Was this the final nail on the coffin, which killed the WWE and

Nope, the purchase of WCW was.

Nope. It got people invested in it and that's a good thing.

That was actually the moment that almost saved wrestling, the final nail in the coffin was him getting injured and giving up the belts

Pro wrestling has been completely dead for 15+ years

The end of WCW was the end of wrestling

Even if I was still a WWF/WWE guy, I can't deny by having a rival wrestling company that was owned by a billionaire who loved wrestling and owned a TV station that would push his product and do it's damndist to be the best is something that is painfully lacking

Now we have millionaire monopoly Vince against a bunch of small time guys who will never have the tools like WCW did. You can send the whole top tier roster of WWE to TnA and Vince will just put together a new product that will make TnA look like a bunch of retards

Being a wrestling fan today is about acceptance. Accepting that wrestling as a sport and form of entertainment in it's highest form is no more and now we program ourselves to charge for this form of "Special Olympics"

Thanks a lot Triple H. Fuck You.

>>1555578

Yes it did. It showed fat marks that Vince will listen to them if they scream loud enough. Now we're over run by vanilla midgets

Ratings were actually high during this run. It wasn't until they gave the shieldettys the ball that they said, "We're gonna kill pro-wrestling now and there's no one who can stop us!"

>actually believing this
people may forget that ROH is owned by Sinclair Broadcasting. They have money but don't want to spend it. Look at how long it took them to get some decent lighting for the tv shows.

>>1555834
That's fine and dandy but you need a Ted Turner who LOVES wrestling, it's why ROH went no where

>>1555578
Wrestling died when the PG Era started

>>1555666
NXT is the best WWE TV since peak Smackdown in RA
