>People tell me Vince Russo killed WCW
>Read "Death of WCW"
>The death of WCW had nothing to do with Russo
Why did people lie to me? Is it just a meme?
>Russo costing them a third of Nitro's revenue with 1 decision and instigating a bunch of racial discrimination lawsuits didn't help kill WCW

If WCW was profitable they wouldn't have needed to be marks.

They didn't want wrestling on their network - period.
WWE Narrative
>They booked 3 hours of tv that everybody agreed sucked, put belts on old dudes and wasted cruiserweights
Reality
>They lost a lot of money and while they may have been on the cusp of turning a corner, the network didn't want them anymore.

Weird how that's the WWE narrative but that's what they are doing now

And if the product was successful there would have been plenty of prospective buyers looking to purchase a lucrative business - period.
>>2625579
But there were buyers. Vince's acquisition was always shady
>>2625630
This.
Buyers that were offering tenfold what Vince was.
Vince must've had some stooges within WCW to pull this off.
>>2625579
There were buyers. Fucking Bischoff was trying to buy it.
Am I the only one who thinks this book sucks? on nearly every page there is falsehoods, inaccuracies and opinions asserted as fact.
>>2625480
Russo was the nail in the coffin. The coffin was made by bischoff, hogan and based nash

smarks are brain dead sheep -- also hypocrites and idiots. they cant think for themselves and just join in with what people are doing. just like their chants and boos, theyre not thinking because they cant -- theyre just following along like herd of sheep running off a cliff

Get out of the wrestling bubble

The original person said nobody wanted to buy it.
We explained that there were people who wanted to buy it.
Yes, they lost interest once there was no TV deal which made the thing worthless but how hard is it to read 3 posts and not understand the conversation?
>>2625524 my original post
>>2625630 the post these people were talking about (also me)
There's 15 replies that arent your comment. 2 minutes of reading and you'd see what's being said. How underage are you?

>instigating a bunch of racial discrimination lawsuits
To be fair that lawsuit was a long time coming
WCW was doing fucked-up racist shit onscreen and off-screen long before Russo joined it
LMFAO @ Harlem Heat starting off as actual slaves in chains with a Southern plantation owner. I don't know who put up with more shit in their career between Booker T and Mark Henry
