November 17, 1998 Recap (Las Vegas Week)

Hey guys. So as you all may know all the placeholders in the Tonight on WOF section are gone. They are all gone thanks to me. I have been spending my summer break typing up recaps for all of them and I got finished with all of them this past Monday. They all got posted on Tuesday night. Since I am done typing up recaps for all the placeholders it is time to start doing classic recaps again. I decided that cleaning up all the placeholders was more important than doing recaps in this section

During my Christmas break I did only 2000s recaps because I did so many 90s recaps last summer. Well I have decided to jump back into the 90s. I'm am going to jump into a season I didn't jump into last summer. Season 16. I did Seasons 14, 15, 17, and 18 but not 16. Here comes my first Season 16 recap. I changed my format up a little bit for my Season 38 recaps. I am going to continue with the same format I have used in all of my classic recaps. I am going to carry some changes from my Season 38 recaps into my classic recaps
