nitro as she throws the WWF Women's Championship in the trash. The crew react to this legendary moment in the Monday Night Wars. Plus, William "The Refrigerator" Perry helps Mongo calm Hulk Hogan down and we all decide that Arn Anderson is the most handsome man alive.

Nitro is in Horsemen Country in Charlotte, NC and that's bad news for Hulk Hogan, who, once again, gets booed out of the building. Plus Mr. Wonderful's entrance theme gets stuck in Rob's head and we're reminded of how much we love Ric Flair and Arn Anderson.

We are back on the 1995 timeline as Bo joins us to witness a really weak episode of Nitro. Luger faces Macho Man for the world title, Hulk Hogan makes a surprise appearance, and Ric Flair brings out Charles Barkley with a fit straight out of 2022. We also get our first look at the problematic promotion for WCW Starrcade.

Indie star EFFY joins us for this final flash-forward episode where we jump another few months in the Russo timeline to the night that David Arquette defends the WCW World Heavyweight Championship against DDP and Jeff Jarrett. Plus, Rob recaps the rest of the show including the birth of Captain Hugh G. Rection, Vampiro vs. Sting (aka STANG) and some great insight from Effy.
