Just curious, did you watch them in their era? or are you basing your opinion on watching them after they were already done? I think the argument is closer than some might think, but DX and nWo get a lot more credit in my book because of how innovative they were.

To be fair, the idea of the NWO that Bischoff had came from Japan and he brought that idea to the US. The problem came is that the NWO became a curse than a blessing when they had more people than they really need.
Keep an eye on the greatest referee of all time, Randy "Pee Wee" Anderson. Dude puts in more work than the wrasslers.

that underdog attempted comeback goddamn
Innovative? Eh they just brought the idea of a heel stable against the promotion to the US , however it was a fantastic Angle that should have ended at Starcade 97
But dx sucks no so much.
Sanjuro, get into this hug.

Cactus Jack vs. Sting
- "Pinfalls allowed anywhere on the Gulf Coast..." So does that mean if they go beyond that, they stop counting?
Already this match has a big fight feel. It's like the previous matches didn't mean a thing...wait, fuck
Sting and Dude Love don't even get in the ring, they just start on the ramp. Foley sends Sting to the concrete outside the ring, and does a fucking sunset flip from the apron to the floor. Bear in mind there's no fucking mats on the outside for whatever reason.
There's too much going on to go over the match so far with a finetooth comb, but they're going back and forth with each other outside the ring with suplexes, using the guardrails, etc. Sting eventually sends Mankind back inside the ring, where Commissioner Foley hits a clothesline to stop the momentum. Sting works himself up for a comeback, but Mrs. Foley's Baby Boy puts an end to it and clotheslines both of them to the outside.
Noelle's Dad does the signature "chair to the gut, then the back" spot, and Sting finally gets a breather when he suplexes Mick onto the floor. Again, there's just too much going on to really do a play-by-play, but that's a good thing! The match feels like both guys really wanna massacre each other. The match ends with Sting hitting a clothesline (boy they sure love those), then another clothesline from the top rope into a pin. Feels weird seeing matches end with such mundane moves, but it's a sign of the times I guess.

Beef loved WcW all along.
Ah, so Jim Sterling forced you. Ok, all good then.

When did Rey start dropping into and rebounding off the middle rope to gain momentum instead of hitting them properly? I liked when he did that because it looked a lot better for someone his size. I don't remember seeing him do it in WCW.

The Get My Shit In Generation is here to stay, brother.
I can't!
Disco Inferno is taking on GLACIER and Bill Goldberg is going to no sell someone from the WCW Power Plant!

Gonna take a quick snack break before the next match, which I believe involves Richard Rude.
Don't worry, this'll be the last WCW I watch for a looooooong while.

WCW was pretty garbage growing up. Even WWF Superstars would best it.
On the weekend though, WCW did their thing. in the end Shotgun Saturday Night was basically that thing you either stayed up by accident or woke up too late and watched some bullshit.
Some of the best matches in WCW history

The War Games collection on the Network is fantastic. Watch this Beef
If the house show theatrics were anything to go by, I'd say yes. If it wasn't already the plan, I imagine the crowd reactions would've cemented it as a good idea in Trips' mind.

Foley and Sting brought this PPV out of a slump, but there's 90 minutes left according to this timer and there better be some good shit coming up.
*hits Tarpit over the head with BronsonLee*
Goldust is up there too.
It's probably just me being me, but I think if you're going to watch the good War Gamez matches, you should just commit to the full events. It's always more fun with some context and immersion.
But again, probably just me being a weirdo.

Let it go, Fox318!
Actually, I want to hear someone else's thoughts. I'm too lazy to come up with something myself. >_>
Avoid the internet.
Only introduce the TV Title.
Work regionals until niche is found.
Slowly introduce the primary belts.
Blow the rest of the money on Mojo Rowley.
invest in a time machine because wrestling has been ruined years ago
Trips will never realise this.
- Bálor will do the gun fingers at Triple H on RAW
- The crowd will pop
- ???
- Profit

I have the feeling he migjt be done trying to put "new" talent over in ring. I think we'll inly see HHH for fights against part timers and, except for gis retirement match, that'll probably go to Seth too.

Triple H will cut a promo of how the Demon King is not the King of Kings.
Balor gets a shirt calling himself the true king.
They have a underwhelming Wrestlemania match with no heat that will kill some crowd reactions for Balor.
Triple H hibernates until it's time for the Nakamura feud.

Put a focus on Cruiserweights and treat them well. Don't sign up anyone with a guaranteed contract or make sure that in that contract they don't have a say in booking decisions. Make sure to have a good TV deal. Also, be on good terms with Japanese, Mexican, and British wrestling promotions so that they can send talent and send talent over there too. Never sign Russo or anybody in creative involved with the new WCW.

Beef is about to see or is in the middle of, the Rick rude/Steamboat iron man match, which is an A++ match.
