Goldberg saw NITRO bring its audience back, going from a 4.6 to a 6.5 (7.75 million viewers), taking many of those viewers back from RAW which went from a 5.9 to a 5.1. The growth of the final segment of NITRO, was an incredible 2.1 million viewers, among the biggest growth periods in history. Between the two shows on that night during the overrun, there were 8,642,000 homes & 13,827,000 different viewers watching wrestling.” - Dave Meltzer [Wrestling Observer Newsletter - 31st July 2012]FPOD edition of NITRO drew a 5.0 rating - the highest NITRO rating since Oct 21, 98. THUNDER 3 days later drew a 4.3 rating - the joint 2nd highest rating in the history of that show. NITRO on Jan 11, 99 also drew a 5.0 rating - if FPOD had a negative impact then how come it had enough interest to draw same huge rating the very next week?
>>19523473>>19523509This. It already happened the Faggy Finger Tap of Doom. While Gunther applied the loosest sleeper hold in the history of wrestling.
>>19523473I don't know, sorry.
>>19525192Good point, the fingerpoke of doom was poorly applied and it made the match look hokey.Instantly vaporised WCW's audience overnight.
