The Monday Night Wars are heating up as Wrestling War Zone returns! On episode 168, Chad & JT break down WCW Monday Nitro and WWF Raw is War from October 27, 1997, as WCW deals with the fallout from Halloween Havoc and the WWF barrels toward Survivor Series!

On WCW Monday Nitro, the fallout from Halloween Havoc 1997 takes center stage! Hollywood Hogan and Eric Bischoff celebrate their latest assault on Roddy Piper, but the mysterious Sting remains a looming threat to the nWo.

Meanwhile, the rivalry between Randy Savage and Diamond Dallas Page continues after their brutal Las Vegas Sudden Death Match, while Ric Flair battles Savage in another major showdown.

The cruiserweight division remains red-hot as newly crowned champion Rey Mysterio Jr. faces Dean Malenko, fresh off his unforgettable victory over Eddie Guerrero. Plus, Eddie Guerrero battles Chris Jericho, the Steiner Brothers continue their run as WCW Tag Team Champions, and Goldberg's undefeated streak continues to build momentum.

Over on WWF Raw is War, the road to Survivor Series 1997 gets increasingly personal!

Bret Hart defends the WWF Championship against Ken Shamrock, but Shawn Michaels and D-Generation X ensure that the evening ends in chaos. With the Hart Foundation and DX seemingly incapable of coexisting, the tensions between Bret and Shawn are reaching a boiling point.

Meanwhile, Stone Cold Steve Austin continues targeting Owen Hart and the Intercontinental Championship, inserting himself into Owen's match against Ahmed Johnson and making his presence felt with another Stunner.

DX continues pushing the boundaries, Triple H battles Goldust, and the growing partnership of Billy Gunn and Jesse James keeps shaking up the tag team division.

The Monday Night Wars hit another wild week as Wrestling War Zone returns! On episode 166, Chad & JT break down WWF Raw is War and WCW Monday Nitro from October 20, 1997, with Survivor Series approaching for the WWF and WCW just six days away from Halloween Havoc.

On Raw is War, former WCW star Jeff Jarrett makes his return to the WWF and immediately grabs the microphone for a memorable worked-shoot promo. Jarrett takes aim at Eric Bischoff and WCW before turning his attention toward his own WWF past — and firing shots at Vince McMahon, Shawn Michaels and Stone Cold Steve Austin in the process.

Meanwhile, the war between D-Generation X and the Hart Foundation continues to intensify. Shawn Michaels battles Owen Hart, while Bret Hart takes on Faarooq with DX and the Nation of Domination adding even more chaos to the proceedings. And, of course, Stone Cold Steve Austin isn't far away, delivering another Stunner as his showdown with Owen Hart for the Intercontinental Championship at Survivor Series draws closer.

The Undertaker also addresses Kane, making it clear that despite everything Paul Bearer and his brother have done, he still refuses to fight his own flesh and blood.

Over on WCW Monday Nitro, it's the final stop before Halloween Havoc 1997, and the nWo finds itself on the receiving end of a little chaos for a change. Hollywood Hogan, Eric Bischoff and the nWo try to figure out who's hunting them as Sting, Roddy Piper and Diamond Dallas Page loom over the show.

The night ends with Scott Hall battling Scott Steiner, only for nWo trickery to lead to another wild scene involving Piper, DDP and finally the real Sting.

Elsewhere, Eddie Guerrero defends the Cruiserweight Championship against Chris Benoit, Curt Hennig defends the United States Championship against Dean Malenko, Lex Luger battles Booker T, and Goldberg destroys Wrath in just seconds before issuing a simple warning: “Who's next?”
