Shame too. WCW really did have some very cool ideas match wise. I'll never forget the huge Wargames cages they had. Hell I remember that one year they had multiple chambers in the cages too. You had them climbing up the chambers as it went and each one had various weapons, etc.

Their production values when they hit it big were pretty damn good too. Course then Bischoff had to go and spend tons of money on guaranteed deals and bring in all the old WWE guys.

Vince got rid of Zack Ryder's Take Care Spike Your Hair shirt because it had SPIKE on the t-shirt.

Nah. Really, besides World Class, no company in the history of wrestling deserved to go out of business more than WCW.

Oh I won't deny they deserved to go out of business. They ran it like shit post Bischoff taking over. From a business standpoint I honestly couldn't believe how long it lasted. However before that the early years pre Bischoff had some great matches and interesting matches.

Post Bischoff?

The reason why Warner sold it was most likely due to WCW's operating budget due to expensive sets, high salaries, bloated roster, sagging ratings, poor PPV buy rates.
Thanks to Easy E. He achieved his goal of beating McMahon, but like any race, it's a marathon not a sprint. And the load was "blown" 1995-1997.

Bischoff was part of the problem. Kiss agrees.
