When it was at it's true height of popularity, WCW Monday Nitro was not only the most viewed wrestling television show in the world, but one of the most watch television shows period. WCW Nitro had recorded record viewership numbers and managed to gain more traction and viewers than it's main rival, WWF Monday Night Raw. All good things must come to an end though, and when WCW came to an end due to a ton of internal issues, the WWF swept in and purchased the company. The final episode of WCW Nitro took place on March 26th 2001, and the night will go down as one of the most historic and noteworthy dates in pro wrestling. Featuring a one of a kind simulcast, Vince McMahon was able to appear on WWF Raw and WCW Nitro at the same time, live, to address the WCW fans and wrestlers. Along with this, a new WCW World Heavyweight Champion was crowned in Booker T, and Sting vs Ric Flair happened one more time in the last ever match on WCW Nitro. The last segment, however, featured Shane McMahon announcing that he owns WCW, not his father Vince. This mini documentary takes a look at the last episode of WCW Nitro.
