Nitro Episode 27 Review - 11 March 1996
Get ready for the not at all overbooked 6 man, lumberjack, double strap match of team Hogan vs Team Flair in Flair's hometown. No way WCW would be stupid enough to make Flair take the pin then right? Over on Raw there is a Rookie called Dwayne Johnson debuting in a dark march and Stunning Steve...
