Back in 2014 I was chatting to a fellow wrestling fan. She said she had only started watching WWE that year. "Why's that?" I asked "I was a WCW girl. If Manchester City went bust would they all start supporting Man United?!" I got her point 🙂 Brilliant video Andy. I honestly think they'd like us to forget WCW entirely now.

The fans tuned in to Invasion 2001 because they expected surprises from these big wrestlers that didnt sign with WWF. It did end up being a pretty good PPV, but it would have perhaps continued going that direction if they had shown up at the event. So... you're kind of spinning a narrative of your own here. People half-expected them to show up. I know this, because I wasnt a full-blown in the know fan back then and me and my friends expected as much.

My thing that WWE seems to want to forget about WCW: WWE's "win" in the Monday Night War was as much a factor of WCW's self-destruction as it was anything else. Unfortunately, WWE wants to forget this because it undercuts Vince's seeming genius...even as he is being exposed more and more as someone who was less a genius and more an egotist.

one of the biggest lies wwe tells to this day is that ' raw is the longest running weekly episodic television show in history. not really, Raw did not air on the night the first nitro did on September 4, 1995.

now with poaching hulk hogan from awa, you have to consider that he was in wwf from '79-'81. the hulkster got sacked by vince sr because of his cameo in rocky 3. flash forward to '83, vince jr takes the reigns, hogan's rehired & becomes the biggest name in wrestling history.

For real NWO vs NWO was probably my favorite era in wrestling 3 giants taking over and sting fighting them off alone then he got his own crew to fight them off when they got stronger in numbers, it was a classic war in wrestling, and then they had the first creative game that everyone else that followed copied

Vince was a heel in 1993 when he led an invasion in to the USWA in a feud with Jerry Lawler. And if you watch his promos from then it’s the Mr. McMahon character without a doubt. So not sure I’d say he copied Easy E.

the funny part is that proves that 'Mr. McMahon' was less of a character and more of how he really was :P

Sorry, Andy, I'm going to tell you how RIGHT you are with the #1 Spot! Never thought of this before, but the Buy Out had the same effect on true WCW fans as Black Saturday. Hell, we were already teetering just dealing with Russo!
