    AOL/Time Warner Merger: The Last Nail in WCW's Coffin

    What happened to Yahoo, Laura Ashley, Blackberry, Nokia? In business if you have one mis step it can ruin the entire company. It is very hard to save a business. Especially one that is losing millions and millions in 2 years. Bischoff loves to talk about AOLTW taking away the distribution...

    Is a lack of teams actually hurting character development and ratings in WWE?

    There are many non-Russo stables that have not thrived. The Cabinet The Corre League of Nations 3MB The Alliance King Booker's Court The Hart Dynasty Mexicools The New Breed The Spirit Squad X-Factor 3 Minute Warning The OPs argument is that because there is lack of...

    Is a lack of teams actually hurting character development and ratings in WWE?

    No. If this were the case then Russo's WCW and TNA angles would have thrived. Doesn't matter as long as it makes sense, and the people that are in it are interesting. We have a few of those. If you want storylines in the way of a Marvel shared universe that's why Survivor Series exists (which...

    Enter Vince Russo: WCW Fights For Every Breath

    Never stated those were great angles either. Those were bad as well. Russo is not the only individual who has had bad ideas. He does happen to be associated with the worst of them though. As bad as WWE can get at times, it was nothing compared to what Russo brought to the table. Or are we...

    Enter Vince Russo: WCW Fights For Every Breath

    I feel Vince Russo would be quite good writing for reality TV. He knows each and every point reality TV needs to hit in 12 to 20 episodes so people can get emotionally invested. For wrestling though, he was awful. I agree with his point that the match is not as important as the segment of...

    Why Brock Lesnar Should Be Universal Champion Until Wrestlemania 34

    Because you're all over the place. You talk about his booking as a sign to casuals that he is the one to dethrone Lesnar yet his current booking is not an indication of that which you admit but then go back to Wrestlemania 31 which happened 2 and a half years ago as evidence that Reigns will...

    NBA Offseason

    A potential trade scenario is Aldridge (he makes more than Irving), Green, and their 2018 first round pick for Irving and Shumpert. The Cavs have reported interest in both Aldridge and Green, so it's not an impossible scenario for the Spurs.

    Could Brock Lesnar be UFC bound again?

    UFC says the story is false: http://mmajunkie.com/2017/07/brock-lesnar-ufc-return-rumors-usada-testing-pool-jeff-novitzky/amp I really don't think Lesnar is interested in joining UFC again. Maybe in one more match while be signed with WWE, but it looks like this was just another twitter...

    Chester Bennington of Linkin Park Found Dead

    Apparent suicide. 41 years old. I was just listening to that song Lying From You this morning on my way to work. Sad. RIP.

    The Finger Poke of Doom: The Next Step In WCW's Destruction

    You're looking at it like Vince Russo would. One week of data is not enough evidence to back up your claim. Also, I'm not sure where you get your data, but the ratings did drop in March. They were at a 5.0 by the end of January, but by early March they dropped to a 4.4 ending the month with a...

    Best Individual Seasons of Television

    I took it as best individual seasons of all television, not best individual seasons of television shows. Could be wrong though.

    The Finger Poke of Doom: The Next Step In WCW's Destruction

    It was a short sighted move by WCW. By May of that year WCW had gone from nearly 9,000 fans at the house shows to 6,000 fans, their PPV buyrates went from 400,000 to 170,000, and their ratings went from a 5.0 to a 3.0. All within a span of 5 months. Compare that to the WWF at the time which had...

    Why Brock Lesnar Should Be Universal Champion Until Wrestlemania 34

    His current booking which refers to losing to Samoa Joe, and Braun Strowman. In fact, out of everybody, Roman Reigns is the least likely to defeat Lesnar, given that he has not beaten Lesnar, he has not beaten Joe, and he has been barely able to survive against Strowman. So I don't know where...

    Paige: The Biggest Bust In NXT History

    The definition of "bust" is someone who was highly touted that didn't meet expectations. People can mention names like The Ascencion, Bo Dallas, Tyler Breeze, Adam Rose, etc., but they were really supposed to fit a niche role within the company. Paige received high praise in NXT, and big things...
