It's goes further with the Flock and ministry stuff. The original version of the Flock was Ravens nest in ECW. And they infamously did a angle where Raven and the Nest crucified the Sandman. This angle was infamous because Kurt angle was in attendance at the event and was negotiating with ECW to join the company but upon witnessing it left the building and signed with WWF. A few years later The ministry of Darkness does the same thing to both Stone Cold and Stephanie McMahon

I'm still disgusted by the simultaneous exploiting addiction storylines of Scott Hall and Hawk respectively that were both happening in WWF/WCW in 1998. I understand why it was not on the list because it's difficult to prove that one company copied the other, but one or both companies had to be ware of what the other show was doing.

I legit don't think HIAC was copied from WCW WarGames. Yes a giant steel cage match can be considered similar but the actual WarGames match and the actual HIAC match are total different match types. Also I've been mentioning for years that Randy's RKO NWO inspired shirt was copied from the NWO and I swear I'm not the only person that noticed too unless I actually am

How did no one notice that Randy's shirt was a take on the nWo classic designed shirt? I think only a complete fool could have missed that, it was like when that fool Velveteen Dream had his dumb "oVa" shirt. I always had a bad feeling about him and everything that was found out of him shortly after, it was of zero surprise.
