Did the NWO actually kill WCW or is that just a meme created by smarks?
I don't think it killed WCW but having all these different factions took the luster out of it. Should've only been one nWo.
It was too much of a good thing that had negative consequences in the future.
Between the growing member numbers, high contracts, and their ability to manipulate the backstage area and book their own segments, it caused untold problems.
Most of the financial stuff indirectly hurt the rest of the roster, causing a divide and lack of attention to the smaller guys and hurting their drive to continue in the copy.
The large roster and exposure cause them to become too shown and hogged most of the air time. This fatigued fans and hurt overall viewership.
Their booking was terrible. Most matches ended in DQ, and while it was an era where heels were booed and these actions made sense to them...when if happens Everytime regardless of the Heroes, the fans couldn't take it.

Just a meme made by smarks. They were more over than Rock and Austin when they came back to WWE. The crowd cheered when Hogan took a hammer to the back of Rock's head who was a babyface at the time. That's why Vince eventually split them up and turned Hogan face, they were too over.

That's less to do with the nWo and more to do with Hulk forever being God in WWE. All those 20-35 year old fans shitting on Rock and embracing Hulk at Mania was beautiful.
no, it was Roman Reins

Wolfpac were cool but shouldn't have been associated with the nWo

It's actually a meme created by WWE. Watch the NWO's debut, the WWE commentators say this.
NWO didn't kill WCW, but the attitudes each of these three guys had didn't do any help.

wouldn't surprise me if they sold more nWo t-shirts than Austin 3:16

it was the fall of nwo that killed WCW. same way WWE nearly died when they turned stone cold heel.
>>1784369
The NWO was a bubble.

Bret and also Bret joining the nwo 2000 helped kill wcw

What is that pose by Hogan and Hall meant to be?

the parent company killed wcw because the only guy that wanted it was ted turner. when they force his ass out the door, it was game over. the rock and stone cold wouldnt have been able to save it.
