* NeverLiveItDown: Take a look at how many of the trope examples for this show are directly related to the FingerpokeOfDoom. Decades later and it's ''still'' haunting Wrestling/EricBischoff, let alone the legacy of WCW.

* SpiritualSuccessor: ''[[Wrestling/AllEliteWrestling AEW Dynamite]]'' (sometimes known as ''Wednesday Night Dynamite''), debuting on TNT in 2019, almost 2 decades after ''Nitro'' aired its last episode, picked up where WCW left off as the attempt to provide an alternative mainstream wrestling product to WWE. Although it didn't directly attempt to challenge WWE head-to-head the way Bischoff did with ''Nitro'', it ended up [[DuelingShows facing off against]] ''Wrestling/{{WWE NXT}}'' when Vince moved ''NXT'' from the WWE Network to the USA Network to compete against it[[note]]after getting flogged unmercifully for a year and a half, NXT was moved to Tuesday nights instead[[/note]]. ''Dynamite'' even features some performers who actually used to appear on ''Nitro'' back in the day, such as Wrestling/TonySchiavone, Wrestling/ChrisJericho, and Wrestling/{{Sting}}.

* DarthWiki/FallenCreator: It seems like since the 90's, we've had a couple of WCW guys trying to weasel their way back in and succeeding at it due to gullible moneymen. Russo did it multiple times, Hogan and Bischoff did it with TNA, and Jeff Jarrett is doing it now with two big promotions!

* TheScrappy: David Arquette winning the WCW title caused Nitro's ratings to drop five points and ticket sales to come to a near halt. Even David himself was unhappy about that angle, as he felt it was a cheap stunt.

-->'''Wrestling/EricBischoff''' (4.17.97 Prodigy chat): I read somewhere if something is working [[HeadInTheSandManagement don't try to fix it.]] Our ratings are high, our arenas are selling out, we can't keep merchandise in inventory. You're right ... there must be something wrong with ''Nitro''.
