What got me was all the people in the arena booing the mention of WCW in 2014. What the hell.

They've trained the fans to believe WCW = bad with years of one sided documentaries.
thats what happens when you control the narrative for so long.
what a missed opportunity. the story of the last 15 years i guess.

are they doing a MNW on the invaison?
i wonder who he considers the "wcw guys"
is jericho a wcw or wwe guy to him? because he came in as a wcw midcarder and instantly from his first promo was ready to be in the main event. but with how long it actually took i'm guessing he saw him as a "wcw guy" so therefor wasn't worthy of an actual push until they really had to.
jericho, eddie, benoit, and booker t were all ready the instant they set foot inside the wwe. it was a shame how long it took for some of them to break the glass cieling.

Watching Kane's botch on raw never gets old.
All the makings of a dog fart dp scene.

The rumor has always been that Kanyon was gay/bisexual and that people in WWE didn't like him because of it. But other people have said that the gay thing was just a publicity stunt he pulled later on. Then he went back and said he really was gay. He had mental issues and tried to commit suicide in 2003. He was bi polar.
Also wtf, of all the guys that came in, HUGH FUCKING MORRUS being the one they pick to head up the developmental programs will never not blow my mind. You know who would have been way better of a trainer from that group? God damn Kanyon. Or Chavo. Or Booker. Or ANYONE that wasn't one of the Natural Born Thrillers.
The biggest problem with the invasion was that all the top WCW guy had guaranteed deals of large amounts of money and all they had to do was stay at home.
Who would leave that to make less money at WWE. It also didn't help to see how they booked DDP when he decided to come in. A stalker of the Undertaker's wife.
Most just waited it out till the WWE called them to get the money they wanted.

hey man, I think Sean O'Haire could've taught rookies a thing or two
I remember the days where Nintendo Power got me fucking HYPE for new N64 games. The library in my elementary school used to subscribe to it and keep it on reserve for when the class would visit. Call it tacky, but there's something really charming about that cover (and the many, MANY covers just like it)
They really dropped the ball on O Hare and Jindrack. I was a huge fan of Planet Stasiak as well.
So of all the guys that came in from WCW during that invasion story, obviously Booker T ended up the biggest star, but who was second? Only guy that did anything off the top of my head is Hurricane Helms.

The WCW guys just never had any respect in the storyline. They were glorified jobbers for the entire invasion.
Vince has an ego

And that's the problem. It could've been better if Vince stopped treating the company he purchased like dirt.
I mean I get it. They tried to put you out of business for years and now this is your opportunity to piss all over them. It just was not the right way to go about things. It would've made some money if done properly.
The OST sounds like it was filtered through farts, return immediately.
I just finished Austin vs Mcmahon 2 on WWE Rivalries, and it called my attention the episode when Stone Cold was suppose to lose against Lesnar in a qualification match for KOR.
At that time WWE wasn't broadcasted in my country so I didn't get everything as it was.
My question is related to CM Punk's walkaway because is very similar to Austin's case (both were unsatisfied with the creative way of their characters and both just left).
How was the crowd responding to this situation? It was like every show people just started to chant AUSTIN! AUSTIN! like they do with CM PUNK chants?
I think its very strange how the company handled this situation in comparison with CM Punk's leaving the WWE. Austin left just hours before RAW and Vince told to the WWE Universe that he left. Punk left WWE and they gave him Benoit's treatment (LOL we don't know that guy who the hell is he)

Look at the last wwe show in Atlanta.
Vince killed the popularity of wrasslin by pissing on the grave of wcw and making his product more suitable for a political campaign .

It was different. For starters, WWE buried Austin. Even Jim Ross implied that Austin had mental issues and he's not his personal psychiatrist.

Abysses vs Diabetes tonight, if abyss loses, he gets his foot cut off.
Which wrestlers gonna get injured and be out for 6 months this week?
Which Referee called in this week because he has diarhea?
Maury reveals who is the father of Madison Raynes 8 kids.
Bram still pissed off because his wife makes more money in NXT than he does at TNA. Will he abandon TNA for WWE to be with his wife charolette?

LUCHA TIME
In Jerichos second book he admits that he wasn't ready at the start (in a roundabout way) - WCW style of planning matches etc. was very different and there was an adjustment period. They probably all would have been 100x better if there was an NXT style system to get them used to WWE style before they got on TV (even for a few weeks).
Buff Bagwell match is what really killed WCW guys
