Okay so Raw is War (or Monday Night RAW) was about to go on USA network, what would you do before hand? I would: - finish homework (or has mush as I could.  ) - take a shower - leave the T.V. on USA so I can hear the WWF intro. - set the "flip" button on the controller to TNT, so I can watch Nitro on commercial. |

The next day in school, all of my friends would run up to each other and discuss what happenned the night before, and we'd sometimes perform moves on each other and trade action figures.

I watched both. I would have already been watching Nitro as well. For instance, during 1998, it was hard for me to keep focused on one channel. 1998 is my favorite year for WCW. WWF in 2000. In 1999, I danced between quite alot.

I would either set the channel to USA and wait for Raw to begin in a few minutes, or I would watch Nitro during its first hour until Raw started.
I don't remember watching Nitro all that often (although I probably did on-and-off) when Raw was on, but I remember many times where I would catch the replay of Nitro late on TNT. I would always tune to Nitro when Raw was delayed for whatever reason, too.
I seriously miss those days, but I still tune in every Monday night and look forward to Raw; I can't imagine what Mondays would be like without any wrestling at all.

Back in the day (2000), Raw always aired on a Friday in the UK.
What I did on a Friday was:
Watch WCW Worldwide
Have a Bath
Watch an hour of WCW Nitro
Then watch Raw is War

I'd mostly wach RAW and switch to Nitro during commercials. Sometimes Id put Nitro on the small picture-in-picture screen, but RAW was the main priorty.

I watched the first hour of Nitro when I believe they started at 8 at one point while Raw came on at 9. Then I wouldn't give a crapabout Nitro till Raw was over. Could usually catch the last few minutes of Nitro's main event since they went over like Raw does now.

My parents TV in their bedroom had picture & picture (which was new & rare at that time) so I always put that to use.
