Booker T talks about how the decline of WCW will affect new talent and the differences between the WCW and "WWF" locker rooms. I recorded this interview myself for the KZfaq audience it is no rip off

The funny thing is, the Invasion ppv was actually a pretty damn good buyrate, one of the best of the entire year if I'm not mistaken.
@omegaman64943 жыл бұрын
Best of the year besides Mania. Imagine the buyrate if instead of Booker, DDP, Rhyno and the Dudleyz as Team WCW in the main event you had Hogan, Hall, Nash, Scott Steiner and Sting

0:44 The Invasion angled failed because it lacked WCW main eventers. The Alliance was also headed by borrowing WWF stars like Stone Cold and eventual WWF mole Kurt Angle. The Invasion was actually entertaining on a high level but failed as a true WWF vs WCW angle. DDP and Booker T were awesome to see but it sucked big time that the WCW/ECW Invasion PPV roster had only 2 WCW guys for the Inaugural Brawl. It didn't help that DDP wasn't used right and they were downgrading Booker T's presence on PPV to him and Shane vs Rock at Unforgiven. If the WCW/ECW Alliance had so much as simply Sting and Flair, or Sting, Flair and the big ticket Goldberg.. it would've been successful. Booker T, DDP, Sting, Flair and Goldberg would've been perfect vs. Austin, Angle, Jericho, Taker and Kane at the Invasion PPV.. and getting the nWo afterwards in 2002 would've been fine.

Me and a friend went to a WcW house show one time here in New Mexico, and when Booker T came out my friend tried to high five him, but missed and slapped him hard right in the face. It was an accident of course, but Booker T looked legitimately pissed as he said "What the fuck man?" hahaha we still laugh about it to this day, 10+ years later

4:10 There's a proper insight into the mindset of a wrestler. They NEED good competition to have the drive and motivation to do their best, enjoy their work and please the fans. SOOOO when someone like John Cena or Miz is champion, when they haven't done their time and learned the business, and neither can wrestle, it doesnt encourage young talent to come to the WWE, and the old guys get demoralised by it. Hell, Rock even said he never wanted to wrestle Cena. Vince should listen to the veterans

Invation didn't work because Vince didn't really want it to work. For one thing the ECW aspect should have come much later. WCW should have won at "Invation" (as they did) but as a result got there own show (WCW SmackDown maybe) then down the line have ECW star rezent this and turn them into an nWo type group and attack both sides.

The invasion angle failed because it was rushed and the guys that you wanted to see, didn't have to wrestle because they could sit back and collect checks from Time Warner. Triple H gets hurt and there is no more 2 man power trip angle and Sting doesn't want to wrestle as hard as someone like the Undertaker.
