Getting Noticed By Management
one of the most criticized angles in history and in this forums was the Invasion angle that the WWE (then WWF) presented us back on 2001 after both ECW and WCW were purchased by Vince.
it went on from like march or june 2001(depending how you look at it) till november 2011, it began with shane "buying" wcw right from under vince till team wwf beat team alliance in a 5 on 5 survivor series elimination match.
now in all this angle we got the arrival of differente wrestlers to the WWF, austin turning on the wwf, booker t vs the rock, austin vs angle, the Undertaker vs DDP, shane and stephanie vs vince etc.
it might feel like a flop because the biggest WCW names werent a part of the angle... personally I loved every single moment of it at the time, it was all about brand loyalty, how these outsiders came in trying to destroy the company trying to take over and destroy the company and the wrestlers we all loved and at the end they were defeated when Angle double crossed austin and allowed the rock to finally put the alliance to rest and out of business.
but my question is.....did you like or hate the invasion angle at the time....and has your opinion changed now after 10 years?
bear in mind i was 11 at the time of the angle so it felt real to me then....
