Sunday Night Heat

Sunday Night Heat is a very strange programme to write about partly because in 1998 and 1999 it was watchable and it included the likes of The Rock, Mankind, Kane, Stone Cold Steve Austin and others on it. Fast forward to 2007 and the same old boring wrestlers appear on it and throw in a couple of jobbers as well, the likes of Val Venis, Eugene and The Highlanders appear on it every flippin Sunday (yawn).

I remember watching Heat in 2000 and 2001 when it appeared on Channel 4 and it was way much better than it is now even though all you got was mostly Perry Saturn on it against Funaki in nearly every main event, but it was exciting to see who would appear on it.

The matches that I thought were good and the wrestlers that I was shocked to see on it included:

Kane vs Road Dogg Jesse James - 2000. Triple H vs Perry Saturn - 2000 The Undertaker and Kane vs Kaientai - 2001 Kurt Angle vs Essa Rios - 2000 The Undertaker vs Christian - 2001 Kane vs Christian - 2002 Triple H vs Hardcore Holly - 2000 Rob Van Dam vs Christian - 2002.

Heat is just simply not the same anymore!

i agree with everyone that ive seen. Heat used to be a cut rate show now its nothing more than filler for TNN.they really need to improve the quality. Instead of having house shows the wwe should really just air live sundays from smaller venues.

This is a pretty good wrestling show to tune into....if you have a computer! It has been taken off TV and the only way you can view it is on wwe.com! It has some pretty good rising and steady talent on it. Such as Matt Striker, Rosey, Gregory Helms and Val Venis.

I have yet to tune in since it went from Television to the internet, but I am looking foreward to tuning in sometime soon.

I cant say I am impressed with the fact that it has moved , but hey what can ya do. It is just as good as velocity.

So My rating judgement is based on what I saw when I actually watched it.

8/10

Sunday Night Heat begin as both a live event show with recaps from Raw but the show really had something going for it.

The best years of the show were 1998 and 1999 because they would have live shows before the Pay Per View events which gave the show real credit.

This was a show that feature a cool theme song and intro for the World Wrestling Federation that got you pump up for the show that's what I loved about the Attitude Era was that even a show like Sunday Night Heat got the fans pump up because you never knew what would happen.

The show feature some good promos and actually did feature some good wrestling matches one of the best ones was the Empty Arena Match between The Rock And Mankind for the World Wrestling Federation Championship on Halftime Heat.

However sadly the show sadly lost it prime following 2005

But still the best years were from 1998 to 1999

WWE Heat simply shows recaps of what happened on the previous week's Raw and Smackdown, and shows dull music videos and substandard matches featuring little known talent and poor commentary by Lita(who has no reason to be an announcer, she sucks) and the Coach, who isn't all that good either. Heat is not a very good show at all. If you really want to know what happened the previous week, just go online, and don't waste your time with this.
