WCW presented a time-tested concept on 31st January 19 years ago – a Pay Per Listen called Boston Brawl. The event would be streamed live on the WCW website, but only the audio would be present.

WCW announcer Tony Schiavone would call the play by play action – it was basically a radio show.

The card for the Boston Brawl was not a mediocre one, though. It involved the likes of Goldberg, Booker T, Chris Jericho, DDP, nWo, Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Bret Hart and Ric Flair with a Steel cage match between Sting and Hulk Hogan headlining the show.

Ah, those times!!!!
