I can easily see Bischoff taking that cheap shot at Raw. Hopefully, The Giant wins tonight. Happy to see Savage garner the win. Wasn't that big a fan of Adams. Nothing great, nothing too special. Looks like Adams' leaving nWo. Ciclope winning is fine. The way he won was the right move. Jericho bustin' out all of the insults, tonight. DDP wining is good and expected. Happy to see DDP turn down the Wolfpac. Nice match between Giant/Luger. Tought you said it was going to be Nash/Giant. Maybe I just misread it. Don't know who the mole is. Maybe Giant? Overall, really nice show. Not that big a fan of the layout, but hey, look at mine. It seemed short, though. At least for a Nitro. As Tony & Mike run down the card and remind the viewers that tonight is a special one hour episode due to the NBA Playoffs Oops, didn't see that there. Now I feel like an ass. ![:P](http://www.wrestlingfigs.com/images/tongue.gif)

WCW Monday Nitro: Monday 18th May 1998...Yeah, as others have stated, the layout for this is ugly. The logo is massive and far too big. I sort've like the links and dialogue involved but we don't need to know what a wrestler said word for word. A brief description would be much better is what I'll say. Also because it makes it seem like the promo would be two minutes long, as opposed to the vintage ten minute promos. I would definitely cut down on the centered font. And for God's sake, get rid of the Verdana font. Arial or Tahoma is your best bet. Randy Savage beating Brian Adams is actually a credible opening contest. didn't see much point in Adams attacking Vincent and his nWo members, why was Eric Bischoff there? He wouldn't care with these undercarders. If you make Adams a credible face uppercarder, that would be great. Dean Malenko against Ciclope has logic since Malenko impersonated Ciclope in the battle royal at Slamboree. Chris Jericho's security wouldn't happen for another few months though, don't see the point in them appearing here. At least they made sense in real life: parodying Goldberg. Here, against Malenko, there's no logic. They're just there. Did like JJ Dillon's involvement, but there is really no point for Dillon in WCW anymore. He was really only around for the cruiserweight division, which is obviously inferior to WCW at this point in time. Diamond Dallas Page beating Mike Enos is good. Nothing special. The nWo Wolfpack were an interesting faction, just try and make them decent against nWo Hollywood. Their faction war was so boring. In fact, it just proved how weak the WCW roster were in facing up to the original nWo. Classic non-finish main event with Bret Hart getting involved and involving himself between Lex Luger and the Giant. Good show, liked how you kept it one hour due to the pre-emptions that took place here. Exclusive matches...Reese was a nice big man but with little talent. Got the Flock over I guess. Marty Jannetty with the win against Norman Smiley is good also. Marty could have fitted in nicely in WCW, he wasn't given too much of a chance. High Voltage beating the Faces of Fear sucks. The reverse decision however, makes Meng and the Barbarian look badass. Wish you'd explain the Exclusive Match results in more detail. Didn't like the nWo Japan team beating Curt Hennig and Konnan, unless Hollywood got involved. Overall, decent start to the diary, just a lot to explain and correct.

I don’t recall anything good ever happening on Nitro when it was only an hour in 1997 or 1998 for that matter. Lets see how this starts off. I thought the promo to start off with Bischoff and Hogan was written very well. You really have a good understanding of their characters. Adams face turn? Interesting.. I really like your promo writing. The Jericho stuff was very entertaining. I guess Nash and Hall are faces? Seemed kind of odd that they would just accept the rejection. No surprise that the main ended in a no contest. Interested as to who the mole is in the New World Order. Decent start to the diary.. Looking forward to the three hour Nitros to see how those go!
